Both daughters and their families. The kitchen well stocked with food prep and serving wear. The fire pit was a big hit for an outdoor hotdog and s’mores roast. Nice gas grill for doing steaks. Easy access to the downtown area by driving or river walk. A very nice 9 hole golf course was less than a mile away. The beach area was well maintained and the river at the mouth was shallow enough and low enough flow that our 7 yr old grandson had a great time playing with other kids in the water. We rented a pontoon from the marina for the day and had a great time cruising on Elk Lake. Blueberry picking was only a 35 minute drive to Traverse City and back up on Mission Peninsula.Good restaurants were only a few blocks away. Also had a nice afternoon visiting wineries on Mission Peninsula. ##### Mark K.

The spacious layout and multiple decks really helped us, as we had to keep one COVID positive family member separated from others in the group.

The hosts responded instantly when needed and made check in and out super simple.We also loved that our dog was able to vacation with us. Finally, this is a great location for visiting Traverse City, boating on torch lake or just relaxing around the house. Plenty to do and see near this amazing property. ##### Julie F.

It was clean and well stocked. Kristi is very quick to respond. I spent the week with my grown children and young grandchildren. The house had everything you would need to cook and enjoy your time. The only complaint I have is that it had a lot of glass decorations that I had to put out of reach for the young children. If you have children under 4 years old, you will probably need to child proof when you arrive. Lovely big yard.and room to play. I would rent again if I need four bedrooms. ##### Kathy P.

Happy Guests!! Working with Kristi was so easy from booking to arrival, to answering all our questions and checkout. Upon arrival her home was well lit on the outside as well as the inside, which was very nice since we arrived at night. The home was very clean and well taken care of with a very welcome feel. The home was so well stocked with cleaning supplies, spices to do your cooking, kitchen and bathroom supplies, as well as plenty of extra towels and linens. Kristi really thought of everything, it was so nice not having to run to the store right away! We enjoyed the convenient location, just a walk to the local grocery store, cute little town with restaurants, boat marina, Elk Rapids Sandbar (beach) and farm stands with freah produce and delicious homemade pies. Our favorite moments were spent at the Elk Rapids beach and watching the most gorgeous sunsets! Elk Rapids beach is a very well kept and dog friendly just in case you decide to bring your pup along. Also, wanted to mention about the very comfy beds! We have a very special place in our hearts for Elk Rapids and our stay at Kristi's home, which is a sure bet we will be returning sometime soon.

Very clean and has everything you need. We had a wonderful time and the area was beautiful. The beach nearby was perfect for a family. The only drawback was having to drive. It was a very short drive though. House was very roomy and accommodated us perfectly! Overall great experience!!!! ##### Shannon C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bryan B., Sycamore, Ohio 24 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect! We thoroughly enjoyed this rental. It’s in a nice neighborhood, close to downtown Elk Rapids. Grocery store literally a few steps down the street. Elk Rapids has a beautiful public beach with tennis, pickle ball, basketball courts, play area for children, and bathroom facilities. This house is a couple minutes from it. And you are close enough to enjoy Traverse City and the winery area. This rental has huge yard. Great deck and patio area. Would 100% recommend this house. Owner, Kristi, is very easy to work with. ##### Bryan B.

This rental had a wonderful kitchen, totally stocked, with all new appliances and a large farm sink. The lower level had brand new carpeting and a washer/dryer that were also new and top of the line. The bed linens were very soft and comfortable and the towels were thick and big! Beds were all comfortable and the bedroom with a queen, a twin, and a trundle bed were perfect for our son and his family. There were lots of kid toys and games which our family really enjoyed as our weather was somewhat chilly and rainy. ##### Randy/Linda K.

TVs in every bedroom and living area. Well-suited for multi-generation families as my the older family members can stay on the main level while the younger ones stay in the lower level. We enjoyed the decks and the walkout basement (along with the firepit). Ample outdoor seating. Lovely landscaping. Responsive host. Tons of parking (you can easily fit 7 cars). Close to the village (not to mention the Village Market) and beaches. Look up Torch Lake Pontoon Rentals for a boat rental (the owner Doug was great). We had a great time. ##### Michael P.

Location was very good with \~1 mile to the desired park/beach on Elk Lake and downtown. Plenty of offering nearby and a few hundred feet from a perfectly appointed market that met our family’s needs for the week. Would stay here again and will definitely be back in the area in the future. ##### Shaun C. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2022 ---
