Cool House and Beautiful Setting

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here for a girls’ trip and had a blast! The house if gorgeous! Well kept, clean, and lots of space. The deck is perfect for hanging out and enjoying the view of the lake. Close to food, groceries, and a quick trip to either Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, or wine country. I plan to return in warmer weather and take advantage of swimming in the sandy bottom lake!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the house because of it's uniqueness. It could have been better maintained on the exterior. The rental management staff were excellent and very helpful when needed. It was just my husband and myself and our dog so the bedroom layout was not an issue. Interior furnishings were adequate. The location and views were beautiful.

Not for children

Really love the way the property was laid out. The place could have been cleaner for the amount of money. Is definitely not a place for children. Stairs ,concrete and sharp corners everywhere. We did not have anybody handicapped with us but I'm pretty sure that it is not very friendly for those with handicaps either as there are stairs everywhere

Just okay. Not for young families

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice location on Long Lake. Beautiful view, very nice lake. The house is NOT a four bedroom. There are a lot of cement stairs within the house. Then stairs to each level of outdoor patio/deck. Grandkids got slivers every day from the dock. Needs some repair. Kitchen sink area was disgusting with old mildest caulk.

Awesome house , but it is a cottage.

Awesome house as pictured, but with a few things to know before going in: 1) Cleanliness - wife thought the ceiling fans and corners could have been a bit tidier/dusted. 2) Cleanliness - the house is on sandy soil and the floors are concrete, so even if you sweep there's going to be sand. Keep your shoes on. 3) AC - doesn't have it, but that will just force you to take advantage of the outdoors. 4) Stairs - this place is nothing but stairs, windows, and light bulbs. 5) Lake - great, in Aug it was warm enough for my kids who get cold much easier than other kids. Bottom is sandy, but wear water shoes. 6) Look/feel - looks and feels special. 7) Location - it's on a nice lake, but a 10min drive to everything else. The local restaurant/bar is 1mile+ away on a not-walkable route, so it's a drive. 8) 3br + 1 open additional sleeping area - only 6 people allowed. In any case, place was great for us! We enjoyed our stay.

Loved this gem!

We would definitely stay here again. Very cozy tucked in the woods with the most beautiful views. It was snowing a lot and we loved looking out the big glass windows and walking on the lake. The heated floors felt nice underfoot and the beds were super comfy. Location was great! Quick easy drive to Crystal for skiing and yummy dinners down the road at boones and Hofbrau. Only thing to note is there are many levels. My dad had a cane and got around fine but each space is a few steps up or down Only note I’d make is

First trip to Traverse City

Overall the VRBO was very nice. Lots of stairs which might pose a problem for some. I also think upgrading a couple of the kitchen appliances, coffee maker and toaster, are in order. Also suggest you upgrade the quality of toilet paper and provide a minimum amount of tissue paper. Beautiful location and great outside seating and access to lake.
