MURRAY ACRES: A large, comfortable home @ 15 minutes from downtown Traverse City

Comfortable home in the heart of the Grand Traverse Region....This is a renovated farm-house situated on an over-sized, private lot with a pond and fire-pit. It's the perfect retreat after days of sightseeing!

Beautiful Home outside of Traverse City
This was a great place to stay for a trip to Traverse City. Our group spent the days out in the city and this was perfect place to crash after days of fun.

Highly recommend
We had a great weekend and truly appreciated the spacious, clean and heart warming home. It was very well organized with everything you need. My family and I road on the Wheels on Rails on Saturday and we were less than 5 minutes from there. It is a prime location if you want to visit Traverse City but be away from the hustle of the city. Nice backyard with a great fire pit. 5 starts sir sure.

Okay.
Our overall experience was okay. They are not super quick to respond. House was clean and nice set up but the upstairs gets extremely warm. Make sure you see it is almost 20 mins from downtown Traverse. They charged us for a couch cleaning and when I asked what was wrong with it I got no reply.

Vacation with lots of driving
The host told us that the house was located few minutes from downtown traverse city. In reality, it was 20 minutes from downtown traverse city. We had to drive everywhere we went in the city, instead of walking and riding our bikes to locations.

Time Away in Traverse
We head up to Traverse every summer to meet up with friends. This was the house we chose this year. The house was beautiful, had a nice outside and everything we needed inside. There were a few issues during the stay that the owners took care of during the trip and worked with us to solve. We are talking about possibly coming back here next year.
