    a lovely spot, right on the water and incredibly peaceful, especially in the early autumn. The cabin is rustic, but it has everything you could possibly need and is very comfortable. The gas fireplace was perfect on cool mornings and falling asleep listening to the waves lap at the shore outside was priceless. The icing on the top of this birthday week cake was the appearance of the northern lights, which were perfectly visible looking north from the end of the dock. Magical!

    This is a beautiful home with all the perfectly old quirks you'd imagine from a 100 year old home. Things you might not know going into your stay: You will be sharing the outdoor pavilion with the neighbors, who are very lovely, and were honestly never out there. There is a full time tenant in the detached garage, but you don't ever see him but coming and going from work. If you have a larger group, and are staying for an extended time, be sure you bring or buy extra toiletries and paper towel. There is a fourth bedroom that you will have to get to by going through the third bedroom. What you need to know: The house is charming and screams with history....think bootleggers! The house is literally a one of a kind as it's grandfathered in to be ON the lake. There was only one other home like this and it was tore down. You can't beat the view! The owners are super responsive and friendly. I would for sure stay again.

    Home is just like pictures. Hosts are incredibly kind and easy to connect with. Location is great - right on the water, close enough to town, but far enough away to enjoy the peace of the lake.

    We had an excellent stay at the property. We had two young kids and the set up was perfect on the water. Great location, close to Traverse, Suttons Bay, etc. Hosts were responsive and the house was well stocked with linens and household products. 5 starts!

    We had a wonderful week at this home. Location on the lake was perfect. We enjoyed swimming right off the dock, the ground was clear and very few rocks. The cottage was great for our family & dogs. Kitchen was well stocked. Can't beat the view out the back of the home or from the back porch. Jane was extremely responsive for anything we needed and called after check-in to make sure we were all set. Would stay here again on our next trip to Lake Leelanau.

    This is a lovely classic cottage right on the lake. The views are spectacular, and we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights. The cottage has all the necessary amenities and is a perfect place to spend time at Lake Leelanau. It’s located a short ride to the halfway point of the Leelanau Trail, so you can easily bike into Traverse City or Suttons Bay. Highly recommended!
