Beautiful property with lawn, patio (with lots of furniture) and beach on East Grand Traverse Bay. There were plenty of towels, pots and pans, dishes, etc. to feed our family. The two kayaks added to the fun. We grilled almost every night. Views of the bay are beautiful. Our family had a great stay. Close to all the amenities of Traverse City, too.

This 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house had just the right amount of room and lovely bay views for our family of 6 adults and 1 toddler. We enjoyed kyaking, swimming ,the sandy beach and fire pit .We had an issue with a broken shower faucet. I texted the host and she responded right away. The next day a plumber came and fixed it temporarily so that it would work for us the rest of the week.We had a great time and recommend this house.

The property is great and the Host was fantastic when the Air Conditioner quit working. Sent her a text stating that AC quit. Did this as we were leaving for a little shopping and dinner. Got a phone call back within about 20 minutes. She had a repair company out and it was fixed before we got back from dinner, on a Friday evening!

We had a great stay. We were in town for a Bachelorette wine weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better home base. Near enough to all of our activities- shopping, wine tasting, dining. Everything was clean, beds and couches were very comfortable. Any concerns were addressed very quickly by the owners. You can’t get a better view- one of our ladies was even trying to see if she could book for a family stay in the future. What a wonderful property!
