We stayed here during a family emergency and couldn’t have asked for a more comforting space. Soft beds, cozy fuzzy blankets, and amazing coffee we fell in love with. The host was incredibly responsive and kind — a warm, welcoming home when we needed it most.
The property was in a great location, easy to access, tidy, comfortable, and really everything we wanted for our stay. The host was super kind and responsive throughout too, which is really important to us in a vrbo stay.
The accommodations were cozy and the host was very welcoming. We appreciated the ammenities provided. The kid friendly dishes and games were an added bonus!
Easy to check in and beautiful accommodations. Right on the TART trail which was nice to ride into town. Very clean and cute apartment! Would recommend and use again!
Close to downtown, groceries and restaurants. Perfect space setup for two parties of two with bed and bath combos on each side of the condo. Kitchen was perfect for cooking dinner in. Loved the flower painting on the wall!!
Overall a great stay. A few items we resolved very quickly. The barn door on the guest bathroom is not very private, although I would definitely stay here again.
We (2 adults, 2 teens) stayed here for an evening during our trip up to the UP. Had a great dinner downtown and were to the apartment in a few minutes. Easy to check in/out and owner was very responsive!
We especially loved the decor and king sized beds in each bedroom. The property was well equipped and communication with the host was excellent. The property was 5 minutes from downtown and we were easliy able to find free street parking each time we visited the Cherry Festival. :)
The listing was very accurate for this condo. The location was incredible. We loved the immediate access to the TART trail, and it was a quick bike ride to get to Front Street or Boardman Lake. The condo was family-friendly, well stocked, and relatively quiet. The newer washer/dryer and fully stocked kitchen made it a great 'base camp' for exploring the area. Sleeping Bear, Leland, and Glen Arbor were less than an hour away. Hosts were incredibly receptive to feedback, questions, and recommendations. Overall, this was a good experience for our family.
This was our first time to the Traverse City area. The listing was exactly as pictured. It was a central location to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Torch Lake and Old Mission. The condo was very roomy and nicely decorated. We appreciated that it was stocked with cookware, supplies to cook with and loved the espresso maker. (Even though we brought our Nespresso). There was plenty of room for our family of 4. The communication with the owner was wonderful, he answered all my questions in a quick timeframe. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
The listing and photos are accurate, the place is clean and comfortable. All necessary items for a stay were provided- towels, glassware, utensils, laundry, shampoo, body wash, iron and iron board, etc. Also in a convenient location close to downtown TC. This is our second time staying in this unit and would recommend it. Brendan also communicated before we arrived and before checkout to make sure we knew what to do/had what we needed.
