Traverse City Area, Family Friendly, Waterfront, Modern Home

Looking for a spot for a romantic getaway or a girl’s weekend? Need a family getaway? We’ve got just the place for you. Campfires, sweatshirts, great views…..it’s what this area is all about. The Guest House is located on a quiet, no wake lake 20 miles East of Traverse City. The house is remodeled and up to date with a beautiful kitchen, deck, lake view, kayaks, a paddle boat and hammocks. When you stay at the Guest House you’re close to wineries, shopping, fabulous restaurants and outdoor activities. Or you can just relax and enjoy the lake, watch for birds, read or catch up on your sleep. While we have internet, we don’t have a t.v. You’ll probably be so engaged in other activities, you won’t notice, but bring your own device just in case. Also, in addition to the dining table, we have a small desk in the room with the bunks, in case you need a quiet space to make a work call. There is a park with a beach area, picnic tables and grills on the other side of the lake.

Everyone deserves a clean place to stay, and we have high standards when it comes to disinfecting and cleaning for your stay. When you’re here, you’re within day trip distance of Traverse City, the Leelanau Península, Sleeping Bear Dunes, the Mackinac Bridge, Bellaire, Charlevoix, Boyne and more! Twin Birch, Timber Wolf, and Grandview Golf Courses are close by. Some of our favorite restaurants nearby are the Fife Lake Inn, Yankee Boy, and Trout Town. Groceries are available in Fife Lake or Kalkaska, and don’t miss the Cherry Street Market for veggies, deli items, baked goods and adorable garden additions. There’s lots of shopping on Front Street in TC or visit the Grand Traverse Commons (formerly a hospital for the mentally ill). GTC even has night tours of the inner workings of the facility! Harbor View Nursery and Lavender Farm is nearby and wineries and breweries abound. Our favorite is Amoritas Vinyards on the Leelanau Peninsula.
