Perfect Nook in Traverse City

We enjoyed staying here. Studio is very clean, modern, and easy check-in and out process. It’s within walking distance to shops, restaurants, Clinch Beach, and so much to do nearby. We loved the Omlette Shoppe which is located underneath the studio. Very convenient to have to the parking pass included. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Downtown getaway

Quick weekend away to enjoy all that TC offers. Great location. Comfortable accommodations. Fantastic shower. Air conditioner worked great and provided relief from the 80-degree weather. Loved walking to Farmers Market, dinner, and down to the Bay. I will definitely come back again!

My partner and I stayed here while on a wine tasting excursion for a milestone birthday. The location was perfect, no driving necessary! The apartment had all the amenities you could ask for and the decor was beautiful. Don't miss the blueberry lemon ricotta pancakes at the Omelette Shoppe downstairs.

International Fireworks Competition

My husband and I stayed here to attend the fireworks competition at Turtle Creek Stadium opposed to a local hotel that we stayed at last year. This was so much better! Perfect location, very clean, convenient access to vehicle, and the extras (games and snacks) were so thoughtful. Will definitely book again when visiting Traverse City
