Lake Michigan at it’s best

Almost private Lake Michigan beach front house. Fantastic location for Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore Park and all the Leelanau Peninsula fun. Stunning sunsets with great campfires. Perfect place for a multi-generational family week.

Love every minute!

We stayed here over spring break this year. We absolutely loved the view, the privacy and the proximity of the dunes. I worked here remotely for a couple days with my kids before my husband and nephews came up for the weekend. I was able to start the day with a cup of coffee overlooking the lake and ended each day with a glass of wine and a beautiful sunset. Absolutely a relaxing place to stay. Will definitely be back!

Great beach stay

We loved the location of the property and a walkable beach. The house was very roomy for our family of 3. We had a few issues with the master bath sinks that were backed up and the grill not starting but the owner offered to help talk us through trying to get the grill going. The appliances are very dated but they worked. Very deep sofas so we were glad we brought our own pillows and a sofa cushion from home to support our backs. The house is very pretty and the property on the water is beautiful with gorgeous sunsets. About 5 miles to Leland and about 25 min to Glen Arbor. We had a wonderful stay.

Gorgeous beach

Our family greatly enjoyed this beautiful vacation home. The house is well appointed and the location can't be beat. The beach this year is quite large and allows for long walks in either direction. The cottage is situated just north of the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore, which is only a short walk down the beach. It's also a convenient distance to Leland and Glen Arbor. We hope to return again and again!

Wonderful!!

Our family had a wonderful winter getaway! The house is spectacular- right on the water with lovely interior decorating. Our kids had a blast in the bunk beds. We went skiing nearby, walked the beach at morning and sunset and saw so many petoskey stones! The owners were quick to respond too. We loved our stay and would love to come back up!

Fall Family Beach Week

We hosted my family from North Carolina at this gorgeous property for a week, and despite lots of rain, everything was quite wonderful. We made it down to the beach for walks and bonfires almost every day, we did a few hikes when we had glimmers of sun, and we enjoyed spending time together in the well-appointed home. Some of us were working remotely, and we had ample space between the spacious rooms and the living area for respective Zoom calls, and the spaces even accommodated my toddler and infant. Responses from the owners was quick and thoughtful, and the house had everything we needed. Absolutely hoping to book again!
