Looking for a great spot just for 2 - or just for you! - on North Lake Leelanau and close to Leland? The "Little Dipper", an upstairs apartment overlooking the lake from Whaleback hill with 200' of lakeshore right out front, may just be the ticket! This spacious 1000 square foot getaway includes everything you need for a perfect opportunity to be together. The master bedroom is a getaway in itself with its deliciously comfy king-sized bed, peaceful woodsy views on two sides and cozy sitting area for reading or quiet conversation. The bathroom is big and has a marble walk-in shower. The spacious living area boasts gorgeous views of the lake from a set of large windows and glass double front door.
Walk out onto your private balcony with your morning coffee or stroll down the hillside stairs and across scenic North Manitou Trail to the lakefront decks. Included with your rental is a place to dock your boat and park your trailer out of sight on the property. Lake Leelanau is perfect for water sports. And with seventeen miles of water, it is not a crowded lake. Leland, Historic Fishtown and Lake Michigan beaches are just a 1/2 mile jog, walk, bike or boat ride away! Whether you are up to relaxing or sporting, cooking or dining out, shopping for nothing or everything!, staring at the water or blazing a trail, you have everything you need!
Just for "Little Dipper" guests we provide bicycles, beach towels, tote bag, cooler pack, swim noodles, and a few other things we think will make your vacation a fun one! Kayaks with life jackets, paddles & seats are kept at waterside for "Little Dipper" and "High Waters" guests. And the view at the firepit is spectacular whether at sunset with a cold drink or under the starry night with "melty good" s'mores!
The "Little Dipper" has been newly renovated and furnished - light, airy, comfortable. We are seasoned hosts who enjoy seeing to it that you have a lovely stay. Come on up! Lisa & Alan Harold, Harold's Havens
