Rented property for family for our son's wedding. Location was great. All instructions for check in and check out were provided and the process was smooth. Owner was easy to communicate with. They also provided a list of attractions and local favorites which was helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at the Blue Stone Cottage! It is in a perfect neighborhood providing gorgeous surroundings for walks, including an easy walk to downtown Leland/ Fishtown and access to a beautiful & secluded beach. The cottage was extremely clean and very comfortable; it was stocked with all you would need, and some special touches in soaps and linens. I actually loved the soaps and bought the same ones when I got home! The bedding was especially nice, and the king bed mattress was the one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on. Would highly recommend a stay here!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Extremely rustic, not at all updated and ugly furnishings and bedding. Bugs and cobwebs everywhere. The silverware drawer was full of crumbs and dirt. No throw blankets, no beach towels, no Tupperware. The garage opens into a bedroom. If you’re looking for just a place to sleep, close proximity to the town and beach and not much else, this could work for you.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 July 2026
Yes, life by the lake is rustic! Thats why we all love it! I’ll definitely have the staff take care of the kitchen crumbs and take extra special care to hunt down the cobwebs. Thanks for the alert! I’ll review the bedding too as I always take care to be sure all linens and towels and bedding are refreshed often. Maybe you prefer a more neutral color scheme? I’ll double check and replace whatever looks tired. Again, thanks for letting me know. My staff and I work hard to maintain our 5 star rating which I have across all my properties. I’ll get right to work on these updates. Glad you liked the location within a quick walk to the beach and Fishtown on quiet back streets.
