Working with Jamie at Bella Traverse Design was an easy and wonderful experience, from the initial consult to the final finished walk-through. From the very beginning, Jamie was professional, yet easy-going. What we liked best about her is that she gracefully and knowledgeably led us through the design and remodel process since we knew nothing it and were just getting into the short-term rental arena.

Jessica R ~ Stony Lake, Mi

Jamie was personable, and easy to communicate with. She listened to my problem areas where I feel clueless on how to decorate. She asked questions on what I do and don’t like. I’m excited to see what ideas she has for my project!

Shannon C ~ Shelby, MI
I am completely clueless when it comes to picking out furnishings, finishes, or paint colors. I know what I like/don’t like but not how to choose items that are stylistically cohesive. I am so glad we hired Jamie at Bella Traverse Design to help us with our remodel. We practically gutted our new house and she helped us every step of the way. She made

Eva B ~ Norton Shores, Mi

Jamie did a fantastic job of understanding our likes, colors, material, and functionality of what we were trying to design. She was absolutely wonderful to work with and communication was always prompt. She hit it out of the park for us. We’ve had so many compliments on the colors that were used our backsplash in the kitchen and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Jamie was great to work with, and she did a great job! I would recommend Bella Traverse very highly. Jamie communicated to me throughout the process and everything was done exactly the way she said it would be……and it was done on schedule!

Sharon G. ~ Muskegon, MI.
Jamie was great through the whole process! I had just purchased a home and wanted to renovate it to have a coastal theme. I hired Jamie to help me select paint colors, furniture, and some accessories for the house. She listened to my vision and then made it happen. We were in contact throughout the process and she provided me with examples of ideas or

Marlene W. ~ Spring Lake, MI.

Jamie was very responsive and easy to work with. Once she got a feel of our expectations she was able to run with it and came up with some great designs.

Steve D. ~ Vermont

Jamie did a phenomenal job with our very large kitchen remodel. She diligently stayed on top of all of the pieces and worked well with our contractor. She’s communicates well and really pieced together a design perfect for our tastes.

Liz C. ~ Holland, MI.
This house is stunning! We had a large group coming to celebrate a wedding after the world shut down from covid. The home had tons of common spaces for gathering as well as so many private rooms to have some time alone as needed There’s no AC but there are quiet ceiling fans in every space as well as stand fans for common spaces (tons

Sarah
The house is amazing. Interior is kept up perfectly and looks just like the pictures. All of the furniture is brand new and in great shape. Beds were extremely comfortable, including super soft sheets. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need. Plenty of space, we had 8 people and could have easily fit a couple more. Location is beautiful and super quiet. Stairs

Kevin
This place is absolutely incredible – the interior, exterior and location are all stellar. We had 12 people and had more than enough room for everyone. The kitchen is well-stocked, the pool table provided some great indoor fun, and the porches are the perfect place to hang out. The kayaks and paddle boards were an appreciated perk, and we also spent plenty of time at

Karen

Great house! The open living room I was our favorite place to just sit and talk. Catch up with some friends after a long time apart! Thanks Jamie!

Michael
This house was amazing. We loved every part of it. We stayed with our teenage and adult children, and they absolutely loved it also. We spent most of our days exploring michigan’s west coast beach towns, but at night- the house was perfect for our group! The pool table was a great touch for hours of entertainment, and the sonos sound system was amazing! We

Melissa
Our family had an incredible time here! Communication leaving up to our reservation was clear and frequent, check in was easy and the stay was very comfortable! The kitchen and pantry are particularly well stocked (plenty of spices and condiments), the boathouse and kayaks were used almost daily and the main beach on lake michigan was very nearby. We felt right at home and hope

Myreen

Perfect house for our weekend getaway! Plenty of space, in comfortable bedrooms for our party of 4 couples. Clean and welcoming all around. Beautiful surroundings, and stunning views. Jamie was very communicative and responsive. We had everything we needed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Will definitely come back!

Majbrith
Wow! The pictures really capture this beautiful historic house – and the view from the huge porch is amazing as well. We had four adults and four older teens, and it was the perfect size for us, and the pool table and yard (for playing cornhole, which we brought) were a big hit. Having a large table indoors and outdoors was also great for group

Kim

This place is amazing. Exceeded all of our expectations and was even better than the pictures showed. Plus its dog friendly.

Adam

An awesome place for a fun weekend with the girlfriends! Beautiful location and view!

We had a great time at this charming lake house. The house is easy to find, clean, comfortable, and super close to a wonderful beach. It was the perfect getaway for our family. Thank you!

Amy
Owner was great at responding to all questions and requests. The house was beautiful and had everything one would need to feel right at home! Spacious, great wifi and had a beautiful view! ! We didnt have time to take advantage of the kayaks or paddle boards, but a great plus! ! Quiet area, one mile to lake michigan to watch the beautiful sunsets! !

Viola
We celebrated my husband’s 40th birthday along with 2 other couples and the house was perfect for our group. It is exactly as pictured and was stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Jamie was very prompt with communicating and also was able to accommodate our late checkout request, which was so nice! The location is also lovely and we enjoyed kayaking around white
