About this property

Penthouse on Park - 501 | Best Location!

Summary:
This top floor luxury condo in the heart of Downtown Traverse City is a fantastic home base for a great Northern Michigan vacay! **Newly renovated kitchen and living room 2024**
Sharp decor, new modern fixtures, spacious bedrooms- both with KINGS - and every convenience you can imagine. Terrific central location, just steps from world class restaurants, lively bars, and local shops. Just two blocks from beautiful West Bay's marina and beaches.

The Space:
Located on the 5th floor (no shared walls - extra quiet!) of a new luxury mixed-use building, this condo has an expansive view of Park and State Streets from the huge living space windows, with the gorgeous natural landscape in the distance.
Sip your morning drip coffee on the cute private balcony. Relax and catch up with friends in the comfy and light- filled living room. Cook up a meal in the modern kitchen and enjoy it at the marble breakfast bar. Unwind in the spacious guest bedroom, or claim the primary suite with its flatscreen TV, walk-in closet, king bed, and spacious en-suite bathroom.
The sofa in the living room pulls out to a queen size bed. Perhaps most importantly, step onto Park Street and take advantage of all Traverse City has to offer!

As a great bonus, this condo has a large in-unit laundry room with some essential supplies to make sure you can keep your clothes fresh!

The TV's have streaming capabilities ONLY.
This condo is 1,400 square feet in size.

Wonderful weekend get away with adult sons.

We looked at the weather and decided we needed a last minute and much earned get away with our adult sons, one on fall break at MSU, to do some fall color viewing and cider tasting. The property exceeded expectations. We stay in VRBOs quite often and the cleanliness, friendliness of the host, nice little extra amenities like coffee and a bottle of wine, and a perfect location really set this propery apart. We will definitly stay here again. stayIncredibly

Highly Recommend

This property lived up to expectations. The location was great, the communication with the property management was excellent, and the apartment was spectacular. This place had it all; walking distance to all the great spots downtown, great views, more than enough space for two adult couples. The communication was clear with the host and check in/out instructions were a breeze. I would highly recommend this property and host, we will definitely be booking this property again in the future.

Perfect location for Iceman weekend

The girls stayed at this lovely apartment while the guys camped at the race site for IceMan weekend. We loved the proximity to shops and restaurants. The high end finishes, accents, blinds etc really made the place feel upscale. The host Katy was very responsive and helpful when a question arose. I would highly recommend this place and plan to rent here again.

Spring getaway

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely condo in downtown TC. We always love our time in northern Michigan and this trip was no exception. The condo is spacious, comfortable, and clean and had every amenity one looks for in a rental. Communication with the rental agency was superb. We definitely hope to be back soon!

Perfect location, great condo!

Love the location. Love that you have 2 king size beds!!! Love that you had trash bags, paper towels, laundry detergent, etc. Only quirk of the condo is the living room area… and that’s the builders issue, we moved furniture so it was easier to see the tv. Overall a great place and we will be back! Katy was FAB with communication!

Perfect location

Amazing views and excellent beds! The kitchen is fully stocked and the layout is perfect for a family or couples to enjoy easily. The towels are fantastic, I know that might seem like an odd thing to notice but so many rentals have super cheap towels and linens. The beds are both very comfortable and they had plenty of extra linens if needed. You are able to walk the entire downtown easily and get to many restaurants without having to drive anywhere. So it’s a perfect location if you don’t want the hassle of parking or finding and Uber. The host was very responsive and they answered questions quickly even over a holiday. We will be back again soon!

Great Getaway!!!!!

This condo was amazing! It was exactly as listed. Very clean, well stocked, comfy, had everything we needed and host was very quick to respond to questions we had. We spend a lot of time in the condo just relaxing and catching up with our friends from the east side. It was so easy to go out for a couples hours for shopping, drinks or food. Very centrally located. And the bottle of wine that welcomed us was a very nice gesture. Thanks again Katy for a wonderful place to stay. We will be back soon!

Great getaway!

We popped up to TC for a long weekend over winter break. The condo was spacious, clean, and convenient to our downtown activities. The amenities were top notch and the communication with the property manager/owner was seamless. Unloading/packing the car was a little tricky with only a couple metered spots in front of the entrance. Once those spaces are occupied, you need to get a little creative. Our family of four had plenty of room and enjoyed the condo thoroughly!

Location is Key

We’ve stayed in this building several times. All the units are the same. Only the decor is different. We stay here solely for the location. It’s walking distance to everything downtown, so it makes it super convenient. The view is the same from any floor so it doesn’t much matter that this is the top floor. The elevator in this building is exceptionally slow, so having to walk five floors because of the slow elevator is somewhat inconvenient. The most inconvenient part of this particular unit is that it’s the top floor and the birds are ridiculously loud. More so than any other level. So much so that they include earplugs on the nightstands Before-warned that the birds will wake you up at 5 AM every morning. Since it is downtown, you are subject to traffic noise and garbage trucks as well. This unit is by far the most expensive unit in the building and the prices in this building have doubled in the last couple years. Overall you’re paying for the location. The units are furnished well and have everything you need for your stay, the living area is rather small. The management company that they use communicates well prior and during the stay. If you’re looking for location and don’t mind the noise of the birds, or wearing earplugs to bed, this is a good choice.
