Wonderful spot!

This was a perfect getaway for our family and dogs. The location is great. The house is comfortable and exactly as pictured. The beds were great. The screened in porch is not heated in the winter but the fireplace is great! It’s a quiet area but also incredibly close to traverse city. We would definitely stay again!
