About the host

Hosted by JLM Rentals - Leslie

Host profile image
We are Jeff and Leslie, retired professionals who love to travel and enjoy life. We’re fortunate to own and manage four vacation homes in some of our favorite places—Galveston, Texas; Petoskey, Michigan; Ventura, California; and New York City’s Upper West Side.

We spend time between our homes throughout the year depending on the season and rental schedules. In the spring and fall, we usually set out on longer travels, often exploring internationally and enjoying extended cruises.

When we are away, our daughter Sasha and our daughter-in-law Melissa help with guest messages so you’ll always have someone available if you need anything. We also have a local property manager/contact for each home if on-site assistance is ever needed during your stay.

We truly enjoy sharing our homes with guests and hope you feel comfortable and at home .

Why they chose this property

During the summer of 2008 on a road trip to an annual conference in Lexington, KY we drove through this unknown to us, placed called Petoskey. The 26 mile bike trail on the lake looked very inviting but we didn't have the time to stop and enjoy it. The next summer on out way to the conference we blocked out a day to rent a bike and check-out the trail. At the start of the ride we noticed a 'for sale' sign on a house on the lake. That night we scheduled an appointment to walk through the house before we headed South. We went on to the conference and as soon as it was over we drove back up and sign the paperwork. Once the title was transferred we began the process of taking the downstairs down to the studs and reconfiguration the layout to take advantage of the view.

So Instead of buying a mug we bought a house. We were living in California at the time and all of our family and friends thought we were crazy to be buying a house that needed a complete renovation in Northern Michigan. That was before they came for a visit - they now all understand . . .

What makes this property unique
