Great location to downtown TC
This condo was in a great location with easy walk to the water and downtown TC. The host was very responsive. Amenities boxes were provided in each bathroom as well as laundry and kitchen needs! It was too cold to enjoy the rooftop during our stay, but I imagine it’s lovely when the sun is out.

Couples getaway
The furniture was dirty and uncomfortable and not enough for the 4 people staying there. The rooftop furniture was broken. The stair treads were a trip hazard.

Awesome place to stay
We loved staying at this condo. The management was so easy to work with and even helped us get in a day earlier (last minute) when our plans changed. The condo itself is within walking distance to town for meals and the beaches. The condo was modern & comfy and had the best rooftop for hanging out. We would stay again!

July - Traverse City Vacation
Amazing experience. The management is superior! Neve have I had someone who is more personable and attentive to every need we might have. The condo was lovely, and described perfectly. Every home amenity that you will need-- plus MORE!
While in an amazing location, Traverse City is going under ALOT of construction-- so in the morning, bring ear plugs!! This is no indication of the condo or management!

Perfect spot in Traverse City
Great location, across the street from the beach with plenty of food and drink locations nearby. Reasonably priced. Epic rooftop patio, easy parking and access, plus fun welcome gift from the host (MI blended whiskey with cherries). Lots of stairs for older or big folks. Overall had a great time!

My own piece of tranquility
Our family had an amazing stay with the biggest highlight being the breathtaking roof top terrace where we started the day with coffee and ended with wine. The condo was highly appointed with every amenity. Plus walking distance to downtown restaurants and shopping. Staying here elevated our trip to traverse city.

Great location
My daughter and i were looking for a place to stay for her to decompress from grad school and wedding planning. It was spring break, quiet in traverse city, but that's what we were hoping for. The condo was very quiet for us, but there was no one really around. Rarely did we hear sounds from other condos and we never heard street noise. This condo was the perfect location. Walkable to downtown, Front St, and a short drive anywhere else. Easy to get in and out. There is a little Italian deli that is a must, zfolgarellis we had the best sandwiches ever!
