Come and relax in this secluded river escape. This house is RIGHT ON the Boardman River, across the river from State Land and near by to numerous beautiful hiking trails which cross through old growth forests. The House has 3 bedrooms and can sleep up to 8 people. This a great central spot for you to explore the area! We own many other rental properties and have just finished remodeling this split level ranch house along the Boardman River close to Downtown. The Boardman river winds along River rd into town and then into the Bay. Grand Traverse County and Traverse City have been restoring this sacred River to its natural habitat by removing all the dams. Come and relax on this secluded river! We are close to many beautiful hikes along the Boardman river, including the Brown Bridge Natural Area and the North Country Trail. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom in the upstairs area and there is a pull out futon in the basement level that is very comfortable (the futon mattress has springs). The Dining area looks out over the deck to the River. There are no neighbors to the east of the house and State Land is directly across the River, leaving this spot secluded and quiet. We also have a new hot tub on the deck along the river and we can't wait to host you! ## Property amenities ### Ski - Close to skiing ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - On a river - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Foosball table - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69380000/69374500/69374419/00494c2c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Boardman River Cabin Traverse City - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.4 Exceptional 21 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-10&endDate=2026-01-11&selected=69374419&PinnedHotelID=69374419&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Lobby sitting area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/90000/85000/84948/150379fc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Comfort Inn Traverse City Triangle Neighborhood - Pool - Hot tub - Breakfast included - Free airport shuttle 9.0 Wonderful 983 reviews CA $135 CA $150 total includes taxes & fees Jan 21 - Jan 22, 2026 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-21&endDate=2026-01-22&selected=84948&PinnedHotelID=84948&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Premium bedding, in-room safe, desk, blackout drapes](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/10000/8300/8287/e66a8bdc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hampton Inn Traverse City Traverse City - Pool - Breakfast included - Pet friendly - Parking included 8.2 Very good 1,000 reviews CA $111 CA $123 total includes taxes & fees Jan 4 - Jan 5, 2026 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-04&endDate=2026-01-05&selected=8287&PinnedHotelID=8287&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in available Minimum check-in age: 21 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

The backyard river access was a huge plus and the house was clean and cozy. Communication with the owners was easy and the house was stocked with everything we needed. We'll definitely be back! ##### SARAH F. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Maureen A. Jul 26, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy Upon arrival, the house seem to be in nice working order. When showering downstairs, most shower head holes clogged. I cleaned with vinegar to get a flow. We brought all kinds of outdoor games for the big yard, but could not play out there because of all of the anthills throughout the property. Upstairs, the three bedrooms had fans and only one had a portable air conditioner. Temperatures were in the 80s at night and the one air conditioner upstairs did not work. We notified the owner the following day. She said she would come by And get a new air conditioner. Night number two same issue no AC we cleaned all the filters that were covered in buildup. Night 3, it rained … inside the basement. The owner came, left came back, cleaned with the wet back and towels until 1 AM. At which time she stated she was going to refund our entire amount because of the trouble. Still no new AC, but the fourth night was much cooler. We stripped the beds, cleaned everything as much as we could upon departure and when I reached out about a refund, she was going to give me 1/10 of the amount that I paid for the four nights. I asked for 1/3 of my money back because we did stay there, although we were quite miserable. Why would someone offer a full refund to later say most Vrbo owners wouldn’t give anything. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/49f1d593-4ab3-4b80-b8b7-ab99bb548d2d-1753548597448.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f67c5121-0dd3-4c31-98e9-caad0fc81176-1753548598291.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/711a96a0-1083-49ba-bf18-f2993ccc2bb1-1753548596941.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1429469b-aec7-444c-bb2b-8d9437f24165-1753548596751.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Maureen A.

Aug 1, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Stay on the River Thank you for a great trip! Wonderful house for our family with 3 kids (3, 5 and 7yo). Plenty of space, well stocked, and a fabulous backyard with a swing, hot tub, river (kids could play in the river!), fire pit and a lot of space to run around. The beds were comfortable, the owner thoughtfully stocked staples, games, books, etc. Less than 10 minutes drive in either direction takes you to hiking areas that are beautiful and perfect for kids. We went rafting down the Manistee River, hiking in Sleeping Bear Dunes. Traverse City is 20 minute drive North and the beaches there are easy to access with easy parking. The playground at the Civic Center is great. ##### Rachel W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Derek P.

We rented this house for a girls weekend and it was amazing! The fire pit and hot tub were so relaxing and views of the river were stunning. All of the personal touches and amenities in the house far exceeded our expectations in a rental. Luette, the host, was extremely pleasant and attentive and very prompt with answering all my questions. We would definitely visit the “river house”, as we called it, again! ##### Rachel J.
