Adorable apartment close to Traverse City in a beautiful farm setting

Cozy studio apartment on a lovely farm setting and convenient location.
Completely renovated in summer 2022, this studio features a combined sleeping and living area in a room full of windows. Has a queen size bed and queen pull out couch available. The room faces South and West allowing plenty of sunlight through all of the windows. All nine windows include cordless blinds for privacy. The kitchenette includes stove, microwave, and large refrigerator, and a dining area. Bathroom has a sink and vanity, standup shower, and toilet.
Conveniently located 7 miles from Grand Traverse Bay, 14 miles to the beautiful Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore, minutes to the large all sports Long Lake, and approximately 10 minutes to the quaint village of Cedar where you can enjoy homemade meats year-round and the annual polka festival in the summertime.
For the equestrian, we have 2 10x12 indoor stalls available that open up to 10 acres of fenced in pasture.
This 18 acre farm boasts a century old majestic barn built on property that was given to the original owner by president Abraham Lincoln on a land grant after the Civil War. Lots of history here! The property is adjacent to Light of Day organic tea farm where you can walk the grounds and purchase many varieties of delicious teas.
Be our guest in beautiful northern Michigan!

We loved our week at the Red Barn Rental! It had everything we needed amenity wise, and being on the peaceful property next to horses and chickens was amazing. The location was also great, close to town and between all of the sites we wanted to see. We hope to come back!

Small but cute apartment. Nicely decorated. Be aware the apartment is directly attached to the horse barn. We loved seeing the horses- the brown one was particularly friendly! The proximity to the stalls led to a fly problem- it was impossible to open the door without letting a few in. Very small shower and no shampoo or body soap provided. Location was convenient for our purposes- we love spending time at Sleeping Bear and it's an easy trip from this location. All in all a good stay.

This was a remarkable place to stay. We never have been on a farm before and this was exceptional. The apartment was immaculate and decorated in modern farmhouse style, and the bathroom was clean as a whistle. Katy and Mark are wonderful hosts. I fell in love with the two horses and felt deep comfort visiting with them. Traverse City and surrounding areas and lakes are perfect to explore and the farm is centrally located to all. Thank you Mark and Katy for renovating the apartment with such care and attention to detail and making us feel so welcome. We do hope to stay again.

This was the perfect spot for our mini vacation with our family! Comfortable and beautifully decorated, we felt right at home! The setting is beautiful and quiet on the farm. Just a few minutes from our favorite winery up north. We loved everything about our stay! Can’t wait to book another stay!

Great spot for our trip

We had a great stay in the little farmhouse cottage. It was easy access to both Traverse City for the Cherry Festival and Empire and Sleeping Bear dunes. The bed was comfortable for us, our 7 year old slept in the couch and our 18-month old slept in a pack-n-play. Would happily stay here again the next time we're in town!

Modern Farmhouse Getaway

Tastefully decorated and comfortable stay in a relaxed farm setting. Close to downtown Traverse, great winery and tea farm. We just loved the space, setting and outdoor area. Nice, quiet and private. Highly recommend for a couple with a dog. We will definitely be back!

I had a wonderful stay. Didn't expect the apartment to be so nicely put together. Had everything I could want and more. The farm was quiet, and relaxing and I couldn't have wished for a better place to stay for the weekend.

Lovely spot

We had a wonderful stay at the Rosa’s property. The lodgings are super cute and everything was very clean and exactly as described. The property is very peaceful but close enough to traverse city and sleeping bear lakeshore to allow for easy access to a bunch of different activities. The horses were fun to watch and friendly :) Katy was very gracious and super responsive in her all her messages. I would recommend this place!

Delightful accommodations to start the summer

What a great place and location to stay. The unit was beautifully decorated and had all the amenities of home. The location was perfect as we were in town for the Bayshore 1/2 Marathon in Traverse City and explored Suttons Bay as well. Katy was a great host and the property was very peaceful and quiet. We are already planning a return trip Kevin and Paula

A wonderful apartment in an incredibly peaceful setting. Beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen has everything needed to prepare a meal. The horses greeted us when we arrived and are very gentle and friendly. The owners have thought of everything and have made this a home away from home for their visitors. Can’t wait to book again.Thank you!!
