Wonderful getaway!

This is a lovely classic cottage right on the lake. The views are spectacular, and we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights. The cottage has all the necessary amenities and is a perfect place to spend time at Lake Leelanau. It’s located a short ride to the halfway point of the Leelanau Trail, so you can easily bike into Traverse City or Suttons Bay. Highly recommended!

Charming cottage!

We enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cottage for a week. 2 couples and 2 dogs. The location is great, the house is as described, cozy and charming. The garden and planters are full of flowers, very pretty. The house and outdoor areas are comfortable. The owners are very responsive.

Great Location

Our family had a nice time at the cottage. There is plenty of space outiside to relax. The kitchen had most of the utesils and basic spices needed for cooking. It was very close to Traverse city wich was convenient. The property owners were quick to respond. I would recomend bringing water shoes if you plan on swimming due to the amount of rocks in the lake.

Classic lakeside cottage on a lovely lake

Jane and Jack were so friendly and helpful and their cottage is delightful. We heard loons at night and saw bald eagles fly over during the day. It was wonderful to sit on the dock and watch the sun set.

Classic Summer Lake House

A fantastic location for all-day water sports and beautiful northern Michigan sunsets. Not at all rustic, but more of a classic seasonal lake house. Everything was clean and tidy, and the home is well-appointed with everything you need for a great week on the lake. We had 7 adults and never felt crowded - spending most of our time out on the lake, on the dock deck, or in the front room that overlooks the lake. Parking is limited to 4 vehicles and there is not room on property to store your boat trailer (we improvised and made it work). The public boat launch is 2 miles away.
