About this property

Baydream Believer Sum

Summary:
Baydream Believer

Adorable house with a little something for everyone! Our main floor offers bedroom 1 of 3 with a queen bed. Upstairs you will find the additional two small bedrooms, one holds a queen bed, and the second holds 2 twin beds (upstairs are narrow with a low overhead). Hardwood floors and many updates make this Cape Cod boast Northern Michigan charm. With the finished, heated, detached studio area, there is nearly 1,500 square ft of living space to enjoy. Sit next to the custom fire pit, under the dark sky while listening to the waves lapping at the shoreline only a couple of hundred feet away. Weather turn dark and gloomy? Enjoy a beverage on the covered back porch while you wait for the sun to come back.

Our detached "Squirrels Nest" area offers a wide range of very flexible uses, all designed for your best Northern Michigan experience in mind. Open the doors WIDE to the outside to breath in the fresh Bay air. This is a once in a lifetime chance to play pool, whilst staring out over Grand Traverse Bay! Within the Squirrels Nest you will find a ping pong / pool table, arcade game machines, TV with wifi streaming options, a large sectional, mini fridge, coffee station, and family games.

Washer and Dry on site, in the basement. Use caution, stairs are steep and deep.

**We do NOT have access to the shore line with our property. The beach across the street is private property and trespassers will be ticketed. We do have beaches very close, including the popular beaches at Elmwood Park, Roadside Park & Beach M-22, just north of Cherry Bend Drive and the West End beach in Traverse City.

**Home has exterior flood cameras for safety purposes

We sleep 6 in bedrooms.

Located on the popular M22 scenic highway! Perfect for a lazy Sunday drive or a site-seeing trip, M22 is 116.7 miles long and follows the Lake Michigan shoreline of the Leelanau Peninsula, making up a portion of the Lake Michigan Circle Tour. It also passes through the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Beautiful views and fun destinations along the way!

Please respect our neighbors by not trespassing at the water’s edge or on the docks in front of our home. We do have great beaches just down the road. We ask that when coming up from the beach that you rinse your feet and please enter the house through the back entrance.

Bad experience
Tv remote didn’t work, property Mgr didn’t care to attempt to fix. We left something behind, we knew exactly where we left it, big surprise, they could bother to return it. Outdoor cameras watching you sit on the back patio - Just not a nice place at all - Would not recommend staying here.

Good location, but on a busy hwy
I rented this cute house for my 86 year old mother, husband, 13 year old son and I. My son broke his arm 2 days prior. My son and husband could not come due to the nature of break that may need surgery. There is no way my whole group of 4 could've stayed comfortably, even though there are 6 places to sleep. The house is very tight. There are no closets. No dishwasher and only 1 bathroom. We liked the location, but M22 is a very well traveled, noisy road that does not quiet down much at night. For 2 females staying alone, it would have felt safer having an indoor lock on back door, as screen door does not shut properly. We appreciated the charm of the house. We did not go into the Squirrels Nest.

Perfect family getaway
The house and the squirrels nest are both as advertised on the site; very nice!! Both were well stocked with supplies and the bonfire pit with wood provided was an awesome way to spend the night relaxing under the stars. The squirrels nest was where we spent most of our time and it came in handy on one of our days where the weather wasn't ideal. The house is on a main road so there were cars driving by that interrupted the peaceful time around the bonfire but it caused no issues or disturbances in the house at night when trying to sleep. The address posted on VRBO's site was not accurate for us; read the details of the check-in email you receive for the correct address to input into your GPS.

The Perfect Get Away Weekend!
This place was perfect! This was the ideal place for my Fiancé’s 30th bday weekend. The squirrel’s nest and fire pit made for some great times playing ping pong and enjoying one another’s company right by the bay (what a view)! One thing I have to say the host does an amazing job of fully stocking the house. Literally everything you might need is at the house! Very nice to have. I was able to cook almost all of our meals in the kitchen. I highly recommend this cute cottage on the bay, you won’t be disappointed!
