It was a wonderful property with many amenities. Very convenient location and very responsive and kind host. The group before us were not respectful to the home which resulted in a damaged laundry machine, but the host made sure we had appropriate accommodations and made sure everything was still a very smooth and enjoyable stay.

Fiftieth Anniversary Fun
Our whole family gathered to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. The house worked well with everyone having room to enjoy the experience. The location was great for exploring the area and we loved being able to relax in the hot tub. A wonderful week.

Beautiful Property & Superb Hospitality
We enjoyed our stay at the lodge! It is conveniently located close to Traverse City, making it easy to make trips to town for activities and dinner. The house was beautiful - well maintained and stocked with all the basics that we needed. Patrick was extremely helpful and attentive with anything that came up.

Beautiful Home with front / rear deck, gazebo and hot tub/pool.
All relatively new appliances, 4-sepertate full bathrooms make it easy to have multiple families at once. Oversized refrig and freezer, BBQ grill, fire table. So close to things to do. We did winery, beach, Sleeping Bear Dunes and Great Wolf Lodge indoor water park on the rain day. Everyone loved downtown Traverse City

Amazing spot for an up north weekend
The house and property are beautiful and the host, Patrick, was a really nice guy. The house was super close to everything we wanted to do: grocery store (3 mins), Costco (8 mins), airport (10 mins), golf course (20 mins), downtown TC (15 mins), & casino (10 mins). It’s also secluded enough from the neighbors so we didn’t ever worry about being too noisy. This house helped our friend group have an incredibly memorable weekend in TC. Would highly recommend staying here!
