Family Friendly Lakefront Home

**Family Friendly stays only, please no Bachelor/Bachelorette or College Parties. Our goal is simple. We want you and your family to make this newly remodeled lakefront home your regular weekly rental home for your Northern Michigan vacations. My family purchased this home in October 2015 and started an extensive remodeling phase that was completed in February 2016. You will have plenty of fun at this beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 full bath home located on South Lake Leelanau.

This property offers a huge backyard, 3 foot lakeside fire pit, sand bottom lakefront, a basketball hoop, and ample parking. The interior of the home features a remodeled open floor design with a huge chef's table that offers gorgeous views of the lake. I just replaced all of the windows throughout out the house and added a new central air condition for comfort. Also included in this remodeling are new hardwood flooring throughout the main level of the home and a new full bath in the lower level. There is a great dining area on the outside upper deck of the home that should be used to take advantage of having laughs during a meal while watching the sunset over the lake. The kitchen flows into the large living room area that is equipped with a big flat screen HDTV with full cable TV access.

The Master Bedroom overlooks the lake and has its own full bathroom. The other two bedrooms on the main floor offers a queen bed in each bedroom with a full bathroom across the hall. The lower bedroom offers three sets of bunk beds and a new full bathroom. Sheets and towels are included in the rental.

Lake Leelanau is recognized nationally for being an excellent fishing lake. Fishing off the dock has been known to net its share of Walleye, Perch, and Bass Fish. It is also an all sports lake, that you can rent a Pontoon or Water Ski Boat and have it delivered to your dock for your convenience. Lake Leelanau travels for miles from Leland to Traverse City and offers restaurants and bars that you can dock your boat and dine.

The town of Lake Leelanau, which is only 2 miles down the road, has a grocery store, coffee and breakfast shops, a vast number of wineries, and a distillery that is known for their Gin, Vodka, and Whiskey. The town of Leland is about 7 minutes away. Leland is where the Historic Fishtown is located with its many restaurants and shops, and Fishing Charters that will take you and your group out on Lake Michigan for Lake Trout or Salmon fishing trips. The city of Suttons Bay is also a short 9 minute drive that offers its own flare of restaurants and shops, along with a movie theater. If a trip to the Sleeping Bear Dunes is something you would like to do, it is located less than 30 minutes away. So many things to see and do in the heart of Leelanau County, and THIS house sits perfectly centered on South Lake Leelanau ready for you to enjoy and relax.

Family fun
We had a great time with our adult kids and 2 grandsons. We were able to dock our boat right there which made it easy to take grandsons tubing and fast boat rides The swim area was nice and sandy and just right for non swimmers The house was perfect for large group dinners and games at night plenty of seating in and out. We will remember this for years to come and hope to do again

Great spot right on Lake Leelenau!
Friendly host, really well remodeled house right on Lake Leelenau. 3 bedrooms and 2 bath on the main floor and another full bath downstairs off the bunkhouse that walks out into the backyard. Second tier deck overlooking the water outside the kitchen is great. Well appointed kitchen with big island and seating all around it. We stayed here for the Bayshore Memorial Weekend and it was great. Coffee and cocktails on the new second story deck were the best!

My niece's wedding
The house was just as advertised. Very clean, very roomy. Beautiful updated bathrooms. Beds for all 10 of us, with room to spare. Beautiful, convenient location on Lake Leelanau. Would consider staying here again. The host was very helpful in ironing out an issue with VRBO not acknowledging receipt of my payment to him.

Wedding week for my daughter
Not as clean as we were expecting, we cleaned the kitchen floor and vacuumed the basement carpet Cleaning people need to be more affective, they didn’t leave enough towels, bed comforter was dirty and they forgot to leave a bottle of wine per the host’s directions Bill called them and resolved our issues Host did mention that there we’re going to be fruit flies, my wife had to make a trap to try and control them, seems like it helped

Fantastic Family Vacation!
We have been coming to the Traverse City area for several years now with our extended family. This home is absolutely beautiful and has the perfect layout for a large family gathering. Plenty of space for board games and large family meals. It was extremely clean. The lake is great for swimming and boating. The shallow area is sandy, not rocky like many other properties in the area. There is a kayak rental right up the street. We kayaked back to the house! The dunes and Traverse City are not too far away which our older teens took full advantage of. Plenty of parking which has been an issue at other properties. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The owner is very gracious and easy to contact.

Amazing house with the perfect location!
Bill’s property is one of a kind. Beautiful house with upgrades, super clean and a great set up. We had two families including 4 teenagers and the house had everything we needed. We ate every meal in the house and the fully stocked kitchen was perfect. The view of the water is so peaceful. We rented a boat for the week and were able to tie it up to the dock. Bill is easy to communicate with and available for any questions. A great week of making memories!

Wonderful vacation week!
My extended family of eleven spent our twelfth year vacation at this beautiful home. It is without a doubt, the nicest home we ever rented in northern MI. We loved how the five children ages 6 thru 15 had their own dorm and private bathroom downstairs. This also gave the adults some alone time away from the kids. The house is laid out very nice with a large open kitchen and family room. The master suite was perfect for my husband and I. The yard is big and the grass is soft and green. The water was warm with a great sandy bottom. Everyone had a wonderful time and we thank the owners for sharing their beautiful home.

The lake house was very clean and plenty of room for everyone.
This was a great place for a family vacation. The home was very clean and maintained very well. There was plenty of yard space and a great swing set for my grandson. It also had a good spot for campfires at night right by the lake. We all loved the big open kitchen. It was a great week with with the whole family .

Great Vaca!
This is the first time we stayed at this home. Had a great time. Wide open living space for the two families we had. Many updates and decorated beautifully. The home was clean and very well maintained. Big open yard for lounging in the sun or yard games. It was easy to secure our boat at the dock. We had a small issue with the indoor internet, but the owner was very attentive and talked us through correcting the problem. It was easy to connect to the internet whether we were inside or outside in the yard. Its an easy drive to nearby towns-Leland, Northport, Glen Arbor. Would definitely stay there again!

Great Experience
We arrived a little early and the home was already to go. The home was very clean and ready for us, which was super. The home was well equipped in the kitchen and the kitchen was very large, lots of natural light, much better then other places we have stayed in the past. Nice deck over looking the lake, lower level deck had a dual grill with gas or charcoal options, lots of seating for a large group, nice dock for boats and toys and close to many eateries. This was a great home for families.
