Clean, spacious and comfortable!

Christina was great to work with. I was totally impressed with the cleanliness of this home. Baseboards were even clean! We didn’t have to bring anything but our clothes and what we wanted as far as food and drink. The home was stocked with toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, and more. Very nice, comfortable, and lots of room. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

Perfect location for wine tasting on either peninsulas. Plenty of space to spread out. Bathrooms were very nice with good water pressure and the kitchen had everything you need for a weekend getaway. Beds were comfy and cozy. Would definitely stay there again.

Convenient and cozy

Close to dining and activities. Deer in the back yard each morning. The home amenities, appliances, furnishings, and decor were just what we were looking for.

Great location, comfortable, quiet

We loved staying in this house because of it's great location--especially how close it was to the TART Trail system. We went on walks along the trail and then rented bikes one day at Riding Electric which is just down the street. Loved it! It's close to downtown Traverse City as well. The house itself is very comfortable; beds were great, and we enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. There's plenty of room for a family, between the loft, the main floor, and the basement. The house is nicely furnished and has all the supplies needed. We'd definitely staty again!

About the host

Hosted by Christina Hutchens

First of all, thank you for looking at and considering my property!

My name is Christina and I am a single mom of two young adventurous daughters, 8 & 12yo. I am an occupational therapist, handywoman, entrepreneur, world traveler, musician, foodie, surfer and coffee snob, living between Michigan and Southern California.

Traverse City is where I grew up and have lived much of my adult life. It is always a pleasure to share hospitality with people who apprciate this beautiful place I get to call home, Traverse City, MI. Before short term rentals were a thing several years ago, this house became a place to stay for vacationers to the area. I have pride in my short term rentals and take on as much of the maintenance and management as I can, myself. It means the world to me when people treat my homes as their own, because I put so much blood, sweat and tears (literally) into my vacation homes.
