A rare find in the heart of Traverse City — a modern, beautifully finished home just steps from West Bay, with a rooftop deck, hot tub, and gas fire pit high above the neighborhood. Cross the street for a swim, walk two blocks to the best restaurants and breweries in town, or settle in on the rooftop and watch the boats drift across the bay. During Cherry Festival and the Fourth of July, you have the best seat in the city for fireworks & air shows. This is downtown TC at its finest.
The Coolest House occupies the second and third floors of a one-of-a-kind Passive House — an architecturally significant building with triple-pane windows, thick concrete floors, and exceptional insulation that keeps the home whisper-quiet and perfectly comfortable year-round. The space has been finished to a high standard throughout, with a gourmet kitchen, high-end fixtures, and thoughtful details at every turn.
The home sleeps up to six across two bedrooms and a loft. The primary bedroom has a king bed, the second bedroom a queen, and the loft a queen sofa bed. Two full bathrooms, a washer and dryer, and a 75-inch flat-screen TV with Bluetooth soundbar round out the comforts. Beach chairs and towels are provided — because the bay is right across the street and you should be ready.
The rooftop deck is the crown jewel. Whether you're starting the morning with coffee and bay views or ending the evening around the fire pit with a glass of local wine, it's a space you'll never want to leave. During Cherry Festival and the Fourth of July, it becomes the best private viewing platform in the city.
The home sits in Slabtown, one of Traverse City's most beloved historic neighborhoods, three blocks from downtown and within walking distance of more than 30 restaurants, breweries, wineries, shops, and theaters. Burritt's Market and Bay Bakery are just down the block. The TART Trail runs right outside for miles of waterfront biking and running, and Sleeping Bear Dunes — one of the most spectacular stretches of Lake Michigan shoreline — is just 30 minutes away.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Great location and very well stocked. Nice floor plan for two couples. Easy to walk to downtown for restaurants and shops. Bob was very responsive and attentive. Would definitely stay again.

    We booked for the week of the National Cherry Festival and fourth of July. The property was perfectly located for both. We've done OBX, Maine, and Rehoboth beaches for our last few years summer vacations but think we actually prefer the Lake beaches -- less to worry about with our 6 year old swimming. We were actually surprised at how nice the sand bwaches were and how much our son enjoyed them even with the.colder waters. Would come back, but not during NCF or July 4th. Great for a one time thing, but the crowds were intense.

    We had a great stay at this property. The home was extremely clean and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped. The central a/c was a life saver as our week was very hot and humid. Parking is great and even the beach chairs/cooler available were good quality. The location is a few blocks from downtown and easily walkable to restaurants, beach, and shops. We didn't use the roof decks much or the hot tub due to the hot weather but they were well equipped as well and did look inviting. Bob was great on communication and responded quickly by text. If we travel back to TC we would definitely stay here again.

    This was a wonderful stay. Close to so many locations and the house was filled with amenities. The owners made sure everything was perfect and if something wasn't they worked to get it resolved ASAP. Plenty of items in the house to keep you homebound too, with a great view of the water. Highly Recommend!!!

    This house was one of the best vrbo that we have ever stayed in - clean, modern, great location, so many amenities in the house - hot tub on one of the top decks (which was modern and clean!) fireplace on the front deck (I gave only 4 stars for accuracy here because some of the water view is limited now due to a building that has gone up - that said, the water view is still AMAZING). Access was easy and the electronic key pads made it so easy for all 4 of us in my family to get in & out without needing a key. Everything FELT very CLEAN - that was amazing, and there were so many helpful notes and stickers on various things in the house that made everything just easy breezy. Great kitchen, grill, bathrooms & bedrooms. We just LOVED it. I'd highly recommend this place for your stay in TC. Great location as well!
