Lake house holiday rentals in Lake Leelanau

The house was just as described. The hosts were very responsive to messages. The kitchen had what we needed to cook meals. There was lots of extra,unexpected, things that were great. The makeup remover pads, all of the soap, shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, even detergent were all provided. Plus there was plenty of hot water for 5 adults to shower. Our pups loved the fenced yard. The view is exactly like the pictures show. We would definitely recommend! Heather & Joe

The hosts were very responsive and communicative. The AC kind of went out and the hosts promptly got someone out to fix it. The setting was beautiful! We enjoyed a couple days on the boat (Northaire rentals), then did day trips to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island and then a down day with the kayaks and SUP. My husband enjoyed fishing off the Dockside Pier. We enjoyed ice cream at Moomers, local cider at Royal Farms and our best meal at Toonie’s for Friday fish fry. Us southerners should have been better prepared for colder water and later seasons. The longer days also threw us for a loop but still a great first trip to Michigan!

Host was very friendly and very responsive! House was beautifully decorated, clean and very well stocked. Quiet at night and peaceful location across from Long Lake. Would definitely stay there again!

Another wonderful stay with our family in this property and it's turning into a tradition! Great house, location and host. Clean inside and out, very organized and easy to feel at home. Can't say enough good things about this property. From the grandparents to the young children, everyone loved it!

Empire Beach House was amazing! The location was convenient and easy to find. It’s next to the public beach and boat launch, but noise and traffic one would expect were a non-issue—just low key, friendly locals who respected the private beach and took great pride in the natural beauty of the area. The house itself is spotless, incredibly organized, very comfortable and beautifully decorated with high quality furnishings and appliances. The views from the deck overlooking Lake Michigan and the Dunes to the North and South were jaw dropping. Spent more time there than anywhere else. We highly recommend the Empire Beach House for families and friend groups of 4-6 ppl. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

This was our second time staying at this property and we love it even more than the first time. Such a beautiful location right on the water, plenty of space, clean and walkable to downtown so we hardly used our car. Our kids loved the third floor bunk room. A great extra space. We look forward to future trips at the Innisfree Cottage!

Place was exactly as described. Perfect location for our needs and the ability to bring our dogs was a huge plus. House was spacious and well kept. Would stay here again

Beautiful lakefront property. The host is very kind and always responsive. The host includes so many amenities letting you make the most of the ease of access to the lake. Plenty of space for a big family trip. The location is very close to Trevor City. Yuu are a little close to the road but that isn't too bad. I would definitely love to book again closer to summer. It was a little cold for water activites during our trip. the rooms are bigger than they look in the pictures which is really nice. I would definitely stay again.

family had an amazing time and had lots of fun.

One of the few places that feels worth the payout. I’ve been going to glen arbor on and off for 10 years. This was the first time being on the physical lake (little glen). Having the private access, and having kayaks to go was pretty cool. We created some great memories for my 11 year old son. It was a slice of paradise. I hope to come here again sometime in the future when it’s warmer.

Where do I start… this was the perfect getaway for myself, my husband and our fur baby. The house was exactly as described and is placed in the most peaceful neighborhood - while also being minutes away from everything Traverse City has to offer! Ramy is the most wonderful host; answering all our questions and suggesting some great local spots as well. We felt immediately at ease and truly could enjoy our vacation thanks to Ramy and this perfect lil home. We hope to be back next time we visit Traverse City! ☺️

I can’t recommend the Cherry Pit enough - the home is beautiful, the view is great, and the private pier is so nice to have! My kids went kayaking and swimming in the lake (even though it was chilly!) - so nice to have this option. The hosts are fantastic and provided so many extras like Keurig pods, laundry soap, etc. I loved this place, thank you for hosting us!

The house was in a great location, walkable to Suttons bay but out of the mix as well. We loved the private beach and views from the living room. Communication with fast and easy. Worth it to note that there is only one AC. They did have a bunch of large fans, we just hit a hot week there sleeping wise.

We had a wonderful stay. This house was well equipped in the kitchen, baths and bedrooms with quality, newer, matching pans/utensils, towels and bedding. Plenty of paper products as well. Lots of space for 7 adults, including a very comfortable living room (2nd on lower level) and beautiful deck with plenty of seating and even a Solo wood stove!

A clean, cozy, well decorated space that had everything we needed and then some. Peaceful area, close to lake. We really felt at home and enjoyed ourselves. Chip makes everything clear and easy. Great host.

The hemlock house was so cozy and charming! I loved the up north decor and vibe. The house had everything we needed and was very clean. Will definitely come back!

We had a great stay at Jason’s home. Lake was wonderful, fire was lovely, home was clean and there was plenty to do. We would stay again!!

Excellent lake house. Amazing views. Great amenities including a wonderful screened in porch, kayaks, stand up paddle boards, life jackets and plenty of toys. The house was immaculately clean on our arrival and exactly as it appears in the pictures. Very friendly neighbors as well!

The location is great- close to Glen Arbor, Leland, Sleeping Bear, several Leelanau Conservancy parks. The house was very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated with lots of up north charm. There are 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 full baths, great sunroom for dining and reading, large sunny backyard. We were up for Memorial Day weekend and it was a little chilly- but cottage was warm and cozy! Hosts were very friendly and responsive. I would definitely stay again!

I was incredibly happy with our stay here and felt right at home. This might sound silly, but I love that they leave all of their cleaning supplies there so I could clean and vacuum throughout the week. I also loved how there was a closet with hangers, empty dressers, and a clothes hamper. I didn't have to feel like I was living out of my suitcase. I loved the design of the house, especially the kitchen. It's what really set this home apart from others for me. We brought our own paddle boards but the water was still pretty cold, so we opted to use the kayaks Brandi provided instead. We so appreciated that and it was such a short drive to the water! I would definitely stay here again.

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.

We were here for 3 days and it was exactly what we’re looking for. This is a clean house that has 3 bedrooms - one with bunk beds suitable for children. This house was right on the Lake with 2 kayaks available for use and a bonfire pit in the back yard. It’s nestled in a quiet and quaint neighborhood. The living spaces were cozy with 2 couches with one space have a large tv. Thank you for providing us a lovely space for us while we visit Traverse City.

We had such a wonderful time at Chelsea's place! Elk Rapids is so beautiful to begin with and the cottage felt so tucked in and private but close to all the fun things. A big storm rolled in while we were there so our beach plans turned into the loveliest time of rest reading by the fireplace and watching rhe lightning over Bass Lake. We also just loved the design and layout of the home, which is something we always consider when booking an Airbnb, and it was actually more beautiful than the pictures depicted! The very open kitchen and dining area with the more intimate bedrooms really would make a sweet family space to stay as well! Will certainly book again!

The house was clean and comfortable for 4 adults. We loved the location and everything provided. The house had a great outdoor area. It was all we needed for our stay in Cadillac.
