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!

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!

Beautiful stay
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.

Coffee with the horses
This was a lovely setting & location that worked well for our daughter's wedding at Gallagher Farms. We weren't sure what to expect when we drove in as it's on the back side of the barn. It exceeded our expectations as you enter and find high ceilings that just opened the space right up. We were near to everything we needed. It was a bonus to sit outside in the morning drinking my coffee with a horse in the pasture nearby. We would definitely stay here again.

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

Hidden Haven
I came for two nights to get away from downstate teacher life stresses and this space was just what I needed! The owners are wonderful and truly put love and care into making this space relaxing, quiet, and comfortable. This was my first time using VRBO and this location was beyond my expectations. The horses, sunrise, and sunsets were just stunning. Thank you for this hidden gem and I will happily be returning again soon!

Wonderful place to stay!
Loved this quiet, quaint get away just minutes from Traverse City, wineries, restaurants and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The accommodations were perfect. Truly the photos don’t do it justice. The space is larger than appears and extremely functional. The place was spotless ( and I am a bit picky). We had all necessary items to cook breakfasts every day. We were even welcomed with a bottle of wine from a local winery and tickets for free tasting. Last but not least our little dog loved frolicking in the yard. And I loved the friendly, gentle horse in the next yard! Would absolutely stay again!

Beautiful, quiet, peaceful property. Wonderful location between downtown traverse and the west coast. Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen had all we needed for storing and preparing meals.

A Hidden Gem
We had a wedding in Maple City,MI and needed a nearby place to stay. Katy’s place was perfect for us! Located on a farm,the decor, cleanliness and her attention to detail went beyond my expectations. Her place is conveniently located with close proximity to Traverse City, Glen Arbor and many local wineries. She was very responsive and I would recommend her place to anybody.

Charming farm
Katy was prompt at responding. She and Mark are great hosts! This property and the barns are beautiful! It is truly magical to have the horse “Lady” right near the apartment. This would be an ideal property for anyone looking for a getaway but especially would suit the equestrian who needs to board a horse! The beds was very comfortable. Everything was very clean and very well taken care of. We will return to this property for sure!

Its in a barn
It was decorated very cute. But the listing should say its in a lean too in our barn next to horses. Also in our backyard and we will be in and out everyday. For the money it wasn't private and there is just a window airconditioner in the wiindow. So it got pretty hot. The mattress was ok. No box spring under it. Its cute just not worth the money we paid. &2,000 for 6 days is alot.

Don’t stay here
Roof had two leaks we had to use containers and the space is very small as it rained the entire weekend. The grass area was full of dog poop (owner admitted it was their dog) my husband stepped in it and we got some on our corn hole boards. At first the owner offered to credit us then later 3 days after we left we were blamed for things we did not do. I have stayed at many vacation homes and never had that happened. Also strong smell from the horses as you share a wall with them

We loved this place!
My husband, 14 year old son, and I stayed here for 2 nights while visiting the Sleeping Bear / Traverse City area. It was a perfect place in terms of the property but also the location. We didn’t want to leave! The rental was beautiful and roomier than we expected. The space in the kitchen / dining area makes it very livable for 3 people. The setting on the farm was relaxing and a world away from Traverse City crowds / hassles. We very much enjoyed the little patio area outside. The furnishings are extremely comfortable and cozy and the kitchen was stocked with every amenity we needed. The location provided easy, convenient access to all the areas we wanted to explore (Sleeping Bear dune climb, sailing excursion in W Traverse Bay, golf, Empire Bluff and other hikes, brew pubs in Traverse City Warehouse District, and more. So fun!) We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Unbelievably Charming and Cozy!!!!
This quaint cottage was so so cute! It was very clean and current with the decor. You can tell it was just renovated. The owners took a lot of time to make sure our stay would be enjoyable. They made sure I had everything I needed before I arrived. During our stay we took a walk over to the adjacent herb farm and tea store. On our way back we pet the horses. We decided to spend more time outside after we had dinner and cozied up to a fire and had S’mores which was all there when we arrived as a welcome gift. The winter air is so clean and the sun was warm on our faces. Thank you to The Rosa’s and Rosa’s Red Barn Farm! We will be back!

Terrific Leelanau farmstay cottage - a real gem!
This is a wonderful cottage, private, clean and beautifully decorated. We had a delightful week long stay, and it was a perfect location for visiting with family and checking out the gorgeous trails and beaches on the peninsula. The cottage was peaceful and quiet, with plenty of space for lounging while reading a book and rolling out a yoga mat for daily practice. The kitchen had everything we needed for dinners, and we look full advantage of the gas grill and patio area. I am a light sleeper and with the air conditioner found getting a restful night of sleep very easy. My dog and I loved walking the little yard area and watching the sun rise and set over the beautiful pasture and trees that surround the cottage. Katy and Mark are such attentive and responsive hosts, we so appreciated their warm welcome and help throughout our stay. Perfectly situated halfway between Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes/Lake Michigan - would definitely book again!
