Summary: We absolutely LOVED our stay here. The cottage was pristine, updated and has everything you need – it is actually larger than it looks in the photos. You are right on the water and we feel the beach is the best in Michigan – it is so private and quiet. We loved falling asleep to the sounds of the waves AND the gentle sounds of the tiny creek that runs through the property. Andrew and Faith were extremely communicative and could not have been more lovely to work with. Highly recommended!

Summary: This Lake Michigan cottage provided a perfect hub for a beautiful week on Leelanau. The property was neat and clean with several obvious recent upgrades. Communication from the owners was outstanding. The beds were comfortable which, coupled with the soothing sounds of waves coming ashore, led to some of the best sleep we have had in some time. As nice as the cottage is, the beach area is equally amazing. The beautiful clear blue water and miles of wide sandy beach complete with all the beautiful stones (including Petoskies and blues) a person could want, makes it tough to find time to explore the numerous attractions Leelanau has to offer. Our only complaint was that the week seemed too short. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone. We certainly hope to return!

Summary: We loved our stay at this 1930’s cottage on the lake. Waking up every day to the peaceful sounds of the waves and vivid colors of the trees was quite refreshing and a true escape from city life. We already miss the warm sunlight streaming in through the windows, the sounds of the birds every day, and walking along the beach. The owner Andrew was awesome, and reached out upon arrival to ensure we had what we needed. The beds and linens and towels are super comfortable. The living area has a gorgeous bay of open windows facing the lake. We loved the location in between Leland and Northport, and enjoyed getting to explore the north side of Leelanau county while hiking at the state park and many other trails. Gorgeous!! Thank you! Lynn and Marc

Summary: This really is a special property. Right on Lake Michigan, the sound of the surf coming through the window, the beach sandy and easily accessible. The cottage is larger than it looks in the photos (we thought), and the bathroom and beds are great. Very comfortable place to relax and enjoy the region. Would recommend highly and stay again if possible.
