We had a great nights stay at this adorable cottage. Close to TC, yet far enough away from all the commotion. The lake was beautiful, always nice waking up to beautiful scenery. Very tidy and organized. The host was very communicative and prompt with responses. We would definitely revisit in the future.

This is the perfect cottage for spending the week on Silver Lake. The cottage was exactly as we expected from the photos - no frills and thrills, just lake living. It was amazing to be waterfront and have the dock. You can spend the day fishing, kayaking, etc without leaving the property. The water at Silver Lake is gorgeous. The location was very convenient to get to downtown Traverse City. It was about 30 minutes to many locations on the peninsulas and was a very simple drive.

We absolutely loved our stay! The house had such a warm, cozy feel that made it easy to relax and feel right at home. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for guests. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly, and we felt completely safe the entire time. It’s in a great location—close to everything we needed, yet peaceful enough to unwind after a busy day. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would definitely come back again!

Great place to stay, floor was a little dirty baby that was crawling around ended up filthy from the floor. Found a hat behind a couch from a prior guest, other than that great place to stay just as described.

Cute cottage with a view.

We enjoyed the larger kitchen since we had a graduation open house to cater to. Bedrooms are small with little luggage room, but tolerable. Only complaint would be the small bathroom and even smaller shower. A larger person would not be able to use the shower. No extra towels.

Relaxation at Silver Lake

Loved this cottage - is small but efficient and has an amazing sun room and great deck overlooking the lake. Katie was really communicative about property and rental and the check-in/out process was very smooth. The kitchen is lacking enough tools to really cook beyond the very basics, but there is a fantastic gas grill that was ready to go! The washer and dryer in the house were a real bonus - and came in really handy. We really enjoyed our stay - this property also benefits from great location - just outside of Traverse City, so it is relatively quiet, but very quick drive to be downtown for dining out and other entertainments! The only thing really lacking was a first aid kit - many properties have one and we realized too late that there wasn't one here (finger cut while cleaning fish). Fantastic place though!

Infestation everywhere

We stayed at this property from June 16–20 and unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations. The booking process was straightforward, but issues began immediately upon arrival. The outdoor area was overrun with ants and ant hills — from the driveway to the backyard and lake path — making it difficult to enjoy the exterior amenities, including the fire pit and patio.Inside, we noticed many dead bugs on ceilings, walls, curtains, and lamps, which made us question the cleaning quality despite paying a cleaning fee. The bedrooms were extremely small with no space for luggage or storage. The living room couch was undersized and uncomfortable for a main gathering space. The pull-out bed for extra guests was located in a back patio room that was difficult to sleep in due to frequent insect activity and a lack of bug protection.The patio also had glass panels that didn’t seem designed for outdoor safety, which concerned us. The bathroom layout was awkward, with a very low toilet and a shower so small it was hard to use comfortably.After buying and using outdoor bug spray to make the space more usable, we were charged a fee post-checkout. We also experienced an issue with the lockbox during checkout, informed the host, and still received a late checkout fee.While we appreciate the location and listing photos, the actual experience was not what we hoped for. We recommend future guests ask detailed questions before booking.
