Family Wedding

Staying here was far more comfortable than a hotel; and less money! Plus, we were able to have our furry friend with us all weekend. We fished and paddle boarded; all thankfully supplied by the homeowner! Thanks!

The house is beautifully renovated and appointed with everything we needed for our stay. We love having the option to bring our dog, so thank you for being pet friendly. The lake view is lovely. I would absolutely stay again in the summer and enjoy the kayaks and backyard.

Beautiful Lakehouse

This place was exactly as advertised and was a perfect place to stay. We grilled food out by the lake, enjoyed a fire in the fire pit well into the night, and just got to enjoy the beautiful views of the lake. Would definitely stay again the next time in the area.

Great access to the VASA trail system

This is a very nice base of operations for a visit to Traverse City. It is a quiet location on Spider Lake with a well equipped house with everything to make your stay comfortable. This was our second stay and the property is well maintained and very clean. It is easy to get to local market and to downtown TC.

Fall Getaway

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the property. We enjoyed being able to rent the pontoon boat and spend the afternoons on the lake. We cooked our own breakfasts and then drove into Traverse City for dinner. The drive was easy.

Good Little Home near Traverse City!

We came in for a short weekend stay with plans to visit Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. It was tucked away on a quiet lake in a nice area to walk the dog. The location wasnt too far from anything we wanted to do and it was a good price as well. Recommended!

Cute cottage/house on inland bay

This rental was really clean and has a wonderful deck and dock. We were questioning staying on a bay instead of the main lake and it wasn’t a problem. Still had a sandy bottom and was so peaceful!! Took kayaks out to the main lake. Tom is a wonderful host and great communicator with any questions you may have. Enjoyed our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Tom A Kingsford

Host profile image
I grew up in Traverse City and frequently visited Spider Lake as a kid. When I was able to find a property on the lake that needed some TLC for the right price I purchased this place and spent six months transforming a summer cabin into a year round home. I continue to make improvements as time and money allow. I am an electrician, my wife Casey works in the pharmacy at the hospital. We live about 15 minutes away.

Why they chose this property

This property is peaceful and beautiful. It's on a private drive off a dead-end road. This part of the lake is low-wake no waves, jet ski's or motor boats going by above an idle. The neighbors Art and Bonnie are great. It's a private escape 15 minutes out of town.

What makes this property unique

The view alone of the lake whether you ever intend touch the water is worth it. Even when it's raining you can find yourself mesmerized watching the rain hit the water. If your feeling more adventurous hop in the complimentary kayaks to explore the lake. It has many coves, a sand bar and a couple islands.
