Remote yet close enough to downtown Traverse City and Grand Traverse Resort. Local waterfront park down the street. Have to check out a Pit Spitters game. Quiet setting. Very comfortable setup with small family room at entry and sitting are off kitchen. Host was excellent to work with. We'd book again.

super easy and loved the lake access! i didn’t know beforehand though that there were no motor boats, but for what we wanted to do the lake was a perfect size. the deck was great and the house was the perfect size for us. love that the fire ring was provided, but i do wish we knew to bring charcoal for the grill because there was none provided. the host gave great recommendations at near by stores and restaurants though!

Relaxing get away

It is a cabin so away from the city, which we were looking for. Good accommodations and a filtered pitcher in the fridge was a nice bonus. Suited our expectations very well!

The cottage is cute and perfect for a relaxing get-away. It’s nice to be on a lake without motors, you can really enjoy peaceful nature sounds. And it is so close to all that Travers City has to offer!
