UNA GETAWAY WEEK-END AUTUNNO ------- BELLI COLORI AUTUNNO, TOUR DELLA CANTINA, GITE DEL GOLF.

ALLOGGIO CONVENIENTE PER FESTE DEL MATRIMONIO

PUOI DESIDERI LEGGERE LE NOSTRE MERAVIGLIOSE RECENSIONI! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Scopri la bellezza e le SPIAGGE del Lago Michigan e del Lago Nord Leelanau, i impegnativi CORSI GOLF e le meravigliose CANTINE nella CONTEA DI LEELANAU. Situato a soli 20 miglia dal Sleeping Bear National Park.

Goditi i fiori di PRIMAVERA a maggio e giugno e gli incredibili e meravigliosi colori AUTUNNO.

Siamo situati in 5-15 minuti da molte cantine eccezionali e campi da golf impegnativi. La contea di Leelanau sta rapidamente diventando la "Napa Valley" del Midwest!

THE WHEELER COTTAGE su Warden's Point fu costruito intorno agli inizi del 1900 (circa 1907) e copre quasi tre acri con 360 piedi di facciata principale del lago. La struttura dispone di cinque strutture (casa principale, casa barca, casa di trasporto, sala pompe e ghiacciaia).

Tutte le pareti e i soffitti del primo piano sono rivestiti in "ciliegio selvatico" e acero. Le pareti e il soffitto del secondo piano sono anch'essi pannelli di legno. Gran parte dell'arredamento è venuto con il cottage ed è costituito da acero di roccia dura. Sarebbe classificato come "catalogo" di mobili, ma ora oggetti da collezione.

Le pietre esterne sono chiamate "rocce di campo" che sono state raccolte dai campi e formate dai flussi del ghiacciaio milioni di anni fa. Il cottage si affaccia ad ovest e si affaccia sul bellissimo Whaleback. Molte notti mi siedo e ammiro la lavorazione, in particolare il camino. Posso letteralmente tornare agli inizi del 1900.

Tariffa notturna per camera da letto più bassa rispetto alla maggior parte delle tariffe locali per pernottamento locale più il vantaggio della nostra cucina ben attrezzata, bellissimo cottage, i nostri splendidi giardini fioriti, campo da badminton / pallavolo, banchine e 360 piedi di facciata sul lago.

Wonderful historic home and location. Everything we needed for cooking meals and spreading out with the 10 in our party, including two under 3. Years as nice having the master in the first floor and then 6 rooms upstairs my family could spread out/ enough bathrooms and lots of linens. Yard and view was the best. Would love to visit again.

The best family vacation at the Wheeler cottage on Lake Leelanau! I loved watching the kids run around on the lawn and taking advantage of the open space, our boat rides and quiet mornings on the lake and evenings around the bonfire. What a dream.

Most Beautiful Home on Lake Leelanau!!

My family and I have been vacationing on Lake Leelanau for 17 years and this is the most beautiful and well maintained home of any that we have stayed at. The home is very charming and the grounds are spectacular. It's been great to be able to stay in a home that is able to accomodate all 15 of us without feeling like we're on top of each other. Looking forward to more fabulous summers to come!!

The yard and fire pit area were fantastic. We had 8 adults and 6 grandchildren and we played kick ball, volleyball and a variety of yard games and really used the grounds a lot. Having the pontoon right our front was nice but there was not a beach for the kids to play and swim at the house. The lack of air conditioning was somewhat uncomfortable. We used the laundry the water has a lot of iron in it and stained some of the clothes. Overall we had a good stay with family...

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that your experience was less that perfect. The cottage has been in our family for 4 generations and we take extreme pride in it. Our goal is to make everything as pleasant as possible. It was built around 1905 as a summer cottage, and we have tried to maintain its original character. Typically, summer temperatures are very comfortable and breezy. AC has never been a major concern over the decades, however, periodically there may be spells of warm weather and we do have ceiling fans in ALL bedrooms which provide some relief. Unfortunately, your family experienced an unusually warm period. We do have a nice sandpile play area down by the boathouse waterfront where children can wade and splash around plus unrestricted swimming off the dock with access ladder. Unfortunately, the ground water quality in the area characteristically has a high iron concentration. We appreciate your perspective and will try to more clearly call it out on our website for future guests. Thank you The Wheelers

Beautiful setting for a multi family vacation

We stayed here for a family reunion with 14 adults and 3 children. We were pleased that there was room for all of us. The historic home is set on a very large lot with a great view of Lake Leelanau. We rented a pontoon boat from a local company for the week and was able to dock in in front which was convenient. Rink was responsive and helpful when we had questions. We had wonderful weather and ate all of our meals outside in the shade of the massive trees on the property. We hope to return for a future visit.

Thanks, rink!

We had four families at the property for memorial weekend 2013. The children were ages 2 to 9. Everyone had a ball! The location is beautiful with plenty of room for catch, capture the flag, baseball... S'mores every night. We all fit extremely comfortably. It was a great choice. We hope to come back!

Wedding venue extraordinaire!

My wife and I chose to have our wedding at the Wheeler cottage and what a great decision we made! This property and home are absolutely beautiful. The old-world craftsmanship, historic charm and unbeatable views were enjoyed by everyone that attended. I would not hesitate to recommend the Wheeler cottage to anyone looking for the perfect lake retreat or wedding venue on Lake Leelanau. Rink Wheeler is an exceptionally classy and helpful individual who made sure that we were totally comfortable and at ease before and during our stay. Thanks again for such a memorable weekend!

Wonderful lake cottage!

We had a great time staying at the Wheeler cottage. Three families, ages 6-50+ stayed in this wonderful home- loved all the spaces for hanging out and the craftsmanship is beautiful. The living room had enough seating for all 15 of us to watch a movie. The kitchen was extremely well stocked. The yard was huge. The large fire pit was the center of our family's nighttime dinners and after-dinner relaxation. The back porch was a great morning coffee spot and for puzzling on a rainy day. The bedrooms all had ceiling fans and additional fans were available, so we were very comfortable at night. The beds and linens were also very clean and comfortable. The whole cottage was very tidy and a great place to relax with family!

More like a mansion than a cottage...

We loved the wheeler “cottage”. It was super serene and on a great private point of lake Leelanau. It is a special home full of old beautiful wood and with lots of space. Our family was smaller than usual because the elders did not join during the pandemic, so it felt even more luxurious. There is a master suite on the main floor and 6 bedrooms upstairs. And the bedrooms are quite large with room enough for cribs etc. there is no air conditioning but the house is shaded and we did not feel uncomfortable once. We loved it here! We also significantly improved our volleyball and badminton skills during the course of the week!

Great location and beautiful yard but house could use lots of improvement for the price you pay.

Beautiful property but interior improvements to bathrooms, kitchen, screens, sliding doors should not be an obstacle to home owner for the weekly price charged. Water cooler should be provided because of only drinking water option being well water . Other homes we have rented in this price range have always provided this when well water was only option. Also, home is very cluttered with no drawer space or comfortable areas for your clothing and belongings to be accessible .

The house was very comfortable for our extended family. Plenty of sleeping space and relaxation areas. Enough bathroom space for our 14. Well stocked kitchen. Terrific laundry/entry are to drop all our bags of supplies.The best part of the property is the outside! The trees are spectacular!!! 120 year old poplars line the lake’s edge and dot the yard along with beautiful flower beds and other mature trees. Sitting outside was magnificent!!! Cool breezes, just the best. Our young children played their hearts out for hours. They claim that was their favorite part of the trip! Playing in the huge yard. Everything was pretty perfect.The only change I’d like to see is some brightening in the living room. Possibly some better lighting and lighter colors in the decor to give the room a little lift. It’s very brown. Otherwise, rent this grande dame. She’s a stunner!

A lovely vintage "cottage" for a large group.

We booked a year in advance and from the first correspondence we were impressed by the prompt replies and personal touches. Didn't hurt that we are all Boilermakers, as is the owner! We had two weeks with two different families and it was perfect for both! Lots of grandkids, lots of yard, even a sand beach area that got replenished while we were there! Rink couldn't have been more accommodating, even offering to buy a newer high chair for one of our little ones ( a very generous offer but not necessary). We served meals- we had up to 16 - mostly on the lawn or on the porch. The kitchen worked great for us and on chillier mornings we all found a way to have coffee there together. Our favorite evening location was around the fire pit. Lots of wood to wagon over, and big enough for all the marshmallow sticks for the s'mores. The kids loved the huge yard, and it was wonderful not having to worry about traffic or road noise. The home is located on a private drive away from the main road - very safe and quiet. Great location on the lake, too. It's faster to boat to Leland than to drive! All in all, a successful vacation! Thanks, Rink, for sharing your home.

Best Wedding Location Ever!

We recently had our wedding at the Wheeler Cottage and it exceeded all of our expectations! We were looking for a location that offered a low-key, up-north Michigan feel - and we sure found it. Rink was extremely helpful since we were planning the wedding from Colorado and he was more than accommodating for us and our guests. The property was breathtaking; it is surrounded by water on three sides and the trees that frame the property are not only beautiful but offer great shade for events. Since it faces west, we were able to enjoy the nightly sunsets. The house has a classic rustic feeling that is welcoming for those staying in the house as well as those who just stop by. For the actual wedding; there was plenty of room for our caterer, the wedding tent, parking, a bonfire and extra space for people to wander the property in awe of its beauty. From the day we arrived until the day we left the house was perfect and we could not have asked for a better place for a week vacation as well as our wedding. We are already planning a trip to return with our friends and family. Our friends and family cannot stop talking about the best wedding location they have ever seen! If you have the opportunity to host any event at this house (wedding or otherwise) you would be missing the chance of a lifetime if you pass it up!!

Fairytale wedding

Stayed at the Wheeler cottage for a week in August and had the best time! My fiance (now husband) and I wanted to choose a spot where we could not only have a beautiful wedding but also spend some time with our families. We stayed for the week with both sides of our family, about 15 in all, and everyone had a fantastic time. The cottage was plenty big that there was enough privacy for everyone and no one felt like we were on top of each other. The inside of the house is amazing, with beautiful woodwork and art everywhere; each room was unique. The kitchen was well equipped and we were able to cook every meal there for the whole group; we had some wonderful dinners gathered around the table on the sun porch, watching the sunset. The property was also spectacular and we all enjoyed lounging in the chairs and drinking wine, playing games in the yard, and riding around the lake and into Leland on the pontoon we rented. We had our wedding on Friday and it was like a fairytale. The weather was perfect and the setting was so romantic and perfect; many guests told us it was the best wedding they had ever been too. Rink was also extremely accommodating and helped us with anything we needed when it came to the wedding or any arrangements; he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Overall the week and the wedding were absolutely perfect and I couldn't have imagined anything better!!

Great Home for Vacationing the "Lake Living" Lifestyle

A huge home with even bigger property. We had 10 adults and 9 small children, ranging from 5 years to 6 months. There was plenty of space that we did not drive each other crazy! Plenty of room to run around for kids, and the volleyball court is in great shape. Excellent views for sunsets and the dock accommodates rental boats and sun bathers. Don't leave things on the dock overnight, a steady breeze took away a life vest and cooler! There is a small sandy beach on the property and was "good enough" for some of the kids to play in, but for a real beach experience drive the 6 miles to the Big Lake near downtown Leland. 350' feet of frontage is mind blowing and a beautful view, but you really only want to access the water by this beach area or the docks. Close drive to Leland and other great places on the peninsula. The kids rang the "dinner bell" every night to let everyone know food was on. Great glass-enclosed porch was a good place to hang out on our rainy day. Both propane and gas grills available, just about all appliances and dishware you can think of are there. Rink Wheeler is one of the nicest and most attentive people you will meet. Answered multiple email questions before our trip promptly, and addressed any questions/concerns just as fast when we are at the property. We would definitely come back! Thanks again!

Beautiful Wedding on the Lake

We hosted our wedding at the Wheeler Cottage this summer. The house is a beautiful, well-maintained structure with exquisite detail and turn of the century charm. Just as importantly, it is large enough to entertain big groups. We were able to host several members of our wedding party. Even with every bedroom full, the place seemed quite spacious. The property itself is also quite large: we were able to hold our ceremony and reception in separate areas on the grounds with ease. We had ~90 guests though we could have easily accommodated several more. On-site parking was also sufficient. The house is situated on the Eastern shore, so sunsets are an added bonus. The owner was attentive and quite accommodating, while affording us plenty of privacy. He took the trouble to have the landscaping touched up before the big event, and was generally willing to help however necessary. We rented a 40' x 60' tent for the reception, though could have fit something bigger if needed. Had their been rain or very cold weather, we would have felt comfortable moving folks inside to the large patio and great rooms. Our guests loved the house too: many openly considered renting the property themselves for future events. We were quite familiar with the Leelanau Peninsula and selected this site carefully after viewing several others in the area. Compared to many other outdoor wedding venues in the area, we felt we were getting a great deal. Many other venues only offered single day access - and for a higher price. We were able to have a lovely vacation and wedding all in one. I can't think of any negatives about our experience. We hope to have another gathering at the Wheeler Cottage in the future.

Thanks Patrick for the wonderful review! It was indeed a pleasure to have you and your family consider The Wheeler Cottage for this special occasion. One which you will remember the rest of your lives. It brings back beautiful memories when I had my daughter’s wedding here in 1999. A special day. We also had some 100+ attend. It worked out perfectly as she had her bridesmaids and close family stay with her at the cottage during the week. My best to you and to Tiffany and know that you are always welcomed anytime at The Wheeler Cottage.

We absolutely loved our stay at this property! Warden’s Point is our favorite spot on North Lake Leelanau, and we especially enjoyed the charm and character of the historic cottage.We brought our boat and made great use of the dock and mooring buoy. We spent our days boating through the Narrows and into town, along with plenty of tubing, skiing, and enjoying the lake.The large yard was another highlight. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have fun playing football, croquet, badminton, volleyball, and more. There was also plenty of parking, which made it easy for our whole family and all of our vehicles and gear.One thing to note is that the cottage does not have air conditioning, which we knew ahead of time and were completely comfortable with. There were plenty of fans available, and the nights typically cooled down nicely with the windows open.It was a wonderful family getaway, and we’re already talking about coming back next year. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a classic, relaxing Lake Leelanau experience!

Unforgettable Labor Day Weekend at Wheeler Cottage

A magical place in the Land of Delight! Step back in time but with all of the modern conveniences! Kids loved it so much, they didn’t even want to leave to go to Lake Michigan. Rink Wheeler would be so proud of the fabulous job his children have done continuing his mission of maintaining, updating and sharing this epic estate with others. Thank you Kathy and family for a fantastic family experience that will last a lifetime!

Lots of space in a fabulous location

The location and the owner were wonderful- the property is amazing and the owner was lovely: responsive and very helpful . The house is older and could use some TLC (the bathrooms are dated ) as well as more lighting in the common areas . The upstairs rooms were very warm when the weather was hot out and not easy to cool them off even with the additional fans the owner brought over. Fortunately we got the gamut of weather so it was only unbearably hot the first day and a half. The kitchen is very well equipped and the family porch is a great hang out space when not enjoying all the outdoor space and the lake.

Wonderful time!

This property is beautiful and very private. Our grandchildren had plenty of space to run and play, and the house is spacious and grand. The owner was very responsive and gracious. Thanks, Kathy, for sharing your family’s home with us. We will never forget it!

Review of Wheeler Family Cottage

The location, expansive lawn, boat dock were ideal for our family of 7 adults and 9 children. The grounds - ideal. Upstairs bedrooms required fans that we purchased. Living room could use more light. Overall very ideal home for our family.

Fabulous Family Cottage

The Wheeler Cottage is a spectacular location for a large/multi-generational family vacation. We had a fabulous family reunion/birthday celebration there. Beautiful lake views, the grounds are gorgeous, and the wonderfully spacious home is full of charm and character. We especially loved the huge front porch, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, a great dock and mooring buoy for the boat we rented, the fire pit & volleyball net, along with plenty of chairs and tables for having fun in the yard. Mr. Wheeler was a delight to chat with----he was very gracious, helpful, and accomodating.

Beautiful Cottage!!

Our family had a wonderful time at the Wheeler cottage. We were welcomed with red carpet treatment. The peaceful setting and large yard was perfect for our family with little children. The kitchen was fully stocked and there were supplies for all your needs. Rink was a very good host and made sure we were taken care of all week. We could not have asked for a more peaceful and relaxing week to get away during this crazy year. We look forward to returning to this wonderful cottage in the future. Thank you Rink and the Wheeler family for sharing your home with us. We are very grateful to have the opportunity to experience Lake Leelanau at its finest.

The Wheeler Cottage has been a beloved part of our family for over 60 years. Purchased by our grandparents in the early 1960s as a summer retreat, it became a cherished gathering place for our extended family. In the 1990s, our father moved there full-time and spent the best years of his life there as part of the Leland community. He loved his home with all his heart and transformed it into a very special place for all of us. His legacy lives on in The Wheeler Cottage, inspiring a love for the Leland community in his children and grandchildren. We are honored to share this wonderful place with you. We hope that it brings your family much joy, love, and lasting memories
