This is a nice little cottage sitting right on Belinger pond. Close to everything on the peninsula. We had some lightbulbs out but the management company responded right away.

Lovely location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cute cabin with lots of charming character. The porch was my favorite spot to relax after having a busy day hiking or swimming. Well Stocked kitchen and it was nice to get to do a load of laundry mid-trip. Only negatives are that cabin has no AC so had to sleep with windows open. But the cabin on a super noisy road with lots of speeding 18 wheeler trucks that woke us up throughout the night.

Great cozy cottage vibes

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We attended a concert at Leelanau Sands and this cottage was an excellent alternative to staying at the lodge there. It’s a very short drive and could even be walked in the warmer months. We absolutely loved the sunroom and watching the birds on the pond. We also enjoyed shopping and dining in Suttons Bay which is just a few minutes away. The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. The only downside was the small driveway but we managed with a small suv and full size truck. I would definitely stay again!

While the home is located off a main road, you have to travel through some woods to get to the home which is located on several acres on the waterfront..

Serene little cottage

This was a lovely little stay. The cottage is charming and cozy. The pond out side is beautiful and serene. It is directly on a busy road as some reviews mention, but being this far out there's not much traffic at night.
