A Little Piece of Heaven

What an amazing house for our family! The location is unbelievable on Lake Leelanau. The lake is really shallow for a long way out, so it's great for young kids to play in. The house itself is so nice and clean. And, they have it stocked up with everything you could possibly need. Beach towels, water shoes, Marshmello sticks, and so much more. I've never stayed in a rental home that allowed you to use so much of their stuff. They even have an extremely helpful neighbor that is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure you have a great vacation. We couldn't be happier with our stay!

Roomy but dated

This home was well appointed with lots of space and a good location. Furnishings and decor were dated. The biggest issue was communication. A 3rd party was involved that took over 2 weeks to get back to me. I couldn't verify I had paid because VRBO isn't aware of the payment to the 3rd party. I will avoid booking a house that uses a 3rd party booking service in the future.
