Right on the Lake!
The location to everything in this beautiful area is excellent. Being right on the lake without stairs, a steep hill to climb or difficulty getting to the house was simply perfection! The house is comfortable for 6 people. A nice eat-in kitchen, convenient washer/dryer and plenty of windows that make the cottage bright and light! Beth was very responsive and helpful if anything came up. We had a lovely time for 2 full weeks!!

Fun time at Sandy Beach Cottage
Upon arriving the cottage was very clean and has a beautiful view. Location is great. Half hour from Traverse City. Beach area is nice for kids. Water is shallow and clear. Only things I would recommend is a dishwasher and umbrella for the deck.

Cozy Cottage Great Location
The cottage was tidy, spotless, and has a wonder view of the lake from the back patio. This location does offer centralized location between Traverse / Suttons Bay and Empire / Glen Arbor / Sleeping Bear. Enjoyed many of the trails in Sleeping Bear, restaurants and other local attractions within (30) minute drive. The cottage was lacking A/C first couple of days, due to the compressor not being turned on the second day was uncomfortably hot. Bathtubs are tight. Unfortunately, our stay coincided with the Fish Fly / May Fly / Drake season. They were so bad we had to leave a couple days early.

Very relaxing
The home was very well equipped, everything we needed. The property was wonderful. Te view of south Lake Leelanau was amazing. We saw a lot of wildlife including turtles, loons, eagles flying over and heard coyote at night. The night sky was very clear to look at stars and satellites. Really enjoyed the fire pit at night. Will definitely recommend this property to family and friends. BTW, our sister, brother-in-law and family stayed next door many years ago. Brought back fond memories.

Unbeatable sandy beach
We loved our stay for the exceptional lakefront - shallow, calm, sandy-bottom lakefront with a small beach perfect for kids. Having kayaks and a pedal boat included was a highlight! The location is central to so many of our favorite things in Leelanau - Leland, Sutton’s Bay, Sleeping Bear Dunes and more. The house was just the right size for our family of four, and the welcome snack and coffee were a lovely touch!

Sweet Spot!
We loved this little house on Lake Leelanau - just perfect for our family of 6 - grandparents, parents, and 2 little grandchildren. The water is shallow for a couple hundred feet. It was like a backyard water park. We rented a boat for the week which was ideal for enjoying the water. There were also kayaks, a rowboat, and paddle boat for our use. The fire pit was nice in the evenings to enjoy the beautiful sunsets and smores! The property managers and owner are lovely.

Location, location, location!
This property has an incredible backyard and lakefront area. The variety of watercraft provided created lots of options for fun on the lake, too. The house itself is clean, well appointed, and comfortable. It is close to “downtown” Leelanau (gotta try Nittolo’s pizza!), Sutton’s Bay (for shopping), and several Lake Michigan beaches, so everything our group wanted to do was easily accessible. It’s off the main roads so it was quiet at night, too. We had a wonderful week!

A special place.
From start to finish the whole process was easy. Great communication from our hosts. A wonderful spot on the lake, peaceful but not secluded. The house was clean throughout, with all the bits and bobs you need. A real home away from home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Tip: try the curry from the local shop…… amazing curry. Best we have had since living in America.

Great property and excellent location
My group was visiting the Traverse City area this October for fall colors and wine tasting and reserved this home for the weekend. Location is excellent, you are in proximity of several wineries on the Leelanau side and TC is a short drive a way. The house is also right on the lakefront of lake Leelanau with a large yard and fire pit so, plenty to do back at the house as well - great place for kids in the summer. Hosts are great and super responsive.

Charming Cottage
This sweet little place is a gem. The backyard is phenomenal, stocked with kayaks, peddle boat, and rowboat. The cottage is super clean and decorated with charm. We had a great time playing with the numerous board games and cards. The hosts were gracious and promptly accomodating. We will be back :)
