Our stay was pleasant. The location was nice, Close to downtown. The house was tidy but not clean. The upstairs was hot and did not cool like the rest of the house.

We've been staying in Leland every year for the past 40 years. As our family has grown, we've found ourselves having to find larger accommodations and Read Between the Lakes was PERFECT for our family of 8 (3 couples and 2 teenage kids). There was lots of space for everyone to spread out and plenty of comfy furniture on which to relax. We were pleasantly surprised to find a nice selection of games in the house to keep us busy on a rainy day and our boys LOVED the foosball table. The kitchen was spotless and had a good mix of pots, pans, and serving dishes. The entire house was clean and had all of the expected amenities while on vacation. Would definitely stay again!

Reviewer Comments:
We needed a last minute spot which is challenging up north in the summer! This place worked well for our needs (adults and some very little kids). The website pictures were confusing though, so for future travelers... It is some stairs to the main floor with a kitchen and eating area, bathroom, living room, another little sitting area (futon couch in the pictures) right off of that which is open to everything else - so not ideal for using as a sleeping spot, and a master bed and bathroom. Upstairs - 2 bedrooms and bathroom, basement - living area and a bedroom with bathroom. The main floor could use much more lighting in the living room - it was dark even during the day. But otherwise it was a nice spot, everything was clean, kitchen adequately stocked etc. Walking into town was nice.

Went for the “Toast the Season” wine weekend in the Leelanau Peninsula. Perfectly situated in the Leelanau wine trail. The hot tub was great, the host asks for Duraflame logs in the wood burning fireplace so may want to bring some.

Thank you for letting us know, so pleased to hear that this house was a perfect fit for you!
Great location, everything on the interior seemed brand new, parking easy, central A/C was a nice benefit, kitchen very nice, bathrooms on all three levels was fantastic. Overall, a wonderful place.
This was a flawless rental. Our family had such a wonderful time. It was clean and close to town. The younger people of the group could walk to town and beach. The older of the group needed to drive. The hot tub was fun to have. We would revisit this rental without question.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was clean, well appointed and comfortable for an in-law vacation.
This is one of the best locations and homes in which we have stayed. The value is exemplary. With minor inconveniences such as a lock box that made entering inconvenient for disparate members of a group, the lack of baking dishes and other amenities in the kitchen and inadequate toilet paper, the home is ideal for a large group. We would highly recommend this rental. Come prepared.

This was a great rental! We couldn't have hoped for a better home to accommodate our family members. There was plenty of common space and yet the layout was such that we each had our own space, as well.

This is a lovely home in a great location. The house was clean and well ordered. The bathrooms are nice and the kitchen has everything you need. It is walking distance to town and to the beach. It is within close reach of many points of interest.

Thank you! We are so pleased to know that you enjoyed your time at this home.
Great location, spacious house. Clean and orderly. Quick walk to Fishtown and North Beach. Kitchen was missing bakeware, and large glasses. Bedrooms were clean, mattresses decent and as described. No mention of small stacking washer dryer unit which isn’t viable for a house that holds up to 12. Hard to keep hottub water clean because only a small bed of gravel surrounded the hottub, then mud.Overall, good stay but could use a little a few adjustments.

Thank you for reviewing this property. Glad to know that you found the home spacious, clean and in a great location. Kitchen items have been restocked.
Overall good stay, with some room for improvement. Teens complained that basement beds were extremely uncomfortable and we had some issues regulating the temperature downstairs. Given the location, we had to deal with ants/bugs, which property management company explains in paperwork. Kitchen equipment is poor. You’ll need to bring a decent knife/nonstick pan if you plan to cook. Suggest a storage cabinet for guests to store pantry items vs sofa in the kitchen. Suggest cleaning outdoor patio furniture before guests’ arrival, as it was covered in bird droppings and hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. Suggest a different solution for removing trash from previous guests. Bins outside were already overflowing when we arrived. Dryer does not dry clothes- ran a small through 3-4 cycles and still wet. Location is extremely close/convenient to Fishtown, walked to see town fireworks and shopping in the area. Note: road is very busy and dangerous so take extra care. Overall good stay in a lovely area.
