Perfect getaway!

We always try to stay at The Shores! Love the quiet area, the lovely condos, the beach, and the ease of staying there. This place worked just perfectly for my husband and I. We will be back to The Shores!

Nice Location

Great Location! It was away from downtown so it was quiet. Yet, a short drive to all the sights. . The bedroom was very nice and kitchen was well stocked.

Really Wonderful Stay (Short or Seasonal)

Thankful to have found a furnished, clean, comfortable space to spend our winter in TC. True North was accommodating and GT Resort maintenance was friendly and efficient. Will definitely be recommending this listing in the future!

Quiet place to relax

This quiet condo is a good place to unwind outside of TC. We had no issues with anything while staying there. It's easy to find and easy to come and go. The price is right and the amenities are good. Parking is excellent. The newer laminate in the kitchenette is nice. Bed is comfortable and towels are nice and fluffy. The beach is convenient and has plenty of space for people to enjoy. Overall it's a good place to land. We enjoyed the quiet space.

Grand Traverse Bay Condo Stay

good location, just outside of town. Nice facility, but not a beach front condo. We were in building 8 which is in the woods, a short distance from beach. Pool and beach area was nice. Had issues with the thermostat, call center was responsive but it took 3 of our 4 day stay to resolve. Also had issue with the dishwasher. It was filled with stinky water and when we tried to run it (as per the rental agreement) the water leaked onto the floor. This was not resolved during our stay. Overall, we would stay here again.

Good location

Great location. There's a little beach park and playground right next door. We had no problem using all of the amenities and pool at Grand Traverse, which was a nice perk.

Could be better

The location was nice with the beach. The cleanliness of the condo was not the best. The carpet had stains along with the blue chair appeared dirty and worn out. The bed was extremely uncomfortable but we made due. I would definitely stay in the area again but not with this condo/complex.

I like the condo. The only problem I had was with the kitchen table and a very small living room chair. I am a tall guy and my knees would not fit under part of the kitchen table. Living room chair is way too small. The condo was very clean and nice.

After hours fill-in support was the shining spot

The room that was booked was a total disaster, dirty bed, dirty bath room, full dishwasher, terrible smell. The communication prior to getting to the location was terrible, no response, had no idea how to check-in let alone get into the room. I had to call the office after hours and luckily I reached a person that was extremely helpful. That person got me changed into a more acceptable unit, although she did not know where it was in the complex so i had to drive around searching in the dark for it. I sent follow up emails after my stay and got no response to my complaints. I would not recommend staying at a property that is run by this management company.

Nice cute place to stay

Check in process was very simple. Host communicated and was prompt in responding. Place was cute and right outside of Traverse City making it easy to get to downtown and other surrounding places. Everything we needed was provided and available! Definitely would book again!

Great location, a little tight for 4 but we managed

The place is super cute clean and awesome location- there were 2 adults and 2 20+ year olds that had to sleep on the hide a bed - bedroom bed very comfortable, hide.a Bed not so much - that needs a new mattress - and the pool is not available to guests but the beach is great!!!!

Incredible Location, Exactly as Described

Check-in was a breeze, it’s a nice benefit to not have to deal with any physical keys. The access to a private beach is a huge plus! The outdoor pool was completely closed to everyone, so at least I didn’t have to explain to the small kids in my family why we weren’t able to use it. I think it’s important to know that the fridge isn’t full-size and there is no oven, but it does allow for there to be slightly more counter space. The kitchen was otherwise well-equipped. Thank you!

Love the Shores

Paid for early checkin and staff was cleaning the condo when we walked up. Staff stated she didn’t know that there was an early checkin. Still enjoyed the week there.

Fun trip!

We had a wonderful stay and quickly fell in love with Traverse city! A few disappoints with our stay—the pool was already closed for the season and that was not communicated. It is also misleading to call this a “beach front” condo. All the photos are of the *only* beach front condo but the condo we were put in was a good 3-5 min walk from the beach. It would have been fine but it is misleading to not be more clear in the listing. Overall though it was a nice, clean place and we would come back!

Recommended for anyone visiting TC for the first time

Location was great,private beach access and location was central to most things to do. A short distance from the main public beach ,so for anyone that prefers less crowds and more chilled community,this is the place

Quick trip “Up North”

We came to TC to watch a high school golf tournament. This property worked great for our stay. Pictures were very accurate.
