Love staying here!

My sister and I stayed here for the second time and loved it just as much as the first time. The setting is so quiet and peaceful, the house is clean and just like the photos show. We were a short drive from shopping and wineries. We love coming here!

Perfect Lakeside Cottage

We loved our stay at this adorable cottage on Lake Leelanau. It was perfect for our family of four… My only complaint was that when we booked the cottage, it showed one of the rooms as having bunk beds, which would’ve been perfect for our two children. When we arrived, the bunkbeds had been taken out and replaced by a queen bed. Other than that, the cottage, location, and lakefront property were all absolutely perfect!
