About this property

Home by the Bay

A beautiful 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath home on a generous lot. This house has a large living room, the kitchen is quite spacious and a large master suite. The library is a great office/study place but there is also a great space. There is a 5th non-conforming room on the lower level for additional space. A delightful home just minutes from downtown Traverse City & Equestrian Festival

Great home for large families or in our case, a guys golf outing.

Five guys stayed here while 4 were in motor coaches 10 mins down the road. Property and bedrooms are as pictured and were very comfortable. The hosts left a 6 pack of nice beer to welcome my guys which was a touch of class!

Great place for a family!

Our whole family stayed here during the Bayshore Marathon this year. The place is huge, plenty of room to sleep, is clean, and has a big yard. Family friendly. It's also a pretty short drive to Traverse City, but far enough that it's quiet. Definitely recommend.

Location location location

This is an older home with a lot of charm. The extras that the owner provided were over the top. The owner was exceptionally good at communication. Location was perfect and a very quiet neighbourhood. We had so much room to chill away from others. Again, the amenities were top notch

Softball weekend

Sandro was prompt in communication, willing to answer any questions, and provided us some flexibility with check in and out times. The house was clean and met all the needs of the families that stayed there. It’s is located in a nice quiet setting with a view of the bay. We will be back there when we go back up to play!!

Great property, great stay, great hosts

House was clean and huge, lots of sleeping options - TVs everywhere. Hosts were super responsive and very accommodating. Tons of extras: coffee, bottled water, snacks. Could not have asked for anything more. We had a great time.

So much room

This house is so spacious it's unbelievable. Check in was super easy. There are so many sitting areas, we didn't even use all of them. Host went well above and beyond by leaving snacks, drinks, restaurant recommendations, coffee and all the extras. Everything was so well stocked, from cozy blankets to snuggle in, thick towels, and a kitchen with all rhe amenities. Neighborhood was quiet and safe. Air conditioning worked well also. We were a group of six and there was plenty of room. I would recommend this property for sure.
