I love the light filled living room of this rental and the proximity to the trail. The management is superb to work with. This is not my first stay and won't be the last, when I come to TC.

We just enjoyed 4 nights at the Boardman Penthouse and truly enjoyed our stay. Its located in a quiet and peaceful lakeside location just outside Traverse but with plenty of places to go and see nearby. The condo was well appointed and comfortable with great lighting and an open floor plan. We really enjoyed Traverse and can't wait to go back. We had other family members stay downtown and I think the Boardlab penthouse was superior in every way. We will be back again soon.

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The property and the view were both beautiful. We spent two of our three nights there cuddled up on the couch watching a movie with the fire going as snowflakes fell outside. That couch is so comfortable that we're considering replacing our couch at home with one like it. The property was well maintained, well stocked, and very secure. The location is great too. There were a TON of food options within a mile or two and I really can't think of any way it could be better.

This condo was exactly as portrayed. Very comfortable and fitted out with everything we needed to make our stay very enjoyable. The only disappointment were the TV channels…..way too limited with no local news, weather or sports. We would have liked to know before booking that it was streaming, no cable.

Everything was as nice as picture! Very nice apartment with all amenities and appliances! Everything was super clean. Only one thing bothered me was that there was no cable/ antena. We had no way to watch the christmas nfl game. Veiw was very muchbworth it!

Got this place during what I’d assume is the down season for Traverse tourism and it was wonderful. Easy bike ride away from pretty much anything you could want to do downtown. Great view over Boardman Lake. We even got to watch a crazy thunderstorm over the lake one day and a beautiful sunrise 2 days later. The place itself was immaculate and had so many amenities (the flat top on the stove is perfect). Another perk we didn’t know about until we got there is that there is a brewery 200ft away and Traverse City Whiskey Co. is a couple blocks away as well. Awesome place, and so glad we stayed.

This is the second time we've stayed at this property because it's absolutely perfect. There's a beautiful view over the lake, it's the perfect distance from the city where there's zero noise but it's a quick drive to anything you'd want. The place itself is wonderful. The couch is so cozy and perfect for napping and watching movies in front of the fireplace. The balcony is great for having breakfast while looking out over the lake. The bed felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. The kitchen is modern and any time I thought "Oh I wish we had ___" my wife would end up finding one in a cupboard somewhere. I could not be happier with my stay here, and if I'm in the area again I will probably be trying to get this space.

spacious beautiful confo-glitches with check- in and the television ( missed the big game of the football season due to streaming only) - but loved being on the lake- watching sunrise and sunsets and the crew teams practicing in mornings. Owners are most kind- a drawer of leftover containers. eco-friendly laundry soap and washing machine soap. Hope to book again soon and thx to staff who responded quickly to our issues. Central location to exploring the entire area and both peninsulas. No issues with construction noise although they were there our last two days. Wonderful stay!
