Our Carriage house is available for long-term stays this summer!
"🐴✨ Perfect Horse Show Home Base — Traverse City, MI | Horse Shows by the Bay
If you've been searching for somewhere truly special to stay during Horse Shows by the Bay, this one's for you.
A rare window of availability has just opened at the French Country Apartment in the historic Carriage House at Wellington Inn — and yes, this building literally used to stable ponies. 🐎 It felt only right.
📅 Available July 16 — August 23
🏡 What you get:
✔️ 2 bedrooms (queen beds) — great for sharing with a trainer, fellow rider, or family
✔️ Full kitchen — cook your own meals & fuel those early show mornings
✔️ In-unit washer/dryer — because breeches don't wash themselves
✔️ Living & dining area — perfect for debriefing after a big day of classes
✔️ Tub/shower bathroom — soak away the soreness, you've earned it
📍 Walkable to everything downtown Traverse City has to offer — waterfront, restaurants, wine bars, boutique shopping, and the beautiful shores of Grand Traverse Bay. Come for the show, stay for the views.
Fully and lovingly restored with bright French Country charm — it feels like a home, not a hotel, which is exactly what you need for a week-long show stay.
