Mom and Daughter Hang Out

Perfect for my daughter and I to hang out and use the kayaks on a beautiful, clear lake. We used the cozy cabin as a base for exploring the Leelanau Peninsula and for visiting the vibrant town of Traverse City. Hosts were very accommodating.

Great Stay

Great small lakeside cabin. The location of the cabin was perfect for our exploration of the area. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Beautiful waking up to see the fall colors reflected in the lake. Quick walk across the street to Market 22 for a few delicious meals. Did not disappoint!

Perfect family getaway

This property was perfect for our family of 4 for our long weekend getaway. Gorgeous location and view with easy access to activities around Leelenau Peninsula, well stocked with kitchen cookware for doing home-cooked meals, and the kayaks were a big hit! We would absolutely rent this property again!
