This beautiful home is AMAZING! On the Bay with a wonderful patio, & stairs down to the water. Very clean, with lots of extras (coffee, steamer/iron, laundry). The host walked us through the property, showing us how to turn on the patio lights & fire table. Our Ladies trip was the best ever, & we spent alot of time just enjoying this lovely property. Would HIGHLY recommend!

The patio has such an awesome and breathtaking waterfront view! Doug was great and he was very responsive to all of our questions. We had an issue with the fire pit on the patio and he brought over 2 fire tube towers to make up for it so that our group could enjoy epic evenings on the patio! Thanks for a memorable vacation!

We found the home to be very comfortable to gather as a family or find a quiet space for alone time. The bed in the master bedroom is super comfortable. The kitchen is open and easy to work in and well stocked with dishes and utensils. The living room has a large and comfortable couch. Doug, the host, was easily reachable when we had questions and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and our stay comfortable. Thank you Doug.

We had an amazing stay! The property is beautiful and right on the water, with stunning waterfront views. The house was spotless, well-maintained, and in a perfect location—just minutes from downtown Traverse City. The host was incredibly communicative and accommodating throughout our stay. We especially loved the outdoor patio, which made the experience even more relaxing. Highly recommend!
