Book a hotel near Forest Lakes, Traverse City

"Well laid out with lovely balcony and lake view. Very accommodating."

"Cute, quiet, and clean! Was such a great recharge weekend for me! "

"Came with 4 girl friends. Great house, clean, lake was beautiful! Had most conveniences we needed. Bring your own beach towels! We didn’t realized the bunk house was not attached. It’s above a detached garage - so consider that if coming with young kids. "

"Rob was amazing! We had lots of questions, and he responded very quickly. The property had everything you need in a great quite location with multiple lakes a couple minutes from the house. You could walk to them if you wanted. We fished plus visited both Traverse City and Elk Rapids during our stay. Only 15–20-minute drive. If you want to stay away from the busy city but close enough visit this would be a great choice! Thank you, Rob! "

"Such a quiet and relaxing lake. Will definitely be back. Hosts were wonderful!"

"The good: Super easy checkin, kitchen was adequately stocked. Inside home was very clean. Home has nice windows and view of the lake out back. Lots of space for everyone inside. Outside fire pit was nice and owner had wood available for an additional cost which was convenient. Location was close enough to Traverse City to be convenient, and worked well for our base camp for seeing the surrounding sites. Owner was super responsive and courteous. The not so good: some items such as cooking oil was expired a couple years ago. The outside space could use some work as the garden area was more of an eyesore with more weeds than garden or flowers. There was a broken down car parked that looked like hasn’t been driven in a long time with flat tires and clouded over windows. There was a cat in basement that liked to meow that could be heard at random times. I know mattresses are a point of preference, but my wife who likes a firmer mattress, even thought it was too firm for her liking. Overall: my kids gave it 4.5 stars which I think is a fair assessment. It could have been 5/5 with some love given to cleaning up the outside and some little changes to the inside. We enjoyed our stay and had no regrets. "
