Mello Yellow Vacation

We were so. pleased with the house (Mello Yellow). It was very clean, the beds were comfortable and the lake view off the deck was great! It is located in a quiet neighborhood and very close to wineries and small towns that offered our group many opportunities hike, shop and enjoy tastings from the wineries. The host was very attentive to any of our needs and communicated often before, during and and the end of our stay. We would highly recommend this property if you like the outdoors, touring and coming back to a quiet lakefront property.

5 Star Stay

I had a great stay at the property and the host was fantastic to communicate with, responded quickly and was very pleasant. The check in process was simple and easy. The house is perfect to spend a week in, is perfect in size and has a great outdoor space. Everything that you can think of this properly has. I spent a lot of time outside. The lake property is perfect for kids to swim in, the lake is sandy and is not extremely deep. I rented a boat for the week and the dock was perfect for docking and using the boat. The properly is also close both to downtown Leland and Suttons Bay which both have great options for lunch and dinner. I would highly recommended this property and will visit again.

Awesome stay on Lake Leelanau

We loved our stay at Mellow Yellow! The cottage is quaint, comfortable, and the location on the east side of the lake just north of the Narrows cannot be beat. The sunsets are incredible from here! The cottage is not modern, by any means, but it’s perfect for a quiet family vacation and it’s stocked with everything you need, including cookware, beach towels, kayaks and a canoe, laundry…everything!! It’s on a quiet private road that is just minutes to the village of Leelanau and a quick drive to Leland and Glen Arbor. Communication with Debbie, the property manager, was easy! We highly recommend a stay here and hope we can come back someday!

Peaceful cottage in Vacationland

Cottage is located on the lake narrows so peaceful as the boats that do come through need to do so slowly. The cottage was clean and welcoming. The host was super responsive and made suggestions for area favorites. We ate on the deck or at numerous area restaurants. Lake Michigan sites are all nearby. We kayaked and canoed down the narrows for ice cream or coffee, read, did puzzles, went for mountain bike rides and saw the sights. Great vacation spot!!
