Great space in a great location!

Great space within walking distance to everything. Fantastic amenities, super clean, and all around great space for an adult getaway. Highly recommend. Only complaint would be the lack of parking spaces available. One free spot for 6 adults is not so convenient. Additional free parking was offered outside of town.

Great Location and Accommodations

We chose this condo because of the size for our family and the location within walking distance to everything downtown. We were pleasantly surprised by how well appointed the condo itself was. It is obviously well decorated but the owner also considered all of our travel needs. From the moment that we entered the condo we felt welcomed and appreciated.

Fabulous property

The apartment was in great condition and had all the right amenities. It was in a great location right on the main road but the downside to this is that during the early morning when people are commuting to work etc it was loud. Out of the owners hands but if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs. It was not deter me from renting here again!

10 Minutes Walking Distance From Downtown Traverse

WoW! This property is exactly like the photo! Very spacious and comfortable for a family of 4. The 3 bedrooms have a generous supply of storage units for clothing; even provided plenty of hangers! The 2 bathrooms and washer and dryer were a Big help since we walked the sandy Sleeping Bear Dunes. The condo is only 5-10 minutes walking distance to downtown Traverse, awesome coffee shops and breakfast places that also include additional spacious outdoor seating. Our condo Hostess, Jane was "the Best"! Jane was readily available & accommodating for any questions. Thank you Jane for the big screen smart tv; it provided great end of day family movie time together. This condo will definitely be our go to spot when we return to Traverse City for a family trip!

Our Stay

Stayed here for a weekend in late Spring for a destination ultra marathon race with friends. The property was excellent, well maintained, and the host is very sweet and communicative. Being within walking distance of all our favorite places was super helpful especially after the race when walking was tough. Everyone had their own separate rooms, bathrooms were gorgeous, and walking downtown was a breeze. Loved our stay!

Fun Weekend Stay Up North

Six of us were looking for a spot to celebrate birthdays and graduate school graduations and decided on Traverse City. We found the perfect spot to house our little group at Jane's condo. Clean, well equiped, perfect location to walk to shops and beach...easy drive to wineries! Had a lovely time and would highly recommend.

Perfect Stay!

We were in town for a family wedding and opted to stay here rather than the Park Place hotel on the other end of the block where the reception was held. We were so glad we did! Jane’s condo was clean, modern and perfect for us! Our group was myself, my sister, brother, and our spouses. We came up Friday, ate at the Filling Station (yum!) then came back and hung out for the evening. The beds were comfy and we had plenty of space to hang out and get ready for the wedding on Saturday. The kitchen was very well appointed and had everything we needed to cook a huge breakfast. We also noticed and enjoyed the heated bathroom floor! Overall, we were very impressed and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again the next time we are in Traverse City!

About the host

Hosted by Jane Kendra

Host profile image
We have lived in traverse City for over 20 years. We both grew up in southern Michigan, lived out west for a few years and decided to move to beautiful northern Michigan. Our new jobs landed us in Traverse City and we raised our family here. Our condo was built in 2015 and served as the location of Ray’s Architecture firm. He moved his business to a different location in 2020 and we have converted the condo into our future retirement home. Until then, we are excited to share our personal paradise with travelers from near and far. The location and the unique open layout is one of our favorite things about the condo. We are on the edge of downtown with restaurants within view of the front door. Downtown is two blocks away and the beach is an additional two blocks. There is so much to do in Traverse City and being able to walk downtown and to the beach is the ultimate in convenience.

We are available to answer any questions you have about local events and where to go for just about anything (breakfast, beaches, shopping) to make your visit to Traverse City more memorable. If there is anything you need for your visit or the condo, please don’t hesitate to ask us!
