Great place for a weekend getaway with comfortable surroundings. We came to town to visit family and came here a couple days prior to relax. Easy drive to many wine tastings, and we ended up eating dinner at the nearby Boathouse!Hosts are great as well! Very available if you have questions or need anything!

Lovely get away. We like the quite, off the beaten path location. Close enough for activity but feeling like a remote getaway if you’re looking for that. This is our second time at this property. We love it!

Guest House on Old Mission Peninsula

Wonderful property right on water with a beautiful sand beach. Perfect for 2 people. Great location to explore Traverse City and surrounding area. Hosts were great, very friendly and accommodating. If you like wineries this is a perfect location. Hope to return.

Could not have been better!

We enjoyed our stay so much that we are hoping to book again next year. The hosts were friendly and the cottage was absolutely spotless. There are plenty of nice restaurants nearby, but it was hard to leave the lovely beach just steps away from the cottage. We have rented Up North for years and this was our favorite place. Can't wait to go again.

Guesthouse on Lake Michigan

Beautiful location. Wineries close by. Near Traverse City for restaurants and shopping. Hosts were next door and friendly. Just wish we had come earlier in the year because the water was too cold for swimming. Otherwise it was a fantastic visit.

Guest house with private beach on beautiful Traverse Bay

The guesthouse on Old Mission Peninsula was clean and comfortable. The best part of us was the short walk to a private beach on the west arm of Grand Traverse Bay. We spent many hours on the sand and in the water which was warm and clear. The guesthouse was a short distance from many of our favorite wineries which we visited. Nancy and Norm were friendly hosts and made our stay memorable.

Perfect Spot!

The location was perfect. There is a beautiful beach and it feels like you are way out in a private spot but yet it is a close drive to all the fun and amazing things that the Traverse City area has to offer like light houses, wineries, shopping and other quaint towns to explore. And best of all they welcomed our dog too.

Old Mission Cottage

Nice, clean cottage for two. Beautiful, quiet area by a sandy beach. Try the casual local restaurant (Jolly Pumpkin). Check times businesses in the area and Traverse City for times open as some are closed on Tuesdays and/or Wednesdays. Certainly a great vacation!

Beautiful!

The property is gorgeous! The hosts are incredible too - we accidentally locked ourselves out of the guesthouse when we walked to the beach and they were able to get us back in within minutes of texting them about our situation. During our stay, we enjoyed their clean beach and downtown Traverse City (~15minute drive). Next time, we plan to stop at one of the vineyards that is conveniently between the guesthouse and downtown. We highly recommend staying here for a fun weekend trip!

Great Location in TC Wine Country

Great location for exploring the Old Mission Peninsula. The Guest house was small but well appointed for all my adult daughter and I needed for our Up North getaway . There was a noticeable musty odor and many cobwebs but we were still happy with the setting .

Lovely cottage on the water

The cottage was perfect for my husband and me. A short path out the back leads to a beautiful private section of the beach on Lake Michigan. Beautiful vineyards and views everywhere, and a bonus woodland hike a few minutes walk away! Nancy and her husband were delightful and happily provided recommendations for dining and wines tastings! Highly recommend!

You could hear yourself think!

It was very quiet, which we enjoyed. We wish it was a little bit closer to the water, but it is not ideal for someone with agility/balance issues. We loved the bed and the couch. The toaster didn't work well. All in all, it was a lovely escape.

Lovely little place with a private beach

We loved our stay here. The property had everything we needed, and lots of thoughtful little extras that we didn't even expect, like wood for the fire pit on the beach and all the stuff needed to make s'mores, beach umbrellas, and beach towels. The location and the beach was beautiful. One thing to be aware of - the bed is extra firm. That's not really even a negative, just something to be aware of based on personal preference. We still slept just fine though.

This property was all they said and more. The beach was absolutely beautiful a short path away and soft and sandy. The spot was quiet and clean. The owners were attentive and when we lost power, they were quick to check in. The garage was a perfect touch. Close to everything we wanted to do on Old Mission and about a 25 minute drive down the peninsula. A perfect getaway for our Anniversary.
