Guesthouse on Lake Michigan

Beautiful location. Wineries close by. Near Traverse City for restaurants and shopping. Hosts were next door and friendly. Just wish we had come earlier in the year because the water was too cold for swimming. Otherwise it was a fantastic visit.

Could not have been better!

We enjoyed our stay so much that we are hoping to book again next year. The hosts were friendly and the cottage was absolutely spotless. There are plenty of nice restaurants nearby, but it was hard to leave the lovely beach just steps away from the cottage. We have rented Up North for years and this was our favorite place. Can't wait to go again.

Guest house with private beach on beautiful Traverse Bay

The guesthouse on Old Mission Peninsula was clean and comfortable. The best part of us was the short walk to a private beach on the west arm of Grand Traverse Bay. We spent many hours on the sand and in the water which was warm and clear. The guesthouse was a short distance from many of our favorite wineries which we visited. Nancy and Norm were friendly hosts and made our stay memorable.

Old Mission Cottage

Nice, clean cottage for two. Beautiful, quiet area by a sandy beach. Try the casual local restaurant (Jolly Pumpkin). Check times businesses in the area and Traverse City for times open as some are closed on Tuesdays and/or Wednesdays. Certainly a great vacation!

Beautiful!

The property is gorgeous! The hosts are incredible too - we accidentally locked ourselves out of the guesthouse when we walked to the beach and they were able to get us back in within minutes of texting them about our situation. During our stay, we enjoyed their clean beach and downtown Traverse City (~15minute drive). Next time, we plan to stop at one of the vineyards that is conveniently between the guesthouse and downtown. We highly recommend staying here for a fun weekend trip!

Great Location in TC Wine Country

Great location for exploring the Old Mission Peninsula. The Guest house was small but well appointed for all my adult daughter and I needed for our Up North getaway . There was a noticeable musty odor and many cobwebs but we were still happy with the setting .

Ideal location on the beach

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this adorable guest house just steps from the beach. The house had everything you’d need and the hosts were available if you needed anything. We plan on booking this amazing property again.

Mission peninsula guest house

Nice location for the immediate area. Harder to get to other places in greater Traverse area. We didn't utilize beach area to any real extent but it is small. Kitchen small. Don't plan to cook much. Overall, it served our purpose but overpriced.

A Great Getaway

A relaxing beach property with an excellent location on the peninsula. We went looking for a quiet place to stay and enjoy some time away and this exceeded our expectations. Our dog Charlie also highly recommends this location for four-legged friends.

Lovely little place with a private beach

We loved our stay here. The property had everything we needed, and lots of thoughtful little extras that we didn't even expect, like wood for the fire pit on the beach and all the stuff needed to make s'mores, beach umbrellas, and beach towels. The location and the beach was beautiful. One thing to be aware of - the bed is extra firm. That's not really even a negative, just something to be aware of based on personal preference. We still slept just fine though.

An immaculate, quiet and cozy cottage

We had a lovely time! The hosts responded immediately to any questions, the kitchen has everything you might need, and the nautical art adds a personal touch. Unless you absolutely must have a king bed, this is the place to stay near Traverse City.

Quiet Beach

Lovely get away. We like the quite, off the beaten path location. Close enough for activity but feeling like a remote getaway if you’re looking for that. This is our second time at this property. We love it!
