House was clean and spacious. Eclectic decor, but clean. Located in front of a Masonic Temple, which was active over the weekend, but quiet in the evening and night. Nice view of the Bay, and easy access to Traverse City, Suttons Bay and an easy drive to Glen Arbor and the Sleeping Bear dunes. We had a nice weekend stay. There is a small but clean beach about 1 block away! The host was accommodating and we enjoyed our weekend in TC.

Highly recommended! This house is conveniently located and close to most attractions in TC and the surrounding area. There is plenty of room to stretch and beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. View to the bay from the sunroom is excellent. We had a short stay here and were very pleased overall. Host is very responsive and communicated with us before and after arrival to make sure that all was good.

The Kaiser House is an exceptional VRBO rental!

The home offers incredibly spacious areas to relax, both indoors and outdoors. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need, and the large bedrooms feature extremely comfortable beds.The location is absolutely stunning, with great views of the bay.Our host, Jeff, was fantastic—very responsive and understanding, especially when we mistakenly got our checkout day wrong. He was a pleasure to work with.Highly recommended!

Family peace

Even though this property is located on a busy road it is very quiet and family-friendly. Modern appliances and location made this an excellent stay for exploring Front Street and the peninsulas. Just blocks from a Tom grocery store and not too far from meijer's. Checking in was quick and easy and look forward to coming back sometime. Four seasons front porch provided an excellent view of the bay and sailboat races.

Great location

We loved seeing all the beautiful sunrises over the bay, loved the closeness of restaurants and wineries and all the space to move around. Had a good selection of dishes for cooking. Just missing a cookie sheet. Would love to come back in summer to enjoy the patio area and be able to grill out.Would stay here again!

Traverse City Getaway

Our stay at the Kaiser house was great. The communication was great, the house was super clean and we loved the location. The house is super close to downtown, there is a beach nearby and the view was spectacular. It is on a main road so there was some road noise, but after the first night, we got used to that. Our one complaint would be the lack of mirrors in the bedrooms and lamps throughout the house. Seeing that there was six adults staying at the house all trying to get ready, it would be super helpful to have some mirrors in the bedrooms. The only mirrors were in the 2 bathrooms and with six people trying to get ready, it made it very difficult. The living area did not have any lamps just harsh overhead lighting so my suggestion to the owners would be to put a few lamps in the living area as well. Of course it is not a dealbreaker, but would’ve just been a little more pleasant while watching TV or reading.

Nice location

We loved our stay! The location is close to everything! It is right off of the main road in TC. The noise of passing traffic bothered some in the reviews we looked at prior to our stay. There is a lot but didn’t bother us. The pics of the house are accurate. The host was very responsive to our needs and questions!

Great girls getaway location!

We stayed here Fri-Sun for a 40th birthday. We had 6 people in our party. The house matched the VRBO description perfectly. The outside patio was so nice to sit at in both the morning and evening and look out at the water. Being right on the main road was no issues at all for us. There was plenty of space to park which was great and we walked across the road to the marina and beach. The bathrooms were clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. It's a great location if you're wanting to do both wine tasting and downtown stuff. 20 minutes from Sutton's bay and about 8 minutes to downtown TC I would say.

Stay at Kaiser House

Property was just as advertised. Layout of house accommodated our group very well. Great location for us .. Lake right across the road. Various amenities near by. Most everything we needed to prepare simple meals at the house. Suggestion: oil the backdoor..squeaks loudly when opened. Note: we did not notify anyone of this during our stay.

Family getaway

We brought family up from florida to see traverse city. This home did not disappoint and made our stay MORE enjoyable! Located just across from the pier and sailboats it has a beautiful view of the east peninsula and TC. We walked along the lake both mornings enjoying the beautiful weather and being away from the hustle of town. It’s so close to town that you can walk if you like and save yourself the headache of parking. We had a little one so we chose to drive the 4 min drive. The home was immaculate and the sleeping arrangements were good. Even though the home is situated on the busiest road in traverse it didn’t bother us one bit. We even kept the windows open for the breeze. We would highly recommend and we will definitely stay again!

Perfect Location

This property was perfect for our annual sister's trip to Traverse City. The location is conveniently located in between peninsulas and 5 minutes from downtown. Lots of nearby restaurants and grocery stores. It's a quick trip to Traverse City Commons and make sure to check out the party store next door. If you are using one of the local wine tours, they will thank you. I highly recommend Traverse City Tours, LLC. Communication with our host was fantastic and check in/out was simple. Two full bathrooms was an excellent bonus. We stayed in for dinner most nights and the kitchen was well appointed with everything you might need. The property was clean and well maintained. If you are looking for a quiet country getaway - this is not the place for you - but that should be obvious based on location and the listing details. The morning view of the bay is beautiful. We thourougly enjoyed our stay and I will book again!
