This house is situated on a very large wooded lot with newly paved driveway, floral landscape and grassy front and back yard.

The Traverse City Tart Trail is a paved bike trail running from Acme (east side of town) through downtown TC and continuing all the way up to Suttons Bay with many restaurants, shopping, and beaches along the path.

We're right around the corner from Woodlands, which serves Moomer's ice cream! (voted best ice cream in America!) Even go back to the 1950s and stop in for a double-feature at the Cherry Bowl drive-in theatre or spend a rainy day playing laser tag or bowling.

In the mood for a day trip? Take a drive north and hop on the ferry to historic Mackinac Island, named one of the best islands in the world by the 2018 Conde Nast Traveler’s “Reader’s Choice Awards.”.

What a great area we have here up north! Outdoor recreation enthusiasts can choose from both summer and winter sports in abundance! When you need a break from the outdoors, you can take in a film at the downtown State Theatre (which was restored to it's former glory), tour a lighthouse, visit one of our many art galleries. Stroll through our pulsing downtown shopping district or stop into the shops, galleries and restaurants at the historic Grand Traverse Commons. Feel like exploring your inner-chef? We have a second-to-none farmer's market held every Wednesday and Saturday right in our own downtown. Carrying everything from flowers and produce to homemade soaps and local meats, this market features over 115 farmers ~ everything to make your dinner a culinary success.

Great location with cozy fireplace!

I stayed at this house with a group of ladies when we went to TC to cross country ski. The home has a beautiful back yard (view of woods) and great location near TC and VASA and TART trails. The living room is comfy with lots of seating and warm throw blankets. There was great communication with the owner during our stay. Apparently she charges an extra fee to use the fifth bedroom and ping pong area, but the she kindly waived this as we were not aware and we only used one bed in that area. This house is right on a relatively busy 2 lane road so you can hear traffic during the day from the front bedrooms, but it is quiet at night and there is a beautiful front porch.

Women’s weekend

We had a wonderful stay overall. Admittedly though we were a little grossed out that the comforter and shams are not washed between guests. 🤮 We also ran out of toilet paper in the main bath. There were not 3 rolls of toilet paper (just one full roll and one with just a couple sheets). Also the listing is misleading in that it states that it sleeps 14 but without explaining the additional cleaning and charge to use the basement.

We absolutely loved this home.Our family of 12, including our kids and grandkids had plenty of room. The house is a short drive to the downtown area and the State Park beach. The lot the home is on is huge, so the family had fun playing hot box, with lots of room to run. Check in was easy, with a lovely welcome basket of treats that kept the grandkids happy. Jenn was easily accessible with answers to any questions or concerns. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans, dishes, glassware, storage containers. Our only thought was with such a large group with different dietary needs/likes, a 2nd fridge would have come in handy to store juice/pop/water/beer and wine. Bathrooms were well stocked with towels, toilet paper and soap, as well as a hair dryer in each. Wi-Fi access was easy. The garage was filled with lots of stuff for the beach, from chairs to beach toys as well as 6 bikes.

check in process was great kitchen was big and roomy. the only reason we gave 4 stars for description is because it listed5 bedrooms and we were told there was an extra room locked in the basement if we needed it. so we thought this meant 5 gedrooms plus an extra.. but it was actually the 5th bedroom that is listed on the description.

Very good communication with owner. House was clean, well stocked and very comfortable. Beds were comfortable, porches were a nice place to sit and have dinner or coffee in the morning. Bikes in garage along with beach chairs were great to have available. House is close to major roadway to get you to all the sites. We had 7 people there and it never felt crowded. All couples had their own space. We had a great time. Highly recommend.

Thank God!

Finally! A place that was true to the description given. This home was definitely a beautiful, CLEAN, organized, and comfortable place to spend on our family vacation. We come up often to Traverse City and this was by far the best place we have stayed at. This place was fully stocked with just about everything you need to cook, clean or play, even bikes and beach supplies! Plenty of space and we had fun playing ping pong. The host responded quickly to any of my questions. I honestly have not one complaint or suggestion. This is a gem. Thank you again for the great stay!

Great location and house layout for extended family gathering

We had a lovely stay! Jenn was so great at communicating and helping us navigate this vacation. The house layout is perfect for big groups and extended family gatherings. We hosted a BBQ on the back deck while the kids played in the back yard! One word of warning, the road in front of the house cars go much faster than the posted speed limit. It was not disruptive in terms of sound, rather just had to keep a close eye on the young kids we had with us. We will be back! Loved the house and the location.
