About this property

Cedar Creek Cottage Idylic Setting | Close To All

Summary:
This charming cottage situated on an especially lovely large wooded lot is oozing with style and comfort, and is just perfect for a get- away. Your hub is serene and relaxing, yet close to town for dining, shopping, entertainment and beaches. The interior spaces are light and airy, and you can see and feel the property's natural abundance from every room.

ALL guests must be 25+ unless accompanied by a parent or guardian.

The Space:
2 Bedrooms- 1 Queen, and 1 Full, 1 trundle (twin)
Fully equipped kitchen for cooking meals, however, there is no dishwasher. Consider this an opportunity to bond with your travel mates in the old fashioned "you wash, I'll dry" kind of way. There is a large flat screen TV for streaming your own service accounts.

Guest Access:
Welcome to northern Michigan, where our wintertime weather can swing from glorious to ferocious in a flash. Each of our properties has snow removal service scheduled to plow with each snowfall amounting to at least 3 inches of snow. If the vehicle you bring is not 4-Wheel or All-Wheel Drive, please be aware of the potential risks accessing the property when snow is present.

The Neighborhood:
This off-the-beaten-path cottage sits on a private wooded lot, with a babbling brook flowing through the length of the back of the property. Beyond the stream is a large area for a fire pit and a small hiking trail takes you to the top of a beautiful overlook. The grassy side yard feels like it goes on for miles and pops with colorful flowers in the summer.

The local TART trail for long walks is less than a mile away. Empire Beach - on the shores of Lake Michigan - is a 30 minute drive from your door, as well as some of the most stunning hiking trails in the US. (See cover of Dec 2020 National Geographic.)

Amazing
Couldn’t ever find such a nice place that is so dog friendly! Molly, golden retriever, remembered it from last year. We’ll be back next year. Traverse is also cool this time of year.

A Quiet and Peaceful Traverse City Getaway
The property was very neat, clean and ready for a quiet stay. Pet bowls were provided for our miniature poodle as well as a leash and even a "doggie raincoat." The house had a "cottage" feel in addition to a warm charm and a nice backyard setting for evening relaxation. The rooms were nicely arrayed so as to add both privacy and accessibility to the service areas. A real treat!!

Sweet Little House
The house and properly are so cute. The house is small but could use a little better on the air circulation. We were there and it was rainy and the house seemed to be very damp (as were our clothes). I did speak with the management company and gave them feed back and hope that they can use it. I wish the weather would have been more cooperative so we could have done more outside by using the firepit, swing and other outdoor games. The wi-fi/internet/service is not the best (but you are in the woods). For our family needs, I think we'll need more bathrooms, but the space in the bathroom was adequate. We really enjoyed it despite some issues.

Very clean and quaint
The house is very clean and well decorated. The property is super nice with a killer back yard and flowers everywhere. It is extremely close to downtown Traverse and reasonably close to Leelanau, Suttons Bay, Lealand etc. Unfortunately, we had some power issues after some rain but the management team responded promptly and the electric company was there and servicing the transformer within an hour. Great location and great host...thank you!
