Exceptional property with functional and high end finishes. Well Manicured Forest canopy provides unequivocally view of good harbor bay. Owner incredibly friendly, accommodating and professional. We’ve been renting in Glen Arbor area for 5th year in a row and will be considering renting here next summer.

Cozy cabin in the woods

My family and I spent four nights here. The property is well maintained and looked just like the photos. It's a great location if you plan on exploring the Leelenau peninsula and the surrounding national lakeshores. The hot tub was pristine and definitely had the best views I've had from a hot tub. There was also plenty of firewood supplied for the Solo stove. Overall I would definitely stay here again.

A beautiful house and location. As other reviews state- the online pictures of the view are not even close to how beautiful it is in person. The log cabin feel is what you want in the woods but this one is without the log cabin creepiness- it has high end fixings and appliances, well equipped kitchen, comfortable furniture, wonderful and well maintained hot tub. We had three generations staying here and it worked very well. I’ve stayed at a lot of Vrbo’s over the years and I have to say this one had by far the best host communication. I received all house information a week in advance- it was absolutely thorough and helpful. And the host was very prompt with communication and messaged after check in to make sure all was well. The cabin is a quick drive to the beach (dog friendly!) or wonderful restaurants and shops in many towns especially Fishtown and Glen Arbor. So many trails nearby to enjoy- all with parking areas making it easy to enjoy. Our stay was late summer but being in the middle of the woods would give a different experience with each season. Would love to experience all the seasons here.

This is a beautiful property. I was so pleasantly surprised by the view overlooking Lake Michigan (the view is better than shown in the listing). The house is very clean and well appointed. Property manager was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Hoping to return annually.

Great stay in this beautiful log cabin. Wonderful view of the water and within a few miles of Leland and Glen Arbor. Loved the quietness in the middle of the woods. Like new appliances and everything you would need in the kitchen. Spacious deck to hang out and a hot tub to enjoy.

Fabulous Summer Getaway

Our group of 7 (3 grandparents, 2 kids and 2 adults) had a fabulous week at this property! The view and location can’t be beat. Beautiful vista of Whaleback and just minutes from Good Harbor beach. The house is comfortably furnished for family dinner and movie night. Kitchen is well stocked with all the necessary equipment. Host provided great advance communication and was available to answer any minor questions that popped up along the way. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again!

We just finished an amazing weekend here! The view alone was worth every penny. The cabin was clean, well furnished and had everything we needed. We specifically enjoyed family movie night in the basement! The location was also fantastic. Only 5 minutes from Good Harbor Bay beach (which was amazing) and 10 minutes from Fishtown. Host was also a pleasure to work with and incredibly helpful. Will definitely stay here again. Thanks!!

Beautiful home with an amazview view of Lake Michigan!

Our stay at Overby Woods was nothing short of amazing. The house is beautiful, the view is incredible and Darren was wonderful to work with. We had a couple of questions while we were there and he took care of them right away. The house is spacious, the kitchen is full of ammenties, and the grocery delivery service was perfect so that our fridge was stocked before we even arrived. We spent a majority of our time in Glen Arbor and it was a pretty 20 minute drive. We would definitely return!

The best!

We came to Overby Woods for our annual family vacation and to escape the city. Our stay at Overby Woods did not disappoint. The cabin is as good or even better than the photos. The view off the back deck is beautiful. The cabin had everything you could possibly need whether you are cooking, bringing home food or eating out at the many restaurants in the area. The location of the cabin is so convenient to several cute towns, the beach, many hiking and biking trails. Darren the owner was super communicative and the guide he sent ahead of our coming was super helpful and a great resource. We will definitely be back. We could not have had a better place to stay for our family vacation.

Beautiful Cabin and Wonderful Hosts

This property is perfectly tucked away and private, yet full of amenities and luxuries. We had three generations of family and everyone was comfortable and entertained. You cannot beat the views of Lake Michigan, fresh air, and stargazing. We weren't aware that Leland had so much to do and the hosts were SO helpful in pointing us in the right direction. Plenty of bars, restaurants, recreation (including indoor curling!), and shopping. My new favorite little beach town and we have already reserved a week for the fall.

Updated cabin with a view!

Our family of 4 plus our dog had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin. The host, Darren was helpful and responded quickly with questions we had prior to our trip. The cabin has been beautifully updated and you can tell so much thought had been put into every detail making it a relaxing and comfortable getaway. We enjoyed the comfy beds, the ease of the cozy gas fireplace, the well stocked kitchen, the huge tv downstairs and the hot tub. But nothing could beat that view. Lake Michigan is visible from just about every room in the house and breathtaking from the porch. We hope to come back!
