Waterfront holiday rentals in Grand Traverse Bay

The Airbnb was beyond expectation. Absolutely stunning and a picture perfect location. This will be our go-to location whenever in the area. Thank you, Barry!

Wonderful place to stay off-season. Exactly what we were looking for. Very convenient and effortless check-in check-out.

My partner and I’s stay at Jeffrey and Holly’s suite was outstanding. The space felt incredibly homely, with cozy decor and thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. It was spotless and well-equipped with snacks, coffee, beach amenities, you name it - and we loved using their kayaks for exploring Silver Lake. They were friendly and provided smooth check-in instructions. The price for the area far beats any hotel we could have booked considering how comfortable, clean, and private the unit was. As other reviews said, mechanical noises and footsteps can be heard, but this did not bother us at all. We loved this unit so much, we will probably check the availability for our next trip to TC. This was hands down the best AirBNB we’ve ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

We had a great time, definitely a cozy stay, enjoyed the paddleboat, our kids lived being on the lake as well. we recommend this guest suite and look forward to staying again!

Linda’s place was extremely clean, nice and cozy. Her place was just as described and she added all the amenities I needed for my stay. I liked that she was personable and paid attention to detail. I highly recommend.

We had a wonderful, peaceful stay at Daphne & Will's gorgeous home. To say they went above and beyond would be an understatement – their space was filled with tasteful decorations, thoughtful touches, and high-quality finishes and furnishings. There was no way we could use every amenity available on a short 3-day stay, but that's all the more reason to come back and enjoy the space again sometime in the future. We particularly enjoyed the fireplace, view of the trees and lake, and comfy sofa – perfect for a relaxing trip. Will and Daphne struck the perfect balance of responsiveness, giving space, and friendliness. Airbnb perfection.

We were thrilled to find a last minute cancellation at this hidden gem for our labor day weekend trip! Kathy's directions were very thorough. The best part was that she included the use of all of her water toys in the rental - there were two stand-up paddle boards, numerous kayaks and a big rectangular floating pad that the kids loved. The biggest island in the center of Spider Lake is a very doable paddle from there. This property faces north on the lake which is the perfect vantage point to see the Aurora Borealis if the conditions are right, which they were for our time! This has been on my bucket list, so I am beyond thrilled! The stars are amazing too! We all felt comfortable inside and my husband said he had one of the best sleeps he's had in a long time. The kids loved the loft beds. We just wish that the spiders of Spider Lake weren't so abundant on the docks, so our arachnophobic girls could relax more, but there's not much that could have been done about them.

Outstanding location for downtown activities in both directions on Front Street and visiting both peninsulas!

family had an amazing time and had lots of fun.

Fantastic home! We loved everything about this place. Lots of space for our family of six. House was clean, stocked with lots of amenities. Linens, towels, board games, books, kitchen supplies.. We loved the beautiful view, deck, fire pit, dock, paddle board and kayak. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!

Host was super quick to responds and sent a ton of info of things to do in the area. A very nice, peaceful time on the lake.

Place was exactly as described. Perfect location for our needs and the ability to bring our dogs was a huge plus. House was spacious and well kept. Would stay here again

We really enjoyed our stay! We were in town for a Family Reunion so didn't spend a lot of time at the house but did enjoy the sunrise each morning.

Pure heaven! One of the most peaceful, beautiful, and comfortable stays we’ve had! Pristine interior with outstanding views of lake, every amenity (including beach toys) we could have wanted. The perfect couples getaway to recharge our batteries. Would be great for young families too. Bass Lake is divine for kayaking among the lily pads and loons, watching the sunsets, or just chilling on the deck. My husband was pouting all the way home as we hated to leave. Check-in was super easy, everything was top notch start to finish. Can’t wait to rebook next year.

We really enjoyed our mothers day weekend at your place. Very peaceful and relaxing.

Beautiful home in a great location, just 10 minutes from downtown.

Thank you for a wonderful time. Great condo with beautiful views. We used the cook friendly kitchen a few times. The tv in the master was truly appreciated. We enjoyed the easy to use fireplace which warmed up the entire condo. Walking distance to right brain brewing with lots of pinball machines and to traverse city whiskey Nice bath and walking path and a super quick ride to the much loved cooperative grocery.

Overall very functional apartment for a couple in a desirable location. Very clean and decent amenities. Easy check in and check out. Comes with parking spot which is essential in that location. Fairly quiet. Door lock is somewhat finicky and took 2-3 tries to open door.

We had a great weekend. Space worked out perfectly and we were able to use the kayaks. They had everything you could want and more.

We had a lovely stay at this condo. It is located on a beautiful lake of which the living room has a gorgeous view. Access to kayaks and a fire pit were a very nice bonus! The property was clean and comfortable. Communication about our stay was great. Highly recommend!

Great place! We loved the lake and the lake views. I also loved that there was a beach and pontoon boat rentals were on-site!

Great location. You are right in the woods with the crickets and squirrels, out the back and restaurants and shopping across the parking area out the front. Laura was super responsive for a couple of small questions we had. It's a very special location and very well tended.

Beautiful condo, looks just like the listing with amazing unobstructed views of Lake Michigan. Lovely hosts, easy to contact and respond quickly to any requests. Everything was so clean and very well equipped. Can’t wait to book again!

Great spot! Walkable to all of the best places downtown Traverse and the bay have to offer.
