Convenient location

I found that our stay here was conveniently located near town, you can walk to so many eateries and shops within the villages campus. AC and ceiling fan worked great, beds were comfortable, and I really liked the patio sitting area in the evenings.

Great getaway base

We loved our stay at this condo in the Commons. Close enough to Traverse City but without all the crowds. Great dining options. The condo itself was very comfortable, quiet and we appreciated the outside space. Would stay again.
