Great room
If you don't need to be walking distance to downtown, this property is great. The room was spacious, clean, and had a great open feel to it with a pretty view. It is on a busy road that is loud, so it's tough to enjoy the view from the porches, but it is still very pretty from the room. We would be happy to stay again.

Sunset view of Traverse Bay
Room is right size with common areas for larger gatherings for TV, games and eating if you have multiple people you are traveling with. Sleeping was a delight the bed is very comfortable. Although you are close to M31, night traffic calms down and traffic notice is not bothersome. Traverse Bay is front and center so you have a very nice view of a sunset. Short drive to restaurants (our favorite was The Cottage) and activities.
