The property was better than the pictures! A beautiful secluded location with only nature around you. We had a fire one night and all the makings were provided. Dawn went above and beyond on the comfortable decor, quality bedding, and the original artwork. She made us feel welcomed immediately upon opening the door. Would definitely stay again!
The property was newly remodeled with 3 decent sized bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. It came equipped with all of the essentials in the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. We even had access to the single car garage.
House was extremely clean, and decorated beautifully 1/2 mile from the road and very peaceful. There was a birdhouse in the front yard attracting all sorts of birds to watch as well as a hummingbird. Beds were very comfortable.
The only reason our rating was a 3 had to do with the accuracy of the listing. We thought there was a hot tub and spa tub. These were not there This was a mistake on VRBO part and not the owner. This was one of the reasons we chose the place so this was disappointing to us.
The other mistake was stating that it was a 2 minute walk to the lake. The property said not lake front/ access, but we thought there was a path to take to get there. Again one of the reasons we selected the property. The owner did say we could go through their property, but we were right in their back yard. We didn’t want to intrude.
Other than that everything was as stated
My family just had a wonderful stay at Parker Place. It is such a beautiful house that could comfortably accommodate 8 people. Short drive to downtown Traverse City, Sleepy Bear National
Lakeshore and Fishtown etc. What’s more, Dawn is sooooo nice and considerate. I would highly recommend Parker Place to anyone traveling to northern Michigan. Thank you Dawn, we miss you and your beautiful house!!
A really great place. Host was awesome and left kids s’mores making supplies. Loved the area and the house was very clean. The art was cool and the fire pit was a great amenity. Well done and thank you!
Great location and price. Close to TC and easy to get to Lake Michigan, Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore, and vineyards. Well stocked home with access to beach chairs, well stocked outdoor fire pit area with wood and kindling. Welcome basket. Very clean and comfortable for 5 middle aged women on a ladies weekend. Highly recommend.
We came into town for a bachelorette trip and enjoyed our time very much! Dawn was a great host and made everything very easy! The house was very clean and homey feeling. The location of the house was great too! We enjoyed our time at Parker Place and would definitely come back again :)
We stayed at Parker Place for a girls weekend in Traverse City and everything was perfect! The home is absolutely stunning, very clean, and located 15 minutes outside of Downtown Traverse City. Our host, Dawn was an absolute gem and went above and beyond for us.
Highly recommend, will stay again!
Very nice place had everything we needed great location really loved the area. House was very clean and communication was great, definitely will stay here again.
The home was impeccably clean and fully equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay near Traverse City. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and comfortable visit!
You never know for sure what your getting. Very clean, quiet, short drive to traverse city and winery's. Plenty of room for six adults. Hospitality from dawn was great !
We loved this house for our girls trip! Very cute, very clean and all arpund perfect. Took us 15 minutes to get to down town traverse and 45 minutes to get to torch lake!
Parker Place is the perfect vacation setting for an up north trip. The home is adorable and every detail has been considered to make your stay enjoyable. Highly recommend the property and the host. 5 stars!
Great spot for our group to stay during a wedding at Timberlee Hills. Everything was incredibly clean, updated, and well stocked. Little touches everywhere (like the s'more kit) show how thoughtful these hosts are.
This was a wonderful place to stay for a girl's trip! From the time you walk in, you feel comfortable. The home is decorated beautifully and the setting of the home is very peaceful. The host Dawn was the best! Stay here...you'll be so glad you did!
We were so pleasantly surprise by the quality of this home and its furnishings. It was beautifully decorated and it was obvious from all the little things that a lot of thought was given for those of us who would stay there. Not only was it a perfect location to so many activities, they even had a well crafted, and stocked, fire pit area that was perfect for s'mores. We all came away as big fans of "Parker Place."
Parker Place was the perfect home-away-from-home for our family trip. We were a family group of 6 women over the age of 40, that included 3 pair of sisters. The home was even more beautiful than the photos, including an amazing number of amenities and unique surprises. Dawn presented us with an immaculate, freshly decorated, comfortable space for our stay in a location close to all of the tourist areas we wished to visit. Our host responded to any needs or questions we had with expedience and kindness, respecting our privacy while making herself unassumingly available if needed. We highly recommend Parker Place for anyone visiting the Traverse City area, and hope to return ourselves one day.
We loved our stay at Parker Place. The house was immaculately clean, decorated so nicely and had everything we needed. I only wish we could’ve stayed longer! Would definitely come back!
