We would love to host you in Traverse City tonight in this popular 2-story downtown condo! Booking now for remaining dates this Summer and for the Fall!

You deserve every minute of your vacation to recuperate and unplug by watching the waves, basking in the sunshine, and taking advantage of all of the activities on Front Street.

Sip your favorite beverages on the balcony as you wake up with the sun and watch the boats pass by in the Bay, or head to the grassy green space of adjacent F&M Park for a picnic lunch.

Go for a walk along the beach paths and TART trail just steps out the door. Throw your clubs in the car and enjoy the proximity of awesome golf courses, or book a group tour of the wineries and breweries that pepper the peninsulas. Pack along your bikes and secure them during your stay at the unit’s bike racks. Don't forget your fishing poles!

Comfortable Space and Great Location

My wife, daughter, and I truly enjoyed our stay in this Traverse City condo. There was plenty of space for us in the living room, dining room, and kitchen on the first floor. My wife and I really enjoyed the balcony with the view of West Traverse Bay. The bedrooms and bathrooms on the second floor were perfect for us. We also appreciated the short walk to the stores, restaurants, and the City Opera House downtown. Plus, it was a great home base to explore the area, from the peninsulas to Charlevoix. We would stay here again on our next trip to Traverse City.

Great Location and Space!

West Bay fun-filled TC getaway was very much as advertised. The location was fantastic. Easy walking to downtown and beach, view of the bay from the balconies, and very convenient parking - which not all similar properties in TC have. The living area and kitchen were roomier than anticipated and the bedrooms with en-suites had ample space. The condo is very clean and comfortably decorated. Board games were a bonus for our family. We highly recommend!

Excellent condo downtown TC adjacent

Very clean and well appointed vacation rental, can't beat having 2 balcony's with a water view, and walk 5 min to beautiful downtown TC shops, nice little Sunset Beach area and park across the street not as busy as Clinch Park which is still walkable. Perfect location and easy parking. Great host communication and instructions. Would definitely stay again with the wife and kid!

Great condo with excellent location

We visit TC frequently and this was our first time at this condo. Location is excellent for walking downtown and driving to other destinations around TC. Parking was easy. Condo has a good layout with two bedrooms/baths upstairs and a half bath downstairs. View of the lake is a plus. We are already making plans for our next trip in December. We were very happy with the overall experience.

TC with a view

Overall the property was great! Location, checkin process, cleanliness, and kitchen amenities. We had our bikes and loved that we could get on the trails from the unit. We biked up to Suttons Bay and on the Mission peninsula. Only drawback to the place was the lack of extra towels and having to wash the sheets from the sofa sleeper. By the way, the sofa sleeper was very comfortable for one person. We hope to be back.

Family Getaway

This condo was wonderful! It was a clean, safe, and convenient place for my husband and his older parents to stay. Parking was close, check in a breeze and the condo was clean and comfortable! Sitting in the deck in the morning to read and drink tea was enjoyable and every night we took the short walk to downtown Traverse City for dinner and/or drinks. Kurt was easy to get ahold of and accommodating even though there were no problems that needed to be dealt with. I’ve stayed in Traverse City before, but this was my favorite place that we have stayed and I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again!

Great location and comfortable accommodations

This is a condo a little off Front Street and across the street from a small beach park. Easy access to the Downriver TC area and surroundings. The unit was spacious and homey. The two and a half baths worked out perfectly. The unit faced the water so it was very nice to sit on a balcony and see sailboats in the harbor. Peaceful! I would recommend. Although with all VRBO hosts, they did have some weird rules like wanting you to wash ONE extra towel if you used it which doesn't make sense because someone would be washing all the other towels anyway. Same with sheets for the pullout couch. If the sheets for the beds are stripped and someone would be washing them, why do I have to wash them. I brought something from home to avoid all that ridiculousness.

Perfect space and location

If you are visiting Traverse City for the wineries. This is where you want to stay. It is in the perfect location to visit Old Mission Peninsula one day, and then spend a day or two visiting Leelanau wineries. Some people might like visiting the winery owned by Madonna's parents, but I enjoyed visiting Mari Vineyards owned by Marty Lagina of The Curse of Oak Island fame. After visiting wineries, you will find this rental is a very short walk to the shops, restaurants, and bars in downtown Traverse City. In the morning, you will find TC has no shortage of coffee shops, but you should check out Bubba's bar and grill for their breakfast even if you were there drinking the night before. We came to TC for the wineries, and this rental made everything even better. The rental is extremely clean, modern, and is fully stocked with everything you would need if you decided to stay in and cook after returning home from sightseeing. Some people will be happy to know that there is a television, and the cable works fine. We went in early November, so it was too cold to go to the beach and put our toes in the water, but the water is also within walking distance of this rental. Would I stay in this rental again? Absolutely! Would I recommend this rental to others? Absolutely!

Location Perfect

Kurt's property was exactly what I was looking for as it checked all the boxes for me: walkable to coffee shops, shopping, and restaurants. The property was just as described and the view from the balcony was great. Kurt was responsive when needed for clarification on restaurant locations and condo particulars. I would definitely stay again.

Great location

We’ve stayed in these condos many times. The location is great, easy walk to restaurants and shops in downtown TC. The TART Bike trail is easily accessed and the trail is paved and well maintained. The unit was well appointed. The only negative is TV viewing. The TV is internet capable and all viewing is by streaming. You need to use your own streaming services. The bandwidth on the internet could be faster for streaming.
