Overby Woods was the perfect place for a true up-north get away. We have always loved the Leelanau peninsula and this was the best spot to explore of all of it! The host Darren is very accommodating. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Property and Experience!

What a wonderful property! Incredible views, great amenities and a fabulous home. The location is also fantastic. The property is totally private and feels secluded, yet attractions and towns are only minutes away. We had the best of both worlds!

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.

Great cabin in the woods overlooking Lake Michigan - Perfection

The cabin was awesome. Kitchen had everything one might need and then some. Especially appreciated the little extra things like kitchen towels, garbage bags etc. And the views - just stunning. Thank you Darren for a wonderful and peaceful home away from home.

Lovely Home

We throughly enjoyed our stay! The home was extremely clean and very cozy. We had a lovely vacation! Very secluded location and just so relaxing. The basement was our favorite hang out area! Plenty of room for everyone and our pups. The highlight of our trip was seeing the northern lights! Highly recommend this property!

Amazing property!!

The property was simply amazing! The views were perfect and the house itself was perfect! Great weekend for us and hopefully will be coming back next year with another couple! Darren was a great host and was helpful with restaurant suggestions and things to do. Reached out during our stay to see how it was going and checked in at the end. Great to deal with!!

Everything was amazing. Cleanliness, attentiveness of Darren and obviously the whole property. The swing in the woods was a huge hit for the kiddos. I grew up about 20 minutes away and our family has outgrown staying at my Mom's house. With that said, it still blows me away the beauty of the area and being out on that deck, in the hot tub and even within the house with those views was amazing.

Perfect weekend

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.

Leland cabin in the woods

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.

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.

Fantastic Property!

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!!

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!
