About this property

Leland Home, Only Blocks from Downtown.

Elliott House is only blocks from Lake Michigan, and a short walk to Downtown Leland. This home will sleep 9, has 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, a covered front porch, a back deck, gas grill, gas fire pit, outdoor shower, a fireplace, a "rec" room and much more. . .all with family gatherings in mind! The Master bedroom is on the main floor with a king size bed. The bathroom offers a walk in, custom tiled shower. The Kitchen, with custom cabinets and appliances, opens to the dinning/family room in the front of the home. French doors open off the living room to expand the space on to the screened in porch. The laundry and a 1/2 bath are on the main floor as well. A wet bar allows serving to the back deck as conveniently as the front porch. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, and bath with shower/tub combo and an open area for TV or games from the well equiped game closet. Two of the bedrooms have queen size beds the third room has full size bunk beds----plenty of room for everyone!!. In the basement is the "Rec" room complete with ping pong table, a wet bar, TV, and the third full bath.

Leland is centrally located to everything Leelanau County has to offer. Starting with Sleeping Bear Dunes---Voted best National Park in America by Good Morning America. We have historical Fishtown. A fishing harbor that still has a working fishing company and the "fish shanties" have been preserved and converted into unique and quaint shops. More shops are in the little downtown district. Although a small town there are all the conveniences necessary. A grocery store that carries a little of everything, restaurants for every foodie, charter fishing, a ferry to the Manitou Islands or for a sunset cruse.

Sleeping Bear National Lake shore's popular sites are 15 miles to the south, the Grand Traverse Lighthouse is 25 Miles to the north. And of course Wineries, distilleries, and breweries, can be found anywhere in between. For the gambler---a casino. The golfer---beautiful golf courses. Hikers---we have that covered too. Leelanau County is just outside your door of this wonderful home.

Perfect Leland house

This beautiful and spotless home is down the street a from the beach one way, and town in the other direction. It has everything needed for grilling out or cooking in. Enough space for our teens to spread out in their own rooms, and the table tennis in the basement was a fantastic bonus. Will stay there again!

Great stay!

We have stayed at this property in the past and truly enjoyed our stay both times. The location near Lake Michigan is great. The house is just the right size for our family of 5 and everything needed for our stay is available in the home. We hope to stay here again in the near future!

Gorgeous location

The location and layout of this house was absolutely perfect for our group, which included 8 and 10 year old children, my husband and me, and my parents. We loved being so close to the beach, and the house was incredibly clean with many small touches that made for a very comfortable stay.

Family Vacation in Leland

We love staying at the Elliott house. Great location in relation to town and Lake Michigan. We’ll equipped home with plenty of space and clean! Our favorites in the area… Dune Bird Winery, Riverside for a nice dinner, Mad Cap for coffee and Farm Club for the best farm to table meal!

Leland family get together

This was our fourth year staying in the Elliott House. This house is a fantastic rental property. It is very well stocked, has comfortable beds, many towels, and beach towels. The new gas grill this year was a welcome addition. We love the location and had a great time using the kayaks.

We loved staying in this beautiful home. Normally we rent on the water so being in town was new and very enjoyable. The house was even better than the pictures and the description. I messaged the owner twice and he got right back to me. Really nice.

Fit our family well. Walkability to beach and town was fabulous. Kids were able to ride their bikes too. Short drives to Neddows Beach, Hancock Field, and the school playground. The property manager was prompt in her responses to us. We hope to return next year.

Better than hoped for

Our entire family enjoyed our stay at the Elliott house. Although the pictures are great, the house is even better in person. So roomy, yet cozy & warm at the same time. We loved the screened in porch for breakfast, card games, drinks in the afternoon & evening. This house is a short walk to anything you may be looking for. Any questions we had for the care taker were quickly answered. This house is thoughtfully & efficiently arranged. Highly recommend. A bit disappointed that the outdoor shower was not working but the master bath made up for it.

Fantastic Leland Home

Loved the property! We were pleasantly surprised to find the online listing was wrong, and there were 3 1/2 baths (as opposed to only 1 1/2). The beds were very hard, and could've used a nice pillow-top mattress pad. Our party was concerned about the possibility of the wooden stairs being slippery. We also would've liked some personalized information about the area, such as a wine trail map, details about Sleeping Bear Dunes, or where we could find the closest market for any food or beverage needs. Otherwise, the home was clean, and in the perfect location. This is a must-stay the next time we visit the area.

Fantastic Newer House, Well-Situated for all Leland Activities

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Elliot House. The property is conveniently located just 2 blocks from South Beach and about 5 blocks from downtown Leland in a cozy, quiet neighborhood perfect for families. We had 4 adults and 2 children, and the house worked out perfect for our group with an extra bedroom to spare. The house is relatively new (if not brand new), and was carefully thought out to maximize the space efficiently for families. With both a screened-in porch on the front and a deck on the back, there was ample room for entertaining, grilling or just hanging out with the kids. It also has living spaces with tv's on both floors to allow for a kids area and an adult area. The master bedroom has a walk-in closet with plenty of room that leads to a well-finished bathroom. A small garage on the side has room for your bikes and beach gear (and they also have pretty much everything you need for a day at the beach too), allowing for easy access and storage. There is a wet bar towards the back of the house that allows you to make drinks and entertain without interrupting activity in the kitchen. The caretakers were very attentive and always available for any questions we had. Simply put, we highly recommend this house for anyone looking to travel to Leland!

The house is very clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. It is in a quiet neighborhood in Leland. It is a very short walk to the Lake Michigan beach and a short walk to the shops and sights of Leland. This is our second time there, and we hope to stay there again in the future.

We love The Elliott House!

This was our second time staying at the Elliott House in November with our family of four. First off, November is a great time to visit. With the beautiful foliage and slower pace in the off-season, it was a wonderful break from busy life. The proximity to town and easy walk to the beach (with a perfect view at the end of the street!) make this place hard to beat. Our kids enjoyed riding bikes to town and browsing the shops. Covid and the season made the hours limited but still enough to keep us entertained. The house itself is very spacious (a much larger family or two families would be very comfortable in the space), clean and fully equipped with everything you would need. The beds and bedding very comfortable and the extra games and ping pong in the basement added to our family fun. The only minor suggestion would be for some additional furnishings like an ottoman in the family room as the wicker furniture is not super comfortable. That being said we definitely recommend The Elliott House!! Our favorite is the screened porch in the morning sun…despite the chilly temp we could still enjoy our coffee and a book in the morning. It is idyllic and we can’t wait to come back!
