Cozy little cabin in the woods with the perfect view of the lake. Very communicative hosts and easy check in/out. Will definitely be back!

The lake was gorgeous. The beach is sandy/hard bottom, which makes it nice to walk out in the water. While the property shares a dock with an adjacent cabin, it would have been nice to have access to a rowboat or kayaks to fully enjoy the water.It is a short drive north to the village of Lake Leelanau, south to Perrin’s Landing (Paradise Cove), or east to Suttons Bay. Traverse City is 10 min. away. The cabin has an excellent, super efficient space heater. We visited in September with warm days and chilly nights, so we used the space heater at night. There is also a fireplace but we learned after arrival that it is not usable for a real fire. The king bed was super comfortable with a fabulous view of the water when you awaken! Ample bath towels and wash cloths are provided for showering and the bathroom is remodeled with a nice new shower, sink, and toilet.The kitchen area has everything you need except a dish-drying rack for washing dishes. It has an excellent gas stove, a good-sized frig/freezer, a large coffee-maker, and a large counter-top microwave. Be aware that the key to the front door (which you are provided) does NOT work on the back door lock. So if you lock the front door from the inside and throw the bolt, then exit from the back door, you will be locked out. The biggest pluses for this rental were access to the lake and lots of privacy. The biggest downside was beige shag carpet throughout the cabin including the kitchen area.

I had a wonderful time on a trip with my best friend! We each brought our dogs, and we loved this perfect cabin on the lake.

Shabby and disappointing cabin.
