Excellent accommodations

This property is well cared for and truly has everything you'd need in a home away from home. No detail left undone. Kitchen is well stocked and super organized. Board games. Books. Water toys. Bikes. Fire pit ring. Outdoor seating. Fantastic location (walk or bike to quaint downtown and harbor). Tracy was very responsive and proactive. We absolutely recommend your lovely home and appreciate everything you did to make our stay special.

Lake Michigan Magic

Picture perfect location right on the beach. Property is very clean and organized to meet all your vacation needs, even with little ones (legos and other toys available so leave yours at home). Close to downtown Elk Rapids and short drive to Torch Lake, Lake Charlevoix, Traverse City! Hoping to reserve again for next summer.

8/10 Good

Great home right on the water with beautiful sunsets!

My husband, our baby and I just returned from this home and had a wonderful week. The house is just feet from the bay and there's plenty of private beach to relax or play. The best part of the home is the huge windows overlooking the water - from the kitchen and bedrooms. Delightful to look at! This house is located in Elk Rapids which is a charming one-stoplight town with a great public beach and playground for kids, but also close enough to pop into Traverse City for shopping or dinner. The photos are accurate as every night we enjoyed a beautiful sunset. The homeowner was extremely hospitable and very easy to work with. I'd say it actually sleeps 8 instead of 6. This was our first time using VRBO and we were very pleased!
