Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Grand Traverse County

My son got married in the area so my husband and I stayed here with my adult sister, two adult daughters and their partners. It was the perfect location between Traverse City and Northport, with easy access to great local spots like Suttons Bay Ciders, Hop Lot, downtown Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor, etc. The house was immaculate and well appointed; the layout worked well for the 7 of us. There wasn’t much downtime between wedding activities, but we did find a few minutes to complete an awesome 1000-piece puzzle and marvel at the great selection of games. Basement could be chilly but Zack provides lots of comfy throws. We used every inch of the house, including the garage, laundry and spare refrigerator. All in all an excellent accommodation!

My husband and I love the Leelanau peninsula and try to go up once in the spring before the craziness and once in the fall each year. Tiffany’s place did not disappoint. The property its self was magical, private, and everything as described. The location was 5 stars for what we enjoy - Leland, Suttons Bay, Northport, Glen Arbor and all in between! Would HIGHLY recommend staying here!

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful cabin retreat! The location was perfect—set on top of a hill with tons of land to explore. It was so quiet and private, exactly what we were looking for. Our kids had an absolute blast running around and adventuring through the woods and open spaces. The whole family loved being able to disconnect and enjoy nature together. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful setting! We also really appreciated the little things, such as the welcome bottle of wine. Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay! Michelle was very responsive. It was close to town but far enough to feel secluded. We enjoyed the hot tub, which was one of the initial factors we looked at this house. The deck attached was large enough for us all to gather. Beautiful kitchen and spacious.

Our stay was great! You can see the water from the porch. Hosts were very responsive. Would stay again.

Great stay for the family to explore the traverse city area - exactly as described, clean and uncluttered, beautiful location, short drive to a lot of places to see. We’d go again for sure.

Perfect little spot in Traverse City to be near everything and still feel some privacy. Hot tub was cozy and the heated bathroom floors were a plus!! Super flexible hosts, would stay again!

Great location close to town, walk to tasting rooms, restaurants, etc. Quiet neighborhood. Clean, charming, has everything we need. Have stayed several times and we love it.

Brenda and Jim’s place is great if you are in the area as it’s very quiet and private, beautiful surroundings and not too far from TC or the Frankfort area. We spent the weekend for the local Ironman and it was the right choice. You get all the rest you need and are close enough to both the race venue and some other small towns with nice places to eat and chill. The property was very clean, well organized and really spacious. I’d totally recommend it.

We had a lovely stay at Jennifer's place. The private entrance in the back of the house was very peaceful and the yard gorgeous. The apartment was clean and felt cozy. The kitchen had everything we needed, and it was a very quiet neighborhood. Definitely recommend the space!

It was absolutely beautiful. The trees had just changed colors and it was such a nice view! It was quiet and private. During business hours, you can hear the wine tasting room but that didn’t bother me at all. We stopped in and the staff were super friendly and helpful. So happy to have visited. Highly recommend!

Angela’s place was amazing! When we walked in, we were in awestruck by how classy the furniture selections and decorating were. Also, this was probably the cleanest Air BNB we have stayed in. Angela was very communicative, and she provided great recommendations for places to dine. We enjoyed the fire pit one evening, with the reflection of the full moon over the bay…so cool! We would love to come back to the area, and this place will certainly be our first choice for places to stay!

My partner and I’s stay at Jeffrey and Holly’s suite was outstanding. The space felt incredibly homely, with cozy decor and thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. It was spotless and well-equipped with snacks, coffee, beach amenities, you name it - and we loved using their kayaks for exploring Silver Lake. They were friendly and provided smooth check-in instructions. The price for the area far beats any hotel we could have booked considering how comfortable, clean, and private the unit was. As other reviews said, mechanical noises and footsteps can be heard, but this did not bother us at all. We loved this unit so much, we will probably check the availability for our next trip to TC. This was hands down the best AirBNB we’ve ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

This was a great stay! It’s close to downtown without being downtown. It was nice to be closer to nature with the ease of the city being a short commute. The place was exactly like the pictures and the host is very responsive.

David and Nicole were exceptional hosts. They were extremely responsive and genuinely vested in a comfortable and pleasurable stay. Their attention to detail, well equipped accommodations made my stay better than my own home. Everything in its place and easy to find. I stay in Airbnb’s all over the country and this is easily top 3 and they have a very happy repeat client as long as they will have me. Thanks for an excellent experience David and Nicole. Looking forward to my next stay! Frank

We had a wonderful, peaceful stay at Daphne & Will's gorgeous home. To say they went above and beyond would be an understatement – their space was filled with tasteful decorations, thoughtful touches, and high-quality finishes and furnishings. There was no way we could use every amenity available on a short 3-day stay, but that's all the more reason to come back and enjoy the space again sometime in the future. We particularly enjoyed the fireplace, view of the trees and lake, and comfy sofa – perfect for a relaxing trip. Will and Daphne struck the perfect balance of responsiveness, giving space, and friendliness. Airbnb perfection.

Lovely place in an amazing spot. The Art Park across the street, with beach access, is an incredible bonus. Photo ops of sunsets with big art is hard to beat. Kelsey offered great recommendations and was easy to contact throughout the stay. Will return!

What a beautiful home and perfect for a little weekend getaway! The stunning views, great location and cozy space made us feel right at home. We normally stay in the heart of TC when we visit, but we are so glad we decided to stay with Carlie. The home has all the necessary amenities and more.

Tom was great! he helped us out with a trailer issue, highly recommend staying here! will be going back again

Home was comfortable, clean and no issues getting in. Use of the garage was great since about 6" of snow fell overnight! The setup was great for our family and a quick ski weekend.

We had a great relaxing stay! It was a cozy place to relax yet still close to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. I really appreciated the coffee bar with an espresso machine and fresh beans! That was a nice surprise!

Quiet, clean, and cozy! A great weekend stay

This was a great place to go to reset and relax. The water was a serene experience and left us feeling awww’d Going to town wasn’t far to get needed supplies We look forward to visiting again!

Immensely enjoyed our time at the Cabin. It has a lovely view of Spider lake and the cabin comes with 5 kayaks, which was great. The two cabins are comfy and have all the features and amenities one needs in a cabin up north. Chris was a very responsive host, attentive to our requests and made us feel at home right away in the cabin.
