Property was exactly as described. Gorgeous lakeview on the deck while drinking morning coffee. We stayed in September and it was quiet a nice reprieve after exploring the surrounding areas every day. It is close enough to Traverse City to enjoy the area and retreat to solitude. The communication was outstanding.

We all had an amazing time and stay. Everyone loved the property and they liked that fact that it was on water and not that far from downtown TC.
