Great Condo!
This is the second time our group has stayed at this condo, and we came back because it is a very nice unit, including garage access, and its in a great part of town. The host was great at communicating with us prior to and during the stay as needed. I would happily make it a 3-peat next fall.

Weekend Family Wedding
We enjoyed our stay at Boardman Basecamp. We have 3 adult children and to be able to spread out and sleep comfortably is a challenge when we go on vacations and get away weekends. Staying here was perfect for us. This place is very clean, in a safe location and spacious. Thank you for helping make our first trip to Traverse City a great one! We enjoyed TC shopping and dining. We ventured to Torch Lake and kayaked to the sandbar, went to Leland Fishtown, (which is the cutest!) and enjoyed the family wedding at a vineyard. Michigan is beautiful!

Great place!
We really enjoyed our stay here! Exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway. Clean and cute with a well stocked kitchen. I would only say that the pictures need to be updated on the website, as there is not a room with two twin beds. I had chosen this property because I thought I would need that extra bed. I also asked the property manager to confirm that they had those two beds but never heard back. It ended up not being a big deal since we had one friend who couldn’t come. Great place though!

We loved our stay here. Centrally located to just about everything we wanted to do. Very clean, perfect amenities, abs welcoming vibe. Kids enjoyed the toys and their bedrooms.

Wonderful stay!
The listing appeared just as described on the website. It was perfect for me, my husband, my 3.5 yo daughter and 1.5 yo son. I loved that this apartment had everything we needed for the kids. They had 2 big drawers full of toys in the living area, a pack-n-play, high chair, and baby gates. Pros: Comfortable Clean Affordable Safe Quiet Well stocked kitchen Dishwasher Good Wi-Fi Smart TV Good window blinds Cons: I don’t even think this is really a con, but the neighborhood looked a bit industrial. It did not diminish the comfort of the apartment. I would definitely stay there again if we come back to Traverse City. 👍🏼

One of the best equipped rentals I’ve stayed in
We stayed for a girls weekend. The location is great. Walkable to downtown I’m nice weather. Quick drive to downtown, the village commons, old mission and leelenau. This rental was well equipped - nice kitchen utensils. Very well equipped for families with young children. Had a pack and play, potty seat, toys a and childrens books. Space was clean, welcoming and comfy. I would stay here again with friends or family.

Base Camp is a good name
Our group was 4 adults in town for a Cycling Event, and this location served us well. Located close to dining and bike shops was a plus. The space was clean, well stocked and ready to go when we arrived. We have rented homes in the area at other times, but this was the first one with a garage space which was a plus. Overall, we were very happy with the accommodations and location and everyone in our group felt the pricing was fair. Would definitely stay again on future trips

Home away from home.
This property was perfect for our family travels to Traverse City. We had 5 adults and 2 small children. The house was equipped for small children with everything we needed. The house was in a great location to downtown. Rented bikes and explored the town, water and lakes. I would recommend this property. The management team was awesome and answered questions with a quick response. Really enjoyed our stay and so will you.
