This property was exactly as listed. Clean with necessary bedding, towels and misc l. Supplies. Beautiful view of the bay.

Perfect beach house, highly recommend! We will be back in the summer :)

When we first arrived we had to do some cleaning. As warned in some reviews the house was on a very busy street and you could hear the traffic from inside so definitely needed a sound machine. Otherwise the location in proximity to everything was great, the view and being on the water was amazing, check in was easy, the host was prompt in responding prior to arrival. All in all I would stay here again.

Beautiful views and close to everything. Would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay! Location was wonderful. Will stay there again.

We had 5 adults staying at the house, and we all had a wonderful time. The house was the perfect size for us. We've been to Traverse City many times, but this was our first time staying along the water. The views were stunning. We enjoyed fires in the fire pit each night while listening to the waves. The location is so close to downtown as well. All in all, it was fantastic trip!

Very nice cabin on a beautiful bay. So peaceful and comfortable

The house was perfect for our family of 4. We lounged on the porch, kayaked, swam in the lake, and had a happy hour with the neighbors. I would say the only negative was the very very busy street.

My family of 5 had a wonderful vacation at this home. It is small, but the owners have made very good use of the space and supplied many thoughtful touches to make the stay very comfortable. We will be back! Thank you, Patty and Joe!!

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely waterfront property! The property is on a busy road but still felt like a retreat behind the property fence, with the stunning view of the bay. Perfect end to each day of activities to just sit on the deck, and watch and listen to the waves hitting the beach.

House was the perfect location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and loved kayaking!

Great little house right on the bay. Was a perfect spot for my family if 3, but plenty of room for a bigger family. Close to downtown traverse city. My kiddo loves the little beach and the neighbors were friendly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing get away.

Charming cottage. Amazing views. Located on a busy road, but the house was set back and as it turns out, very centrally located for Traverse City and going toward Torch Lake.

Perfect location, very clean, right on the beach. What more needs to be said? And a special shout out to the cleaner. We arrived slightly early and she was not quite finished. Unnecessarily apologetic (we were early, she was not late) she cheerfully hustled to complete her tasks, and left us with the cleanest rental we have ever been in. Thank you!

Patty and her husband were wonderful to work with. Very friendly and accommodating! Would rent from them again. Had a wonderful stay, and hope to again, in the future!😊

Great location on the Bay. The Beach front was fabulous. The house was perfect inside. The deck was great for all of our outdoor grilling. Enjoyed our time tremendously. Will look to stay again.

Wonderful location and property!

Loved this house! Perfect location. Right on the beach with a nice grassy area too. All the space you need with everything you need! Almost hate to leave a great review so I can rent it again w/o completion (lol).

The home was very nice and clean. Our view of East Traverse Bay was beautiful while sitting on the deck, beach or the living room (lots of windows). Our 2 year old grandson really enjoyed the daily visits from the many duck families. The only suggestion for improvement would be that the deck needs some repair work, spongy in places. Also a small step stool would help in the laundry area. It was impossible to read the dryer settings. We did bring a couple of fans to use in the bedrooms. Also a couple of large garbage bags (there were kitchen garbage bags provided), our own laundry soap, shampoo and body wash. Everything else was available in the home. I would rebook this property in the future.

Thanks so much for installing a dishwasher! Had a great week!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The view is incredible! The house was clean and in good condition. The owner was responsive to questions. We highly recommend and would definitely return.

Great location 1.5 miles from downtown. We found the property clean and in great shape. We stayed 5 nights and we were out and about most of the time. Highly recommended

The place is great and has an amazing view!

Nice little cottage right on the lake. Convenient to downtown. All communications with property owner were answered quickly. Check in and out were a breeze.

Very nice location, well stocked kitchen. The property was very clean and well taken care of. The views on the lake were amazing. I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking for a spot up in Traverse City and my kids are already asking when we can come stay there again!

We visited from Spring Lake. We attended a family baby shower. Accommodations were great.

Excellent, cute cottage on the bay. Great views, good location, comfortable house. We enjoyed our weekend to the fullest.

We were unable to stay at the property due to last minute illness to ALL parties in our group. From that, I received no further communication, nor was I given any indication of the partial reimbursement that was outlined in Vrbo. My first Vrbo rental, may be my last.

Wonderful cozy home on the water, minutes from everything in in Traverse City, and an easy drive to Old Mission or Elk Rapids for wine, dining, shopping and exploring. Home was very warm and snug, even on a very cold and windy New Year's Eve day. The views to the bay were amazing, and a great way to enjoy a hot pot of coffee while preparing for the day. The home is located RIGHT off busy Munson Avenue/Street, so be ready for your turn into the driveway! It's a bit hard to spot the first time you arrive. Everything else was fantastic, highly recommend!

Property was clean and view was amazing. Close to all activities.

The good - you can't beat the view! Plenty of room for us 6 adults. We played games in the living room and had drinks out by the beach. The check-out rules are easy - remove trash, strip beds, do the dishes. Plenty of kitchenware, dishes, etc. Did I mention the amazing view? The constructive criticism (nothing worth lowering the stars): A slat under the double bed fell out twice and that bed is noisy. The bathroom only had one hand towel. With 6 adults using one bathroom, it was damp quickly so we used wash cloths to dry our hands after that. Parking - we had one small car and a suburban. Turning the suburban around was difficult when cars from the neighboring house (shared driveway) were parked in the pass-thru area. Our winery tour van had to pull onto the grass to get turned around. Also, an extra outdoor light is needed, maybe between the house and garage? It was hard to see when we arrived after dark. Need a note on the patio door on how to lock it. Haha We figured it out by trial and error. FYI - Platform queen bed (middle bedroom) is FIRM.
