Review Submitted: November 26, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
We headed up to Northern Michigan with another couple and just had a nice long weekend in Traverse City in the Fall . The property was pristine and well cared for and while we did not get a chance to take advantage of the lake much, the location is fabulous. We would definitely stay again and have already recommended this property to friends.
