Beautiful Property

This home exceeded our expectations! So well appointed, we didn't need to bring a thing. Well stocked kitchen, with large fridge and dishwasher. Many bath towels, beach towels, paper products, shampoo, lotions, laundry & dish detergent, firewood, extra propane for the grill, this owner has thought of everything! Lots of toys, games and books for all ages. Beds were comfortable, neighborhood was quiet, beautiful lake setting. There are no sidewalks, however, and the speed limit in front of the house is 55 mph. There is a wide shoulder to walk on, and after a short distance, the speed limit drops to 25 mph. Ample parking in driveway - we never used the garage, simply parked all three vehicles abreast in the driveway. Any questions or concerns were quickly answered by the owner. Looking forward to renting this property again in the future.

Wonderful lake home with great amenities!

Wow! This property was very clean and had every thing you needed to enjoy a week on the lake. We had a mix of adults and teens and everyone had a great time. We used the kayaks and SUP that were available and the kids enjoyed the hot tub. We walked into town and had dinner a few nights which was a great option. Overall one of the best places we had stayed on the lake!

Perfect Getaway

The property was everything we could have imagined...and more! We had three generations of family together and everyone had a fantastic time. The house and property were immaculate, and they were equipped with all of the "toys" that we needed. We look forward to returning enjoying the property all over again.

Beautiful lake house perfect for families

My family stayed here for a long weekend getaway and it was perfect for us! The house is well appointed with everything you might need, including the bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen. We cooked almost every night and always found what we needed. All of the bathrooms had extra toiletries and plenty of extra towels. We loved how easy the hot tub was to open and close, since the kids wanted to use it daily! When we weren’t out exploring, the wifi in the house worked great. All of the beds were very comfortable and we had everything we might need including additional blankets and pillows. The location of this house is perfect if you plan to explore the area as well, short drives to Leland, Suttons Bay, Traverse City, and the dunes! We can’t wait to stay here again!

Great Lake House

This home has everything you may need to enjoy a vacation at the lake. The house was very well appointed and stocked more items (coffee, pantry items, spices, paper/plastic goods, linens, throws, etc.) than any of our previous rentals. There were numerous outdoor seating areas that were great and the water toys/equipment were well organized and maintained in the shed at the lake. The firepit had ample seating and the host provided wood & kindling to make it easy & inviting to use.

Does not disappoint. Great Lake Stay!

Great house- just as advertised. Home was immaculate. There were plenty of towels, beach towels, linens etc. It was my husband, teenage son and my 2 grown daughters and their families. The house was a perfect set up. We enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks, games and fire pits. Such a great place that we have already shared the listing with a friend.

Great Stay for Active Adult Group

4 cousin couples all in our 30s stayed for a family wedding. The property was fantastic for us to spend time together and reconnect with endless amounts of social spaces and more amenities than we even had time to use. The location was also perfect for our daily runs for marathon training and cycling to North Port and back! Perfect walking distance into town for every thing we needed. Note - the remote lawn mower is real! We stayed up one night to see it in action!

Fabulous Lake House

This beautiful lake house on stunning Lake Leland. This house exceeded all our expectations. It was stocked with amenities that made it really feel homey. We enjoyed the campfire area which had plenty of room for all of us. Took a few kayak rides, played pool, spent mornings enjoying coffee on the deck which had plenty of seating. After a couple of days of sight seeing, we were always happy to come back and settle in to an evening at Mike and Barb’ wonderful place.

Perfect Northern Michigan Spot

This house had everything we needed - from the inside amenities like kitchen/cooking utensils and a plethora of towels to the outside activities like the firepit, kayaks and hot tub. The location is absolutely idyllic and the owners were very communicative and helpful with our questions in preparation of the trip. 100% would stay here again.

This is a SIX Star Property

If I could give this property an extra star rating I would. This place exceeded every expectation we had. The lake is quiet and picturesque. The fact that the fire pit is far removed from the house makes sitting by the fire so much more pleasant when you don't hear the kids fighting in the background. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is plenty of space within the home to spread out and find peace and quiet. The kids enjoyed using the kayaks and paddle boards. It was great to see them put down their devices in favor of outdoor activities. Additionally, when I had questions on how to operate certain features of the home, Mike was quick to take my call and answer every question I had. If you a looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, this quiet lake house is the ideal vacation home for you.

Great Location

This is a really excellent rental property in one of the most beautiful parts of Michigan. The location could not be better with so much to do in the surrounding area. The house itself sits right on lake leelanau and the boat house had paddle boards and kayaks to take out. We also really enjoyed the pool table, hot tub and fire pit at the house. After a long weekend I have nothing but positive things to say and will definitely think about renting this property again for future trips!

Prefect home

We stayed here because my son got married on Sutton's Bay. It was fully stocked with everything! More than enough room for all of us. 8 adults and one child. Wish we could have spent more time on the property but because of all the events surrounding the wedding we were very busy. Just waking up to the view of the lake made our day. Working with the owner was easy, needless to say we had to change our reservations from summer to fall.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Armstrong

Why they chose this property

We have been spending our vacations in northern Michigan for over twenty years and absolutely fell in love with the Leelanau peninsula. We wanted to spend more time in the area, so once we were retired we began looking for a home on a large inland lake for boating, while at the same time centrally located between Lake Michigan, Leland, Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear Dunes national park. There's just something about this area that makes you want to keep coming back and is hard to leave.
