Loved our stay, so clean, updated everything on a beautiful lake. Would love to take advantage of kayaks etc in the summer months but as you can see from the picture it was leaf peeping at its finest. So glad to be able to come up for a two day weekend trip to recharge before going back to the grind down to city living.

We had a wonderful time on the lake. The cabin was pleasantly appointed and we wanted for nothing. Anything I thought would be great to have was there. A puzzle? Found it in a cabinet. Paddle board? In the garage! Tom was responsive, friendly, and welcoming! I would highly recommend this spot and hope to return again in the future!

Family Wedding

Staying here was far more comfortable than a hotel; and less money! Plus, we were able to have our furry friend with us all weekend. We fished and paddle boarded; all thankfully supplied by the homeowner! Thanks!

Month-long stay—GREAT

Loved our stay! Used to kayaks and pontoon boat, lots of golf short drive away. Communication with host was easy, prompt and pleasant. Would definitely stay here again, super relaxing. Michigan in September is unbelievable.

Good Little Home near Traverse City!

We came in for a short weekend stay with plans to visit Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. It was tucked away on a quiet lake in a nice area to walk the dog. The location wasnt too far from anything we wanted to do and it was a good price as well. Recommended!

Great access to the VASA trail system

This is a very nice base of operations for a visit to Traverse City. It is a quiet location on Spider Lake with a well equipped house with everything to make your stay comfortable. This was our second stay and the property is well maintained and very clean. It is easy to get to local market and to downtown TC.

About the host

Hosted by Tom A Kingsford

Host profile image
I grew up in Traverse City and frequently visited Spider Lake as a kid. When I was able to find a property on the lake that needed some TLC for the right price I purchased this place and spent six months transforming a summer cabin into a year round home. I continue to make improvements as time and money allow. I am an electrician, my wife Casey works in the pharmacy at the hospital. We live about 15 minutes away.

Why they chose this property

This property is peaceful and beautiful. It's on a private drive off a dead-end road. This part of the lake is low-wake no waves, jet ski's or motor boats going by above an idle. The neighbors Art and Bonnie are great. It's a private escape 15 minutes out of town.

What makes this property unique

The view alone of the lake whether you ever intend touch the water is worth it. Even when it's raining you can find yourself mesmerized watching the rain hit the water. If your feeling more adventurous hop in the complimentary kayaks to explore the lake. It has many coves, a sand bar and a couple islands.
