Mid-Mod Lodge - Spacious Single Level Home Minutes Walk to Beach, TART Trail

Completely renovated mid-century modern home close to downtown Traverse City. Walk 10 mins to a public beach on East Bay. Hop on bikes and head 3 miles on the TART trail to downtown breweries, galleries and restaurants. Enjoy a scenic drive to Leelanau or Old Mission Peninsulas where you can visit cherry orchards, enjoy wineries and explore local distilleries and farm markets. A full kitchen, lots of parking, fast wifi and Northern MI at your disposal - the perfect spot for your next staycation

We are here to make your stay feel like home - feel free to contact us with any questions, and we hope you enjoy your time in beautiful Northern Michigan!

While the house feels private and secluded, surrounded by large trees and landscaping, we ask that you be respectful of our neighbors as the house is located in a residential neighborhood.

Guests have access to the whole home during their stay.

The driveway can accommodate about 4 cars, and 2 additional cars can park in the spots out front of the house between April 1 - Nov 30, just off the road. Street parking is off limits so please make sure all cars are on the property.

The house comfortably sleeps 8 in private bedrooms with additional sleeping options for 4 - there is a king bed, queen bed, twin bed and bunk room with a full bed on bottom and twin on top. There are also 2 fold-down futons, a queen-sized air mattress, and space on a down-filled, comfortable couch in the rec room. There is one full bath, which has been completely renovated, and a half bath (closer to a quarter bath, as it is quite small). The master bedroom has lots of windows looking out on the wooded property and access to the deck. The kitchen is equipped for cooking and serving, with a retro stove, oven and warming oven, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer, microwave and classic boomerang Formica counter tops. Our half bath is probably better described as a quarter bath. It’s pretty small, but functional.

For those looking to stay in, we are setup for comfortable entertainment, with two 55-inch TVs and "rec room" area with a vintage gas stove and plenty of board games. There is also a large back yard, with a deck, gas grill, and a fire pit perfectly positioned in the shade of old-growth pine and oak trees.

As noted in the amenity section, the house does not have central air-conditioning. Temperatures are often cooler close to Grand Traverse Bay, the lot is wooded and has plenty of shade, and we provide fans in every room.

Please do note that this home is located in a quieter residential neighborhood and sound carries easily in the backyard.
