About the host
Hosted by Sean Way
My name is Sean Way and I was born and raised in Traverse City. I grew up in this house and work at a local construction company as a draftsman for over 25 years. I take great pride in this house and its amenities. I enjoy sharing it with people as they make life long memories with their friends and family just as I have.
Why they chose this property
It is as if time stood still here on our secluded, peaceful piece of paradise as the rest of the town has grown and been built up over the years. My family built this house in 1974 and I was born and raised here and absolutely love the area. My mother lived here for 45 years and this house was her heart and soul. She loved improving it over the years and especially enjoyed sharing it with the people around her.
What makes this property unique
The property is large and spacious with 2 lots that sit just above lake level. It’s on a quiet cove off the beaten path yet still close to everything town has to offer (8 miles to down town Traverse City). Bass lake is an all sports lake with not a lot of traffic, so it’s still very peaceful and relaxing. The lake is great for fishing, kayaking, or just boating around. With 3 kayaks, paddle board, canoe, and a paddle boat all included it is the true up north experience. We also offer a very nice pontoon boat you can rent with your stay.
