Great stay. Clean place. Very easy access to all that the Leelanau are has to offer. Even on cold fall days, perfect place to relax. Only causation is if you’re used to a larger bed it’s a bit tight, but still worth it.
My partner and I stayed here for a long weekend and couldn’t have asked for more. What a beautiful area in such a romantic cottage. It’s close to everything and the views are amazing. Would definitely come back!
My girlfriend and I stayed at the White Pine Cottage for a long weekend and absolutely loved it! Beautiful rustic home with all modern amenities that is perfectly situated near Leland and short driving distance to Suttons Bay, Glen Arbor, and Traverse City. The owners are super friendly and communicated very well. We will definitely be returning to stay again!
Absolutely perfect! The space was just the right size for two people; spotlessly clean and exactly as pictured in the listing. The host was thoughtful and communicative, even checking in after our arrival to make sure everything was going well. We were also greeted with a sweet little check-in surprise, which was such a nice touch. We truly loved our stay and would 100% recommend this place to anyone!
This lovely cabin is close to everything the Michigan coast has to offer. Our family of two adults, our 6-year old child, and our two very small, non-shedding dogs had an excellent vacation this weekend! The amenities are exactly as described, and the property manager and owners were wonderful hosts. Would definitely recommend for a couple or small family.
*One minor note is that the internet isn’t really strong enough to work remotely/participate in virtual meetings, but for a vacation where work isn’t necessary it was excellent!
I can't say enough positive things about our stay at this cottage. The location is great, the cottage was spotless, and I absolutely loved the decor - it's bright and airy and full of colorful local art. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a bottle of wine, several Perriers chilling in the fridge, and plenty of soft, fluffy towels in the bathroom. The owners live in the cottage just below and very kindly lent us a tool when our rental car's tire went flat (bonus points for their sweet dog).
We loved Leland and my husband declared this "one of his favorite places we have ever stayed." We can't wait to come back!
It’s a beautiful home and very well appointed. We stayed with our 9 mo old and it all worked very well. The home has wonderful natural light, and so for a family with a baby, I recommend bringing your portable blackout shades.
Property is as photographed and described, but even BETTER! Owner pride and craftsmanship on display here, with an eye for decorating and personal seasonal touches make this such a cozy retreat. Heated floors in primary bedroom and bath such a treat as the temperature dropped, and the gas fireplace in the living room removed the chill immediately. Exceeded every expectation!
The pictures do not do this Cottage justice, beautifully decorated spotlessly clean and perfectly located. Owners were very nice and I cannot say enough good things about this cottage.
We enjoyed staying at this new cabin. Owners were very helpful and communication was excellent. You can see the pride they have in this home. The location is excellent. The Wifi could have been better, but the Roku worked well on the TV and we were able to use our cell service to complement the Wifi that was there in order to complete work we had to do on vacation.
My wife and I had a wonderful stay with our dog at this beautiful cottage that looks out over Lake Leelanau. The deck has multiple places to relax offering shade or sunshine. The cottage is well furnished with anything you would need for a weeks stay, the washer/dryer is a real plus. I was unsure from the listing if it had air conditioning but it does and the listing also said carbon monoxide detectors were uncertain but there are 3 of them. We would definitely stay here again!
Perfect location for Leland, Sutton’s Bay, Glen arbor and northport.
Cottage was adorable and had everything one could need
Porch was delightful for am coffee and pm drinks.
Lovely place for two, with dogs. We enjoyed this as a great base for looking around the north. Clean, charming small place to stay eith great facilities. We aim to stay there again!
