This home was absolutely fabulous. The interior of the home was clean and stunning, meanwhile the fenced in yard was a great touch for privacy and to enjoy the flowers and stars. Jennifer was extremely responsive and gave excellent recommendations of local spots to try. Location was great too! This home was across the street from a dog friendly beach and very close to Front Street. We spent no money on Ubers this vacation! This is one of the best rentals we have experienced. My family highly recommends!!

Overall, we had an excellent stay and experience and highly recommend this property. It is extremely well located in a desirable neighborhood: a few minutes walk from a very nice sandy beach, from the marina park where free public events are organized, from quality food stores, ice-cream parlor and restaurants, and reasonable walking distance from downtown Traverse City. The property is welcoming with a charming blue siding and white trim and a nice yard including a fenced front yard and a fenced backyard both with well maintained lawn , in ground and potted well kept plants and flowers and a furnished deck and a gas grill to enjoy outdoor dining. The interior of the house is also beautifully decorated, extremely clean and luminous with a balance of antique charm and modern amenities with quality materials. The living space and 2 bedrooms are comfortable and spacious. The bathroom is well decorated and practical and stocked with more accessories than most luxury hotels and even includes a modern set of full-size washer and dryer we used. The kitchen looks great and is extremely well stocked with all kind of plates, utensils and appliances of all sorts and also various condiments: way above any property we rented and all in excellent or new condition. The attached garage is a great plus that easily fits our Honda CR-V and also stores provided accessories like beach chairs, beach towels. The host is very friendly and a great communicator answering promptly all our questions.
