We loved our week at the Red Barn Rental! It had everything we needed amenity wise, and being on the peaceful property next to horses and chickens was amazing. The location was also great, close to town and between all of the sites we wanted to see. We hope to come back!

Perfect location for a getaway

This little farm was the perfect location for my sisters' weekend getaway! Close to Traverse City, Leelanau, and Sleeping Bear, and yet a peaceful retreat from busy days. Very comfortable and clean living space.

Modern Farmhouse Getaway

Tastefully decorated and comfortable stay in a relaxed farm setting. Close to downtown Traverse, great winery and tea farm. We just loved the space, setting and outdoor area. Nice, quiet and private. Highly recommend for a couple with a dog. We will definitely be back!

Adorable farm stay. It is located on the side of a barn add on with windows that look out to the pasture with horses. We had sufficient privacy since the barn is not too close to the main house. Everything was clean. Katy left us a bottle of wine, dog treats and 2 certificates for wine tasting at a nearby winery, which was so sweet. If I had to suggest one upgrade for them to make it would be the squeaky metal bed. I think a more solid frame would be nicer. I would still rebook even though the bed is a little noisy. Thank you for your hospitality Katy!

I had a wonderful stay. Didn't expect the apartment to be so nicely put together. Had everything I could want and more. The farm was quiet, and relaxing and I couldn't have wished for a better place to stay for the weekend.

Lovely spot

We had a wonderful stay at the Rosa’s property. The lodgings are super cute and everything was very clean and exactly as described. The property is very peaceful but close enough to traverse city and sleeping bear lakeshore to allow for easy access to a bunch of different activities. The horses were fun to watch and friendly :) Katy was very gracious and super responsive in her all her messages. I would recommend this place!

Hidden Haven

I came for two nights to get away from downstate teacher life stresses and this space was just what I needed! The owners are wonderful and truly put love and care into making this space relaxing, quiet, and comfortable. This was my first time using VRBO and this location was beyond my expectations. The horses, sunrise, and sunsets were just stunning. Thank you for this hidden gem and I will happily be returning again soon!

Quiet and Peaceful

A wonderful apartment in an incredibly peaceful setting. Beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen has everything needed to prepare a meal. The horses greeted us when we arrived and are very gentle and friendly. The owners have thought of everything and have made this a home away from home for their visitors. Can’t wait to book again.Thank you!!

A Hidden Gem

We had a wedding in Maple City,MI and needed a nearby place to stay. Katy’s place was perfect for us! Located on a farm,the decor, cleanliness and her attention to detail went beyond my expectations. Her place is conveniently located with close proximity to Traverse City, Glen Arbor and many local wineries. She was very responsive and I would recommend her place to anybody.

Coffee with the horses

This was a lovely setting & location that worked well for our daughter's wedding at Gallagher Farms. We weren't sure what to expect when we drove in as it's on the back side of the barn. It exceeded our expectations as you enter and find high ceilings that just opened the space right up. We were near to everything we needed. It was a bonus to sit outside in the morning drinking my coffee with a horse in the pasture nearby. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place to stay!

Loved this quiet, quaint get away just minutes from Traverse City, wineries, restaurants and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The accommodations were perfect. Truly the photos don’t do it justice. The space is larger than appears and extremely functional. The place was spotless ( and I am a bit picky). We had all necessary items to cook breakfasts every day. We were even welcomed with a bottle of wine from a local winery and tickets for free tasting. Last but not least our little dog loved frolicking in the yard. And I loved the friendly, gentle horse in the next yard! Would absolutely stay again!

Terrific Leelanau farmstay cottage - a real gem!

This is a wonderful cottage, private, clean and beautifully decorated. We had a delightful week long stay, and it was a perfect location for visiting with family and checking out the gorgeous trails and beaches on the peninsula. The cottage was peaceful and quiet, with plenty of space for lounging while reading a book and rolling out a yoga mat for daily practice. The kitchen had everything we needed for dinners, and we look full advantage of the gas grill and patio area. I am a light sleeper and with the air conditioner found getting a restful night of sleep very easy. My dog and I loved walking the little yard area and watching the sun rise and set over the beautiful pasture and trees that surround the cottage. Katy and Mark are such attentive and responsive hosts, we so appreciated their warm welcome and help throughout our stay. Perfectly situated halfway between Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes/Lake Michigan - would definitely book again!

Peaceful Lodging

Lodging was as presented. Super cute and comfy. Lacked nothing. Quiet area (and could even visit with the farm animals if you so desire). Bed and couches very comfortable. A/C in main living area worked well. Instant hot water in sinks and shower. Shower had good water pressure. Full size fridge and dining table. Ceiling fans throughout. These are not negatives, but something for light sleepers to keep in mind. The entire room is walled with windows. The window coverings are white screens and do not fully block out light. Also, there are decorative light bulbs along the outer roofline. They knock against the walls if the wind blows. The location was awesome. We visited Empire, Glen Harbor, Traverse City, and of course Sleeping Bear Dunes Nat’l. Lakeshore. Lots to see and do near this lodging.
