Waterfront holiday rentals in Kalkaska County

Thank you so much!! We had a great trip to Traverse City staying here. It was sparkling clean and the hosts were so kind and responsive!! We accidentally left some clothes there and they even offered to ship them to us! Great hosts all around! Lovely place to stay and close enough to walk to the restaurants and stores. Thank you!

Great place

This is such a beautiful place. Really is a slice of heaven. You have to experience it to see the real magic. Beautiful private beach, sunrises, beach bonfire, private deck spaces and the living areas are the cleanest rooms I have experienced. The hosts are so responsive to anything you need. Listen to their recommendations of places to visit or dine and you will have the best experience.

My partner and I’s stay at Jeffrey and Holly’s suite was outstanding. The space felt incredibly homely, with cozy decor and thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. It was spotless and well-equipped with snacks, coffee, beach amenities, you name it - and we loved using their kayaks for exploring Silver Lake. They were friendly and provided smooth check-in instructions. The price for the area far beats any hotel we could have booked considering how comfortable, clean, and private the unit was. As other reviews said, mechanical noises and footsteps can be heard, but this did not bother us at all. We loved this unit so much, we will probably check the availability for our next trip to TC. This was hands down the best AirBNB we’ve ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had such a relaxing stay at Linda's! We came for three nights for a family vacation and my sister and my mom both had separate AirBNBs in the same building. Linda's Condo was so nice. When they stopped in, they were so surprised at how nice and clean it was compared to theirs. Linda had all the amenities and was so communicative every step of the way. We loved the little touches she brought to help us have an amazing stay. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time at Daphne’s! The place was welcoming, cozy and very comfortable. Walt and Daphne were very responsive and provided all the little extras that make traveling an ease! The area and home are very peaceful and relaxing. We really enjoyed kayaking on the lake and our teenage boys loved the fishing! I highly recommend this place!

The setting on the lake is gorgeous and the small apartment made the most of the space available! We will be back.

We enjoyed our stay in Troy's beautiful apartment located just west of downtown. There are many shops and restaurants within walking distance, and the waterfront is only a couple of blocks away.

Beautiful home in the woods. Very clean and comfortable, felt like staying at grandma's house. Warm welcoming and very beautiful windows with gorgeous views of the woods and pond. The kitchen had everything and more that we needed to make meals. The host was very welcoming and always responsive. Would highly recommend a stay here. The place is huge! So much space.

We couldn’t have asked for a better fall weekend up north. The colors were fabulous and the lake was gorgeous. Ben and Alessia’s cottage is wonderful and has a prime location on the lake. They had all amenities that we could ask for in the cottage. All the beds were very comfortable and the living room is cozy. The fire pit outside was great to have a bonfire too. Everything was so nice and clean and there was easy access to whatever we needed. We had no complaints about anything and would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a great vacation up north!

The view of the lake on 3 different levels was amazing. Each room has a lakeview, the game room was awesome for keeping everyone entertained when we would come in to warm up. Nice subtle spot tucked back in the woods. The communication was great and they went out of their way to be sure we had everything that was needed. Comfortably fit 7 people (4 adults, 3 preteens) with no problem.

This was perfect for our little getaway from home! The water was so relaxing as well as kept the kids busy. They generously have paddle boards and kayaks which were a huge hit. The board games surprisingly kept our teens busy for hours at night so we loved having those. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

We loved the setting & the neat feel of this cabin in the woods. * Deck was a wonderful spot to relax. * Kitchen stocked nicely, although we didn’t cook this time. * Beds were comfortable. * Clean. * Paper products stocked well. * Love the flag!! There were a few things missing due to it being so brand new, which we will message the host privately about. Thanks so much!

Great home and location, right near torch lake and the marina. Very peaceful, and beautiful views, especially at sunset. Would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking to stay in the area!

everything was exactly how it was explained. nice cozy cabin. It fit our needs very well. their communication and accommodations were the best. Very helpful and courteous. would return again in the future.

Our group of six adults really enjoyed our stay at the Bear Lake Barnhouse. We rented side by sides from Rippin Razor rentals in St Helen & they delivered them and picked them up which is perfect because the trails are close by. We loved all the choices of fun things to do including the boat we decided to rent for our stay. Downtown Grayling is close by and the food at Ray's BBQ & Paddle Board was really good if your not feeling like cooking but if you do want to cook the kitchen is well equipped. There was even some oil, spices, foil & storage bags in the kitchen which was nice. We mostly ate out but we did cook hotdogs on the grill one night & enjoyed a bonfire afterwards during our 4 night stay. Nick was an excellent host very responsive & helpful. If in the area again with a group we would stay here again.

You cannot beat the location of this place if you’re wanting to experience downtown traverse city. My husband and I were able to run out for a quick coffee, walk to the water, visit a restaurant or bar and stop back to change/whatever without worrying about it. The place was clean and Jaime was very responsive with any question we had. He also had simple check out instructions. There’s a free parking spot included which was also wonderful. Def recommend!

Beach Bliss was a perfect get away with gorgeous views! The unit was very clean and inviting. Dandan was very attentive with any questions we may have had. I would highly recommend her place.

Would definitely stay again, clean unit in a great locations. The balcony was amazing in the early mornings for coffee.

We loved our stay! The listing was exceptionally clean and amenities were as described. We enjoyed the location and having a coffee shop and (delicious) burger joint in walkable distance was a great bonus! The view of the beach and water right off the private balcony was wonderful and having a heated pool/hot tub combo right on property made this an ideal booking for our family. We’d come back and would recommend to others!

This was our first time to Traverse City and we lucked up finding this condo on the beach/water! It was decorated so cute with modern/clean touches. Very easy to enter/leave with press-lock. The bed is SO comfortable. We were very appreciative of the 'Welcome' book with recommendations of things to do/places to see around Traverse. Would definitely book here again!

We stayed here for the Iceman bike race. It was a great location for our needs. Mike was proactive and gave us all instructions needed for check-in well in advance. Place was as described and had everything we needed. Would recommend!

Great spot! Walkable to all of the best places downtown Traverse and the bay have to offer.

Forest’s condo. is a perfect haven for fun, relaxation and comfort. She is extremely responsive to questions and wants the renters to have a great experience. We look forward to going back!
