My family and I had a fantastic stay for two months beginning in October until just before Christmas. Mike and Kristal are great hosts, and were very responsive to the few issues that arose during our time there.
Given the length of our stay, the primary thing that stands out to us is how comfortable we were living in the home, as opposed to just staying there for a short vacation. The home is completely furnished, and the owners clearly put a lot of thought into making their guests comfortable. We were caring for our one-year-old son while we were staying there, and with a few specific baby things that we brought with us, we had everything that we needed.
Another thing that stood out to us is that the house is even nicer in person that it appears in its photos. It really came to feel like home by the end of our stay.
Finally, its location was just great. Our family had only one car while we were there, but it was never an issue because the walk into town was so short. Also, there are great places nearby, notably Frenchie’s and Bay Bread Co.
In short, a great place to stay in Traverse City.
