Family-friendly vacation rentals in Traverse City

We loved our long weekend stay at the Lochen House! Our pups loved the yard, as did we. The hot tub, rowboat, and dome were the cherry on top. Such a fun stay. We also made time to visit Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Leland. The location was very convenient. However, the noise from the conveniently located main roadway, US31, was pretty loud. This of course is clearly mentioned by Jeff and in others’ reviews, but it is worth mentioning again as it slightly took away from the peaceful feel of the rest of the property. The value is there though. The house itself was clean and tidy. It had everything we could have needed and we really appreciated the grill. Overall, it was a great stay and we hope to be back in the future! 😃

This is challenging…Michigan has a vibe & an energy that is indescribable…This Airbnb exceeds all expectations! Love this place! As a disabled veteran… I yearn to move to Michigan…I honestly do not want to leave this review because I do not want tourist to find out about this lil private secret place! It is a slice of heaven on earth! Thank you! Peace 💜🥳🔥

Over the top amazing place to stay. Beautiful, comfortable and adorable! Seth and Kelsey were outstanding hosts and my husband and I were so impressed, these two should give lessons on how to be the perfect hosts!!! The food was amazing and they also slipped in a little birthday surprise for me. The property was so well maintained and the hot tub and fire pit were a welcome surprise and we enjoyed meeting other guests fixing s’mores!! I forgot to sign the guest book so will be back soon!!

My husband and I love the Leelanau peninsula and try to go up once in the spring before the craziness and once in the fall each year. Tiffany’s place did not disappoint. The property its self was magical, private, and everything as described. The location was 5 stars for what we enjoy - Leland, Suttons Bay, Northport, Glen Arbor and all in between! Would HIGHLY recommend staying here!

Wonderful place to stay, this place had everything and worked great for our bachelorette party group of 14! Everything was clean and neat, easy to find a use, and Barb was very helpful with any question we had! Traverse city was an easy 20 minute drive. The farm animals were fun to have around as well! We loved it and highly recommended this place!

Carrie's Place met all the needs of our family. They went to snowboard and were able to do lots of that despite the recent ice storm. They liked the spacious rooms, winding staircase to the loft, fireplace and being able to have their own bedroom. The 3 boys also enjoyed the waterpark at Boyne Mountain Resort. The grandparents hope to rent the same place in the summer for some northern Michigan golf and hiking.

This may be one of my new favorite Air BNB spots! It is very comfortable and close to a lot of spots in Traverse City. The beach view was also very nice to look at. Kara is a great host and provided us with clear check in and check out instructions. Will definitely be visiting again!

We loved staying here for a little weekend getaway! Dorene and John were so helpful and kind. The place was awesome so close to everything! Everything was so cozy and well put together, the hot tub with view is awesome!! We for sure will be back

We thoroughly enjoyed out stay in this gorgeously updated condo with a lake view. Patty and Al are friendly and responsive and gave us terrific recommendations for dining, sight-seeing, and making the most of our stay. The condo itself is lakeside and the many windows offer lovely views - both sunrise and sunset. Downtown restaurants and gift shops in Boyne City are just a short walk away along the waterfront, passing parks and boat launches along the way. We visited summertime but it's perfectly situated for skiers as well.

We had a wonderful weekend and totally enjoyed the Condo. It was clean, organized and we felt right at home. We most definitely would stay there again. It was perfect!! Thank you so much for allowing us to rent from you. It was nice to have a home, instead of just hotel rooms. Excellent experience.

Absolutely loved the location of this rental! It was like a 3 minute walk over to the yellow chair. So, so easy! The condo is also fully stocked with anything you might need for cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is decorated super cute, was clean and very accommodating. We would stay here again for another ski trip.

This location was perfect for our winter get away. Check in was easy, the house was clean and ready for us to enjoy time with our family. We were a group of 8 people, four adults and four children. there was space for all of us to spread out and enjoy time inside as well as outdoors. Beds were extremely comfortable! The cabin was located close to many activities such as shopping in Gaylord and snowtubing at Boyne Mountain. Andreia was helpful in providing suggestions for things to do. our group enjoyed using the club house pool as well. overall our stay was perfect. I would absolutely book this same cabin again for another family vacation.

We had three generations staying and the size of the place and ability to spread out made it very comfortable for all to have their own spaces, especially the kids. The kitchen/dining allows for prepping/cooking/eating with space to spare. The view on the course is lovely and the deck and fire pit are a great way to take it in. We took advantage of the indoor & outdoor pool as well as the private beach on Lake Bellaire. Golfed the Summit, hit at the range and played kickball golf! I recommend Torch Lake Pontoon for a day trip on that beautiful lake. So much available in the resort and surrounding area to do - a great place for a family vacation.

When going skiing, leave ski's in vehicle overnight. Since room is on 3rd floor and the room isn’t that large . But it's great for ski in and ski out to stay

The location is everything! Ski in/ski out really made this trip, especially if you have young kids who need frequent breaks. And the fire pit brought the non skiers out and helped make them feel apart of the activity. Inside was clean and accommodating. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans. Driving to the cabin was difficult. 3 cars with 4 wheel drive got stuck with the fresh snow. Do not ignore the 4 wheel drive warning in the winter months!

Mary was the perfect host. Her place was clean, spacious, and so comfortable. Great directions once in town, and awesome recommendations in her table side book with instructions. All amenities and just beautiful decorated . COZY !! Highly recommend Fish Town . Hop Lot brewery and the Cove were outstanding for dinner. Friendly people !! Ugly pies was a little farm stand with the Best homemade pies and apples. Hopefully we can come up again next year. We will definitely stay at Marys place !!! Thank you again, Laura

Zareena is always so accommodating! Her space is so convenient, clean, & perfect for a weekend getaway!

I couldn't have been happier with my stay at Stacey's. there's so much care to make sure you are as comfortable as possible. the noise machines and individual rooms A/C was like a dream. I traveled with my older mother who isn't as able bodied as she use to be and I didn't have to worry about her falling in the shower or not being able to get on and off the furniture. this place was also so close to everything! if it has been into the warmer season it would have been perfect for a beach lover!

Wonderful hosts and great spot with views of the lake out our window. Plenty of necessaries on hand for our family.

Maria’s place is an absolute gem! We stayed three nights over NYE and it was exactly what we needed! It is a gorgeous cabin with thoughtful touches … very peaceful yet close enough to anything you would need. Although, it’s very well appointed so quite easy to just stay in and get cozy by the fire. We drove to Sleeping Bear Dunes area which was not too far and found the drive to be very beautiful! The best part was the snow we woke up to New Year’s Day … just magical and our dogs loved it. 10/10 recommend!

We loved our stay here! Ken and Rhonda were the perfect hosts, they were very flexible with check in and check out times and available to us during our stay. The stay is in a renovated garage next to their house, but we felt like we had lots of privacy and the setting with the pond and lots of land is wonderful. Everything seemed new, clean, and comfy, with lots of games that our kid loved. We loved the location, it felt remote but was also very convenient to everything we like to do in the area!

Tom's place is absolutely beautiful! It is conveniently located, but lots of privacy! We love being able to walk the road with our fur baby's (especially after the snow). Such a wonderful peaceful getaway. We even discovered a new flavor of coffee that Tom provided for the keureg! Tom is very responsive and a wonderful host! We hope to be back soon!!

The location was near everything we wanted to do. We went downtown for shopping and lunch, there was a pizza/market which was very good, close and convenient, and close to the casino. My grandson just turned 21 and the trip was to celebrate him. We both had a very enjoyable time and the house was exactly how it was listed.

Very clean, comfortable space in a great location. Great restaurants and shopping right on the grounds, but the residential floors of the building are quiet and private. Paula's check in instructions were clear and helpful, and I enjoyed my solo stay here.
