The WORST VRBO I have ever stayed in! The upstairs bathroom faucet handle came off in my hand. There was a hole in the wall at the top of the stairs. A hole in the kitchen screen. A kitchen light with only 1 bulb so it wouldn’t work. They never shoveled the walk all weekend. Missing smoke detectors in the sleeping areas. The oven door wouldn’t shut so it couldn’t be used. Dirty tissue under the bed. Cobwebs above the kitchen cabinet. Mold under the toilet rim. There is a window in the bathroom right at toilet level so people on the street can watch you. Then they said they would refund some of my cleaning fee but after 3 1/2 weeks I haven’t seen a dime. BUYER BEWARE. They also double dipped for tax in their host fees so question it before you book it. They deny it and won’t refund.

The house was larger than expected which was awesome for 4 adults and a 2.5 yr old. We were there to visit my daughter so I'm unable to talk about proximity to the downtown area. We arrived when major snow was falling so I contacted the host and the snow was removed the next day. I would definitely stay here again. Well worth it.

Overall a great experience. Stayed with a couple friends for the Iceman Cometh mountain bike race and plenty of space for all three of us and had all we needed. Within walking distance of quite a few restaurants and breweries. Definitely would recommend.

House was clean however bathroom supplies for the weekend were low for 6 people, bath tub drain was slow and the oven door did not lock so unable to use oven. Location was great and if the above items were fixed we would stay again

The house was beautiful. It was close to downtown, restaurants, and Turtle Creek ball diamond. We like to cook our own food and the kitchen was adequately stocked. The two most important aspects are good beds and a clean house. This place scored top ratings on both!!

We came to TC to attend the Cherry Festival, myself, my spouse, my 2 grown sons and their girlfriends. The property is on a very nice tree lined street, and within walking distance to the festival and the shoreline as well as coffee shops, CVS and restaurants. It was a great stay.

Wonderful location

On a sister trip to Traverse City, we stayed at this wonderful property. The location is great and the home was in great condition and as in the pictures. All of us would not hesitate to stay at this property again in the future.

Convenient location

It was ok. It was nice for convenience sake, as the purpose of our trip was visit family at the Pavilions. There were many cleanliness issues, some were not at the fault of the owner. So many ants, dead and alive, all over the living room. The back patio was covered in animal scat. The garbage cans were overflowing and we didn’t have anywhere to dispose of our own trash. Remember to bring your own sponge as there was nothing to wash the dishes with. They also require the renters to strip all the beds and start the washer before leaving. When I inquired about issues, I’m rather certain I was speaking with a boy the whole time - I didn’t care for that. It felt like we had to do most of the cleaning ourselves. I don’t think we’ll be staying there again.

Christmas memory

We loved the house and location, walkable to downtown and beautiful neighborhoods. Due to the timing of our stay, Christmas, was a little hard to receive responses from the management company or owner, understood. The house was very clean and comfortable. Would stay there again, hopefully in the Summer!!Thank you!
