Absolutely loved the farmhouse and it was perfect for our family! Great location close to Sleeping Dunes, the beach, Traverse city, wineries, and great Polish shop! Would definitely stay again!

Immaculate home and property with a rich history. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and hope to come back again!

This century old house is absolutely perfect. It is out in the country and very secluded, which we love! This is our second stay there. The owners think of everything you might need and the accommodations are very very nice. We will definitely stay there again!!!

The house was fantastic. It was cleaner than my own home. The furniture was comfortable. The location was perfect. The owners were super communicative. We were instantly comfortable in the home. Highly recommend.

We absolutely loved this property! Check in process went very smooth, lots of room for our family to stretch out and play. Such a beautiful house, every detail thoughtfully arranged. Wish the weather was better for us to enjoy the outside areas but will definitely be staying again if we are in the area again. Hosts very attentive and responsive.

The property was beautiful and the location is ideal for a quiet getaway.

Amazing house, great for families, very quiet area with no other neighbors visible. If you looking for a quite get away just to relax this is the place

Perfect location! Loved the history about the home it’s beautifully renovated. We definitely plan on returning. This place is a gem!

Thank you for having us. The house was just as described and matched the listing. Extremely clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful renovation. Will definitely stay again!

Our families came to Michigan for the first time for a wedding. The Ivy house is perfection. This home sits back off a quiet road but conveniently located to all the sites! We all enjoyed the outdoor seating for morning coffee, dinners and stargazing! Will definitely return!

Great property! We enjoyed the stay

We decided on this home because it was in a central location to travel to Traverse City as our daughter was running the Bay Shore Marathon. Close to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Glenn Arbor and other peninsula locations. It was perfect for that….easy drives to all locations. We were not sure how we felt about booking a place out in the country. We quickly fell in love with the house and the peacefulness of its setting. We had all age groups with us and everyone agreed that we loved the location! The house is absolutely beautiful and the hosts thought of everything you might need. The beds are super comfortable, bathrooms are very nice and kitchen is well stocked. The outdoor patio/gazebo is so nice for sitting outside with really cool lights and the 2 person swing was a big hit with all. The kids enjoyed having lots of room outside to run around and everyone enjoyed the bean bag game they provided! The hosts are super attentive…they even have a notebook they made up with the history of the house including pictures. Very interesting. We would absolutely stay there again, it was wonderful…better than we ever imagined!

House and location were perfect. We picked a great time if year and because of the location of the property we're were able to see a good deal if the sights. Highly recommend this property.

What a beautiful home! We loved it so much we didn’t want to leave. Seriously if I could live here I would. The cleanliness was top notch, very roomy, and had everything we needed. The area was nice, secluded and spacious. Just a lovely lovely home.

Easy process . Clear instructions . I highly recommend to stay at this lovely house

I truly cannot say enough about this place. The home is immaculate. It has every modern convenience and tons of preserved history. The property owners are responsive, personable and have thought of everything. It is perfectly situated allowing easy drives to Frankfort, Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes If you are looking for a place to enjoy your vacation and make wonderful family memories, look no further.

The house is beautiful and the setting is too. Great location for anyone who wants to be able to easily visit various places in the area.

I was impressed from the minute we drove in!! The house was absolutely gorgeous inside and out and it fit our family of nine perfect! It was more beautiful than the pictures and was remarkably clean! We loved the patio and the fire pit area! Enough seating for everyone and we enjoyed the peace and quiet and the beautiful sunsets and stargazing and sitting around the fire pit. I can’t say enough about the kitchen we all were really impressed with how beautifully remodeled it was! Check in was flawless and our host was responsive. I would go back again and recommend it to anyone. Check out time was a little early and forced us to hustle a bit other than that our stay was absolutely perfect. Five stars is not high enough rating I would give it more!!

Great location, beautiful home with great amenities, and lots of room to spread out.

The Ivy House is beautifully and tastefully restored and decorated. The private location is very relaxing and yet close enough to the area attractions. Communication with the owner was positive, professional and prompt. I would strongly recommend this property and would absolutely stay again!

Ivy house is well located close to Sleeping Bear Dunes NL, peaceful, pleasant, well equipped and very clean. Sandra was very helpful and we appreciate her warm welcome. We spent very good time around the fire pit.

I would recommend this property

The house is incredible! Everything was top quality inside and out. We loved the peaceful outdoor area. Would 100% recommend.

highly recommend property

Great Place! Has everything you need inside and out! Great Location! I can't get over the beautiful views from every window.

Property is as described, in a peaceful location! The outdoor patio and swing were a hit!

What can we say, The Ivy House was the most enjoyable stay I have had to date. Sandra was an excellent host, the house was spotless and the accommodations were spot on! Extra comfy beds, more than enough room and the kitchen.... LOVE! The maple syrup was a lovely touch. We didn't want to leave but we will be sure to stay here again if we ever get back to Upper Michigan. Thanks!!

If you are truly wanting to find a private, CLEAN, well appointed home away from home, the Ivy House is just that! You will not want your time to end there! Close to villages, beaches, trails, Moomers (have to look it up), Farm to Table restaurants (Farm Club), 9 Bean Rows, shopping, numerous outdoor activities. Did I mention Moomers? Our family has been coming to the Leelanau County area for over 30 years. We have stayed in a lot of VRBO’s, Inns, B&B’s, hotels. You will not be disappointed staying here!

There really are no words to describe our experience at The Ivy House. It was magical. This place is truly special. Every day during our stay, whether rain or shine, was a pleasure. We have four young kids and were able to spread out in the house so comfortably. Everything is IMMACULATELY clean, something I appreciate so very much. The laundry room is so useful for longer stays and I wish my washer and dryer worked so well! The kitchen is well stocked and we had no issues at all with cooking our meals and having containers to store them in. The location of The Ivy House is absolutely perfect, a short drive to anywhere on the m-22, grand traverse lighthouse is 45 mins away, TC and everything it offers is between 15-25 minutes. We absolutely felt at home the second we walked in. Sandra was extremely easy to contact and I enjoyed our conversation. I am grateful we got to stay here and we hope to make it a family tradition of visiting Michigan and staying here at The Ivy House together if they will have us. It was truly lovely. Thank you, Sandra, for all of your hard work on this home. It’s beyond beautiful. We are already looking forward to coming back.

My stay was great! Loved the house & location.

Words can’t describe this property effectively. It comfortably slept and had room for our family with 5 kids and nobody complained about being crowded. The kitchen was beautiful, a huge island sat our entire family for a meal as did the dining table or the outdoor seating. Loved the old feel of the farmhouse along with the updated features. The location was perfect for us as well. A short drive to everywhere we were looking to go - the Dunes, Frankfort, Traverse City, etc. We could go out early visit a few places come back to the house to refresh and go back out later to explore some more. Communication with the host(s) was amazing as well. Questions were answered quickly and professionally. Our family only hopes there are reservations available in the future to visit again!!!

From excellent guidance of where to eat, play and explore to a wonderful place to come home to, we had a great time! Beautifully renovated farmhouse with all the amenities that makes us want to come back and visit again!!! Highly recommend!
