Completely Remodeled Mid-Century Modern Home On West Bay Shore Dr.



Great for small family or 2 couples...or a single couple wanting room to roam. 4 adults max plus small child. Decorated Mid-Century modern to match the style of the home.

Major remodel completed late spring 2016. High end features, not your usual vacation rental in this area. 1100 sq ft open floor plan with oversized 2 car attached garage. Everything brand new including all appliances, fixtures, furniture, beds, bedding etc. 2BR, 1 & 1/2 bath.

Central air. All new electrical, plumbing and mechanicals, everything to modern code for your safety and comfort.

Spectrum cable internet (100 Mbps free wifi), Hulu Live, Disney +, Max, Netflix and Amazon Prime as well as Amazon Music included. 49 inch Samsung series 8 smart TV.

2 nearly identical bedrooms (12 x 12) with large walk in closets. 1 large spa-like bath (8 x 10) with large tub/shower combo. 2 sinks on 8 ft counter. Full size washer and dry on main floor near half bath mudroom area garage entry.

Good water views from large picture windows. Very nice well developed roadside park across the street with picnic tables and access to water on West Bay if you're bringing kayaks.

Wide deep lot with mature trees. House is set back from the road with long circle drive for safe exits. Great if you're towing a boat.

Large very private shaded back yard with new large concrete patio, grill and fire pit...serene..beautiful in a very simple way with lots of myrtle and ivy. Vintage Woodard dining set. Tall steep tree covered hill beyond back yard with no houses above (we own the top of the hill for something like another 400ft). Climb it if you'd like to look around.

Another patio out front with table for two....morning coffee, sunrise over the bay.

Close enough to downtown TC and very convenient to explore all the great things Leelanau County has to offer.

One of the nicest rentals I have ever stayed at. So thoughtfully set up and immaculately clean. The location is great for the combo of proximity to the city and the lake. Host communication also excellent.

The view of the bay was lovely, and the circle driveway made entrance and exit very easy. Having traveled M-22 / West Bay Shore Drive many, many times over the years - I'm wondering if that will change as we enter "peak summer" travel. The Mid-Mod house was very comfortable and close to all of the places on our list to visit this time around.

This is our third time staying in Tammy’s home and it was just as great this time. She has thoughtfully stocked the house with everything you could need for your time in TC. She always messages a few days before check in to see if we need the rollaway bed or anything else to make our stay comfortable. Her attention details and caring nature has brought us back time and time again. Book a stay here in any season, and you’ll be glad you did.

Our entire experience was fantastic. Our host, Tammy was personable and communicative. The location was perfect - set between Suttons Bay and TC we had all the options for food, drinks, entertainment and shopping. The home was clean, bright, comfortable and gorgeous. The outdoor setting with private backyard was inviting - even in late November. We also enjoyed the lake access across the street. Not only did it make for a beautiful view from inside the home but also allowed for some fun exploration during the day. Our group of 4 truly loved this rental. Thank you for sharing it with us!

We loved our stay here! It's in a prime location, has a gorgeous backyard, and is steps away from the bay! The bedrooms were great with lots of closet storage space, charging ports at each night stand, plus extra blankets if needed. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed. We would love to stay here again!

The house and property are great and very well outfitted. The back yard is lovely, and has fire pit as well as a laundry drying rack, which comes in handy. There is beach access across the street and the location is convenient to get into town or to head out to Sleeping Bear. It is on a busy road but is set back a bit and the windows do a good job of muffling the traffic sound. It’s a wonderful place and the owners have put a lot of thought and care into renovating the house and making sure it’s comfortable for guests.

The place was exactly as pictured and loved the way it was decorated! It was just enough space for my husband, me, and his mom. The beds were very comfortable, and the linens were super nice. I loved sitting on the couch and watching the bay across the street. Also, easy access to a small park across the street. We didn't get to enjoy the backyard, but having the fire pit set up and ready for us was a nice touch. We also enjoyed having access to the garage, especially since it was raining for most of our trip. I would definitely stay here again.

The stay was perfection!!! Tammy has done an unbelievable job with renovations and making this a beautiful home!!! We have stayed at her other home and it is just as beautiful. It is very obvious she is a top notch host and wants to ensure your stay is perfect. The home was very clean and had everything we needed!! The backyard is huge and a great place to hang out. The views from the front are amazing!! The beach access is right across the road. Communication with Tammy was super easy.There is not a single thing I would change - it was perfect!! We will stay at her properties next year and for years to come!!Thank you Tammy for being amazing and sharing this gem with us!!!

We’ve stayed here once before in the winter and loved it and this time was even better. Tammy has thought of everything and made our stay so comfortable. We will be back again for sure. Also, the road side park across the street had a cute little beach where we were able to launch our SUP. Book a stay here, you won’t regret it!
