Leland Perfection

Susan's house was exactly what we were looking for in a family vacation. The house was perfectly located, set up in a very friendly and clean manner and had all the extra special elements to make for a very memorable trip. I would highly recommend her home to anyone and she was super helpful and communicative through the whole process.

Yellow is my favorite color

This property is as good as it gets. Wonderful home with outstanding views of North Lake Leelanau. Plants everywhere and a beautiful lawn watered daily. They call it Yellow House and yellow is my favorite color! Susan is wonderfully accommodating.

Lovely property

This is a wonderful home! We ranged in age from 9 to 70 and everyone was comfortable and enjoyed the stay. The kitchen was well supplied and the outdoors was set up wonderfully, we only went inside to sleep.

Beautiful house on the lake

This adorable yellow house exceeded our expectations! The interior is clean and updated. The layout worked perfectly for our family and there are plenty of bathrooms! But the real draw is the location and proximity to the lake. The backyard is beautiful. We loved the firepit and spent every night listening to the water while enjoying a fire. The lake is just steps away and we spent a lot of time jumping off the dock into the clear water. Susan is fabulous. She was a very attentive host and kept in close communication when we needed her. My daughter still talks about her fun time "in the yellow house" so we know it was a success!
Response from VrboOwner on 9 September 2020
WOW! Thank you so much! I am thrilled that you liked it so much and I like the visual of everyone jumping in the lake!! I enjoyed having you and hope you come again!

The Yellow House Experience

We had a perfect vacation at this property. The location was walking distance to town, the private dock was just as nice as in the photos and the fire pit area was a wonderful spot for relaxing. Susan was a five star host and was really available for any issues or concerns. Definitely recommend this VRBO rental. My family and I are already wanting to go back! 5 stars, Susan thanks again!
