Great place to stay!

We rented this loft style condo for a weekend and it was great! Very clean, cozy, and welcoming! Plenty of room in the loft, with a very comfy bed and clean living and bathroom areas. A quick drive to the downtown areas (about 2-3 minutes) and the coffee shop and other shops on site were pretty neat. Will definitely try to book this again next year!

I wont stay anywhere else in TC

We had the best time at Chelsea's property. I love the little community that surrounds the Village. The unit is 3 stories high and is already on the top floor. The adjacent patio is the best place to spend the day. The beds were comfy and we had everything we needed including great communication from the owner.

Great time in Traverse City

We came from Georgia for a surprise visit to family in the area. Both my parents worked at the hospital in the late 60's early 70's so we got the best tour imaginable. What a neat location for a rental, beautiful buildings, beautiful water, and downtown shopping all so close!! We loved it! Thank you so much for allowing us to share your home.

Really enjoyed it, would stay again

We loved everything about our stay. The grounds at the Village were beautiful! Our host was great, she checked in on us on the first day just to ensure all was well. We had no issues with our property. We enjoyed learning about the history and highly recommend the flashlight asylum tour. We were close to everything, great food, beaches and a short drive from the dunes. We will definitely be back! Oh and don’t forget brunch at Redspire! You’ll love it.

Wonderfully unique location in Traverse City

If you are looking for a different place to stay next time you visit Traverse City I recommend the Commons. The location is full of history, shopping, and close to downtown. If I have any suggestions it would be the cleanliness could have been a bit more thorough.

Great location! A short drive to downtown TC, wineries, and restaurants. Chelsea was responsive to all inquiries. The kitchen had minimal cookware (saucepans, skillets, etc.), but it was manageable. The area was quiet and parking was close to the unit.

4th of July extended weekend

I don't usually complain about a property that I have rented but I was very disappointed in this unit. The unit was dirty, lots of dust on the furniture lots of cob webs throughout. The kitchen sink didn't look like it had been cleaned in a long time it looked and felt very greasy. The furnishings were extremely sparse from the furniture to the kitchen furnishings. The dish soap was so diluted that it didn't even make suds for washing dishes. There were no dish rags or dish towels and no hair blower (which was included as an item furnished). The kitchen furnishings are all mismatched, looks like they came from a thrift store or garage sale. The unit needs some major TLC or a complete remodel. The building and the grounds are beautiful but not this unit. The furnishings are old and mismatched. The TV is smaller than a computer monitor. The roof top deck is amazing but there was only 2 old folding chairs and a rusty table to use. (I'm so glad we brought our own bag chairs but a nice table and chairs with an umbrella would be a great addition). If you are looking for a nice, updated fully furnished unit - please look elsewhere.

I loved staying at Chelsea’s place in the old state hospital. There is so much to do and explore just in that little area that you could just stay put there for a little vacation. The apartment was well lit, in a great location and communication with the host was easy. Would definitely like to book another trip next time I’m in Northen Michigan!
