The location was really great. We were close to shopping downtown in Traverse with just a short drive. Great restaurants and great beaches were nearby. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The refrigerator was a little small but we made it work for the weekend. We would definitely stay here again.

Overall very nice unit with spectacular beach views and beach-side and pool-side location. Unit and complex were very quiet when we visited in fall. The decor and furniture in the unit shows a bit of wear and would benefit from some refreshing. But overall we enjoyed our stay, were comfortable and didn't have any troubles.

Nice view of bay just outside of TC

Great place for 1-2 people. Nice view of East Bay and close to Casino and Meijer. Close proximity for cross-country skiing trails. Very small refrigerator and no oven, but has microwave, DW, and small two-burner electric stove. Property manager Christian was quick to answer our questions. Would stay here again for weekend stay.

The only negative was the TV. As previous reviews had mentioned, after several minutes the connection to the streaming platform just shuts down and requires you to go through the set-up process continuously. I had hoped this issue would've been resolved because so many previous reviews had mentioned it, but it still exists. Everything else was great.
