Twisted Fish Gallery Hotels

"Easy check in and check out, host was very proactive in communication and location was great for activities in and around Traverse City area."

"Extremely clean. Easy in and out. Highly recommend this motel. Very affordable and grounds are kept with well trimmed landscaping with outdoor furniture and a large fire pit."

"Very close to downtown Elk Rapids and hosts were quick to respond with any questions. Cozy home away from home!"

"This was a great stay for me, my partner and my two dogs. It was stunningly beautiful on the lake. Even in the cold weather, we really enjoyed the views and the hot tub. The home had pretty much everything we needed and was well thought out. Highly recommend!"

"parking was easy. communications with staff were good but it would take a while to connect to someone via phone and we didn't receive an automated email with access info that we should have received. very comfortable beds and clean unit. not enough hot water."

"My husband and I just got back yesterday from our five night stay at this lovely home. Nathan could not have been nicer and left a local bottle of wine in the fridge for us. This home is 2bedrooms and 2bathrooms and right on the beach. The furnishings are updated and comfortable, and all the things you could want. Nice appliances in great working order, a hot tub and sauna, and the best view in a peaceful setting. This home is located just far enough away to be out of the way, but only 10 minutes to Traverse City. The night sky was ablaze with stars! The morning sunrise over the bay was amazing. Our only complaints were small - better connection with the cleaner (windows, trash under sink, house needs to be powerwashed) yard is overgrown and leave filled (I swept the deck twice) and the bathrooms are small. Not an issue if you are small but my hubby is 6'4" and large. Nathan accommodated our three small dogs, and we travel with everything our own towels, washclothes and blankets to cover all the furniture. Nathan left a thoughtful booklet about the house and its ammenities and places to eat and drink. We tried them all I think :-) We woke up today and thought man I miss the sound of the water and that sunrise! We will absolutely return and recomment this beautiful spot."

"Quick little cottage with nice view of the lake. Location in Elk Rapids made every thing easy! Would stay again."

"The view alone was absolutely breathtaking! We had five adults and seven kids (all age three and under), and everyone had plenty of space to sleep comfortably and spread out. The kids loved the outdoor play area and couldn’t get enough of the sand volleyball court. Having two kitchens was incredibly convenient, allowing each family their own space. We will definitely be back again!"

"Beautiful home with lots of flexibility for entertaining an extended family. Both daughters and their families. The kitchen well stocked with food prep and serving wear. The fire pit was a big hit for an outdoor hotdog and s’mores roast. Nice gas grill for doing steaks. Easy access to the downtown area by driving or river walk. A very nice 9 hole golf course was less than a mile away. The beach area was well maintained and the river at the mouth was shallow enough and low enough flow that our 7 yr old grandson had a great time playing with other kids in the water. We rented a pontoon from the marina for the day and had a great time cruising on Elk Lake. Blueberry picking was only a 35 minute drive to Traverse City and back up on Mission Peninsula.Good restaurants were only a few blocks away. Also had a nice afternoon visiting wineries on Mission Peninsula. "
