About Richard
I have been an active outdoors person all my life. I enjoy gardening, hikes, animal watching and many more outdoor activities.
Richard purchased this Cottage in 2007
Why Richard chose Traverse City
This property is one of the best in the area with many outdoor activities. Close to Traverse City and many tourist hot spots it can't be beat!
What makes this Cottage unique
I purchased this vacant property in 2005 and camped on it for 2 years on and off to get a feel for the land before I built on it. I believe the location of the cottage and its surrounding land makes it a great vacation spot for all.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay.
Betty Lybarger Jackson,Michigan
June 7-11 2018
We had a opportunity to stay at this home and it was breath taking.
We had six adults and two little ones. Never once were we ever in
Each other’s way.
If your looking for peace and quiet this is the place to be.
Everything is there all you need is your self and personal items.
There was more than enough kitchen supply’s and to be able to fix
dinner and be looking at the beautiful scenery was wonderful.
The layout of this home was very well thought out. Plenty of space for everyone.
We enjoyed having a Bon fire down by the Boardman river.
And the hot tub was really a plus. With all the beautiful scenery.
The master shower was a slice of heaven with a steam shower to go along with the beautiful shower.
Richard the owner was one in a million. Very nice man. A big thank
you Richard, for helping us get settled and making us feel so comfortable.
The only thing wrong was I had to leave.
We hope to be able to come back as soon as possiable.
Very secluded, beautiful and clean!
It was easy to find with google maps. It’s very secluded in a bush overlooking a stream you can kayak/canoe in. Richard was very accommodating with our arrival time and gave us a quick tour of the place. The house was clean and remains pretty new.
I would totally recommend this place to friends! Traverse resort golf courses were very much enjoyed!
Amazing place!!
We absolutely loved it here. I wish would could have stayed longer but work got in the way! Rick is great and helpful. My 11yo son had a soccer tournament in TC. The place is super close to the fields. We we let him have 3 boys sleep over Saturday night and they all loved it. They went fishing and we grilled out. Fantastic place and very well maintained.
Amazing...peaceful...hidden gem
My fiancé and i rented this cabin for our birthdays and the first day meeting Richard, her was very welcoming warm and courtesy. This cabin is amazing from the hot tub, ping pong table steam shower the fire pit to the fire place the amazing views and walkable area/trails. Just breathtaking. The entire cabin was very clean and came with great accessories. We highly recommend to couples and families. We will definitely be returning in the summer to enjoy more of the activities the cabin has to offer such as kayaking.
Relaxing escape.
Very nice and clean. Hot tub is big and the steam shower was a nice addition. Beautiful property!
Heavenly!!!
The most beautiful setting! Our family came up for the weekend, and it was way more than we expected! The scenery was unbelievable! The hot tub was wonderful!!!! We want to say Thank you Thank you Thank you-Richard!!!!!!
Location
Located on the beautiful Boardman River just min. away from historic downtown Traverse City. Many wonderful restaurants, wineries, golf courses, and shops just to name a few of the many things available to do and see in the area. Great boating and fishing, hiking and kayaking. We have the Cherry Festival in July, Horse show in July, Movie Festival after that and many, many events thru-out the spring, summer, and fall. And don't forget about the fall colors. There is no better place to see them than on the River! There is plenty of wildlife in the area, lots to do and see right in this beautiful cottages backyard! Enjoy a bonfire by the river and watch the night sky for northern lights and satelites!
