Bryant Park and West Bay are located right across the street and guests can easily bike or walk the half-mile into town.

The space:
The condo is located within a short walk from Downtown Traverse City. It is just shy of 1,000 sqft, offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, for up to four guests. This unit is on the second floor of the condo complex. Stairs are required to enter the unit, no elevator provided!

Guest access:
Guests enter via the shared ally parking lot on the south side of the building and have access to the central stair and hallways.

Other things to note:
** The building association and parking lot has a strict, ONE PARKING SPOT PER UNIT. If you park in a spot without your unit listed, you will risk being towed (at renter's expense!) and also not allow others to park in their designated spot. Please make sure you are parked within the lines so others can also park properly.
** There is a strict no noise after 10pm (building-wide regulation), please adhere out of respect for your fellow guests.

Pets no matter the size or type are not allowed.
If you have a service animal/emotional support please reach out with proper paper work prior to booking (due to HOA policies). If not done properly, your booking is liable to be declined. If you choose to bring an animal without proper paperwork and approval from HOA you may be asked to leave the premise without a reimbursement. This process may take up to 7-14 days, please think ahead.

Once again, this condo is located on the second floor with no elevator. Please be respectful of those around you and below you!

Please note the parking lot is on the tighter side, large vehicles may have issues parking.
During your stay at this condo building, you're just a quick walk from Lake Michigan. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the condo.

Beautiful Traverse City
Enjoyed the coffee and the chocolate covered cherries. It was a bit too small for 2 couples. It’s not really walkable to downtown TC. If you have a bike it would be good. The owner is really nice. The condo was really clean.

Wedding Weekend Getaway
My husband and I and another couple were heading up to Traverse City for a wedding from Chicago. We went with an VRBO instead of hotel due to prices and so happy we did! This apartment was exactly what we needed for our short stay. Close (few minute drive) to the happening parts of Traverse. The apartment was very cute, super clean and easy to get into. Not only was the place adorable but the owners were amazing as well. Super helpful, kind, super responsive and understanding. Would definitely book with them again. Parking is tight and only one spot so be prepared for that. Overall 5 star expierence!
