Start each day with infinite lake views when you book this impressive multi-level home located on the shores of the highly sought-after Long Lake in Traverse City! Discover the charms of this sought-after recreational lake from a new perspective by embarking on a kayak or rowboat adventure from your private dock equipped with a boat lift. Whether you are swimming, water skiing, or casting a line for fishing, there's endless fun on the water. Additionally, you can explore three public parks along the lake's shores: Taylor Park, Gilbert Park, and Crescent Shores Park & Boat Launch. Delight your guests with unforgettable barbecues using the gas grill provided, and savor your meals outdoors at the picnic table. Alternatively, gather by the lakeside firepit for storytelling sessions while roasting s'mores as the sun sets.

The interior features well-maintained furniture that exudes a timeless charm, showcasing its longevity and enduring quality. You will be wowed by the impressive views of Long Lake through the pictured windows and the telescope available allows you to take a closer look. Spend memorable evenings streaming entertaining shows on the large smart TV with streaming services, reading a favorite book from the home's book collection, or challenging your friends to exciting board games. When mealtime comes around, surprise your guests with their favorite recipes - the full kitchen has been appointed with modern, stainless steel appliances that will make cooking a breeze. The home is also equipped with a beautiful wet bar with a full-size fridge and all the essentials to show off your bartender skills. Additional perks include a washer/dryer, two beach chairs, and TVs in most bedrooms.

This beachfront delight enjoys a wonderful location two miles from Long Lake Grocery for limited provisions and take-out pizza, five miles from Moomers Ice Cream (a local's favorite), and 13 miles from Traverse City, which offers a plethora of activities and places for visitors to enjoy, including its boutiques, galleries, cafes, and restaurants. Take a stroll along Front Street or visit the historic State Theatre. Depending on the time of year, you might catch the National Cherry Festival, held annually in Traverse City. It features parades, concerts, cherry-themed food, and various family-friendly activities. Other amazing attractions include Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Traverse City State Park, Great Lakes Children's Museum, Traverse City History Center, and golfing.

Overall our stay here was amazing. The location of the property on the lake is close to the public boat launch which was extremely convenient, and the amount of private yard and beach was great for our family. The dock on the property was maintained and convenient for our boat. The house is dated as the pictures and description state, but gave a very cool vibe

This is a great option for a unique rental on Long Lake. The house is large enough to accommodate 2 families with plenty to do both inside and outside. The house itself has a few minor quirks but it's easily outweighed by the location (private peninsula on a beautiful lake) and unique features: the house has lots of fun rooms, panoramic views and is stocked with books, games and movies.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2024
The property couldn't be more perfect. Being on the point like it is. The grandkids loved having the water on both sides. We had plenty of room for the fourteen of us. The kids and grandkids enjoyed the pool table and ping pong table, as well as sitting by the campfire. It's close to many different attractions. Definitely a place we would go to again.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2024
Location is incredible especially for our family with 6 kids to enjoy a private sandy beach. Guests need to be ok with old furniture and an outdated home. The AC is not central so it does get warm in the common areas.
