About this apartment rental
This is a beautiful, quiet, and serene Christian-themed apartment that consists of the entire second floor of a charming Dutch colonial home in the northern Michigan countryside. It is on a dirt road about a 5 minute drive north from downtown Lake Ann. It has a large living room, large bedroom, and room A/C. Also includes a private balcony overlooking the countryside as well as its own bonfire ring with outdoor chairs. It provides a lovely getaway to all that Northern Michigan has to offer!
GUEST INTERACTION:
The property owners live on the first floor and are available to address any questions or issues. They also co-ordinate check-in.
NEIGHBORHOOD:
Lake Ann is a cute little northern Michigan town that has a very quaint old-time general store, a microbrewery, post office, and several cute shops and restaurants. The lake itself is quite beautiful and serene and there are nature trails that run along it as well as public parks on the lake. The geographic location of Lake Ann makes it great central point for exploring Traverse City to the east, the Leelanau Peninsula to the north, Sleeping Bear Dunes to the northwest, and Crystal Lake, Beulah, Frankfort, Elberta, and Lake Michigan beaches to the west. All of these locations are within a 45-minute drive from the cottage!
THE SPACE:
The apartment is very traditional in terms of décor with an up-north country theme throughout the apartment. The apartment is dog-friendly and up to 2 dogs are permitted with a pet fee. There are some trails on the property for walking dogs as well.
The property owners are a lovely retired couple that live on the first floor of the house. The husband works part-time as a church pastor. They coordinate guest stays. (We provide you with their contact information after a reservation is made.)
TRANSIT:
Public transportation in the area is limited, so it is highly recommended that guests have their own vehicle.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
1) PET POLICY: The apartment is pet-friendly and up to 2 dogs are allowed. (Pit bulls, rottweilers, and cats are not permitted.) Dogs must not be left alone in the apartment by themselves though. If bringing 1 or 2 dogs, please make certain that they are included on the reservation and that the pet fee is appropriately paid. More than 2 dogs is strictly prohibited and any pets other than dogs are also strictly prohibited.
2) LIMITED AIR CONDITIONING: Please note that there is a window A/C unit for the bedroom, but that this will not cool the entire apartment. Outside of the bedroom, the apartment may get warm if it is warm outside.
3) EARLY CHECK-IN: Our policy is to allow early check-in on the day of arrival if the property is available for check-in. We will not know until the day before arrival whether or not the property will be available for early check-in or not. You can check with our local property manager the day before arrival or on your arrival day to see if the property will be available for early check-in or not.
4) LATE CHECK-OUT: We maintain a very strict and structured cleaning schedule. As such, late check-outs are strictly prohibited.

Great host. No issues. Would stay again.

The hosts were wonderful and the accommodations exactly as described. I would definitely stay there again as it is clean, comfortable and in a wonderful area!
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2025
The owners of the property live downstairs and are friendly, kind, and as accomodating as they can possibly be. The only warning I will give renters is that this is a small kitchen and cooking supplies are minimal as a result. I only saw 3 fry pans and 2 small sauce pans in the pictures so I brought a few items from my kitchen with me (my soup pot and, of course, my instant pot). It all worked out great. Just keep it in mind if you plan on cooking in. This was a good stay with good people on the property. They give you all the respect and privacy you could want.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2024
I only gave a 3 star rating because I never actually stayed at this property, but received a notification that the property manager had reviewed me as a guest, and I was required to submit a review to see his review of me. I had reserved this property but had zero communication from the property manager from the time of reservation until the day before check-in. I had tried to contact someone regarding my reservation, to no avail. As I was traveling alone, I decided I was uncomfortable with the situation and I canceled. Unfortunately, I had paid in full for an entire week, including fees, and lost all of my money. Fortunately, I found a much nicer property in a nearby location, on the water, with very hospitable property managers.
