Great Stay
Have stayed at the property numerous times and it never disappoints. New management company has added improvements making it even better. Nicest short term rental property in Traverse City!
The property was amazing and has an incredible view! Well appointed unit with everything you’d need! Great location and convenient for walking pretty much anywhere. We will be back!
