We enjoyed the outside with all the flowers, birds, & deer.The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked. It is close to a lot of towns. We loved our stay. House was warm with a fan & windows open. Would suggest air-coditioner. ##### Pamela F.

Just moments to Glen lake, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Empire Beach and the adorable Glen Arbor. This home is welcoming from the moment you arrive with attention to every detail to add to comfort and enjoyment during your stay. We took advantage of the back deck that offers both a gas and wood fire pit, covered and uncovered seating and the lovely views of wildflower gardens that surround the home! We will for sure stay again! ##### Jennifer D.

We especially loved the large house and all the backyard (and porch) amenities. Since I made the reservations I was the hero of the weekend. Nice to have Glen Arbor so close too. Thanks so much! ##### Geoff D. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison M. 1 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely Cottage! Turner Empire was exactly what we wanted and needed for our trip to visit Sleeping Bears National Park. Great location to the Park, Empire, Glen Arbor and wonderful beaches. The cottage is very updated and has lots of charming and practical decor/ furnishings. It was a very pampering experience. The yard is very private and beautiful with good parking and lounge areas. Owner's are friendly, easy to reach and accommodating. We will want to stay again, when we come back in the future! ##### Alison M.

My husband and I and our 2 friends had a great time staying at Turner Empire! Everything was spotlessly clean from kitchen appliances, cupboards, drawers and dishes to bedrooms and bathrooms. The rooms were nicely decorated with fun fall decorations! There wasn’t a speck of dust anywhere! There are lots of fun activities and places to explore nearby. We enjoyed hiking in the dunes area, a play in Traverse City and a fabulous dinner at Trattoria Stella! The owners are very nice! I highly recommend Turner Empire!! ##### Susan F.

What a great place to relax and rejuvenate. The porch was shady on a hot day, and the backyard had great seating for hanging out, eating and grilling. It was literally the best stocked rental I’ve ever stayed in and we’ve rented many, many houses over the years. The house had literally everything we could possibly want, and made it easy to cook at home. But it was also close to both Glen Arbor and Empire, Sleeping Bear dunes and 30 minutes from Traverse City, Leland and wineries. It did not have air conditioning, but the downstairs stayed cool even in almost 90 degree heat. Linda and Bob were very welcoming and responsive - highly recommend this place! ##### Gabrielle B.
