About this property

Quaint Pond Suite for 2 • Clean • Cozy • Private • 25 miles to Traverse City

  • Quaint pond suite with woods in back. *We live upstairs on another level* But this private, lower-level suite features a separate entrance, a full bathroom, and a kitchenette equipped with a microwave, small toaster-oven, mini fridge w/freezer, and coffee pot. Located 30 minutes from the famous Traverse City, the space includes a washer/dryer, iron and ironing board, hair dryer, shampoo/conditioner, WiFi with streaming services, and seasonal access to two kayaks and a paddle boat. Guests can enjoy onsite trailer parking for a boat or snowmobiles, a backyard firepit, and close proximity to the very popular North Country Trail.

    ***Please note: We live upstairs, but your area is separate.*** This space is perfect for 2 guests. Across from all-sport Fife Lake and only 45 minutes from the most popular tourist attractions.

    Dine at one of our four locations in the vvillage for your convenience and enjoyment. (See guidebook).

    Your space downstairs is a large bedroom with a small living area and sofa, full bathroom with tub/shower combination, and a small kitchenette/laundry area (no sink in the kitchenette). Plenty of closet space.

    People enjoy gathering at our sandbar between the two islands or seeing the Bald Eagles and their nest on one of our islands.

    ***Guests must transport the kayaks and/or paddle boat themselves and have lifejackets on the crafts. We provide two lifejackets, and waivers signed for use.

Beautiful retreat

Relaxing place to stay. Host checked in to make sure we had what was needed and responded quickly to questions. The property is beautiful and quaint. There were wild trilliums in bloom outside the bathroom window. Fresh flowers in vase on arrival, and there were goodies in fridge and on table. Location was great for daytime adventures and we even got to see the northern lights walking around Fife lake one evening.

Best host ever! Peaceful & serene location

Tonya was the best host we have ever had! She really puts her heart into making sure her guests feel welcomed and comfortable. There were several personal touches, including fresh flowers, mints & chocolates, snacks, and cold drinks in the fridge. She thought of everything and then some! The property is so serene and peaceful, from the moment you get out of your car. It is a small town getaway that felt like home away from home. Tonya really went above and beyond!

Quaint place to visit

We came up north for a long weekend and found this location to be relaxing and so much fun. We were able to launch kayaks right down the street end enjoy Fife Lake. We were also able to visit with friends in Traverse City as it's just about a 1/2 hour ride. I would definitely recommend this place for your next stay!
