Cozy Cottage on Lake Leelenau

This is the second time we stayed at this cottage to observe the fall colors in Michigan. We love the quaintness of the cottage and the great views of the lake. The owners, Bob and Caroline, are absolutely wonderful and we plan to return in the future.

Fall anniversary weekend

We celebrated our anniversary with a weekend getaway at this cottage. It's small, but perfect for two people. Very clean and cozy, with a beautiful view of Lake Leelanau. Great location to visit wineries on the Leelanau Peninsula, close to restaurants, hiking trails, dunes, etc. And our hosts were lovely. We would stay again!

This nice cozy cottage was on Lake Leelenau and offered great views of the lake. The cottage was very clean and came with all of the items needed for an enjoyable stay.

We love Lake Leelanau!

The cottage was well maintained. Beautiful gardens!! It lacks a paved walkway to the door.(I am using a cane). The WiFi code provided by the website was incorrect. Loved the fire pit. Overall a great stay! Thank you!

Lovely place!

It was a lovely place to stay. Beautiful sunrises. Very clean house. Unfortunately the first night we noticed the hot water smelled like eggs/sulfur. The owner was very responsive and found the issue the next day. Even though the issue couldn’t be resolved during our stay, it could be resolved prior to the next guest.

Beautiful cottage

We had a nice stay at this lovely spot in the middle of the Leelanau Peninsula. I had a fair amount of trouble finding the cottage - it’s tucked behind the owner’s garage. No phone number was provided for the property manager, but I did eventually locate the cottage. An added bonus were all the beautiful flowers on the property!

Clean, cute cottage right on the water. For it being an older cottage it was spotless and such comfy furniture. The beds were the best! We cooked most of the meals there and I had all I needed for dishes and pots and pans.

Lovely cottage right on Lake Leelenau. Very clean. All amentities listed. Perfect dock to sit on, read and watch the waves. Too cold to swim but we did last year and enjoyed it. Great owners and we hope to visit again.
