On the water
Where to swim, launch a kayak or watch the boats come in, and the quiet spots that are worth the drive.
A home in Traverse City, and someone to call.
See what's in each house, and ask us anything before you book.
Why book with us directly
You talk to the people who look after the houses, by message or on the phone.
Ask before you book
How steep are the stairs? Is there a crib? How far is the walk to the water? Ask, and hear back from us.
Talk to a person
The number on this page reaches us. Call it when you're planning, and keep it for your stay.
Plan your arrival with us
Ask about check-in, the keys and parking while you're planning, so nothing's a surprise on the day.
Tell us what you need
A long stay, a late arrival, a dog in the party. We'll tell you plainly what each house can do.
Around Traverse City
A short guide to get you started. Tell us who's coming and ask what we'd pick for you.
Food and markets
Where to pick up groceries on the way in, the best market morning, and a table worth booking ahead.
Out on foot
Easy walks for all ages, longer trails for a free day, and something to do when the weather turns.
Questions guests ask
How do I check if my dates are open?
Open the home you like and follow the button on its page. If you can't find what you need, send us your dates and we'll check for you.
Can I see the full total before I book?
Ask us for the total on your dates, and what it covers, before you commit to anything.
What if I need to cancel?
Ask for the cancellation terms for your stay before you pay. If your plans change later, call us.
Can I bring my dog?
It depends on the house. A home that welcomes pets says so on its page. If you're not sure, ask.
When do I get the keys?
Each home's page lists its check-in and check-out times. Call us if anything about your arrival isn't clear.
Not sure which home fits?
Tell us your dates and who's coming, and we'll point you to the right one.
