Apartment vacation rentals in Elk Rapids

What a great host and wonderful apartment! Super clean, comfy, and accommodating for our pups! Great location with the Tart Trail right outside the door. Will definitely be staying here on our next visit. 🌟

Mark’s place was absolutely perfect. It was exactly like the photos and had everything we needed. I’m usually one who packs everything and the kitchen sink and I found that I didn’t need it because Mark-s condo had it all. He was very quick to respond to any questions I had which I appreciated. I also loved how the condo is located on the TART trail which made it super convenient to hop on for a quick bike ride. We definitely plan to return. Thanks again!

The location, the ambience of the place, the courtyard, the plethora of towels, the cleanliness, the easy parking - what a great place to stay, and how easy the process was. We’d highly recommend this.

The place was very clean, which is always my #1 priority. It was tastefully decorated. There was a musty smell, I’m sure caused by the concrete. We left the windows open and febreezed often and that seemed to help. The only thing I wasn’t happy with was the bed. The bed and pillows were not comfortable at all. I would stay here again, if there was a different mattress and pillows. The location was great for us! The traffic noise wasn’t a problem for us. We really enjoyed the short walk to the water! Very nice.

The classroom was very quaint. The kitchen was very well equipped, it had a washer and dryer, and the location was very convenient on torch lake. We stopped at the coop in Traverse City and stocked up, but there was also an organic farm nearby that had the best produce. And tons of cherry and fruit orchards.

My friends and I stayed at Mindy’s during our trip to Traverse City. The Airbnb was beautiful and had a lot of shops and restaurants in walking distance. It’s also very close to a path that gives views of the lake - perfect for morning runs!

This was a very nice place to stay! The area was quiet and the room was very clean and comfortable. if we are ever in the area again we will definitely be booking here !

This is our 2nd time staying at Down Memories Lane, and it was just as remarkable as last time! We love being able to have the peace and privacy you find at this property, while still being close to anything you could want to do in Traverse City! You will not find a more polite and accommodating host than Christine, I am sure of it! If we end up coming back for another softball tournament in the future, we will most certainly make it our 3rd stay at Down Memories Lane. 🙂

This place was exceptional, spotless even nicer than the pictures and literally the best stocked place I have ever stayed in. Coffee, cream sugar, note pad, laundry supplies….Other hosts should stay here and take notes! I have already recommended it others and I can't imagine s staying anywhere else when I return to the area!i Loved it! ❤️

the private staircase to enter the space was our only struggle , only due to us needing a handicap accessible space. but we managed! the stairs were very sturdy and the handrail was as well. the parking was a bit rough ground as we got out, but again, we managed. overall we were happy with our stay, and the location was perfect for where we needed to be. thank you for a great stay!

What a beautiful place. Amazing modern build, very spacious with Cafe right below. very quiet overall even with being by the main road. Host was friendly and helpful and check in was a breeze.

Perched on a peaceful hilltop surrounded by trees, the Birdhouse offers cozy, thoughtful accommodations. You will find that Joyce has thought about every detail in how the space is designed. From the delicious local coffee from Higher Grounds, to the comfortable bed and all of the kitchen supplies you could need, your shelter needs will be met - and then some with Joyce’s hospitality. We used her detailed visiting guide to pick up dinner (which did not disappoint in the least! Run, don’t walk, to Nittolo’s!) Our time in northern Michigan is always a treat. It feels like time is slower and the days are a little less stressful and our time at Joyce’s was no exception. This past weekend at the Birdhouse was one of our most memorable trips and Joyce’s hospitality played a large part in that. She was communicative leading up to our arrival date, was helpful when we had questions and was kind enough to let us meet and spend time with her adorable pups. We can't wait to return!

James was an amazing host. The property was exactly how it's described and at a great price. We hope to be staying again soon.

Very comfortable & peaceful stay!

I have long wanted to stay in this historic property and was excited to finally get the chance. This location is terrific — walkable to TC plus all the shops and restaurants at your doorstep. The room was cozy, quiet, and had all the special touches that make guests feel welcome.

Wonderful! Very clean home, safe and quiet neighborhood that is close to everything.

Loved our stay at Emily’s place. My wife and I visited while on our anniversary and felt right at home. Everything we wanted was close by, Emily was super helpful and gave great recommendations and we very much enjoyed the accommodations that were provided! Would love to stay here again!

Very cozy and great location right next to Shanty Creek Resort Hotel and very easy to get downtown Bellaire. You can either catch a ride to Schuss on the free bus transportation from the resort or take a quick drive. Overall great place for a romantic get a way!

We had a great stay and would absolutely book again. The host was super accommodating, especially with our check-in time so we could make it to a friend’s wedding without stress. The space was perfect for a group—three separate rooms gave everyone privacy while still having common areas to hang out. Clean, comfortable, and well set up for a weekend with friends. Highly recommend!

Great little place to stay while skiing at Schuss. Couldn’t be more convenient - Ivan’s, ticket office, and lifts just steps away. Room was clean and fully stocked with everything you could need for a ski weekend. Hosts were great communicators. Thanks for a great Michigan winter weekend!

Very nice rental, exactly as pictured. Location was perfect for skiing, tubing, indoor pool access, resort restaurants. Everything within minutes to Schuss Mountain, Shanty Creek or Bellaire (Short’s brewery). Very cozy space. Fireplace was great, comfortable seating/bed, coffee pods. Would definitely come back.

Noella’s place was perfect for my business trip. I was looking for something more affordable than a hotel during a busy season, and this spot was a great find. It’s only about 10 minutes from restaurants and where my meetings were held. The space was modern, clean, and exactly as pictured. I also appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the parking cone placed in front of the reserved spot to make sure it was available when I arrived. A great stay overall.

We had a great stay for a winter ski trip. 20 min to Boyne highlands. Airbnb itself is very well stocked and well maintained. Host was responsive. One thing to keep in mind is there is a steep staircase to get to the unit that I imagine may not be suitable for all.

We had a fantastic experience staying here. The hosts were incredibly responsive, friendly, and always available to answer any questions we had. Communication was quick and seamless throughout our stay. The place felt very homey from the moment we arrived—spotlessly clean, thoughtfully maintained, and equipped with a variety of amenities and activity options to suit different interests. The location is also ideal: close to downtown and the resort, making everything easily accessible. We highly recommend staying here and are already looking forward to our next visit!
