About this property

♛ 539 Bay St ⁀➷ Luxury Downtown 2BDR Lake View Penthouse Condo steps to Beach!

Occupancy # 6 Guests (Adults & kids)

You really can't beat this location for access to the best of Traverse City.

What a beautiful setting. This is the perfect place to experience quintessential Northern Michigan. 300 feet from West Grand Traverse Bay, you're steps from the sand, the fire pit, and the million-dollar views can't help but create a beautiful time and experience. We're excited to host some beautiful memories for you.

539 Bay Street is the newest addition to Traverse City's celebrated waterfront. It's not just the property itself that makes this condo special, but the location! Being walking distance to everything the downtown area has to offer, and centrally located to get anywhere else easily with a short drive, 15 minutes from the Great Lakes Equestrian Festival, steps from the Open Space where all other festivals host their attractions, 5 minutes from Meijer Supermarket, and nearby much more means you'll always have work, play or the in-the-mix setting of your deck at your fingertips.

Note: Daily cleaning turnovers are not included.

Locate your room (based on W - being the entrance on the left side of the building if you're facing the water, E - being just to the right of the firepit - then 1xx is the ground floor, 2xx is the 2nd floor, and 3xx is 3rd floor) and enter your individually allocated code (then hit the checkmark), and you're in! Your custom code will work the duration of your stay providing access to both the front door and your condo.

Welcome to 539 Bay Street!

Clean and great location
Check in is easy and the location was great! Room shades were not very dark and the walls were thin, so the bedroom got bright and loud (being on a busy road) early in the morning, about 6 AM. There were earplugs available, though. We did not have our bottle of complimentary wine, but requested it and it was promptly delivered. The condo was very clean and the table was set beautifully. There were several checkout requests, which might be common with other VRBO properties, but I was not expecting because of the amount of cleaning fees charged. We were asked to strip the beds, start laundry, start the dishwasher and take out the trash. Loved the location!

Fantastic condo on the Bay!
This is a wonderful property right on the West Bay. Our family had a great time in Traverse City and staying at this location. The property was one of the cleanest we've ever stayed in. The property managers were very attentive and helpful. No issues whatsoever. If you come with more than one car as we did, just park on Bay Street right in front of the building, no problems. This is an awesome listing from VRBO. Guaranteed you'll enjoy.

Great stay, pics are 100% accurate
Great stay, really enjoyed the location. Four of us stayed and it was the right size. Only complaint is that the code they gave us didn’t work and the phone kept going to VM. Eventually did we did get in touch and were able to check-in. Would recommend this place and we will stay again!
