About this cottage rental
Come unwind at our relaxing lakefront cottage! Beautiful Lake Leelanau views from living room, kitchen, and upstairs bedroom/balcony. The summer sunsets over the water are truly unforgettable.
Located just 20 minutes north of downtown Traverse City and 12 minutes from charming Suttons Bay, our cottage offers the perfect balance of quiet lake life and easy access to restaurants, wineries, and shopping. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is an easy 40-minute drive. We provide a detailed local guidebook to help you explore the best of the area and are always happy to share recommendations.
Step outside to a spacious deck with a gas grill and outdoor dining table-ideal for morning coffee or sunset dinners. The lake is approximately 50 feet from the deck, with a small sandy beach area, fire pit, dock, and easy water access for swimming and boating. Two kayaks are available for guest use-perfect for peaceful morning paddles or exploring the shoreline at sunset.
A docked pontoon (20 ft 2006 Bennington with 50hp) is available for weekly rent ($1000/week) with proof of a valid boater's license. A signed waiver is required. (No daily rentals.)
We want you to feel completely at home during your stay. Bed linens and bath towels are provided (please bring your own beach towels). While our cottage does not have air conditioning, the cool northern Michigan evenings and lake breezes typically keep the home comfortable.
This is a non-smoking property.
We are pet friendly and welcome well-behaved dogs to vacation with you!
Guests enjoy full private access to the entire cottage and property. Please note a portion of the upstairs is locked and not accessible during guest stays.

The property was perfect for our needs with a beautiful location on Lake Leelanau. We enjoyed the use of the pontoon boat for cruises around the lake and the location on the lake provided for perfect sunset enjoyment. We also enjoyed the proximity to some great wineries and proximity to Traverse City. We had perfect weather for the entire week and we all agreed it was a perfect vacation getaway.
