About the host
Hosted by Cheryl Bayly
I love to travel, but I also love to stay close to home. Michigan's Leelanau Peninsula affords me the best of both worlds. It's close enough to our home base in Ohio to allow a weekend trip, but far enough away in distance and spirit to seem a different world.
We love traveling: in recent years we've especially enjoyed the warm hospitality we've enjoyed in several trips to Turkey and Jordan. The Leelanau Peninsula is vastly different from the middle East (though perhaps a bit like some areas in northeast Turkey) in geography and weather, but it shares the warm communal feeling--and the beauty of the surroundings is, though different, just as powerful.
So we enjoy visiting this cottage. We love sharing it with our children and grandchildren who have come to love going there. And we hope you come to enjoy the cottage and its surroundings as much as we and our family have.
Why they chose this property
We have visited the southern part of Leelanau Peninsula for over 20 years now--and grown to enjoy it more each time we visit. Over those years we've come to realize that southern Leelanau County is a different world from the northern half of the peninsula, so when we go the opportunity to purchase this cottage we jumped. We love the beaches in the north part of the county. Downtown Northport has become a great place to visit over the last twenty years: alive, full of activity, fun. And this is a wonderful cottage: everything we need in a cottage that though built over 100 years ago seems fully modern.
What makes this property unique
The history of the cottages on this corner stretches back to the early 1900s when an enterprising man collected and moved cottages purchased from across the Leelanau Peninsula to this corner where he used them as core homes of a little resort. That resort ran for nearly seventy years before ending. With the end of the resort, the cottages were solid to individual owners. The land is owned communally with the cottages occupying the same portions of the land they did 100 years ago.
Northwood Cottage was entirely modernized in the early 2000s. More recently it was remodeled again and redecorated.
