Overall we had a great stay! Host Jennifer was amazing at communicating the property location, check-in, and gave us plenty of suggestions on activities and restaurants nearby. She responded immediately to a few small issues and promptly addressed them. So 5 stars for the host!! As far as the property and house: was overall clean, stocked well for our needs, had plenty of room for 5 people. The kids really liked the variety of games and foosball table. The house is dog friendly and even equipped with dog bowls and a few dog toys if you forgot yours. The house is mostly private from neighbors and fairly wooded. Its is VERY quiet in evening and night time which we prefer & loved. But if you are planning to be outside and partying or being loud after dark, probably not the house for you. The area is VERY dark at night so flashlights are needed - brought our own but one was provided. There is a nice park with baseball field, beach volleyball, frisbee golf, and playground for kids that is about a 2 min walk. A 5 min walk to the public “beach” access which is really a pier with boat launch. The shed has bikes and kayaks available for use.A few things to know:Not an issue for us, but the laundry is in basement and stairs could be tricky for someone who has any difficulty with stairs.The master/king bed is an upstairs loft - can hear everything downstairs. The 2nd BR access is through the master and then through the bathroom. Again, not an issue for us. Would come back!

Jenn was an incredible host — from the spare room, to the blankets, towels, laundry room, and kitchen — the house was very dialed in. We really enjoyed the peninsula (community dock area) and the community on our daily walks.

Great Property!

Our family of four had an amazing time staying at this cottage near Traverse City. It was clean, and very well appointed. It had everything we needed for a long weekend. Great location as well. Excellent place to stay if you need a family getaway.

Great house in a quiet corner of Long Lake

Great house for a family. The layout makes it easy enough to find a quiet place for kids’ naps or early bedtimes. Clean. A ten-minute walk to water access for swimming and a boat launch. We had a wonderful stay and hope to stay again!

Our family had a wonderful time visiting this home in northern Michigan. We were able to check out the dunes, kayak the Platte River and check out some awesome restaurants in TC, Glen Arbor and the surrounding areas during our stay. Our host was wonderful. The local recommendations were great and the property was clean and included everything we needed. The storage shed with beach chairs, beach toys, bikes and the kayaks were an added bonus!

Fully Equipped Beautiful Rental

OMG THIS PLACE WAS THE CUTEST! The Wilderness Camp decor vibes were on point and the house had absolutely everything you would need for a perfect stay. The property owner was great and very easy to get a hold of! The location was perfect - safe and close to town! We slept great and woke up rested each morning! What a perfect home for a family vacation! Thank you so much for everything!

Nice home in a good location for exploring all the TC area has to offer. Condition of the home was clean and nice. The floor plan is a little funky depending on how many people are staying in the home. It was nice to have bikes to ride around the neighborhood. Overall a good option!

Great stay in northern Michigan!

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful cottage nestled just outside of Traverse City. Very clean and comfortable for our family of four! We took day trips to several nearby beaches such as Empire, Frankfort, Sleeping Bear Dunes and Glen Arbor. All were about a 30 minute drive from the cottage. Coffee on the deck in the mornings was really nice and this cottage offered us all of the amenities we were looking for. Would highly recommend!

Perfect family get away

This property was beautiful! It was a quiet area with nature all around! We were in town for a wedding weekend and these accommodations were perfect for our family ranging in ages from 11-70. Check in was easy, directions were spot on and Jenn (owner) was easy to connect with for anything we needed. I appreciated all the extras that aren’t typically supplied including enough toilet paper/ paper towels for our stay, toiletries ( even little details like q-tips and floss picks)! There were plenty of games and we especially loved walking to the neighborhood park for a little basketball and volleyball. We didn’t get to enjoy lake activities, but Jenn provided everything we would have needed. The outdoor space on property has many options for sitting and enjoying being outside! I highly recommend staying here!
