Cynthia's place is great.. We have stayed here multiple times and it always works out perfect.

Our family truly enjoyed our stay! The home was very beautiful and super clean! The children enjoyed the backyard and enjoyed having their own room to play in and relax in. We cooked dinner and breakfast at the home and Rolando had everything we needed from dishes to the best appliances! The beds were very comfortable, we used every bed in the home and everyone slept very comfortably! Access to extra blankets was great, and the perfect amount of pillows. Every bathroom, (it was so great to have access to THREE bathrooms so no one ever had to wait!) was fully stocked with plenty of towels from hand towels, wash cloths and full towels. All were very clean, both showers were spotless and water pressure was amazing! We used the washer and dryer once to wash towels from the waterpark and they worked perfectly and didn’t have to wait long for the load to finish. Over all, the location was perfect in town and close to the casino and waterpark! Will definitely stay again!!

Sue’s home was the perfect setting for our family Christmas! Now that the kids are grown and living in other states, it was wonderful to find a home to be able to all be so comfortable under one roof and so close to my parents and extended family in the Midland-Auburn area. Sue had even decorated for Christmas! 🎄 ✨ We arrived late at night in the middle of a snow storm right before Christmas. Arriving at the home was truly a feeling of sanctuary and welcome. The kitchen was very generously stocked with coffee and tea and hot cocoa and so many herbs and spices for cooking. These amenities made preparing our Christmas meals and baking cookies so much easier. I highly recommend this home and was so grateful for the thoughtful communication with the hosts. Hopefully next time we can come in the summer months to visit Dow gardens which is just down the road. You are in good hands if you choose to stay here.

Outstanding! Very clean. We clean up after ourselves so not getting slammed with a high house cleaning fee and other fees made this a great value for families. One of the best places we’ve ever rented and Becca was so nice to work with.

Very quiet neighborhood, close to Hansen Hills for skiing, close enough to town to make access to restaurants and shops easy. Comfortable space, nice to have decent knives, pots and pans. Very roomy!

Rachel’s house was comfortable from the start. Everyone including the pets found the house to be fun. The children loved the ability to fish right from the pier and to get out on the water with the 3 waterboard choices. The fire pit was nicely located being right outside the back door instead of down by the water. We found the Harrison location to fun as well. We will be back to Rachel’s house and Harrison.

The Stawberry Haus was quite honestly the best AirBnB stay I have ever had. A lot of hosts rely on doing the bare minimum and will try to squeeze the most out of you, but not Kim! The place is fully stocked with absolutely anything you can imagine. Blankets, cookware, towels, bedding, storage, etc. This really felt like a home away from home. If you want a get away to just relax and feel like you can rest, this is it. Kim was unbelievably kind and responsive and a very communicative host. I highly recommend every part of this listing!

Aaron’s place was absolutely amazing! Clean, excellent location, comfortable beds, everything you could need…10/10! Thank you for having us, when we come back to Mt P we hope to stay here again.

Excellent 100% recommend

Great stay, nice and clean, no issues.

Absolutely loved this place. Midland overall is safe, but this neighborhood definitely felt safe, its nearby a school and the hospital. My favorite thing about this place was that it actually felt homey. After a long day, it was so nice to cook in our own private space and relax, plus this space was spacious! My second favorite part was having a pack n’ play and high chair on site. This made travel with my toddler a breeze! Will definitely use this place again!

Really love this BB which is clean, good view and close to my office.

Great stay, small and cozy for 2 people. Bathroom shower / getting out is kind of tight but doable. A larger person might have more of an issue but over all would recommend. Pretty central in a small town

This is my second stay at this home and just like last time it was perfect. Great location and very comfortable. Will be coming back again.

The home was very spacious, clean and comfortable. We only stay one night and wished our stay was longer. Definitely if we get the chance would stay at this Airbnb again!

Brought our family to this beautiful area of MI that we hadn’t visited before. We enjoyed the space and amenities that the unit offered. Truly a gem and a relaxing time! Thanks! Diane and Jeff

We recently stayed at Danielle’s condo and had a wonderful experience. The place was as described—clean, comfortable and well-equipped with everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen had all the essentials for cooking meals. Danielle was a fantastic host, providing clear instructions for check-in and check-out. The location was great with easy access to shopping, restaurants, lake access, and golf at the Grand Traverse Resort courses. The evening sunsets were awesome. I would recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay. I would definitely book again!

Great location, attended a conference at the resort and appreciated that you can walk right there from these condos, within a walkway in the building. Everything was as described, great communication. I would stay here again for sure!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Troy's lovely Airbnb, and I can’t recommend it enough! From the moment I arrived, I felt right at home. The space was clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated—exactly as described in the listing. The location was ideal, tucked away enough to provide a peaceful retreat. I especially enjoyed the stunning balcony view and great forest hike, which made our mornings extra special. Troy was incredibly welcoming and responsive, ensuring I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Overall, this was an unforgettable stay, and I can’t wait to return! Thank you, Troy, for your wonderful hospitality!

We were in Traverse City for a conference at the Grand Traverse resort and this was a great location close to the resort but we had much more space than we would have had at the hotel and the expense was less as well. The condo was clean, uncluttered, and the beds were very comfortable. If you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs as the road noise can be loud and the bedrooms are on the front of the condo facing the road. The back of the condo facing the golf course is very quiet and the view is lovely. We enjoyed our stay and would book this property again.

Everything was perfect and exactly as presented! Kati was excellent with communication and very flexible - we appreciate the stay so much!

Christine's home was exactly what we needed. Great location, spacious, immaculately clean, quiet and just as described. Great views over the golf course and out to Grand Traverse Bay. Christine was a pleasure to deal with. Quick, clear, responses made things so easy. The indoor tunnel going from the Condo directly to the main resort building was a great feature. Our HIGH recommendation!

Nice place. 2 beds, 2 baths. host was very prompt with responses
