Beautiful space. Plenty of space to spread out and host TC family. Tons of natural light. Would have been nice if the fire place worked on a chilly rainy day. But we pulled out one of the jig saw puzzles and enjogsaw puzzles

Better than expected
The pictures don’t capture how great this space is. It’s clean, modern, comfortable and convenient. The West side is a little quieter and easier to avoid downtown traffic. The kitchen is fully stocked, lots of spices. Lots of towels. Lots of space. Great balcony. Couldn’t ask for better communication.

The Nest was the Best
The condo was beautiful and clean and had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. The bedrooms were big and had comfortable beds! My husband and son spent lots of time on the huge balcony playing cornhole. We loved the commons area it was such a cool place with cute stores and great food. It was in a perfect location not right in town but only about 5 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful place near downtown
We hosted a small bachelorette here and had a wonderful time! The place is beautiful and has anything you could need to make your stay comfortable. It’s only a five minute drive to downtown and 25 minutes to the wineries. We had a great time and highly recommend staying at The Nest!

Perfect blend....
Like the coffee the host provides (and wine!), this condo property is a perfect blend - of a comfortable home and nature trails, of spaciousness and intimacy, of privacy and accessibility to wonderful and quirky restaurants and shops. Tastefully decorated and fully supplied, this property truly feels like a warm, gracious "nest," as it is called. So much room and so many things to do - we'll bring friends next time.

A perfect winter get away
This condo was a perfect winter getaway for our family. This beautiful, cozy condo is located on the magnificent Grand Traverse property that has everything….shopping, a coffee shop, a wine shop, restaurants and my favorite - hiking trails. Downtown Traverse city is only a few minutes away. We really appreciate how responsive the owner was to all of our questions. If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, this is it 😊
