Adequate
Posted Jul. 9, 2024 on HomeAwayIf you're looking for a rental property that sleeps a bunch with a reasonable kitchen, dinning room, family room and living room, this place will work just fine. Don't expect the Ritz. There is only one purpose the owner has for this place, and that is rental income. The kitchen is well provisioned and previous renters had left a few things in the spice drawer.
You can tell this is a rental property from the way the place is maintained. There are cobwebs all over, the gutters are full of debris and there is a tree growing out of the chimney. The property is surrounded by what appears to be a defunct nursery. One morning, we saw out our back window a woman dropping her drawers and taking a dump back there.
Biggest con for this place is the highway in front of the house. Although it's only 2 lane, it changes speeds from 45 to 55mph just past the property. Makes sitting on the deck or opening the windows not enjoyable.
The beach is beautiful, and the use of the kayaks was nice. We did have a great time, though the check in process was a bit sketchy. Got an email from VRBO 3 days before saying if I didn't have check-in instructions to reach out to the host. I did that, and he responded instructions would come out the night before. Received nothing. Sent a message on the morning of check-in and heard nothing. Called at 2 hours before check-in and reached the host. He then sent the instructions, saying it was some IT issue with VRBO.

Girls Trip
Posted Sep. 18, 2023 on HomeAwayThis house was perfect for our annual family girls trip. Great location to Downtown Traverse City and all the winery's up the Leelanau Peninsula. The views were amazing! everything was just as pictured! The owners have definitely put a lot of work into this house. They were very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions we had.

Wedding weekend
Posted Aug. 21, 2023 on HomeAwayThis was the perfect location for all of our events for our son’s wedding. The house is larger on the inside than it looks on the outside. It was well equipped with everything you need and the beach was perfect… just be careful crossing M-22. The outside deck was very nice. I wish we had been able to spend more time at the house we were out enjoying all of our wedding festivities. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Fabulous!!
Posted Aug. 7, 2023 on HomeAwayA wedding to attend at Starry Night Barn and other activities in Traverse City. The home was an excellent choice. Spacious, enough bathrooms (Important when getting ready for a wedding! ) and the view!! Wow - also enjoyed the private beach, campfires, and some great family chats on the front porch. Jim was great to work with and very responsive.

Great location!
Posted Jul. 28, 2023 on HomeAwayPros: close to downtown Traverse City, lake views, personal beach, great host who responded to our needs. Didn’t make us do anything to check out like a lot of host on this platform and others.
Cons: only one pan to cook and it was in rough shape, the tv with Roku didn’t work( host probably would have came to fix it but wasn’t a big issue for us, we needed up using our own). It is on a busy street.

Amazing property!
Posted Jul. 24, 2023 on HomeAwayThis house was perfect. Had everything we needed. The private beach was right across the main road and easy to access. Plenty of room, beautiful house, everything recently updated. Property owner was great, communication was prompt and he was very attentive to our needs. 100% would stay here again! Quick drive to the downtown area, about 10 min from everything. Lots of other beaches in the area. Had no issues at all, we were very pleased.
