Relaxation Retreat!!
From booking this lovely retreat to closing the door to go home....everything was smooth and easy! We had a wonderful weekend! This home is cozy, clean and extremely well equipped with everything you could want from a vacation rental and more! Beautifully decorated and comfortable. Three couples on a golf and wine tasting weekend, so close to everything very centrally located. Erin the owner was a SUPER HOST and was so helpful with tips to get around as this was a Triathlon Weekend but we never even noticed the race. A fabulous golf course just minutes from the home along with shopping and wonderful restaurants was enjoyed by all. Hospitality PLUS! The fire pit, basketball hoop, and Foosball table was a pleasant surprise! All in all 10 stars!!! Thank you for a wonderful time!!

Lovely
If you have ever dreamed of living in an Ikea showroom, this is your house! Adorable, well appointed, clean and comfortable. Spent 4 nights here with our college-aged kids. The house is in the woods with a short drive to civilization (haha) -- very close to Pyramid Point which is a perfect spot for family photos : )

Great Stay Up North
The Hydrangea House met out our families expectations and more. The house was clean, updated, and well furnished for our week long stay. It was a great home base centrally located for all of our Up North adventures. The owner gave us plenty of helpful recommendations for dining, shopping, and much more. Whether rafting on the Platte, hitting beaches along Lake Michigan, wine tasting or day tripping to Traverse City on a rainy day, we were just a short drive away. Can't miss with this one!

Absolutely great.
This was a beautiful home/property. It had everything you could want. On top of everything being brand new, the owners provided an expansive list of things to do and places to go, including restaurants and beaches in the area. This was extremely helpful and made our stay much better. The garage was also full of games/activities. Great for kids. This place couldn't be better.

About the host

Hosted by Erin

Host profile image
My husband and I are parents to 11 year old boy/girl twins. Our family has enjoyed many vacations in this area prior to buying this house. We hope to share the house with others, so that they too, will appreciate the beauty and charm of the area. Please let us know if you would like recommendations for restaurants, wineries, swimming holes, or anything else! We would be happy to share our knowledge of the area!

Why they chose this property

Quiet, private house in the woods - close to many beaches - in the middle of it all! The beauty of Leelanau County and central location are what drew us to this property. We've later learned to appreciate that the property has/is: good wi-fi (not a given in Leelanau), far away from any cherry orchards where pesticide sprays can be harmful and last but not least a short drive to the best pie/farm stand in all the area!

What makes this property unique

There is so much to do within a 15 minute drive. Swim in Lake Michigan. Kayak on the Crystal River. Go wine and cider tasting. Climb the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Dine and shop in the Villages of Leland, Lake Leelanau, Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor and Northport. Spend a day at the Glen Arbor park with fantastic tennis, pickleball, basketball and playscape while others can shop, eat or dune climb! Take a sunset cruise in Lake Michigan. Golf at the award winning Arnold Palmer designed Manitou Passage Golf Club within a mile of the house. Enjoy the gorgeous fall colors. Hike or bike the many scenic trails in the county. Pick cherries in the u-pick orchards. Drive the county and explore its beauty. Go on a mushroom hunt. Buy fresh local eggs, produce and baked goods at the many roadside stands... Head into Traverse City to: grab a bit to eat, go on a Tall Ship, go swimming, play beach volleyball, play putt putt, pinball, shop, dine, enjoy a local brew or craft cocktail. The opportunities to enjoy the county are endless!
