Outside, you'll find the perfect space to unwind, featuring a grand fire pit with comfortable seating and a new cedar sauna for you to enjoy. For your convenience, a Level 2 charging station with a J1772 plug is also installed for guests with electric vehicles.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
Nestled just 15 min from the heart of Traverse City and situated right on the outskirts of Acme, the Holiday Hills neighborhood is directly across from the eastern shoreline of Grand Traverse Bay. This is the perfect location for those looking for the ease and convenience of being close to downtown while also looking to enjoy outdoor recreation.
NOTES:
If you’re planning a winter stay, bear in mind that Northern Michigan is Old Man Winter’s homeland. Roads can get slippery and may go unplowed, and events could be rescheduled or canceled. We strongly recommend arriving with a well-prepared vehicle equipped with all-wheel drive or snow tires.
Please note that we have a Nest home doorbell/camera for added security during your stay.
If you have babies coming to stay let us know ahead of time and we will have pack n’ plays, baby gates, sound machine, and high chairs ready!
If you’re booking winter dates, remember that Northern Michigan is the childhood home of Old Man Winter. Roads can be slick and go unplowed. Events might get canceled or rescheduled. We require that you bring a well-prepared vehicle with all-wheel/4-wheel drive or snow tires to this rental in the winter months.
Please be respectful of the neighbors, and this is a no-party property!
