Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property was clean and cozy and easy to find. The location is great and within walking distance to many places - a big reason we choose the property. The fire pit was excellent and well stocked with wood.

Such a great stay! Very peaceful and super central on the Leelenau Peninsula so that you can easily visit all the cute towns. A lovely house, very cute. If you plan to work remotely, please note that the WiFi in the cottage wasn’t able to handle video calls, so we needed to use our hotspot from our phones instead.

Great Place/Awesome Location

My family of four (plus one small dog) loved this place! The location was ideal for us traveling to the Dunes, Glen Arbor, Traverse City and more! The place was big enough for the four of us and very clean. The town was super cute and you could walk to various restaurants to eat, coffee shop and grocery store. My kids loved that there was an ice cream place literally next door. We had a great time!

Adult retreat

Great place to stay. Accommodations were clean and well kept. Very quiet and private. Owners were on site and very respectful of our privacy. Across the water from the site is a wildlife sanctuary and you see lots of the wildlife it was very enjoyable. Also the location was centrally located to everything on Lake Leelanau and the northeastern side of Lake Michigan.

Sleeping Bear Vacation

Stayed in the loft for a week. Plenty of room for my husband and myself. Loft was very clean and had everything we needed. There is no oven but has a microwave and a two burner stove. This was fine for us. Pretty scenery from our deck and was able to sit and watch the boats go by in the narrows. The staff at the little marina was very helpful and answered all our questions. Rented a pontoon boat for 2 days and was able to fish and enjoy the lake. The village of Leelanau is small and quiet but centrally located between Sleeping Bear Dunes Park and Traverse City. Never drove more than 30 minutes to anywhere we wanted to go. Did lots of hiking and some bike riding at Sleeping Bears Dune Park very beautiful. Bike trails are in good condition and mostly paved. Hilary the owner was very nice and easy to work with. He met us when we got there and explained everything to us. We usually saw him at least once a day out by the marina. Would stay in the loft again.

Great place to stay in Leland, great location on the narrows.

We loved our stay - the property was right now the narrows with a large yard for the kids to run around. A lot of great places within walking distance for when you are not on the water. We would definitely consider staying here again!

This property was adequate and in a lovely spot.Unfortunately, the oven did not work, which limited our cooking meals there.Also, we had an elderly parent with us, and the steps into cottage had no railing.The cottage would also benefit from extra blankets for the cooler weather.

Good location but unsatisfactory stay

The location was great. Appreciated the setting. But We had to leave a night earlier because the inside was over 90 degrees and we could not sleep in the heat. It was also odd that a family camped out right outside of the window.
