About this property

Relax, Unwind and Recharge on Grand Traverse Bay at Blue Calm

Relax, unwind and recharge on Grand Traverse Bay at Blue Calm.

Prepare to be overcome with a sense of calm and peace at first glimpse of Lake Michigan’s inviting turquoise waters during your stay at Blue Calm.

Down the winding wooded drive, the cabin awaits. Beyond, faint sounds of gentle waves caressing the beach frontage can be heard. Stunning sunrise displays of every color in the rainbow greet the dawn. Tranquil waters call for carefree beach days, kayaking or paddle boarding (one of each available), perhaps towards Northport’s renowned Gull Island. Curl up on a beach hammock for a relaxing nap or
escape to the front deck to read in sunny solitude. Enjoy a backyard picnic, savoring local farmers market finds and meals off the gas grill. Unwind with a newfound local wine or brew under the covered lakeside deck on the porch swing for two. After a full day, gaze up to nighttime skies to see the stars as never before while roasting marshmallows atop the campfire. Finally, be lulled into a restful slumber to
recharge to the subtle chirp of crickets and light waves. And repeat.

Springtime 2023 brings additional new features to Blue Calm, most notably the newly updated Living Room space. Up to 7 guests are welcomed at the non-smoking property with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and open concept main living area. The master bedroom features a king sized bed with a newly added TV. Full bath, laundry room, kitchen and dining areas round out the first floor with the crown jewel being the Great Room, where turquoise waters beckon through the double sliding glass doors. The second floor houses two bedrooms: the queen room sits lakefront while the bunk room (with full over full bed plus a twin trundle) also features a lake view. Upstairs bedrooms share a 3/4 bath with sitting loft. A TV is provided in the Great Room for local channel viewing or logging in to your favorite app. Guests are invited to unplug and explore Up North as internet speeds are often not suited for streaming on multiple devices or hot days.

In effort to preserve this majestic haven of respite, owners make a concerted effort to be ecologically responsible. From non-toxic cleaning products to recycled paper products and cloth alternatives when available, onsite recycling and composting, Blue Calm strives to minimize its environmental impact.

The log cabin is central to Northern Michigan’s abundance of wineries, restaurants,
hiking/biking/running trails, boating, casino’s and more! Blue Calm is situated within a 10 minute drive of downtown Northport & Suttons Bay and about 45 minutes of Traverse City & the Nationally acclaimed Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Welcome, to your relaxing getaway to unwind and recharge on Grand Traverse Bay at Blue Calm!

Beautiful water view
Cabin was clean but had to deal with fruit flies. ( that time of year) When walking across the floor sounds like bubble wrap. The cabin was well appointed. The view was amazing. It was close to many villages but still private. Outside space with firepit overlooking the Bay was our favorite. Plus found four Petoskey stones. They also need a larger coffee pot that works. But on the whole a very nice stay.

Blue and Calm
This is the 3rd year staying at Blue Calm and each year improvements are made on an already restful location. The owners are very easy to communicate with and quickly respond to any questions we have. One thing that I personally love is that inside you have all of the comforts of home, and outside is almost like camping with a sandy lot and nice firepit, hanging hammocks and water toys.
