Lovely setting....quiet and picturesque. Condo was small but comfortable, well appointed and immaculate. Concierge was available to answer a couple questions we had. We recommend this place. The weather was rainy the whole time we were on vacation so we didnt use the beach, but it looked nice.

Great place to stay!

This condo was perfect for myself and my two friends to enjoy a relaxing vacation together in Traverse City. We were able to enjoy the city for the day and then come back to relax on the balcony in the evening. The condo was close by Meijer and a gas station which made it perfect for our needs. It was also close by a restaurant and cafe that catered to my friend's food allergies. We will definitely come back!

Clean and quiet in a great location

My husband and I spent 4 nights here celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary, and we could not have been more pleased. The condo was very clean, and the location was quiet and lovely. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the balcony with a view of the Bay, and each night took the short stroll across the bridge to the beach and watched the sun set. We were pleased to see there was a boat rental on the beach that was just steps away, and had lots of fun kayaking around the Bay one morning.

A great place to stay

This was the second time we stayed here and it was every bit as nice as the first time. We especially appreciated the kitchen amenities (full-size fridge, induction cooktop, convection/microwave) - features often missing from short-term rental properties. It was very quiet here (February is a slow time) but that was just fine. We came to do some XC skiing, there are lots of places nearby to do it. We will definitely come back here.

Our time in TC

Our condo had a view of the East Bay and the property extended to the bay, allowing for a lovely, although cold and windy as it is February in northern Michigan, walk along the beach and through a nice wooded area. The condo was conveniently located just 10 to 20 minutes from shopping, movie theater, and family in Traverse City. It was a relaxing, quiet weekend with just the right amount of activity to celebrate our 33rd anniversary.

A couple of things

The condo was super clean. Thank you. However, the sofa is very uncomfortable. There are no ice trays. Also I have stayed in other condos in that complex. I have never been asked to strip the bed, or take out the trash.
