Perfect Location for Family Fun

This property was excellent for our annual family trip to Traverse City! We enjoyed easy access to everything the area had to offer, being steps away from the TART trail for biking and walking, kayaking on Cedar Lake, and more.

I have never been at a place that was so clean, convenient and relaxing. Being on the water I expected the usual spider webs and stuff but the place was immaculate. The window tracks were even clean. We had three adult couples and the rooms and full size bathrooms were perfect. The side of the lake that we were at was absolutely quiet and relaxing. Coffee in the morning and a drink at night was perfect on the deck and the dock. Location is ideal with the trail right by the house. I have this down as a return visit and would say this has been our best experience by far. I forgot to mention that the grounds were beautiful with all the Black-eye Susan’s in full bloom and well maintained.

Great stay - the hosts are wonderful. The house was clean, really nice open spaces and kitchen, comfy beds. Really appreciated the location and access to the TART trail as it made walks with our dog easy. The lake is beautiful, peaceful and serene, enjoyed kayaking. Quiet neighborhood - lots of wildlife. Would definitely stay again!

A great lake house

The house is in great shape and bigger than we anticipated. Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the location is convenient to Traverse City or heading up M22 to other fun towns. The deck with the lake view is incredible and you’re literally steps from the Leelanau bike trail.

Perfect Location on a beautiful lake

Pretty and Private

Our stay at the Cedar Lake house was perfect for our family getaway and fishing charter. The views to the lake are stunning and the house is beautifully furnished. We enjoyeed grilling, and the guys caught a few fish off the dock! Wish we could have stayed longer!! Thank you for providing such beautiful home to share.

Beautiful Place! Great Location!

This is a beautiful home with a gorgeous view of Cedar Lake. The kitchen has an amazing view of the lake with a high top table to enjoy dinner. The location is close to downtown yet quiet and secluded. Very close to the bike trail. We had a wonderful stay. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you for opening your home to visitors.

Quick weekend getaway

We booked this house for my Brother In Laws wedding. Unfortunately we didn't get to enjoy the lake as much as we wanted, so would look to come back! The house had a lot of space for 5 adults and one infant. Easy check in and check out process. Would definitely recommend this house if you are visiting the area!

Absolute perfection!

We’ve stayed in many up north vacation rentals, and none compare to this perfect house on Cedar Lake! The property exceeded our expectations in every way - in size, comfort, amenities, VIEWS! The hosts were quick to communicate, hospitable, helpful and kind. With so much to do around Traverse City and up the peninsula, our kids never wanted to leave the house and the lake. We hope to be back next summer, if not before!

Spacious house with full upper and lower living areas. The upper kitchen that we used is well-equipped. Beautiful view of the lake from the back of the house. Great deck. Patio near the dock with a huge fire pit where we spent the evenings enjoying the weather and beautiful star-filled sky. Great location. Not far from Sleeping Bear Dunes and lovely wineries. Thanks to Maude for a very memorable stay.

Comfortable Home in a perfect location with a great view

We had a fantastic family vacation at Maude's home. It was my husband and I, and three grown children/inlaws.The house has a great layout for everyone and the four bathrooms with the four bedrooms is hard to beat. The view from the deck or pier is so relaxing. The house is in great condition and has everything you'd need. We love that it was outside of downtown TC but still so close to all the wineries and the bike trail. We even got to enjoy Cedar Lake's fireworks over the lake in the most comfortable setting with a fire going. Great family memories were made here. Highly recommended.

Great location on the lake, beautiful sunrises.. Used the deck overlooking the lake a lot, great location, close to downtown Traverse City and all points north. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were plentyn for our three couple visit. Owner communication was great and timely. We didnt' use the trail which runs close to the property, but hidden by a dense set of trees and bushes. Next visit, we will rent some bikes and use the trail.

We stayed here for 2 weeks on a family vacation. The house is very spacious and well equipped and the location is outstanding. Very close to Traverse City and the TART trail for walking and biking. After a day of fun activities, we enjoyed relaxing on the deck watching the lake wildlife and boaters. The hosts were very responsive to our minor concerns (e.g. replacement light bulbs, carbon monoxide monitor beeping). We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful, peaceful Retreat

We decided, somewhat impromptu, to book a stay in Traverse City with our kids and Australian neighbors, who had never been up north, and we were absolutely thrilled Maude's house was available! The layout was perfect for two families with small kids b/c each family could have a level of the home for various bedtimes. The view is unparalleled, and after arriving late in the evening on Thursday, it was the most beautiful site when we woke up early Friday. The kids loved running in the yard, we explored the lake on the kayaks provided, and couldn't believe the clarity of the water to spot the fish. It was peaceful at all hours of the day, and we enjoyed the cool nights on the deck, and the fire pit one night as well. My husband and I already decided we want to return for a week to truly sink into the beauty around the property and the area in general. Thank you for offering your house to families - the memories created there will be lasting! Melissa P.

Quiet Location

Our stay here was nothing short of fantastic. Everything from communication before to the actual listing itself. Quiet Location at the end of a dead end street. The water in the back yard was beautiful and peaceful. The property was clean and accurately described. My only complaint is the master bedroom mattress is quite squishy and I prefer something more firm. Highly recommend this listing and hoping to be back again next summer!
