This space exceeded my expectations! Very clean, felt genuinely homey, and you can tell how much attention to detail and effort was put into this space to make it feel like a true home away from home. The best rental property I have ever booked, and look forward to potentially booking again.

Great Place!!

We took our mom (78 yoa) for a nice relaxing weekend w/family. Spent time at the National Cherry Festival, went to Moomers (a couple times), visited shops, and ate at many restaurants. Had a great time, wish the weather was a little nicer, but we’ll take it!

Perfect for our family

We come up for Cherry festival every summer. This was the first time we stayed as a family under one roof. The house was perfect place for us to stay. Plenty of entertainment for the kiddos in the basement and yard. The open concept was nice to meet with everyone in the morning and figure out plan for the day.

Family Gathering

Wonderful property in a great location. We weren't there for the beach, but it's in super close proximity to Long Lake. Also a quick jaunt to golf and restaurants and downtown Traverse City. We really enjoyed our stay. Large bedrooms, plenty of towels and essentials in the bathrooms and kitchen. Great games in the basement as well. Overall, we had a great time connecting with our adult kids in an environment where everyone had everything they needed to be comfortable!

Fantastic Location

Great location if you want to experience everything Leelanau Peninsula has to offer. We spent time in Traverse City, Empire/Sleeping Bear Dunes, Sutton’s Bay and more. Rove Winery, Jacobs Farm, Gallagher’s market stand and Moomers are all so close and are fantastic! The homeowner’s information was super easy to follow and the home had every amenity we needed plus more. My daughter especially loved the games downstairs. Lots of space, great fire pit, and privacy — looking forward to staying here again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is clean, well equipped with comfortable beds, a variety of pots and pans, coffee maker, appliances and more. The home is conveniently located near Long Lake. There was a nice long driveway where we could park our boat and several other cars. There is a firepit in the back yard and lawn chairs. The owner was very easy to work with.

About the host

Hosted by Leo K

Host profile image
This is our family-owned home, cherished not only as a rental but also as a place where our own family gathers. We are two working professionals with three little ones (growing faster than we can keep up!).

Finding this property was a long journey—we were very particular about the kind of place we wanted for our family. When we discovered it, we instantly fell in love. It felt like the perfect long-term estate: a peaceful retreat for both us and our guests, nestled in a wonderful neighborhood.

We’ve poured our hearts into every detail to make this house a true gem, and we’re always looking for ways to make it even better (we really do love the little details!). The spacious, open layout makes it ideal for families to come together, celebrate, and create lasting memories.

This home is a keeper for us—and we think it will be a must-visit for you too. Come see for yourself!

Why they chose this property

Why would you want to rent our place out of the ample variety of other places? This is a spacious ranch house with 1+ acre land that can welcome 8+ guests overnight. It is tastefully decorated with much attention to details inside and out. It is nestled between the two sandy beaches of Long Lake with the boat launch on one of them. The location is so amazing that it is practically close to anything. These are just some examples: Walk or short drive to the beach, 8min to Rove vineyard, 15 min to downtown, 8 min to the major retailers, 5 min to Moomers and Jacob's, 2 min to tennis courts and kids playgrounds (but we also have a playground in our yard), fishing, Crystal Mountain 30min, Sleeping Bear Dunes 30min, Boyne Mountain 1hr. As this is a family owned place, you can expect the warmth as you walk in, you can expect direct communication with the owner, you can expect your family memories made here - this is not a managed cookie cutter, this is a FAMILY loved estate!

What makes this property unique

Our authenticity comes in the following aspects - highly sought for ranch floor plan house, arcades' collection galore in the large walk-out basement, large deck access from the first floor and a back porch access from the walk out basement (both with the ample of seating area, chairs, two tanning outdoor reckiners, gas firepit on the second floor and wood firepit in the yard, long driveway, 1+ acre corner lot, beach nearby, ski resorts, fishing, farms, wineries.
