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!

Small but cute apartment. Nicely decorated. Be aware the apartment is directly attached to the horse barn. We loved seeing the horses- the brown one was particularly friendly! The proximity to the stalls led to a fly problem- it was impossible to open the door without letting a few in. Very small shower and no shampoo or body soap provided. Location was convenient for our purposes- we love spending time at Sleeping Bear and it's an easy trip from this location. All in all a good stay.

This was a remarkable place to stay. We never have been on a farm before and this was exceptional. The apartment was immaculate and decorated in modern farmhouse style, and the bathroom was clean as a whistle. Katy and Mark are wonderful hosts. I fell in love with the two horses and felt deep comfort visiting with them. Traverse City and surrounding areas and lakes are perfect to explore and the farm is centrally located to all. Thank you Mark and Katy for renovating the apartment with such care and attention to detail and making us feel so welcome. We do hope to stay again.

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!!

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.

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!

Don’t stay here

Roof had two leaks we had to use containers and the space is very small as it rained the entire weekend. The grass area was full of dog poop (owner admitted it was their dog) my husband stepped in it and we got some on our corn hole boards. At first the owner offered to credit us then later 3 days after we left we were blamed for things we did not do. I have stayed at many vacation homes and never had that happened. Also strong smell from the horses as you share a wall with them

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.

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!

Its in a barn

It was decorated very cute. But the listing should say its in a lean too in our barn next to horses. Also in our backyard and we will be in and out everyday. For the money it wasn't private and there is just a window airconditioner in the wiindow. So it got pretty hot. The mattress was ok. No box spring under it. Its cute just not worth the money we paid. &2,000 for 6 days is alot.

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!
