About the host

Hosted by Mark, Owner

Host profile image
Family man who worked in property management this entire youth as the family business. We always dreamed of owning a Log Cabin up North in Michigan. We have been renting Vrbo’s for over 15 years and we finally decided to take what we’ve learned and offer a much better, cleaner, unique vacation property for families to make memories for years to come.

Why they chose this property

This property is very unique, it’s a private estate. A beautiful cabin in the forest that is across the street from Lake Leelanau. Access to the Lake is directly across the street with a new boat dock. It has a basketball court in the backyard. 5 bedroom fireplace suites. 6 fireplaces and rustic log furniture throughout the cabin. Can fit large families, multiple families/multiple generations of family. Make this cabin your preferred place for family reunions. We’re updating weekly and adding amenities. We will be building a beautiful fire pit area, and outdoor seating areas with a Pavilion. Multiple grills will be setup. A natural gas Weber Summit 6-burner Grill. And a large charcoal grill.
