Perfect location for tooling around Traverse City. House was great, hot tub was superb. We didn’t get to explore around in the park out back, but we are looking forward to a summer return! Highly recommend this home and host!

Wonderful place! We really Enjoyed the beautiful house. The house was well stocked, clean and comfortable. My wife also loved the hot tub.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Very great location very close to Traverse City. I think they were very great to mention that it is on the main road. If my kids are a little bit younger, probably a little bit too close, but my oldest really loved being near the stream seeing all the fish… they loved the hot tub. They loved the Fire pit. It was great to be a quick drive into Traverse City. Very clean and cute .

Sweet little cabin next to a creek and an easy walk to the beach. Perfect place to explore Traverse City, Big Bear Dunes and attend performances at Interlochen School of the Arts. The hosts thought of everything to make you feel at home, comfortable beds, attractive spaces indoors and out to hang out and a well-equipped kitchen.
