About this property

Great for Families - Northern Mitten Suites #3

Located at the base of Old Mission Peninsula, a short drive for world class views and wine tasting! 4 sandy beaches within approximately a mile of our house. Live like a local and make yourself at home in our 2 bedroom suite.

This apartment is all yours! The beach, coffee and restaurants all within 1.5 blocks. Downtown TC shopping & restaurants 8 blocks (about a mile). Queen sized beds in each bedroom. Full size and twin size sofa sleepers for extra sleep space. Kitchenette with Keurig coffee maker, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, electric fry pan, dishes and wine glasses for after your Peninsula wine tour.

There are lots of things to do in our area: Beaches - Bryant Park Beach, Senior Center Beach, Sunset Beach and Clinch Park Beach all within approximately a mile; Biking - try the TART Trail which connects you to resorts, shops, restaurants, parks and the waterfront - we do have a bike rack but we also have great bike rental shops in town; Hiking check out the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy for spectacular nature trails; rent a kayak, a paddle board to use on Grand Traverse Bay; chill out and try a SUP yoga class; visit the "Most Beautiful Place in America" by taking a drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes; root for the home-team and see the Traverse City Pit Spitters in action in their outdoor stadium; go back in time with a visit to the 1950's at the Cherry Bowl Drive-In.

For shopping go downtown or to the Mercato located at Grand Traverse "Commons" for cute boutiques; farmer's market - Sara Hardy market downtown or at the Commons or try farm stands on a drive around Old Mission Peninsula while you are wine tasting. Wine tasting is awesome in our little slice of heaven but for those of you who are more inclined towards beer we have lots of craft breweries in town. We have great restaurants downtown ranging from eclectic to high end. Grab a bite at Little Fleet (gathering of food trucks, check out their live music schedule) or try the roof tops at the North Bar or Pangeas Pizza. Most of our restaurants have pick up or delivery available if you decide to eat alfresco.

This suite is accessed at the side of the house from a paved sidewalk. It has charming angles due to the age of the home that make this a unique get away. There is WIFI and cable TV. The living space and bedrooms have TVs with a Smart TV in the living space so you can stream your own movies if you would like. Bathroom contains a shower/tub combination; the tub is deep if you would like a nice soak. The house contains 3 apartment suites all with individual entrances and a commercial space rented to a law firm also with a separate entrance. Access to the parking lot is through the alley which runs behind the building.

We have always taken cleaning seriously because we want our guests to be happy and feel like they can fully relax in our space. With today's environment we want you to rest assured that we are looking out for your safety. Our apartments are aired out in between guests, they are cleaned and then they are disinfected with special attention to given to touch points. Sheets and towels are all laundered with disinfectant. The apartment is inspected after cleaning and disinfecting to ensure that our standards are being met. Anyone who enters the apartment for cleaning and/or inspection is evaluated for health concerns and not allowed to work if there is any concern.

We have 3 apartments in one building for families or special get togethers where the group wants to vacation together but have their own space at the end of the day. All apartments have separate entrances.

Our house is properly zoned for hosting short-term guests and with the recent remodel received all of the appropriate building inspections and upgrades including a fire sprinkler system. We also do have security cameras which capture the exterior of the building including the parking lot and entrances to the building.

We are licensed by the City of Traverse City

Lovely Girls’ Weekend!

What an absolutely amazing trip that started with thoughtful communication from Stacey. The reviews are correct! Stacey is kind, caring, and was on the ready for help and great recommendations for the area. She even guided us toward chasing Northern Lights…which we saw and were out of this world! The apt was cozy and convenient to all our Traverse City exploring! We look forward to visiting again. Thank, Stacey, for your kindness…it was such a wonderful experience! Danielle

This place was amazing! The owners have thought of everything right down to homemade fresh chocolate chip cookies upon arrival. We are a family of 4; 2 adults, 14 year old and 11 year old. It was perfect for us. Highly recommend and if we are ever back in Traverse City, we would stay again,

Amazing rental and wonderful host!

I booked this rental my family and in-laws. From the start, my situation got complicated but Stacy was so helpful and accommodating. The location is less than a mile from downtown Traverse City and 3 blocks from a great small beach and playground -the location is perfect. I would recommend to anyone, maybe not with the whole extended family next time 😉

Convenient

We decided to make a stop over for the night in Traverse City since we haven’t been in the area in many years. We enjoyed the day visiting Suttons Bay, Northport and Leland. We were able to check in relax and then have dinner at a wonderful restaurant in the Mission Peninsula. The apartment was really convenient to all the areas.

Amazing host!

The location and charm of the property were awesome, but the host made this an extra special stay. There were cookies waiting for us on the counter, board games to keep the kids entertained while we sipped coffee after a long drive, and every different possible “thing” you could forget while packing for a beach trip. We also appreciated the little things like giant comfy blankets and noise machines in each room. The bed felt like a cloud and we all had a peaceful night’s rest. We would highly recommend!

Short get away

The property was clean and well stocked with items needed! The property was close to restaurants and shopping downtown. Despite road conditions for construction, it was still really easy to navigate. Actually gave us the opportunity to see the gorgeous houses on the side roads! Loved this place and will come again. Also really spacious if there were more of us!

About the host

Hosted by Stacey

Host profile image
I am local to the area and love it. I do not live on site but will always be available if you have questions or concerns.

Why they chose this property

The property has a lot of character and affords our guests privacy and space to stretch out a little after a busy day.

What makes this property unique

We have 3 apartments in one building for families or special get togethers where the group wants to vacation together but have their own space at the end of the day. All apartments have separate entrances.

We are close enough to downtown to walk but enough removed to get away from the busyness. We have lots of parking so that should never be an issue for our guests. Located at the base of Old Mission Peninsula for great wine tasting/site-seeing. Close to four sandy beaches (Bryant Park Beach, Senior Center Beach, Sunset Beach and Clinch Park Beach). In our renovation we have taken steps to ensure your safety on our property by installing hard-wired smoke/carbon monoxide detectors, sprinkler system and exterior security cameras. We have been inspected and comply with all local regulations.
