Your primary host will be Chris, the vacation rental manager. It`s unlikely that you`ll meet him in person but he is available via the Airbnb app or by text on his mobile (number shared per request).
He`s a TC local and is eager to help answer any questions you might have, provide recommendations on his favorite places, or chat about anything else you might have on your mind! :)
The home has well water, and while it`s not overly hard, some guests might be sensitive to the taste. For those folks, we provide a water dispenser that gets refilled regularly with those large jug refills. Regardless, the water is completely safe to drink, bath in, etc. :)
The property sits on holding tanks, and there is an alarm that may sound to indicate they need servicing/pumping in the upcoming future; if you hear the alarm sound, please shut it off and let the host know so he can schedule a pumping to occur following your check out (see house manual for further info)
Water safety is extremely important. Therefore, anyone who is under the age of 13 must wear a lifejacket when in the water, anyone using any of the provided watercraft (row boat, kayaks) must wear a lifejacket, and all youths under the age of 13 must be with a supervising adult when near the water.
Fire safety is equally important. Therefore, please make sure to keep children away when having a campfire, keep flames lower than 3 feet, and be sure to fully douse the flames when you`re finished with your fire by dumping a full gallon of water on the fire/coals until they are completely dark.

Couldn't have asked for a better experience at this rental. Wonderful location. Breathtaking lake, we enjoyed swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding. This house is very clean and organized, and well supplied with everything we needed from outdoor games, board games, children's books, kitchen supplies. Highly recommend this to families!
We stumbled upon this rental house as one of the last rental houses on a lake in TC and it ended up being perfect for our group of girls! The house is super spacious, so we never felt too cramped with a full house. The amenities are endless, the beds are comfortable, and you can beat waking up to water views! The location is super easy to get to being close to downtown Traverse City and also close to wineries. Communication with the property manager was great. Highly recommend!
The house was very beautiful and we had a wonderful stay. However, when we came in, there were a few small flies. We thought nothing of it since they probably flew in from outside. However, the next day, we found extra trash cans in the cabinet next to the trash can which were all filled to the brim with trash from past people who stayed there. We took the trash out and it fixed the fly problem luckily. Giving it 5 stars because other than that, the host was responsive and very nice and the house was very nice, spacious, with a beautiful view of lake leelanau, and it was an overall great stay.
