My husband and I were the only people staying in this really nice, comfortable home. We slept in the bedroom on the first floor. Our 2 dogs were with us and having the fenced in yard was extremely helpful. Everything was very clean and in great working order. Thank you, Greg, so much for the opportunity to stay here. We would stay here again if we were ever in the area again.

This was the perfect cottage to reconnect with my best friend of over 45 years (now living in Dallas). The location was convenient to absolutely everything in the area, Fishtown, Wineries, Restaurants, Traverse City, and local beaches. Having my basset hound babies with me, allowed me peace of mind and less to stress over.The hosts were AMAZING and so accomodating. 10/10 stay and will definitely be returning.

This is the second year we have stayed. It feels like our second home and we look forward to returning once a year! Very clean and cozy. The place provided plenty of essentials which made the stay even better. The owner also was very generous to let us enter a couple hours be fire check in to decorate the house with light birthday decorations to celebrate our mom’s. Great location as well! Thank you for another year of memories.

Great cottage

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It is well stocked and has a great backyard-we enjoyed the firepit and grilling out. We brought our dog and he loved the spacious backyard. The location is ideal to visit Suttons Bay, Leland, and all of the great surrounding areas. The owners were very responsive to our questions leading up to the stay as well-would certainly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Gregory Gaudard

Host profile image
My job requires me to travel the world every month, & we have the option to live where ever we want. I see some great places, but none compare to where we have chosen to call home, Leelanau County. My wife & I grew up here, moved back to the area 17 years ago & are raising our family here. We spend our free time enjoying the activities the area offers, boating, the beaches, the Cherry Festival, hiking the dunes, & sampling local crafted beers - wines & spirits. In the winter we enjoy downhill & xc skiing, sledding & snowmobiling.

Why they chose this property

*Family & pet

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is located a stones throw away from all the attractions in the area, so if you want to experience Leelanau like the locals, we are the people, & this is the cottage to stay in. Come experience our Leelanau !.
