We stayed for a wedding in the area. Property super close to venue and was very convenient. House was clean and just as represented on line. Beautiful home and accommodations. We Would stay here again. Neighborhood not the most desirable but the home and property was great and made up for the neighborhood.

Beds were the best I’ve experienced at a vacation rental. House was clean and well stocked with consumables. Owner responded quickly to a couple of minor questions.One minor problem was that a burner on the stove didn’t ignite on its own, but we got it lit with a match, and then found a lighter in the drawer to the left of the stove.

This was our second stay at this property, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. The location is perfect—outside the bustle of Traverse City, but close enough that it’s just a short drive to restaurants, shops, and activities. The beds were very comfortable, and the layout gave all of us plenty of space to relax and spread out. We look forward to coming back again!

The house & grounds were exactly as pictured, and provided our family with a cozy 'base of operations' for wedding-related activities at Bluebridge and in Traverse City. We couldnt have been any more pleased with the accommodations or the location. Our host, Donald, was an excellent communicator.

We had a great stay at this home. I always give honest reviews and don't fluff. Here is my review-----The only drawbacks were that 2 houses across the street are abandoned and look a little sketchy and the oven had grease all over the top. We had to clean it first before using it, but the rest of the house was very clean! (I think they must have just forgot to clean the stovetop.) The beds are super comfortable, it is well stocked for cooking, and the communication was great. We would stay here again.

Clean and Cozy!

The house was extremely comfortable as were the beds. Everything was clean and well taken care of. There was a LOT of snow in the area, but the driveway and path to the house were already shoveled by the time we arrived, which was very kind of the owners to do. Would return! :)

The Perfect Home Base For Fun

The house was very clean. We used the home as a base for exploring the area. Everything we needed was there, except for the food. This is our second year at this house and we would rent again.

Shower problem

The house was very well done and provided the perfect space for my family. We were in town for a family wedding, and the location was perfect for the wedding. The only problem was the shower head fell out of the wall in the main bathroom. The home owner did communicate with us well but nothing could be done during our stay. Luckily there was a second shower, but it was inconvenient. I was told we could possibly get some compensation back, but have not as of yet.

Girls 60th Trip

Overall, the house was just as described and very clean! It worked well for five ladies for a long weekend. Stayed Friday night thru Sunday morning. House was centrally located, not in the best neighborhood but it worked for us. One recommendation would be to have more mirrors for us to put on makeup outside the bathrooms. Beds were extremely comfortable for everyone. Amenities were just as described. Great working with the manager as well.

Restful and quiet

I found the house well furnished, comfortable, and the setting quiet. I was able to rest well and come and go without worrying about disturbing any neighbor. If coming to the area again, I would definitely consider staying here again.

It was ok

The house was ok. Some of the amenities that need improvement were silverware, towels, soap for the bathrooms, and better regulated heat(1 bedroom was 78 and the others were 62 this was with setting the thermostat at 68 and having all bedroom doors open). The house needs gutters or at least something over the door. It rained 2 days and it was not a fun experience to get it and out with out getting drenched.

Nice Stay

The house was exceptionally clean! It was as the listing said it would be. Near 31 made it easy to get to where ever we wanted to go. We would stay again and we would recommend this property to others.
