Our favorite trip to MI so far! Staying right on the water is the way to go. The views were amazing. We loved being able to get in the water whenever we wanted. The boat rental was a HUGE bonus to our trip! Memories were made. The lake has a great island for picnics and swimming. The fire pit was great for our smores. We were a short drive from ice cream and Traverse City. The house was also the perfect size for us, with bunk beds for our two littles, and a room for my parents. And bringing our pup Bernie along was a treat. Andrew was quick to respond to all our needs. This was also the first time kayaking for most and it was a hit. We can not wait to go back!

Andrew’s communication was top-notch! The house is centrally located which allowed us to enjoy Traverse City and the Sleeping Bear Dunes area. We love that they put a detailed book together about the house which included local recommendations. Our dog loved the big backyard as well as the deck. We all slept well on the comfortable beds, and the house was well-equipped for a great stay. The sauna was an added bonus on several evenings! We all agreed that we would gladly stay again at Cater Casa when visiting TC. Thank you Andrew and Ashley!

Long Lake Haven was perfect for the start of our summer. We had 3 families, 4 boys and a dog. House was comfortable with that many people. The host thought of pretty much everything, even spices and cooking supplies. Located centrally to TC and surrounding area, making it easy to get to Sleeping Bear and Mission Point. We will definitely be back.

We stayed at Long Lake Haven and couldn’t have asked for a better week! The house was perfect for our family of 6 with 4 young kids. The house was updated and super clean with all of the amenities you could think of. We will definitely be back! Also, if you can, rent the pontoon boat- you won’t regret it. We made some of the best family memories here.

Easily a 6 star rating! Our family had the best time staying at Tavi Haus. It was a perfect place to relax, play games, and enjoy the outdoors. The paddle boards were a huge hit with our boys and the sauna was an amazing bonus. Our hosts were the absolute best. They communicated well, took care of all our needs, and their recommendations for places to check out were top-notch.

This property was perfect for us in our itinerary of day trips to the north and the south, very centrally located. The house is on a busy road, but that is the main road you need to get to and fro. Additionally, there is absolutely no sound of traffic at night, the house is very well insulated and quiet and we slept like rocks. It also helped that the beds were super comfy. We traveled with our old dog, and this fenced in backyard was the best we’ve seen at any Vrbo — quite large, has a nice deck with chairs and a grill, and very private. Andy, the host, was immediately responsive to any texts. The home is well stocked in both baths and the kitchen, and we really didn’t find ourselves short on anything we needed, and that included us cooking there most evenings. Checkout was super easy. A big bonus is the Timberlands trail two minutes by car across the street. Some interesting history there, and easy to navigate trails - we saw several deer. Definitely the place to stay in the Traverse City area!
