Location was excellent for visiting multiple towns in the area. The fenced in back yard was very helpful for our dog. The place was very clean and close to TART trail access for walking and enjoying the area.
This is a very comfortable house, with plenty of room for a family to spread out. Large fenced yard gave our dog — and a visiting friend — a good workout, running around! Ideal location for access to the Leelanau bike trail, Suttons Bay, and Traverse City. The Lakeview Farm Market is just down the road and carries both their own produce and that of other local farmers/artisans, and Farm Club, too, very accessible and fun. Carolyn is a responsive, friendly host
This property is in excellent shape. Very clean and well kept. Great backyard for the dog and plenty of space for everyone to have quiet time. I would highly recommend this property. This is our second time at this location and hope to come back next year. Our granddaughter calls it her Michigan home. She also enjoyed playing with the bubble lawnmower. Great location to the tart trail and quaint little towns.
Great vacation space for family and central location
Very nice property. Plenty of room for our family of 6, well stocked kitchen, and super central to all of our favorite places in Leelanau. Carolyn was a great host and had lots of nice extra touches that made us feel at home. Hope to stay again!!
Had an absolutely amazing stay! The location is perfect - slightly secluded and very relaxing. But still close to all the fun wineries and activities in Traverse City and Sutton Bay.
We were in town for a family wedding, but I would go back just to visit and enjoy the town more. Carolyn was an excellent host and quick to respond. Had a lovely time!
This house is even bigger and nicer than the photos show. The kitchen includes everything you need to cook, utensil-wise. I had brought some items from home, like a veggie peeler and wine opener, but the house had everything. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. Plenty of towels! There's a nice washer and dryer available, so you don't need to pack too many clothes.
The location is great for doing "all the things" in the Leelanau area! We hiked at Empire Bluff, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and several other nearby parks. The views are spectacular. We visited the lighthouse at Northport, several wineries, Fishtown, and it's only 12 minutes into downtown Traverse City.
Tip: Don't miss the Farm Club restaurant down the road! Fabulous fresh, local food!
We have stayed here several times and it’s a very convenient, comfortable spot to have as your home base for day trips in the area. Definitely recommend!
We spent a week here while on vacation. Great home, clean, spacious, very convenient to several towns. They also had a nice fenced in backyard for our dogs, which was great. Carolyn was also helpful and responsive. Would definitely rent there again!
Overall well kept up to date home. Two very nice living areas, well equipped updated kitchen and bath. Fenced yard was nice for our two dogs. Location was great for accessing.the area west of the west bay.
Great property; fenced in back yard; covered deck table and chairs; beautifully decorated interior; all bedrooms large and furnished smartly; kitchen/dining room/ living room great. Lower level entertainment area is clean and spacious! This is our 3rd year to stay at this property, and we love it!
Property is clean and has plenty of room to move around both inside and out. It is conveniently located to Traverse City and the Leelanau Peninsula. We enjoyed our stay.
House was perfect for our group of 4 adults, 3 kids. Great location, super clean and plenty of room for everyone. Communication with Carolyn was excellent. We would happily stay here again in the future.
Loved the house and yard, which was awesome for our dog! Boat launch was a nice, short walk. Loved biking the TART trail,, and many towns are a short drive. House was spacious and wildflowers in yard were beautiful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house has many renovations, and they were done beautifully. Plenty of space for everyone to space out, and yet gather together for games and hanging out. There were 2 family rooms which is great for those who need a place for sports watching in one room, and movies in another😊.
Owner is sweet, and responsive to all communications in a very quick manner.
House is located within 20 mins of Traverse City, Leland, and Suttons Bay. About 30 mins to the dunes.
Highly recommend!
Loved it. Location is great. about 15min to Traverse City. Walk across the road to Lake Leelanau. A lot of great spots 1hr or less from here. The house is beautiful. A lot of updates have been made. The pictures online when we booked it appeared a little dated, but OK. When got there everything was new and top notch. The fenced yard is great for the dogs. House was stocked better than other properties we have stayed at. Highly recommend. Communication with owner was also very prompt and easy.
House was very comfy and had plenty of room for our family group of 6 plus a dog. Very pet friendly and the fenced-in yard was great. Owner was great to work with and was quick to respond when we had questions. We enjoyed the wood fireplace once we figured out how the venting worked.
Clean, comfortable and convenient location. This is a well maintained property. The pictures of the house don’t really show it but the large backyard is totally fenced in, which was peace of mind for my two dogs (they loved it). The communication with the owner was excellent and the welcome gift was perfect and unexpected. A big thank you and definitely would recommend for future visits.
We had an excellent stay, the house was very nice and spacious for our family and pets. We will definitely book again!
