is a paved trail through the woods and over the streams, that runs for many miles. Hop on our
bikes and take a beautiful ride through the woods of Leelanau County or a 10 minute ride into
Traverse City. There are also many golf courses within the area. If you are into tennis, there are
rackets available to play tennis.


The home comes complete with linens and towels. The kitchen is

traveler reviews for this traverse city house rental

Not a good family place

boojmann (South Lyon, MI, USA)
Review submitted: August 14, 2012   Date of arrival: July 21, 2012

This property is cluttered with too many knick knacks!!! No room in any bathroom for your tolietries. Dangerous steps leading to backyard that provided one of my guests with 22 stitches in the lip at Munson Hospital. The hot water heater runs out of hot water after 2 showers. No dishwasher in kitchen.

Owners response: I would like to respond to the only negative review we have had in our 5 years of renting this home. I wish I could post the text messages received from this renter during their stay, saying what a "wonderful home" we have and the great time they had there. I do admit that we do not have a dishwasher however we have never received a complaint about it.  Everything was fine with this group and they enjoyed their stay until I questioned them about items missing from our home and how a large container of fish food was dumped into the pond (most likely by one of the children) and clogged the whole system. I withheld money from their deposit to cover the items that are missing, (which I would rather have the items back) and the cost to unplug the pond system. This negative feedback is a result of us trying to recover our cost. We have had many family reunions and gatherings in this home by renters and it is very family oriented. I feel terrible if someone did actually fall but our steps are just normal steps. As for the bathrooms, I'm baffled! There is counter space in all 3 bathrooms and the water heater is brand new and we have never run out of hot water. To sum things up, we have many repeat renters every summer and some since we started renting 5 years ago. I believe that speaks for itself.

Thanks for sharing your home!

Review submitted: February 9, 2010   Date of arrival: July 24, 2009

We enjoyed staying in your lovely home by the bay! We especially enjoyed having coffee outside on the deck every morning and watching all the birds, squirrels and other "critters". Our girls took turns feeding the Koi twice a day! We really enjoyed the pond area! We took walks twice a day through the neighborhood and visited "Maury" the cat who lives several doors down. Thank you guys so much for the wine-we ended up going to Omena and bought 6 bottles! We also visited the French village of Charlevoix and that was very quaint!
