Beautiful, spacious, and perfect for our weekend with friends. Especially appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. The kitchen was amply stocked, the common area was beautifully decorated, and the view of the river was spectacular.
My family & I had the most incredible time at River House. What an outstanding home from comfort to location. Stanley & Bo were also wonderful hosts.
River House, thank you for the memories!
We will be back!
We stayed at the River House in Aug. Incredible house in an amazing location- the river views are stunning! We have been vacationing in the Leland area for 20 years and this property is like no other. The house fit all 8 of us comfortably and the pier worked perfect for our boat. Stanley the owner was a pleasure to work with, made sure everything was perfect for our stay. We highly recommend this property. We can’t wait to get back up there!!
Our stay at River House was absolutely wonderful. The house was so well appointed with views of the river and Lake Leelanau. The water lilies on the river and the gardens were soothing to the soul! We truly appreciated that each bedroom and an en-suite, making it equitable for all who shared the cost of this spectacular home. Stanley, the owner was very welcoming and easy to talk to. I would definitely stay at River House again when we travel to Leland in the future.
What a beautiful spot….our group of long-time friends has travelled a lot, and were thrilled with the property, the view, the furnishings, and the 4 en-suite bedrooms. Outdoors has large covered seating area, gas grill, and fireplace….
The kitchen has high-end appliances; laundry room and pantry were extra bonus rooms. In summer and early fall, you can see classic wooden boats traverse the “narrows”In the back of the house…
Worth the investment for a great get-away!
We rented this gorgeous home for our daughters wedding in Suttons Bay. It was a quick 15 min drive to the venue, Ciccone Vinyard as well as 15-20 drive to Northport. It is truly the most beautiful home we have ever rented. Everything was perfect and the huge kitchen was the perfect spot for all of us to gather every day. We can’t say enough about this home. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
We are a mature group of 6. For over 30 years, we have traveled to the Leland area in the Fall. This home is by far the most beautiful home that we have stayed at, it was simply perfect for us. From the three 1st floor en suite bedrooms with the large 2nd floor bedroom with bathroom and kitchenette to the well appointed chefs kitchen accommodated our group perfectly. We were fortunate to have wonderful weather and spent a great deal our time on the back covered patio overlooking the lovely landscaping and river views. Bo and Stanley were delightful to work with and it is clear attention was spent on every detail. We plan on returning next year.
