About the host
Hosted by Emily Beyne

We purchased the property in 2020 going into the crazy unknown of Covid times.
We fully renovated the property on our own, including throwing our own wedding here in 2022.
My husband and I grew up in Traverse City and actually went to the same high school. We reconnected during Covid and fell in love.

Why they chose this property
It’s quiet, beautiful, and private. With many years of hard work we managed to make this homestead into our dream come true.
