The condo was perfect for our family of 6! It was clean and well kept, had everything we needed. Great location, 2 minute walk to the coffee shop and bike rental. We had solid communication from the host and would not hesitate to stay here again.
Awesome property in a great location. Easy walk into town and close to great restaurants and the library. Excellent for kids with all the amenities- perfect if you’re traveling in by plane with little one!
This place was ideal for family to get away. Well appointed, nicely decorated and great location. Would recommend to anyone looking to venture around Traverse City.
We had a great stay here. We enjoyed the place, found it exactly as expected, and were able to enjoy biking around the area from this location. We also explored downtown and other parts of the area, and we found this location to be ideal for exploring Traverse City.
This VRBO was so comfortable and was in a great location. Also, I wish my house was as clean as this VRBO was! Perfect place to stay! Will recommend to my friends!
Our stay was great at the townhouse. Great spot to homebase out of for our family as we enjoyed Traverse City. The loft was a perfect touch for the kiddos. Thanks for a great experience!
This was perfect for our family for a weekend. It was close to downtown. We came in for snowshoeing and wineries and had enough space for us and was a good location.
We enjoyed our stay at this cozy, immaculate, and well appointed condo. Everything we needed and more was provided. Seamless check in and out. The information notebook was very helpful. Communication with hosts was good. Very highly recommend. Did I mention that it was super clean?’
Very nice condo. Decorated nicely. We appreciated that there are 2 couches in the sitting area. Some places only have 1 which isn’t as comfortable when you have more than 2 people. Well-stocked which we appreciated! Just a few minutes drive to downtown Traverse City. Close to the Filling Station restaurant.
My friends and I traveled to Traverse City for a weekend away and this was the perfect place to stay. It was close to so many places and it was a great space to play games, cook dinner and hangout. The space was cute, clean and perfect for the 4 of us.
The Hosts thought about all the “little” things a guest would need during their stay. Well stocked with supplies. They even labeled the light switches! Thanks for a great stay!
Great location. Very clean and had everything we needed. Kitchen is well appointed. AC works well. Small but comfortable. Appreciated all the extra towels.
This property is exactly what is displayed. 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths - excellent. We were able to park and put our bicycles in the garage. We rode numerous bike trails from this property and we were able to drive to the lake within 5 minutes. Really great location, clean and quiet. Nice balcony too.
Highly recommend this property. Just the right amount of space for 5 people. The lofted area perfect for our 19 year old with 2 twin beds up there. Upon arrival the property was spotless and well stocked with essentials (even Q-tips in the bathroom). The air conditioning cranked and kept place cool. Great little coffee place a stone’s throw away. We went every day! We found location prime to get to downtown TC and Glen Arbor where we kayaked. This is a foodie town! Loved it! Only drawback to this property was our Voyager van could not fit in spotless garage.
This property was amazing! Perfect for a family of four (two young adult children). The interior seemed updated, fresh, clean, and extremely comfortable. The owners thought of everything to make this cozy home extra relaxing. Plus, the location was terrific. We rented bikes from the bike store right around the corner and could easily ride bikes to downtown Traverse City, beaches, marinas, restaurants, and beautiful trails. We would definitely recommend this property to others and hope to return someday soon to explore more of Traverse City and Northern, Michigan.
