Guesthouse on Lake Michigan
Beautiful location. Wineries close by. Near Traverse City for restaurants and shopping. Hosts were next door and friendly. Just wish we had come earlier in the year because the water was too cold for swimming. Otherwise it was a fantastic visit.

Could not have been better!
We enjoyed our stay so much that we are hoping to book again next year. The hosts were friendly and the cottage was absolutely spotless. There are plenty of nice restaurants nearby, but it was hard to leave the lovely beach just steps away from the cottage. We have rented Up North for years and this was our favorite place. Can't wait to go again.

Beautiful spot, clean dwelling. Problems with Rental: Fruit flies, Terrible TV situation, no washing machine or dryer, no garbage disposal. Owner wouldn’t allow any visitors including our disabled upper 70’s in-laws to visit for the afternoon. Had to get dog sitter to go out to eat since owner wouldn’t allow leaving pet there. Traverse City very congested. Not a good experience.

Guest house with private beach on beautiful Traverse Bay
The guesthouse on Old Mission Peninsula was clean and comfortable. The best part of us was the short walk to a private beach on the west arm of Grand Traverse Bay. We spent many hours on the sand and in the water which was warm and clear. The guesthouse was a short distance from many of our favorite wineries which we visited. Nancy and Norm were friendly hosts and made our stay memorable.

Great Location in TC Wine Country
Great location for exploring the Old Mission Peninsula. The Guest house was small but well appointed for all my adult daughter and I needed for our Up North getaway . There was a noticeable musty odor and many cobwebs but we were still happy with the setting .

Beautiful!
The property is gorgeous! The hosts are incredible too - we accidentally locked ourselves out of the guesthouse when we walked to the beach and they were able to get us back in within minutes of texting them about our situation. During our stay, we enjoyed their clean beach and downtown Traverse City (~15minute drive). Next time, we plan to stop at one of the vineyards that is conveniently between the guesthouse and downtown. We highly recommend staying here for a fun weekend trip!

Cozy and Comfortable
Really loved the location of this place, the quiet, and cleanliness. Check-in and out was seamless and our hosts were available if needed. Loved the beach and access to it as well. Will definitely rent again!

Old Mission Cottage
Nice, clean cottage for two. Beautiful, quiet area by a sandy beach. Try the casual local restaurant (Jolly Pumpkin). Check times businesses in the area and Traverse City for times open as some are closed on Tuesdays and/or Wednesdays. Certainly a great vacation!

You could hear yourself think!
It was very quiet, which we enjoyed. We wish it was a little bit closer to the water, but it is not ideal for someone with agility/balance issues. We loved the bed and the couch. The toaster didn't work well. All in all, it was a lovely escape.

An immaculate, quiet and cozy cottage
We had a lovely time! The hosts responded immediately to any questions, the kitchen has everything you might need, and the nautical art adds a personal touch. Unless you absolutely must have a king bed, this is the place to stay near Traverse City.

Perfect Spot!
The location was perfect. There is a beautiful beach and it feels like you are way out in a private spot but yet it is a close drive to all the fun and amazing things that the Traverse City area has to offer like light houses, wineries, shopping and other quaint towns to explore. And best of all they welcomed our dog too.

Quiet Beach
Lovely get away. We like the quite, off the beaten path location. Close enough for activity but feeling like a remote getaway if you’re looking for that. This is our second time at this property. We love it!

Lovely cottage on the water
The cottage was perfect for my husband and me. A short path out the back leads to a beautiful private section of the beach on Lake Michigan. Beautiful vineyards and views everywhere, and a bonus woodland hike a few minutes walk away! Nancy and her husband were delightful and happily provided recommendations for dining and wines tastings! Highly recommend!

Perfect beach getaway
The property is gorgeous with incredible beach access and view. We were looking to relax and enjoy hanging out on the water away from the crowds, so this was perfect! It is located in a convenient spot for everything. The house was updated and had everything we neesws for our stay. The owners were eager to make sure we had everything and that our stay was great. We would definitely come back again and recommend to others.
