Spacious, clean and helpful in a great location

Nice roomy old house in a great location in Lake Leelanau. Very clean and comfortable beds! This is a new owner so a few furnishings, kitchen supplies etc were just being set up. Upstairs bedrooms are simply furnished but comfortable (we came as only a married couple altho it sleeps 6).But the host was very helpful in supplying things missing. Great location to all the towns and lakes in the area! Sleeping Bear Dunes, hiking, kayaking, restaurants, wineries, ice cream, and more! We look forward to returning.

About the host

Hosted by Betsy Castillo

Warm Greetings! We love Leelanau County. After an accidental "stumbling" on the area over a decade ago, our summer memories have been made on the shores of Lake Michigan in Leelanau County ever since. Discovering this special place is like stepping back in time. From the slower pace, to the breathtaking setting, family friendly beaches, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park, and incredible local food and drinks. It has brought us much joy to bring our children here. Hosting your getaway or family vacation means more to us than just providing a place to rest. It is truly an experience that will bring your family back year after year.

Why they chose this property

This cottage is a historical local home. You will fall in love with the quaint porch, the farmhouse hood over the stove, the vintage wood floors, and the updated features of the home. Walking to the local restaurants, wineries, the bakery, and to coffee make the location of this home perfect! The central location on the peninsula allows you to "choose your own adventure", and there are so many yet to be had!
