Nice, but...

The cottage itself was lovely and we enjoyed our stay there. That said, it is on a main road so there was quite a bit of traffic noise. Also, the mattress in the main bedroom was saggy but there was a futon that was more comfortable. Unfortunately, there was a short power outage while we were there and since the house has a well, that meant we had no water. While the property manager did respond to our call and kept us updated on when the power might return, we were surprised that she did not offer any assistance like a backup generator or water.

Great location in the peninsula

We loved being in the Leelenau Peninsula away from the hustle and bustle of Traverse City yet within driving range of so many beautiful up north communities. The house is just as described but much more spacious than it appears in the photos. We love the quaintness of the place yet it’s comfortable as well. We enjoyed the new grill for cooking. Host was friendly, accommodating and easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay again.

Sweet little cottage!

We stayed here as an outpost from a larger family vacation and it was perfect! Definitely roomier than we anticipated and very cozy and charming. As with any little old cottage, the outside finds it’s way in a bit, but it is obviously well cared for, clean and tidy. Lovely location just north of Northport. Would definitely recommend!
