Stunning lake cottage in the heart of wine country

My husband and I just got back yesterday from our five night stay at this lovely home. Nathan could not have been nicer and left a local bottle of wine in the fridge for us. This home is 2bedrooms and 2bathrooms and right on the beach. The furnishings are updated and comfortable, and all the things you could want. Nice appliances in great working order, a hot tub and sauna, and the best view in a peaceful setting. This home is located just far enough away to be out of the way, but only 10 minutes to Traverse City. The night sky was ablaze with stars! The morning sunrise over the bay was amazing. Our only complaints were small - better connection with the cleaner (windows, trash under sink, house needs to be powerwashed) yard is overgrown and leave filled (I swept the deck twice) and the bathrooms are small. Not an issue if you are small but my hubby is 6'4" and large. Nathan accommodated our three small dogs, and we travel with everything our own towels, washclothes and blankets to cover all the furniture. Nathan left a thoughtful booklet about the house and its ammenities and places to eat and drink. We tried them all I think :-) We woke up today and thought man I miss the sound of the water and that sunrise! We will absolutely return and recomment this beautiful spot.

Just fantastic place to be for 7 days very relaxing

Beautiful home situated perfectly and uniquely on the bay- stunning views and private wooded setting. We loved watching the swans swim by every day! House was well-stocked and immaculate; perfect blend of that cottage feel combined with luxury. Excellent communication with host. So many hiking trails, nature and beaches to experience in OMP, also a very nice grocery store & restaurant just up the road. Was a wonderful, quiet winter getaway for us! Will definitely stay again; thanks Nathan!

Nathan is an amazing host and his Bluff Rd house is a perfect getaway. It’s in the heart of Old Mission Peninsula and has everything we needed. This is a five star rental, can’t wait to come back.

Great property that is very private. Cute cottage that is comfortable and has everything one would need for a great vacation. Beautful neighborhood and excellent overall location on the peninsula. Easy access to incredible hiking and the amenities of Traverse City. Would definitely stay here again.
