Please do check out our other rental located just across the street if you would like to book your friends close by! Search for "Large 2Bed/1Bath Country House - 3.6 Miles Traverse City Horse Show / Gold Cup" VRBO listing 2507026

Located in a picturesque rural area surrounded by orchards, less than 5 minutes from the Traverse City Horse Show (back roads so minimal traffic to get there!). Very private with lots of outdoor green space.

We invite you to stay in our bright and open 4 BR / 2 BA farmhouse which was completely renovated in 2016. This home is surrounded by cherry, apple and peach orchards yet we are centrally located to so much of what Northern Michigan has to offer! 3.6 miles to the Traverse City Horse Shows / Flintfields. Ample parking can easily accommodate horse trailer(s).

We want you to experience all the comforts of home - The Kline Farmhouse is very well stocked with everything from extra linens and toiletries to the completely equipped kitchen that has everything you will need to make a delicious meal. Central A/C for those hot summer days! Cable TV and WiFi. Cleanliness is paramount and we pride ourselves on offering a spotless vacation rental for you to enjoy. Housecleaning services available as well.

Our outdoor spaces are amazing and will allow you to take advantage of the beautiful Northern Michigan seasons (with the exception of Winter of course!). Enjoy a meal on the large deck as you watch the sun set, or s'mores with the kids at the stocked fire pit. The spacious front porch is a perfect location to enjoy a cup of coffee and plan the day's activities.

We are a 5 minute drive to the quaint village of Elk Rapids. You will be in the center of Traverse City within 20 minutes, one of the most beautiful towns in America as chosen by Conde Nast Traveler in 2018, or sipping wine at one of the many vineyards on the Old Mission Peninsula. The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, recognized by National Geographic as one of the 21 best beaches on Earth in 2017, is only 45 minutes away. For equestrian lovers, Traverse City Horse Shows hosts events from June through September, including Gold Cup.

The Traverse City area has really exploded as a vacation destination within the past few years.
- The Traverse City Cherry Festival takes place at the end of June into July and is a week long event which features live music, a midway, various family-friendly events around town, fireworks and a wonderful airshow where you can catch a glimpse of the U.S. Navy Blue Angels or the Air Force Thunderbirds soaring over Grand Traverse Bay.
- The Traverse City Film Festival is held in August and features new releases, classic films, documentaries and independent productions.
- The Great Lakes Equestrian Festival / Traverse City Horse Shows take place in July and August and is 6 weeks of exciting equestrian competition, featuring jumpers, hunters and equitation with riders from around the country competing for prestige and prize money.
- Athletes will love the "Iceman Cometh" bike race in November and the newly announced Ironman challenge in August.
- Those who really enjoy a great meal will be pleased to know that Bon Appetit has named Traverse City as one of the Top Five Foodie towns in the country. Local restaurants feature fresh farm-to-table fare which becomes more delicious when pared with a locally sourced wine, also featured prominently on most menus. Vineyards are red-hot in Traverse City as are micro-breweries. Enjoy the views (and the wine!) as you wander your way through the vineyards on the Old Mission and Leelanau Peninsulas.
- Mackinac Island is 2 hours plus a short ferry ride away. This lovely island is home to the Grand Hotel where Somewhere In Time was filmed. There are no motorized vehicles on the island, but plenty of horse-drawn carriages and guides to help you make the most of your day trip!
- If water sports are your thing you have come to the right place. The farmhouse is within 15 minutes of Torch Lake, which is quickly garnering attention as the Caribbean of the North. It is home to crystal clear turquoise waters and white sandbars. The Whitewater Township Park is only 1 mile from the house and offers a public swimming area and boat launch into Elk Lake. You can then access the Chain of Lakes via boat and make a day of it on the water.

When you are done exploring, you can unwind in our home which features the following:
Central air conditioning.
Flatscreen TV in living room.
Flatscreen TV in the Master BR.
Stainless steel appliances in kitchen.
Full bath with tub/shower on main level.

Great property!

We stayed at the farm house to attend a conference that was held at the Grand Traverse Resort. This house was great. It was spotless and stocked with everything we needed. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a quiet spot in the Traverse City area. You will not be disappointed.

Farm House

The owners of this restored farm house have done a great job and are super helpful. They went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and taken care of. The kitchen is really well equipped, the house is very comfortable and super clean. The house is surrounded by cherry orchards that you can stroll through and there are many farm stands nearby. We enjoyed being near enough both Elk Rapids and Traverse City if we wanted to go out to eat. A VRBO I’d like to return to!

Amazing Home!

I can't say enough good things about this house and its owner. We stayed here while my daughter attended a horse show at GLEF, and it was the perfect location - only five minutes from the show. The house is very clean, stocked with everything you could possibly need, has great WiFi, and is super comfortable. It backs up to a beautiful cherry orchard. Watching the sun set while sitting by the fire pit was one of the highlights of our stay! The owner, Joy, is absolutely amazing. She responded to every text immediately and even stopped by to bring us some freshly picked cherries from the orchard! We will absolutely stay here again!!

GREAT place outside Traverse City.

My impression of the house started within a few steps inside. This place is absolutely immaculate. I have never been in a cleaner rental. The positive impressions continued. The place was extremely well furnished with amenities and kitchen equipment. The floor plan was well laid out; three bedrooms upstairs, one on the main floor along with a large kitchen, dining and family room. We had six adults with some hard scheduled events, so getting ready sometime a challenge. Not here, there were two full bathrooms and we never ran out of hot water. If heading back to TC with family, this will be the first place I check.

House is fantastic!

We came for the horse show (21 days!) and had such a lovely time. We rented both the main house and the carriage house across the street. Highlights of the houses: They are beyond well-equipped.We never bought toilet paper or paper towels. Whatever we needed was found in a drawer or hall cabinet. Owners are very near and answer any questions/concerns quickly. Houses' location is 3 minutes from horse show. 10 minutes to grocery and 18 minutes to downtown. There is ample parking for multiple cars and trailer and set on a beautiful cherry orchard. The houses were so charming that we cooked a lot and enjoyed our stay.

Home with a view

We were in TC for a horse showing event that we attend every year. This year we tired a VRBO house verses the large campers we own and normally haul up. This property was perfect. Lovely home. Plenty of room. Clean, up to date and has a fun backyard with expansive lawn, cheery orchard and crop fields. All with a back drop of a tree line that was just starting to think about changing colrs.

Perfect Location! Perfect House!

This house was perfect while my daughter competed at NAYC 2022. Just a couple miles from the showgrounds and close enough to everything we wanted to do while we were there. The house was perfectly stocked with everything you need while on vacation or at the show. The beds are very comfortable, and there was plenty of room for everyone. Very relaxing atmosphere, and I loved walking through the Cherry orchards. Joy is a fantastic host! very easy to get in touch with, very kind and caring. Cant wait to stay again. Michigan has become one our favorite places to visit.

Wonderful stay during GLEF!

The house is exactly as represented in the listing. And it was so CLEAN!!! The owner responded quickly and went out of her way to accommodate us on my special requests. There were so many special touches and little things (e.g., providing makeup removal pads and cotton swabs) that made such a huge impression overall! As one example, I asked about picking cherries, and Joy’s husband dropped off a huge pan of the most delicious cherries. The orchard setting was beautiful. My husband and I would sit outside on lawn chairs to enjoy the views before the kids woke up. The kids had plenty of room to run, explore, and play. For anyone looking for a place to stay while participating in horse shows at the nearby Flintfields Horse Park, it is a 5 minute drive and convenient because it’s located in the opposite direction of the Bates Rd/72 traffic that tends to back up from time to time (and completely avoiding that stop sign interchange). This is truly a wonderful place to stay, and the owners clearly take great care in preparing it for guests.

Perfect location for GLEF and water fun!

This charming farmhouse was well appointed and very clean with many thoughtful touches like USB ports for charging. We loved grilling out on the beautiful deck overlooking the cherry orchards and sitting by the fire pit in the evenings. Boating in Elk Rapids was less than 10 minutes away and the owner left suggestions for nearby restaurants and points of interest. The freshly baked pies for sale down the road were amazing as well.

beautiful accommodations for a busy week

Joy was absolutely the nicest to coordinate our stay with. We are so lucky we were able to stay at her property during our 2 weeks competing at the Traverse City horse show. In addition to the house being immaculately kept, Joy went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. In fact, when we left, we accidentally forgot some important things in the house, and Joy helped us coordinate a way to have it returned to us. We cannot thank her enough for everything!
