My Sister and I had a little “sisters Trip” here at the Historic Hearth. It was very comfortable and clean and in the most amazing building. There are wonderful little shops in the Mercato on the ground floor as well as restaurants. We ate at Trattoria Stella and had an amazing dinner. We will definitely return!

Very stylish with high ceilings, abundant light, exposed brick, charming and impeccably clean. My only suggestion would be a good edit of the check-in instructions, which are a bit confusing.

If you are looking for a great place to stay for two; this is your property. It has so much character and is decorated beautifully. We had all the amenities we needed and more. The Cherry Festival was going on which was a plus. We enjoyed the dunes, an old general store, great food and breweries and wineries. Parking was never an issue. You won't regret this choice.

Our trip didn’t quite go as planned. The day after we arrived we both became ill and tested positive for Covid. So we spent our trip hunkered down on the very comfy couch or in the equally comfy bed! We missed the Cherry Festival and the parade, and all that Traverse City has to offer. So we shall return!

We just came up for one night. My significant other has enjoyed staying at the old state hospital, but it was my first time. I will be going back as 1 night just wasn't enough. The condo was beautiful, very well stocked with the amenities. Clean and easy process.
