This listing is Flat 201

Each flat is immersed in downtown Traverse City. You can walk to everything.

The corner units, Flat 201 and Flat 301 have views of West Bay down Union Street. Flat 302 has floor to ceiling windows facing Front St, the main street in downtown Traverse City. Flat 205 and 304 face west for the sunset. Flat 203 faces south and has bedrooms that are tucked into the building and show off the brick construction from 1890.

Each flat includes a fully equipped modern kitchen. We are proud to offer plush king beds adorned with soft linens locally sourced from Eelo (you can find our website by searching “Eelo Traverse City”). Eelo is owned by the Vander Roest family (one of the two families that own Front and Union) and occupies the ground floor retail space of the Front and Union building. Eelo sources, designs and manufactures its own organic, fair trade household linens. It has been reported in reviews that our linens will provide some of the best sleep you’ll ever have. The flats are fully furnished with a Scandinavian feel, functional, yet simple.

The Flats at Front + Union are located within the historic Masonic Building, built in 1890 and repurposed into a multi use building in 2023 by two local Traverse City families.

For Summer, West Bay beach, the marina and open space are all one block away. The Sleeping Bear Dunes are within a 45 minute drive.

In the Fall, enjoy a daytime color tour in Leelanau or Old Mission Peninsula followed by dinner and drinks at the famous Restaurants in downtown Traverse City.

Winter activities include skiing at local ski hills, Hickory and Mt Holiday, day trips to Boyne Mountain or Crystal Mountain, cross country or skate skiing at the VASA trail, or a simple snowshoe at Sleeping Bear Dunes.

For a real treat, visit us in the Spring. No crowds. It is a time of rejuvenation in Northern Michigan.

There is no better location for immersing yourself in all the seasonal events Northern Michigan has to offer. We invite you to visit us on our website for more information on the experience as well as discounted rates.

The Flats is a perfect place to stay in TC!

The location is perfect--close to everything and very walkable. Our flat was beautifully furnished with a comfy and tasteful vibe and it was well-stocked with dishes, glasses, and linens. In particular, I really appreciated the generous supply of high-quality towels. This was our second stay at The Flats and it won't be our last!

Amazing accommodations

This was our first stay at the Flats, and we could not have been more pleased. From the owner's personal assistance in helping us make, and update our reservations, to a reserved parking parking spot, to a spacious, clean and modern interior, everything was immaculate, well-appointed, and very comfortable. Simply a great place to stay.

Wonderful place with many amenities

Loved this flat! We stayed in 201. It was bright and airy and stocked perfectly; kitchen, bathrooms, washer and dryer. Very clean and modern, but welcoming and cozy. The beds were nice and comfortable. The location can’t be beat, with many restaurants and shops within walking distance. The hosts were really accommodating as well.

Simply Superb!

The experience of staying at the Flats on Front & Union was second to none. Every amenity was considered. The Flats were trendy, clean and upscale. Loved the interior design and the local artwork. What a refreshing week in TC from a prime location and hosts that know how to pamper.

Amazing place to stay in downtown TVC!

The Flats at Front and Union are the ideal place to stay in Traverse City! Right in the heart of town and walking distance to everything! The water is just a few blocks away. The flats are spacious, clean, and gorgeous. Steve was a wonderful help and very accommodating!

Comfortable Luxury

The flat was clean, organized and inviting. It seemed like every detail had been considered. We loved having a nice dining table to work at/eat at and sit and look at the city below. The location of the flats is unbeatable. We were in town for a conference at a nearby hotel and were able to walk everywhere! Also, having a dedicated parking spot included was so helpful. I cannot wait for my next trip to The Flats at Front and Union!

Wine, Golf & Beer weekend

The Flats worked out perfect for our group. 2 couples in each condo. Easy access, great location, clean and all the amenities we needed. Worked out well, golf and wine tasting during the day, then back to the Flats to walk to dinner and night life! We will be back! Thank you!

Great spot

The Flats are at a great location in TC. Fantastically appointed and easy to work with. Only downside is some street noise at night. Use some white noise, and it is fine.

Perfect!

The Flats are ideally located in the heart of downtown and a quick walk to the water. The unit we stayed in was spotless and beautifully decorated in a minimal but comfortable way. Towels are plentiful, all the dishes and silverware match, the rooms are spacious and full of light—nothing is missing. We will definitely return!

Airy, clean, and convenient

We stayed at the flats for a long weekend while visiting family. It was my first time in TVC, so being conveniently located smack in the middle of town was ideal. We loved our morning walks to Mundos coffee. The flats were a welcoming cozy landing pad during our stay! The linens were divine and we loved shopping downstairs at Eelo where the bedding and towels were sourced. I will say, the weekend evenings were loud until late in the night/morning, but that’s to be expected in a downtown location. The flats were extremely easy to access and felt very safe. Having our own parking spot was a perk as well.

Perfect Location - Adorable Unit

This historical building and unit has been beautifully renovated. The decor is perfect, and everything is brand new. The flat had everything we needed, and checking in and out was a breeze. The management was super responsive and accommodating. The modern, updated units make for a comfortable stay. One dedicated parking spot was great for quick trips outside of downtown. We were able to walk all around downtown. I highly, highly recommend this place!
