Your water activity dreams will come true with nearby rentals of paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, boats, other water equipment, and bicycles.

Grill provides the perfect outdoor opportunity for meals on the multiple decks, equipped with 2 picnic tables, Adirondack chairs, and 4 reclining spa loungers. Relax with a good book near the large stone wood-burning fireplace, curl up on the comfortable furniture while hosting movie marathons or sports games on the large screen TV.

Our stay was very nice. This home was in very nice condition and very clean. It worked very well for our Lake Leelanau vacation.A few suggestions:1. For wall switches of an unusual nature, such as the kitchen disposal, outside lights, where they are not obvious such as can't see the results, if a diagram or information was provided.2. Instructions for better using the television. We could never get the provided controller for Spectrum to work.3. There was a 'critter', probably a mouse, in the pantry.

Interior was clean, comfortable and as described on VRBO. We were greatly disappointed in the overall exterior condition of property. Upon arrival, there were opened packs of shingles on stone wall, knee high weeds in most areas of livable exterior space and warped, lose deck boards that created hazards. In photos on site, the hot tub is shown on an outside deck area, when in reality it is located approximately 20 feet away from home in heavily wooded/weedy area without adequate or no exterior lighting. Our group was unable to enjoy hot tub due to unstable step and lack of lighting. Management was prompt in bringing us missing clothes hangers which we appreciated.If the exterior was given some "gentle" weed and exterior maintenance, we would have given this a 4/5 star review. The location of property is perfect - management response was amazing.

The grounds were mot kept up. The view of lake MI from the msin floor is very limited by trees. Much better view from second floor decks. The home is beautiful on inside but dated. Dryer was not working well.

Great location

This is a quality built log cabin with lots of space and a wonderful country feel. Kitchen equipment and utensils are complete and generous. The views of the lake are stunning, but note, because of the shabby conditions of the landscaping, we were looking through the bushes and trees. The views presented at the website was not legit. That view is from the upper bedroom not the main deck.

Perfect for family reunion

This was perfect for us. We had 9 people and there was plenty of room. The view was spectacular and the location was great. 10 minutes from Leland and roughly 20 to Glen Arbor. One thing to note is that there are a LOT of stairs in this home. Good to know if you have guests that may struggle with that.
