This listing is Flat 205

Each flat is immersed in downtown Traverse City. You can walk to everything.

The corner units, Flat 201 and Flat 301 have views of West Bay down Union Street. Flat 302 has floor to ceiling windows facing Front St, the main street in downtown Traverse City. Flat 205 and 304 face west for the sunset. Flat 203 faces south and has bedrooms that are tucked into the building and show off the brick construction from 1890.

Each flat includes a fully equipped modern kitchen. We are proud to offer plush king beds adorned with soft linens locally sourced from Eelo (you can find our website by searching “Eelo Traverse City”). Eelo is owned by the Vander Roest family (one of the two families that own Front and Union) and occupies the ground floor retail space of the Front and Union building. Eelo sources, designs and manufactures its own organic, fair trade household linens. It has been reported in reviews that our linens will provide some of the best sleep you’ll ever have. The flats are fully furnished with a Scandinavian feel, functional, yet simple.

The Flats at Front + Union are located within the historic Masonic Building, built in 1890 and repurposed into a multi use building in 2023 by two local Traverse City families.

For Summer, West Bay beach, the marina and open space are all one block away. The Sleeping Bear Dunes are within a 45 minute drive.

In the Fall, enjoy a daytime color tour in Leelanau or Old Mission Peninsula followed by dinner and drinks at the famous Restaurants in downtown Traverse City.

Winter activities include skiing at local ski hills, Hickory and Mt Holiday, day trips to Boyne Mountain or Crystal Mountain, cross country or skate skiing at the VASA trail, or a simple snowshoe at Sleeping Bear Dunes.

For a real treat, visit us in the Spring. No crowds. It is a time of rejuvenation in Northern Michigan.

There is no better location for immersing yourself in all the seasonal events Northern Michigan has to offer. We invite you to visit us on our website for more information on the experience as well as discounted rates.

    The Flats was a charming and well appointed place to stay in the heart of the city. The owners were great communicators and everything met our expectations. Our first visit to Traverse City and its environs. Don't miss the drive through vineyards and beautiful orchards. Perfect spring trip,

    The flat was beautiful and it is the perfect location. Our questions were all answered in a timely manner and we received up to date information including a text to let us know the flat was ready a couple of hours early. Very courteous! Definitely would rent again.

    This place was utterly fantastic. Looks exactly like the pictures and had a remarkable view of the street below. Its also extremely lowkey, it looks like a business from the outside so it feels very private even though its in the midst of everything. The dedicated parking lot was a great touch as well since it allowed us to depart from the middle of downtown without ever having to find our cars. The location is great too, about a street over from an awesome lake view and a short scenic drive away from like an island peninsula with some sick views. This place is also near every restaurant on earth. I'll leave it at that. Extremely responsive staff, exceedingly high quality room - I cannot recommend this place enough.

    What a gem for accommodations in Downtown Traverse City. The room was perfect; the use of Organic linens was a wonderful addition. For a downtown location, the room was extremely quiet, I never heard any traffic noise at all. Just spotless the room and staff are so very helpful and attentive. Would highly recommend for your stay in Traverse City.

    My stay here was fantastic. Everything was perfect. The bedding (sourced from the place downstairs) was particularly lovely. Great glassware, silverware, etc. In addition, my contact was extremely responsive and responsible. I'm grateful for the experience and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

    My husband and I travelled to Traverse City for the first time for a short weekend getaway and really enjoy our time. The apartment that we stayed in at The Flats was great! It was a perfect location to all that downtown Traverse has to offer and so walkable. The apartment was very well decorated, cozy and comfortable and immaculate. The hosts were very communicative and responsive and the check and check out was seamless and easy. I would highly recommend staying at The Flats. We have nothing negative to say about it. We will definitely stay again when in Traverse City!

    This is a wonderful place to stay with all the conveniences of having a full kitchen and fridge and much more space than a hotel room would offer. Parking was super convenient, right by the back door and the elevator was only steps away. Location is in the heart of Traverse City, within easy walking distance to everything! If we needed anything, all we had to do was email the hosts and they would respond almost immediately, even after our visit. We will definitely stay here again!

    We stayed at The Flats for two nights in September and loved our stay. The location is the heart of downtown Traverse City. We were in a one bedroom and had plenty of room. The Flat was clean and nicely appointed furnishings. Having the washer/dryer in the unit was key. The reserved parking is also very convenient. Steve was very responsive leading up to the stay and during the stay. Walkable to restaurants and shops. Highly recommend and would stay again our next trip to Traverse City.

    We really enjoyed this space as it was in the perfect location to walk around the downtown area, and much nicer than a hotel. We were also very happy to have a parking space as it was one less thing to worry about.
