In the narrows on Lake Leelanau, pet friendly, sleeps 8, and a dock!

We were sorely disappointed in this property. The smell of mildew was overpowering when we stepped into the home. We tried airing it out and using air fresheners but nothing worked for the entire week we were there. The home is an old vacation type with mismatched decor and tired fixtures. Dead bugs on the bed covers. Mouse droppings in the kitchen drawers. Had to wash all dishes and silverware before use. Floors were uneven and sloping. TV was very small. Towels were old and mismatched. Not one bar of soap. Two rolls of toilet paper. Lots of room for a larger family. Lake access is a walk down to a series of docks that say do not enter. Location to area attractions is good.

This place was the perfect size for our two families of four. With four adults and four kids, having two living room areas was ideal—it gave the kids their own space, which helped them settle down at night. The location was also fantastic! We loved being able to walk to the dock to fish and then spend our days at the Lake Michigan beaches. The only suggestion I have is to improve communication with the owner, as messages sent through VRBO didn’t seem to go through.

Very nice location.

Property was great. We didn’t want to leave. We will definitely be staying there again.

We stayed with our four kids and brought the boat. The kids fished off the dock where we parked the boat during our stay. In walking distance of a grocery store, Fiddleheads breakfast/lunch spot, the Boathouse Winery, the Capital Dog (great ice cream), a True Value and even a gas station.Plenty of seating on the deck and the four queen beds (two were pull out couches) worked for our family. If needed plenty of space for an air mattress. Typical northern Michigan cabin: small kitchen but open to the rest of the place, small bathroom, settled wood floors. so much charm, felt like going to grandmas house :) lots of extra towels and bedding if needed. AC units kept the house nice and cool in the humid late July heat!

Sweet cottage. Wooded with cut grass. Flowers, birds, bunnies. Short distance to dock on the narrows. Super clean, quaint, all looks original to the ‘70s. Everything worked perfectly. Peaceful. Loved it and would rent again. Great patio.

This was a well loved cottage that was great for our family of four’s summer holiday stay. The location between Leland and Suttons Bay can’t be beat and we appreciated the walking distance to the store and Fiddleheads. The beds were comfortable but pull out couches probably aren’t ideal for a multi-night stay. Overall, we enjoyed the week!

We immediately had to air the place out and kill 50 flies. There were many dead flies, ants and spiders throughout the place, also found mouse poop. Hair on the toilet seat/rim, as well as on the floors. We enjoyed or stay once we cleaned up the above issues. Worked out well to have our dog with us, which is why we booked this location. Was a nice space and had everything we needed just need more attention to cleaning before renters arrive.

We were looking for a dog friendly rustic place that was peaceful, private, and affordable. This place was just as advertised and the location is perfect!

Dogs loved it, decor has feel that you are staying at grandma’s and neighbors are campers. So price felt bit out of line for overall experience. It worked for me and the dogs, would not been ideal for family.
