Hideout Cottage Discounts weeks of August 15 and 27
Lake Leelanau
Late August cancels result in big discounts, and 3 night stays. Applies weeks of August 15 and 27. Our classic knotty pine cottage is waterfront on Lake Leelanau. It's at the end of the lane tucked between the cedar forest and clear stream. No through traffic, no shared front yard; a place where you truly feel on vacation. Perfect for your sunrise cup of coffee, or sunset glass of local wine you are sure to unwind in this beautiful waterfront location.
The cottage is comfortably furnished with an Up North flair featuring log furniture and numerous Up-North touches. The open floor plan, living room- kitchen is perfect for conversation, family meals and games.
There are three bedrooms, two full baths, and a popular outdoor shower, plus a large family room giving you lots of space to spread out. The 1st bedroom and second bedrooms have queen beds, the 3rd bedrooms has a bunk with twin over double bed. Kids love the hand carved turtles and raccoons on their beds. The den has a futon couch/bed, TV, DVD player, bar and game table. The family room makes a nice mini-suite, or a great place for the kids to hang-out.
From the front deck we've seen turtles, otter, deer, grouse, and eagles. The shallow lake entry area is perfect for play. "Dark Skies" make this a fabulous place to watch for meteor showers and Northern Lights (we've seen both many times) The dock has room for your boat or make it your private fishing pier. Our area of the lake is popular with the fisherman who know the good spots.. Two kayaks and a canoe are included for a quiet morning paddle. Serve meals on the old-style pine picnic table and choose between charcoal grill or gas flat top, making outdoor cooking a pleasure. Retire to the oversize hammock to read a book or take a nap. When it's time to clean up head for the outdoor shower with dressing area. The perfect end to an upnorth day is around the campfire where stories are told and marshmallow S'mores are the traditional treat.
Location, Waterfront on your own secluded lane, just five minutes drive south of Lake Leelanau. Easily day trip to Leland, Northport, Suttons Bay, Empire or Glen Arbor for unique shopping and restaurants.

About the host
Hosted by Diana and Lou Aug
Michiganders forever, currently living in the Chicago area we really appreciate the slower pace and peace and quiet.
Why they chose this property
Five generations of our family have been vacationing in Leelanau County. As children moved away for careers it always provides a place to "'disconnect" and "reconnect" . We reinvent games we played and telling stories.
What makes this property unique
Walking out on the dock, coffee in hand, to watch the sun come up is a superb way to start the day. In the city we forget how brilliant the night stars can be and the excitement of seeing a meteor shower, or if lucky, the Northern Lights. The pace of life changes for our whole family. We have time to enjoy each other and the simple things.
