Lakefront Ranch Getaway: Private Beach on West Bay
Absolutely gorgeous place to stay! The lakeside ranch is peaceful and surrounded by beautiful scenery. We enjoyed coffee while staring at the beautiful lake every morning. The dogs romped through the spacious backyard which was covered in gorgeous green foliage. The lovely and spacious home is in a great location near downtown TC and all the wineries, but still far enough away to be quiet when it mattered. There were more than enough beach towels, board games, and things to do inside and about the lake. We really didn't want for anything while staying here. I can't say enough good things about our stay here. Incredibly comfortable and inviting... we hope to visit again soon!

It's Grand
We had a wonderful stay! It is in the perfect location. Easy to walk to the beach and town and very comfortable accommodations. Jim was a great host and quick to reply to any questions!

Northport's gorgeous waterfront home-sunset views!
Our group of 5 adults and 2 kids had a great time at Christina’s place. We loved the sunsets and peaceful surroundings. Everything was clean and as described. Christina made for an easy stay. Everything leelanau is just a short drive away. We would love to be back someday.

JOLLI-LODGE~Beach Resort Leland
Beautiful hidden gem right on Lake Michigan. Would stay here again in a heart beat. Felt like home with a relaxed and laid back atmosphere right on the lake. Greg and his wife go above and beyond to make their guests feel most welcomed and provided exceptional customer service. FREE firewood, kayaks and paddleboat was a nice touch along with the 700' of private beach for rockhounding. TRULY MAGICAL! Thank you!

LakeHaus Vibes + Hot Tub
The home was absolutely gorgeous, and the host was very attentive. We had a wonderful time!

Charming Waterfront Haven on West Bay
Corey’s place was perfect for our needs. We loved being able to pull into the garage and let our dogs out directly into the fenced yard. The home was beautiful, very clean and had a wonderful layout. Everything we needed was available in the kitchen and bathrooms, there were even games. We enjoyed the beach access and the sunrise and sunset views. I really hope get another chance to stay here.

Sleeping Bear Dunes Cottage on the Lake #4
The cottage was perfect place to stay while visiting Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. It was cozy and well decorated with a fireplace to heat the cabin on some cold nights. It was located lakeshore and she provided extra kayaks when asked. Also, we were able to bring our Boston Terrier and we so appreciated that. She enjoyed her stay as well. I would definitely recommend Melanie's cottage when visiting the area.

Omena Point Paradise | Waterfront | Sunrise |
A fantastic Fall getaway for our family! The cabin was close enough to towns but remote and on the water for peace and quiet. My kids loved being on the beach hunting for Petoskey stones! We will absolutely go back!

Sutton's Bay, Great Location!
The location was wonderful. Two block walk into town & wonderful restaurants & activities. Terrific & close beach & lovely parks & 1&1/2 mile bicycle path. House is immaculate & well cared for. Great location also for visiting all the surrounding sites & towns of interest.

The ClubHouse at Slow Down
Our family with two young kids had everything we needed at Laura’s place. The kids especially enjoyed the tennis court and games. The location is unbeatable—on the water and within 10 minutes of Empire, Glen Arbor and Lake Michigan. We were also pleasantly surprised by the temperature of the home despite not having air conditioning. Laura provided many fans and we were extremely comfortable!

On the Narrows Apartment 2 - Lakeside with deck!
Lovely location. Beautiful surroundings. Lots to do around the area. I found the people around the area to be rude and somewhat unfriendly. I have visited lots of different locations around the states and have never felt like that before. I never met anyone from whom we rented the place from. We never needed anything either though so I suppose that's a good thing. Price wise is my only complaint. For such a small place it wasn't reasonable price wise. However we made it work and had a wonderful time. I definitely recommend this place for a small group only. 4 or less.

Lake Michigan/Sleeping Bear condo at the Homestead
We had a wonderful time at Kim’s place! She was a great host - super friendly, responsive and helpful. She answered our questions immediately and seemed to take a genuine interest in helping us to enjoy her place. The welcome package was complete and user friendly, even for a couple in their 80s. Kim’s place is clean, quiet and cozy, and has stunning views of Lake Michigan. The photos online are exactly as experienced, although the lake views are even better. We couldn’t decide each day if we wanted to relax, beach walk, or see local sites - there is so much to do. We will definitely be back! Thanks Kim:)

Lake cottage, kayaks, firepit, chefs kitchen
Very nice house. Loved that it had all the amenities and they had everything else you would want or need. Very quiet and beautiful little spot. We were there in the winter but it would be a super cool space in the summer with the little lake right outside. The house was just like the pictures and felt very comfortable. Jess was super responsive when I had a couple of questions so that was great.

Little Glen Lakefront Vacation Home, Sandy Beach
This place was the perfect location as it was right across from the start of the sleeping bear marathon and we were able to walk across to the dune climb. It was clean, spacious and a beautiful view of Little Glen! I would highly recommend to others!

Waterfront home on East Bay - sleeps 8
This was our second stay at Sarah's place. We feel right at home the moment we walk in the door. The home has everything we need. We enjoyed an stress-free, fun, and relaxing stay.

Beach Access & Dock: Little Traverse Lake Cottage!
The cabin was exactly as described. It was small yet functional, but the ability to walk right outside and into the lake made it incredible. Multiple kayaks and the canoe made for easy exploration and our dogs loved playing in the water and snoozing in the shade. The location was great for traveling around the peninsula, everything we wanted was within 20-30 minutes drive.

Chalet By The Bay- a serene waterfront escape
Chalet by the Bay exceeded our expectations! The house was clean and spacious, and the layout of the space and the thoughtful touches and amenities throughout were much appreciated. Our family loved the close proximity to the bay and enjoyed time on the beach - such a beautiful setting! The location was also convenient to reach Suttons Bay, Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and everything in between. We would wholeheartedly recommend Chalet by the Bay to anyone vacationing in this area!

Lake Michigan Beachfront Retreat
Lovely house with lovely grounds. The pictures did not do it or the beach justice. Was really beautiful. The house is setup really well with everything you need for cooking, entertaining and hanging out. We had a lovely time.

Ballein Family's "Innisfree" Cottage in Glen Arbor
We were lucky enough to spend Memorial Day Weekend at Innisfree. We had 3 kids and 5 adults and all had plenty of space. Beds are comfortable, kitchen has everything you needed even quality pots and pans. We loved the panoramic views from the living room and deck. Beach is large and peaceful, perfect for watching the sunset over sleeping bear dunes.

Leeward Beach Cottage darling beach house
Always love staying here! Great spot for a small family with plenty to do in the surrounding areas. For us, it's a great jumping-off point to head north or south... or to the Hop Lot, one of our favorite spots just down the corner.

Cedar Lodge on Lake Leelanau
We love the Cedar Lodge. Brian and Julie were very communicative the few times we had to reach out to them. Their welcome manual was comprehensive and helpful about the home, surroundings, rentals, and restaurant recommendations. The views from the home are amazing. The property is large, quiet and pristine. There were lots of water toys such as kayaks, float boards, and a rowboat. The kitchen was well stocked with everything - lots of dishes, silverware, pots/pans, dishtowels, etc. The home was clean and inviting. The ceiling fans provided cool evenings and the beds were comfortable. We hope to return to Cedar Lodge. From grandchildren, parents, and grandparents - we had a ball!

2BR lakefront cabin with beach access, deck, loft
Stunning location! Comfortable space - great for exploring in Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Bay views in the heart of the Leelanau Peninsula
Our stay was comfortable and conveniently located. The host was communicative and provided excellent local recommendations. Exactly what we needed for our long weekend!

Serenity on Omena Bay - Private Waterfront!
We make it up to northern Michigan a few times each summer. First time staying in Omena, MI. Couldn’t have asked for a better location to spend time with family. We loved being right on the water and a way from the crowds of Traverse City.
