I grew up in Ann Arbor, MI and had fond memories of vacationing in Traverse City as a child. As I grew older and life took me away from Michigan, those memories remained vivid and were gnawing at me to come back and visit. So when my wife and I planned leave from Japan to visit the states, Traverse City seemed like an excellent option. Our experience started out great from the start. Marita was willing to work with us on the dates of our stay (Friday - Friday) vs. the standard Sat-Sat vacation rental. This was absolutely wonderful concerning our stringent military leave dates from Japan. After living in big city after big city, we were amazed to find how centrally located Suite 202 of the Grand Traverse Commons. 45 minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes, 2 hours to Mackinaw Island, and literally minutes from anything you desire to do in Traverse City.

The unit itself was absolutely wonderful. A small kitchen, supplied by the local meijer grocery store, kept us in for most meals and saved us tons of cash avoiding eating out. My wife was able to enjoy her morning coffee and I enjoyed the first glimmers of sunlight and my morning paper on the kindle. Wifi, cable internet, and a flat screen TV, kept us feeling like we were at home.

As you have read, it is a loft, with an incredibly efficient use of the square footage. Ultra high ceilings, allow for the bed to be lofted 10-12 feet in the air, in a makeshift room above the kitchen. A ladder brings you to your wonderfully comfortable bed. It really was a neat experience and just seemed to add to the uniqueness of the unit. Turns out my Grandmother worked at the clinic that is now the Grand Traverse Commons... maybe she walked those halls decades ago.

A comfy couch, breakfast table, wonderful bathroom and shower, and the location - central to great walks in the arboretum, trips to the bakery across the street, coffee shops, wine tasting, restaurants, and locality to gyms, shopping, and everything else made this a memorable trip. Thank you Marita. I highly recommend the unit.

Certainly a SWEET suite!

We were searching for an affordable, unique experience for our first wedding anniversary in Traverse City. We found Suite 202 and began communicating with the owner about our stay. We found them to be extremely responsive, informative, and flexible. The booking experience was extremely simple, and in no time, we had our stay confirmed and began counting down to our vacation.

As the date grew closer, we received communication from the owners on our arrival and the procedures for checking into the suite, which as very easy. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised by this charming studio with a wonderful view. The pictures don't do this place justice. Literally, no detail was spared in the design of this suite. Luxury finishes throughout, a great bathroom, plush bathrobes, a stocked kitchen, and a great location make this place the perfect stay for a busy couple looking to enjoy this fun town. The only problem we had was that we wanted to stay in the suite more than we had planned - it's that nice! The property is spotless, and I can't say enough about the cute kitchen and luxurious bathroom.

There is not a hotel in Traverse City that comes close to the finishes, comfort, and experience at this suite. The only thing to note - the bed is certainly up a library ladder, so be prepared for a bit of tight fit and an adventurous climb. We loved it! Just be aware if you spend the evening enjoying the local wines in Traverse that you have to make it to bed up that ladder! :) But the couch is phenomenal as well!

The owners of this property are simply lovely. We arrived to a wonderful bottle of local champagne and a sweet note congratulating us on our anniversary. After our stay, we traveled west to our own cottage for a week, and our deposit check for the suite was waiting on us when we arrived home, as promised, with a lovely note again from the owners.

We travel to northern Michigan every summer. If we have it our way, we will start each of those trips with a weekend stay in Traverse City in Suite 202. Thank you for making our stay phenomenal - it is a trip we will never forget!

PERFECT Place to Stay!

This condo is absolutely gorgeous and the owners should pride themselves on the wonderful attention to detail! Not only was it relaxing, but very private and a short walk or drive to all the great things in Traverse City. The level of cleanliness exceeded my high standards and the place is clearly well taken care of. All the appliances and furniture were top-notch. Having the lofted bed was actually quite fun! There was a nice closet with my compartments for organizing our belongings, and we actually began to feel like the condo was ours. Don't look anywhere else! Can't say enough good things about it.

We enjoyed a wonderful 3 days in Grand Traverse Commons in your lovely and well appointed condo. The history of the buildings and grounds was most fascinating and we enjoyed reading the information provided. We felt very comfortable and at home and enjoyed the views of the grounds from the living room windows. There was nothing lacking in amenities and comfort even to the plush robes in the closet! Loved the shops below and enjoyed strolling the grounds. Quick drive to town and waterfront. Would definitely recommend the Commons for an unusual and delightful getaway. Lots of great golf in the area which was our focus. So glad we found you! Would highly recommend to friends and family.

After my recent stay at this condo, I can’t say enough good things about it! The building and grounds it is located on are beautiful. The beautiful Traverse City bay is just a short drive down the road. The condo itself felt like it was our home. They have gone above in beyond in making sure everything is high quality, and would suit most anyone’s standards. We made most of our meals in because we enjoyed being in it so much. There are also balconies all over the building that are wonderful to enjoy. I would highly recommend this condo to any person/couple traveling to Traverse City! My only complaint is that I wish we could have stayed longer.
