Our family decided to do a little Northern Pre-Christmas. This updated farmhouse was amazing in every aspect. We were pleasantly surprised with the size of every room and extra spaces. The cleanliness, decor, amenities, all top notch. It was the perfect degree of seclusion. Close enough to town and the main road, other homes to be seen yet space in between. We will definitely plan on visiting again!
Sweet farmhouse, beautifully appointed while maintaining a cozy vibe. The View of the country road and meadow was amazing. Located right off a rolling country road at the base of the peninsula, short drives to TC, Empire and Suttons Bay. Hosts provided detailed guidebook for eats, hikes and were quick to follow up on questions. Thank you .
House was in excellent condition and very clean. Really enjoyed staying here!
Property was just as advertised and has all the things you could need. Location allowed you to feel away from everything but close drive to downtown traverse city and many wineries/breweries. We loved how the place was laid out and decorated, open space but felt super cozy. Kitchen was well stocked and host left some nice touches (bottle of wine, coffee). The host was super responsive and flexible on check-in/out time which we really appreciated. Beautiful setting, nice fire outside at night and the fall colors were spectacular. It was a Pure Michigan weekend!!
The home was so cute and enough space for 12 adults. The outdoor space was large and wooded with plenty of parking. Close so downtown traverse city and fish town. Really enjoyed the fire pit at night.
The house was great and very clean. The pictures are accurate. This was a great place for us to use as home base to check out wineries and traverse city. Would stay here again!
We enjoyed the house and the outdoor fire pit! Great for roasting marshmallows! Very quiet country area so must drive to everything. Do be prepared for steps, both outside and inside. House is well-equipped and attractive!
This property is just lovely.....plenty of room and very updated and airy. The beds are comfy.....the kitchen and d.r. large and handy for preparing meals together and enjoying the open space. To sit in the living room and visit and have that big window with the beautiful view was our first thing to do in the morning and last thing at night....a beautiful gathering place. Everything was thought of from extra linens and towels to hairdryers and fully stocked kitchen. Btw, thank you for the bottle of local wine...very good! The location is excellent...quiet and private yet a short drive to town and to Sleeping Bear and other spots. Would love to visit again! Know that this place is exactly as presented in the pictures....just beautiful! Our family group ranged from a 22 year old to an 80 year old and we were all delighted with this choice.
nice
We loved our stay at The Nest! The house is very clean, well-organized, and beautifully decorated. It is conveniently located halfway between Traverse City and Glen Arbor. There are many other fun places to explore too! The hosts were wonderful too!
We really enjoyed our stay at the property. The manager was very communicative. The property had a great layout for us to all gather and play games. We really enjoyed time at the fire pit. Property was very clean and we would certainly stay again.
Everything about this house was great! Very clean, well equipped. Location was awesome and the host was very attentive.
Really cool place. Wish we had more time to stay longer. Well appointed and very functional. Super private. Relaxing getaway.
