About this property

Quaint waterfront home with amazing beachfront entertainment area!

Small beachfront cottage just minutes from beautiful Traverse City, MI on M-22 (most recently recognized as the most scenic drive in the U.S.). 1,100 sq ft, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located directly on the west side of West Bay. Includes 2 full beds, 2 twin beds, and one queen bed. Max occupancy is 6 adults (plus 4 kids under 5). All rooms have black-out curtains. The breeze off the cool water is usually sufficient, however, there is central air now available to keep you comfortable if we have unusually hot weather.

Home has furnished kitchen, washer/dryer, wifi, cable, gas grille, and 2 kayaks with life jackets.

Large deck with expansive view of power island, which was once owned by Henry Ford and visited by Babe Ruth. The upper deck has a dining set and cozy outdoor furniture to fully enjoy the view!

The entertainment area on the beach (CLOSED NOV-APRIL/MAY depending on the spring weather) includes outdoor bathroom with shower, 2 42-inch TV's to enjoy your favorite movie or game beachside. The beach bar has ample outdoor furnishings to relax and enjoy cocktails with family and friends. The WATER CHANGES from year to year and we have a small beach to enjoy this year.
Leelanau peninsula, old mission peninsula, and Sleeping Bear Dunes are all nearby attractions that offer a variety of options to keep you busy.
