We had a wonderful time. Hope was well appointed and had everything we needed and more.

My husband and I rented this home for a three-day getaway with our two sons, their wives, and our newborn grandbaby. It was the perfect setup, offering ample space for all. The guys enjoyed the pool table, and we spent a lot of time hanging out with each other in the main living area (there was also a living room area on the second floor, which was nice). The master suite was spacious and luxurious. Everything was very clean and thoughtfully arranged.We all enjoyed conversation and played games on the beautiful patio area overlooking the canal which connects Lake Leelanau with Lake Michigan. My husband and I spent time in the Adirondack chairs out by the dock watching the ducklings and boats pass by. Picturesque! Both young couples made use of the kayaks. (Sadly, the tires on the bikes were flat and we couldn’t locate a tire pump, but that didn’t stop our fun.) We walked the short distance into the village of Leland a couple different times to check out Fishtown, the shops, eat breakfast at Trish’s Dishes (6 minutes away walking) and lunch and dinner at The Cove (12 minute walk). Both restaurants we highly recommend. Our kids enjoyed coffee and reading books in the outdoor courtyard area of Madcap Coffee, as well. Because this was a vacation for me, too, we ate out and didn’t cook, so we missed out on using the high end Wolf brand range and grill.We love this location in Leland, and a short drive to Sutton’s Bay and Northport. Very happily situated!

Accommodations were excellent! Communications were excellent! The setting on the river was heaven!!!

This is a GREAT home and property under normal conditions, but when we visited the conditions were not good at all. There is a house being built next door and the site was super busy, noisy and disturbing. We were looking for peace and quiet, not a parade of cement trucks, well diggers and chainsaws. The rental home owner misled us about the situation before we arrived. He said his home is oriented away from the construction site. It is NOT! He also wasn't responsive when we let him know what was happening during our stay. The house and lot are beautiful—better than the pics—which made our disappointment from the noise, dirt and lack of privacy even more painful. If you want to enjoy the patio, yard, dock and river during the day as we were hoping to, make sure the new construction next door is at a stage that won't ruin your visit.
