Vacation June 2024
My family of 3, my parents and our small dog had a great time at this property and the area. We visited Traverse City, Suttons Bay, Charlevoix, and Glen Arbor. The home is beautiful and Lake Leelanau is steps away out the back patio. The owner, Patrick, was easy to get ahold of for any questions we had. The home had everything you need: kitchen was equipped with plenty of pots, pans, dishes, even foil, plastic wrap, etc. There were even blow dryers provided in both bathrooms. Just a couple things we had problems with. Coffee pot did not work correctly. I had spoke with owner and he had expected a new one was to be delivered before we had arrived. I ended up buying one from Walmart for us to use. Got to have our coffee! The bathroom upstairs has a bathtub/shower, but be aware this is a bathtub with VERY high sides and not very accessible for everyone. Most of us were afraid to try and use it, but the walk in shower in the main level bathroom was much better! We love this area to vacation and will be back! Thank you Patrick for a very relaxing time at your beautiful home at Lake Leelanau!

Lake Life
Great lake location about 15 minutes from Traverse City. Easy drive to wineries, cideries, Sleeping Bear Dunes and many other sites. The lake is exceptionally clean and beautiful. The back of the houses faces West so we had amazing sunsets. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything needed to cook and store food. Sheets and towels were nice and plentiful. The house has AC unlike many other local rentals. The house is exactly as photographed. Ask the property owner for directions as GPS is not quite accurate.

Rent this property! You will not be disappointed!
The property is in excellent condition. This log cabin has many amenities. The owner has thought of every need and want, and stocked the home in a fashion that you could find whatever you need: use it to your pleasure. Upon entry you will find a state of the art washer and dryer with all of the necessary cleaning products. The kitchen is beyond expectation. If you wanted to cook anything, you could find the item needed Each room continues in the same vein. Head outside, comfortable chairs around a fire pit. The beauty of the water and the dock area is shallow enough for children to splash and play. I could go on and on, so you must try it for yourself.

Love this home. We've stayed there previously. The house is immaculate and always updated. The area is close to TC so area jaunts are a snap. The owner, Patrick, is always gracious and helpful. Thanks, guys, for another great vacation!

Lovely Home
Had a wonderful time. Would have preferred to have access to water other than via dock with ladder. A sea wall prohibited this. Also, waterfront has no shade whatsoever; no trees, no overhang, pergola, etc. Umbrella on deck created no relief from sun. Home was well equipped and as others stated, online pictures do not do justice.

Wonderful!
The house was wonderful! Unfortunately the may flies had hatched and the fishing was not great but the lake is gorgeous! My only suggestion for the house is to upgrade the mattresses, they were not comfortable and also the skillets need replaced but all other cookware and kitchen utensils was great. We enjoyed the games, sitting on the deck and sitting around the fire ring and exploring Sutton’s Bay and sleeping bear dunes. Overall it was awesome and I would highly recommend the place.

Perfect getaway!
The perfect winter getaway! The pictures and description do not do this cabin justice . Beautiful, cozy and so clean!!! Fully stocked kitchen. Close to Sutton’s bay , while also within 20 mins of downtown TC. The perfect location! We fit our group of 10 comfortably. The owner was very responsive and very kind. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your slice of paradise! Would love to return to Marjies place for a summer getaway.

Everything in the house was clean, stocked and as promised. Pat the owner was not too responsive when I asked if he offered a military or health care provider discount. I asked him 4 times but never received a response.

Our entire family including 7 adults, two young children and dogs thoroughly enjoyed this home. There was plenty of shared space as well as large bedrooms to accommodate our needs. The home was better than the pictures show. Lake Leelenau is a beautiful lake to vacation near. We would definitely return!!

Classic log home on the shore of breathtaking Lake Leelanau
This was a perfect two-week rental experience! This beautiful, clinically clean, thoughtfully outfitted log home sits along Lake Leelanau’s eastern shoreline. This lake, 22-miles long, sparkles like cut diamonds in the sunlight, while reflecting blood red clouds at day’s end. Hauntingly beautiful... All the charm of Traverse City’s shops and dining are less than 20-minutes away. Then 20-minutes in the other direction and you’re visiting the picturesque village of Sutton’s Bay or ancient Fish Town (aka Leland). Both perfect day trips. Pat -the home’s owner- proved prompt, friendly and impressively helpful on the few occasions I sought out his advice. Taken together, Pat’s log home rental afforded us the perfect setting for our autumn wedding anniversary.
