Great place to stay

We came up to Traverse City for my weekend hockey tournament and this was the 3rd time that we’ve stayed here. Love the location and having a convenience store on the property site definitely came in handy.

Beautiful view!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Fife Lake. The balcony with the beautiful view was our favorite part. It was a great way to relax after a day of sightseeing. The bed was very comfortable. Walking distance to restaurants and there’s an ice cream shop right across the street. Very quaint town close to Traverse City and surrounding sights. The only negative thing was the hot water. It is documented to let the shower run for 5 minutes, but it never got real hot. It was warm enough for a quick shower though. We made it work. I recommend staying here if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city for a great price.
