Michigan Magic

This amazing property puts us near other Leelanau treats, as well as keeping us happy if we don't leave the premises all day long.

There's a reason we keep coming back

My family has visited this house multiple times. It's just far enough out of town that you have wonderful seclusion and privacy, but only about 5 minutes to the closest grocery store. The sunsets are SPECTACULAR. The house has everything you could want or need. The only small drawback is that there isn't cell service out there, but they do have internet and you can connect to the wifi to make calls. This is one of my favorite homes in which we have stayed on VRBO, hands down. The hosts are GREAT and very responsive. Looking forward to our annual return already!

It stands up for its name

One of, if not the best retreats we have stayed in. Breathtaking, peaceful and has a vintage feel.

Wonderful Stay In Northport area

This place was AMAZING. The sunsets were breathtaking. The hosts were super great people who went out of their way to help us with any little need. The house has ANYTHING you need, and it is very well laid out. The knives were sharp, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and anything you'd need to make a nice meal. But the key to this place is the views. Truly, a wonderful place. We look forward to returning next year!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Middleton

I revel in nature and love for people who share their passion for it. I enjoy bringing the two together in ways that celebrate adventure, health, peace, and renewal. I am fortunate to have these two properties that provide a get away from ordinary life to renew body and soul, explore and appreciate the beauty of our two peninsulas and two great lakes – Michigan and Superior. Both houses offer a peaceful retreat like experience yet are in close proximity to vibrant fun communities, the best outdoor recreation in the upper great lakes, and a feeling of small scale sustainability from adjacent orchards and gardens. The houses are clean and inviting. Campfire locations with either sunset over Lake Michigan or the idyllic creak and pond at Two Waters await.
