Great Place. You will like it.

Attention to detail, clean, comfortable, excellent location, and good owner communication is how I would describe this rental. The only VERY SMALL negative is that the unit is on a busy road which does create a small amount of road noise. My wife is a very light sleeper and it did not bother her. I very highly recommend this rental. Not only would I stay there again I will stay there again.

Beautiful and comfortable home

The place is beautiful, newly renovated. The host is responsive and very helpful. He gave me great ideas of activities and local eateries. My only problem was location. The photos made it look more remote than it is. We were looking for a quiet place off the beaten path. If you are looking to be in Traverse City and close to everything than this would he a wonderful choice. If you are looking for quiet inside and out then not so much. That said though the busy road is pervasive outside, but they did a great job at soundproofing the place. Oh and super dog friendly!!

Amazing, Well Supplied and Cozy Home

This was the best rental home I've ever booked. The house was cozy, very clean, and fully stocked with so many extras. The property owners were super friendly and communicated very well the entire process. The website was super intuitive and informative giving us clear directions and information about the home, the tv, the wifi, pet policy, arrival and exit information as well as information about anything you could want to know about local events and restaurants. The home was very well insulated that kept us warm without having to crank up the heat. The beds were very comfortable and there were more than enough pillows and blankets. Tons of towels, bath and cleaning supplies. Kitchen was fully stocked with cooking supplies, pots, pans, seasonings, utensils, paper towels, coffee, and so much more. There were even pet treats for our dog who came with us last minute. Overall this was three easiest review, a solid 5 stars, that I've ever given. We would certainly book this place again and recommend it to anyone looking for a place in Traverse city.

Clean and Cozy - Great Traverse City Location

We were only able to get away for two nights, but it was worth every minute. There are too many great things to say about our stay, but some highlights included the cleanliness of the overall property and cottage, the convenient location, and the hot tub. We enjoyed our stay, and we also appreciated the clear and courteous communications with the owners.

Great Place

The chalet is great! It is both aesthetically charming and functional. It is small but since the use of space is well thought out it does not feel cramped. We loved the wrap around deck which felt like an extension of the inside. The hosts attention to detail along with a few special touches were obvious & appreciated.

Sister retreat

Trying to rekindle memories of up north and the TC area in a cabin in the woods with my adult sisters, and this property did not disappoint! Just two beds so for 3 of us two had to share a bed. If traveling as two couples should know each other well or you’re about to with the intimate space. ;) Loved the location, the hot tub. Super clean, cozy, woodsy and convenient!

Perfect TC Getaway!

The cabin is a perfect option for those looking to experience TC but not do a hotel and instead get a hybrid hotel/camping experience. The cabin itself is VERY clean and updated. It was very hot when we went and the AC worked very well to cool the cabin down. There is a wraparound deck with seating and enough room for kids and dogs to run around. There is a nice fire pit with firewood in the backyard, and the house comes with two metal utensils to roast your marshmallows for your s’mores! Would stay here again for sure!
