Family Getaway
This was the perfect location for our annual fall family color tour! The property was perfect for our family of 4. The location was stunning! To be so close to the water and have coffee on the deck was wonderful. We really enjoyed the cozy fireplace. And the restaurant across the street is an absolute gem! We will be trying to book here again for our future trips to the Leelanau area.

Accommodations + Location
This little cabin is perfect - great location between all of our favorite Leelanau destinations and with a tiny little "beach" right on Little Traverse Lake. Mel + Neal could not be more accommodating. Their pride of ownership is evident in how clean they keep their cabin, and they go out of their way to make sure their guests are comfortable and taken care of.
