Suite 302 is a third floor condo whose paint colors and wood accents create a breezy waterfront atmosphere. Comfortable furnishings in the living area, including a sofa sleeper, encourage naps or a movie night gathered around the flat screen TV.

Very good stay

Review by Brittany Y.
The property was better than I expected from pictures. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Hello Brittany, thank you for the feedback and great review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay here at North Shore Inn. Please feel free to visit out website or call us directly for your next reservation. Thank you, Scott.

Great Quaint Place...disappointed in 302...

I was fully aware of recent construction at property. Changes were great, however the interior cleanliness of #302 was lacking. Glass on doors leading to both balconies were filthy, the windows were filthy, the insulation stuffed in lock of upstairs balcony door was a shame. Shower unit on 1st floor bathroom needs to be replaced ... I realize not all improvements can be done at once, but this unit needs some love. I've stay in this unit prior to this visit and was disappointed this time. Staircase outside of units could use some cleaning. Marijuana is legal in Michigan and we smelled it while sitting on balcony ... had to close windows as a result.

Great View and Spacious

Review by Grant W.
Great location right on the bay with amazing views. Nice large place to spread out for just a bit more than a hotel.

Kalamazoo Party of 4

Review by Carolyn C.
Over all we had a pleasant experience. The Condo is attractively decorated. The updates to the kitchen was a pleasant surprise because the internet pictures did not reflect these upgrades. We would suggest that the carpet on the main level as well as the sofa be cleaned. The need for this is quite noticeable. We would also suggest that the furniture in the 1st floor bedroom be slightly rearranged. You can bearly open the drawers to the dresser since the bed is so close to it.There was some type of unsightly chemical stain to bottom right side of the first floor shower. The Young lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful.

Nice quiet location

Overall very good stay. The condo was pretty clean aside from some spiders on the ceiling and going upstairs. Beds were very comfortable and there wasn’t much noise from the neighbors. Enjoyed the view of the water from the balconies. Good location close to downtown and wineries.

Another Great Stay

Review by Loretta D.
We enjoyed our stay at North Shore Inn this past August. We have been coming here now for several years. Our unit 302 was tastefully decorated with updated appliances and counters. The Manager Scott is always very accommodating and helpful. The grounds are well kept and rooms are always clean and kitchenettes usually have all that you need.

Hello Debra, thank you for the feedback. As you now we are under construction so the building and parking lot does appear dirty, being its March and the melting snow everywhere definitely does not help the overall look. However the construction is scheduled to be complete April 30, 2020 and we hope to see you back again. Please feel free to contact us directly for your next visit to traverse City, thank you, Scott

Traverse City Winter Weekend

Review by Susan C.
The condo is right on the bay and a short drive to Traverse City's shopping district and restaurants. The condo is clean. The carpeting is showing some wear in spots, but overall was acceptable. The main floor shower has a slow leak and seems to be discoloring the show floor. Overall it was as described. Would recommend Poppycocks and the Patisserie Amie restaurants. The Beignets amazing!!

Manager Response:
Hi Susan, Thank you for your review. I am so happy to read that you had a great winter trip to North Shore Inn. Each of our condos are privately owned so updates do happen at their own pace. I am glad that you found the location close to so many things to do in Traverse City as we are only 3 miles from down town. I hope that you will come spend some time with us again this winter season! Be sure to call us directly if there is anything we can do to assist you in a future booking! Kindly, Autumn Adams NME Staff.

A little piece of H8eaven on Acme Bay

Review by stacy b.
The North Shore in is located on the very East Side of the beautiful clear waters and Sandy beaches of acme Bay, It has 27 fully equipped condominiums That all have aspectacular views of the Bay To enjoy those sunrises and sunsets, We were in unit 302, It's on the 3rd floor it has a Queen bedroom a fully equipped kitchen a half bath a living Room and a balcony On the main floor, also a stairway that takes you up to a very spacious 2nd Room with another Queen bed full bath and its own Balcony. It has a nautical décor as most other units do as well, They also have a good size pool on the side of the building that was wonderfully heated to 85*, So if the beach waters aren't perfect the pool is. The staff is always friendly and happy to assist you in anything you may need. the property is always kept immaculate to ensure all guest happiness, And safety. I have been Recommending this place to people for years. They got a new general manager his name is Scott a very nice man that will truly go out of his way to make every guest feel special. Also a shout out to Autumn who is head of housekeeping And helps run the front desk, She is very helpful with Area information And General questions. Thanks for another great stay North Shore we will see ypu next year. Oh and most importantly if this is your destination it is best Advice to book a year in advanced, This little gem books Quickly.

Would Love to Return ☺️

Review by Asia M.
The rental was beautiful and the view was outstanding. The space was clean and the owners provided books and games and movies for additional entertainment. The kitchen was fully stocked and I enjoyed the decor. However, my only concern was a pretty large concern. The bed in the master bedroom was extremely uncomfortable, lumpy, bumpy, sunken in on the right side. I was unable to sleep comfortably during my stay and would suggest the bed be replaced. It greatly impacted the enjoyment of my weekend. Also, there was an outage and we were without power for a few hours, but that was not the fault of the resort.

Manager Response:
Hi Asia, thank you for your review! Your input is very important to us. I will be sure to address your concerns and try to make any future stays more comfortable for you.

However, it is great that you were able to enjoy the views, and the condos amenities made your stay more delightful. We hope you become a returning guest to the North Shore Inn.

Wine and Craft Beer Getaway

Review by Matt S.
This is our 3rd time staying on this property in the past 5 years and we would return again. Great set up for 2 couples splitting costs. Wonderful view overlooking Grand Traverse Bay with a great sunset.Everything was neat and clean. All staff members were pleasant, professional and helpful. The only downside was not having an iron and ironing board in each condo and that the iron was missing from the onsite laundry facility. One of the staff did eventually track down the iron for us however.

Manager Response:
Hi Matt, thank you for the 5 star review! We are glad that you are a returning guest and hope to see you again in the future. I am sorry that I was not able to track the iron down fast for you, it is difficult when guest take the iron into their units and don't return it nor let any staff know. I will pass your concerns along to the unit owners. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you! Autumn, NME Staff

Magnificent View and Relaxing Experience

We enjoyed so much the beautiful and comfortable "home away from home". The apartment was tastefully decorated with all needed amenities and a clear front view of the Lake. Scott, the manager and all staff we met were most helpful during our stay. We would highly recommend this property to others and hope to return again. Thanks to you and the Owners!

Conveniently Located

Unit was nice and conveniently located. The only problem was we could get our unit until 4:00 instead of 3:00 because cleaning was short staffed. We enjoyed our time in Traverse City.

TART Biking

Great location for access to the TART bike trail as well being directly on the beach. Check-in and out procedure easy. Paper products, garbage bags not in unit as described, but quickly delivered when brought to mgmt's attention. Blankets needed washing so we just didn't use them during stay. Would recommend, and stay in this unit again.

Consider me a repeat now

Review by Linda J.
This condo is clean with furniture that looks newer. The water views from the master upstairs and the deck off the living room were beautiful. Enjoyed the beach and the pool! Much more quiet than a hotel. Located away from the busy downtown, but a quick drive with a morning cafe and other restaurants nearby. Check in was easy, and we will be back.

Cozy Location

Review by Sharon S.
Check in & out was smooth. Both beds need updated mattresses - 2 of the 3 of us had back aches the next days. The location of the condo along the road was noiser than expected. Lovely view.
3 out of 5 stars
Manager Response:
Thank you for your review. The feedback is a bit surprising as both mattresses are new within the year. Unfortunately, we are located along a major highway so the noise from traffic can get loud at times, although you will find this problem at any of the waterfront hotels located along US-31, we do apologize and hope that you will stay with us again! - North Shore Inn Management

We had a great stay at this condo. It served our purpose as a home-base very well. The accommodations were exactly what we needed & were expecting, but I particularly loved the quiet time in the morning by the lakeside.

A Nice Winter Break

The trip to Traverse City was a spur of the moment decision and finding this condo in such a great location was perfect. The condo was clean, had nice views of the partially frozen Grand Traverse Bay. The on-site manager was very friendly and helpful with any questions. Looking forward to going back to the North Shore Inn condos.

Wonderful Weekend!

Review by Julie G.
It was a girls' weekend away, and we had a wonderful time! The condo unit is just perfect for a place to "land" after a day out at the wineries and shopping. It is just a comfortable destination; it feels like home! Staff was so nice. I stayed here last year, and I have and will continue to recommend North Shore Inn to others. Plus, we'll be back!
