Lake Leelanu weekend!

Amazing property, awesome communication with the property managers through out the whole process, our family loved the stay with great Lake access, the house is very clean and cozy, we will book this house again next year 100% and would recommend this vacation. One thing is if you are bringing your boat the street is very tight and if you have more than one car there is not much area to park your trailer, other than that everything is amazing.

Nice location/Septic problems

We were excited to book this property for a two-week family vacation. Unfortunately, the home was dirty when we arrived, smelled very musty, had a seeping/wet area in the yard. The septic system was defective and overflowed in the yard. We vacated the property and our vacation was ruined. The rental agency did a wonderful job helping us and was very responsive. Property could be very nice if problems are resolved.
