The Ultimate Pet-Friendly Getaway: Why Guests (and Their Pups) Love The Haven

Finding the perfect vacation rental can be tough. Finding one that is stylish, spotlessly clean, and truly welcomes your furry family members can feel almost impossible. That's why we created The Haven—a cozy, modern retreat in Traverse City designed for the whole family, especially the four-legged ones.

Our goal was to create a space where you can relax without worry, and based on the wonderful feedback from our recent guests, it seems The Haven has become just that: a true paradise for pups and their people.

A Backyard Oasis for Pups and People

The heart of The Haven experience is the private, fully-fenced backyard. We designed it to be an oasis where everyone can unwind. While you soak in the hot tub or gather around the fire pit, your dog can safely explore and play. It’s the ultimate peace of mind.

Our guests have loved this feature:

"The fenced in backyard and where the hot tub was placed were the best part for us. Our dog was able to zoom around while we relaxed in the hot tub." - Aly, March 2025

"The back yard was perfect with an awesome hot tub, lights, fire pit and fully fenced for our fur baby to run and play." - Brieanne, January 2025

Thoughtful Touches That Say "Welcome"

Being "dog-friendly" is more than just allowing pets. It's about anticipating the needs of pet owners to make their stay effortless. From providing dedicated dog bowls and towels to extra sheets for snuggling on the furniture, we've tried to think of everything.

It means the world to us when our guests notice these little details:

"Flat sheets were even provided to cover the furniture for our pup so all of us felt right at home." - Aly, March 2025

"If you have a dog and are looking for the perfect get away that will benefit your pup and you, this is the place!" - Dana, March 2023

A cozy living room corner featuring a light gray sectional sofa with matching cushions, accompanied by a sleek floor lamp and a wooden coffee table, creating an inviting space for relaxation.

Spotless, Stylish, and Perfectly Located

A pet-friendly home should never mean compromising on cleanliness or style. We take immense pride in offering a home that feels brand new, with modern decor and an obsessive attention to detail.

Our guests agree:

"Kuddos to their cleaner bc the home was spotless!" - Amy, August 2024

"The place was squeaky clean, and perfect for anyone who has dogs!" - Nick, August 2024

And while The Haven feels like a private retreat, you're just minutes from everything Traverse City has to offer. The TART trail is right across the street, and downtown is a short 5-10 minute drive away, making it the perfect home base for all your adventures.
