This property was clean, cozy, and comfortable for a week long stay and is in a great location to check out all the wonderful spots on the Leelanau peninsula. The property is private and rustic enough to feel like your in the middle of nowhere, and inside is very nice and well furnished. The owner even makes bikes and other items from the large garage available for your use, which was great for bike rides to Good Harbor Bay beach. Highly recommend this property for a family trip.

Set deep in a wooded area and very peaceful day or night! Big upper level open concept living room/kitchen that you get to with stairs. Kitchen equipped with everything you may need! Best part is the the downstairs connected pole barn filled with all things fun for kids… my grandsons had a blast and spent many hours down there in the batting cage. Dogs were welcome here too! Thanks Ted

Contents and condition of the property were unacceptable. Two hunting rifles, four crossbows, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and dozens of target and hunting arrows were visible and accesible in the garage, garage recreational and garage sleeping area and family room. Owner reluctantly removed them to a storage shed and reluctantly put a padlock on it. We continued to find ammunition up to the last night of our 14 day visit. The garage was filled with construction equipment and materials, personal clothing, boxes of shoes, books, photographs, old furniture, ... . The garage recreational and sleeping area were unusable. The family room, kitchen, dinette, two bedrooms and one bathroom are accesible only by the exterior stairs ( 21 stairs ) leading up to the deck. Owner's childrens'/grandchildrens' clothing was in 5 of the 9 drawers in one bedroom. Two loads of laundry were left in the two dryers, one load of wet laundry left in washer upstairs and dirty sheets were left waded up in the bedroom storage closet. No hangars in the only closet located in the "master" bedroom. Deck needs some attention and some kitchen items need to be replaced ( only 2 wine glasses and 3 coffee mugs ). Area under deck needs to have construction equipment and materials removed. Log splitting machine needs to be removed or properly stored. The location and wooded setting of the property are very nice.

The house was fine. The main living area was clean and in good shape. Being close to Glen Arbor was nice. It was also nice to have two sets of washers and dryers. The main issue was with the internet. The internet is very slow and virtually non-existent. I could not even send emails, it was so slow. This was disappointing because I had to work and had to go into town to do it. Also, the pictures showed the garage and basement area as being organized and clean and they looked like a possible place to sleep. But that wasn’t the case. The area was very dirty and piled with stuff. Overall, it was fine and no major complaints other than the internet.

This "barndominium" style getaway was very nice. Great finishes, stellar views, close to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor, and Fishtown.

The property was amazing and the scenery was beautiful. It was about a 30-40 minute drive from town, so you are definitely cut off from the outside world. I would recommend this place 10/10 times.

The setting is so private, beautiful and peaceful, deep in the woods in Leelanau County and yet close to Glen Arbor and Maple City (good food in both), as well as the gorgeous Pyramid Point trail at Sleeping Bear Dunes. Nice deck for coffee and reading and space for fire pits and hammocking. Very relaxing setting in a fabulous location.

We had a great trip and the kids loved the house. So many fun things to do outside and in.

Really comfortable and fun property. Ping pong and hitting cage in the basement was a hoot. Only downsides were the place has no window coverings (got us up early at least) and there was no TP.

Loved this place. Lot of activities close by. Lots of things to do at the house. Ted was very responsive to questions. House was super clean. Our family including the 2 dogs had a great stay.

This is a clean and secluded property in Northern MI. Ted was responsive and easy to work with. The property was close to both Leland and Glen Arbor, but of course, wrapped along various forests and national parks. The house is fully stocked and everything felt clean from the floors down to the pots/pans. I would definitely recommend this house and location to anyone looking for a quiet time away. My family and I will certainly be looking to reserve this place again!

Location of this beautiful and comfortable home is perfect for enjoying all activities along M22–boating, swimming, biking, dining, hiking and more. We even did some curling! Then back to our quiet rental retreat to relax, grill and rest up for more fun in Northern MI.

If not for a commitment at home, I would have asked if we could stay another night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the area. The house is close enough to Glen Arbor, the dunes, and multiple trailheads to be an easy drive anywhere, but in the woods, so you feel like you’re camping on your own too. The setup of the two bedrooms was enough for our family of 5, without needing the loft or extra bunks downstairs. The batting cage and ping pong table in the garage were a cool surprise, and the boys liked the outdoor shower too. We didn’t get cell service in the forest preserve, and the WiFi could be a little weak in some sections of the house, but that just helped with unplugging for the week! Would definitely stay here again and have recommended it to friends already.

The cabin truly exceeded all expectations. It was lovely, sizable, clean, and had a bonus “basement/man cave” area that our active family absolutely loved. Bikes, ping pong, a batting cage, etc etc etc, located a mile from the bike path to Glen Arbor and beyond. We and our adult kids loved it! Thanks for a great time!

Great property and good people. Perfect getaway in the woods and a short drive from anywhere you'd want to go while visiting.

The property was everything that we hoped for plus more. The accommodations were roomy and clean and the kitchen was well equipped. While we did not take advantage of the extras on the first floor, we did enjoy the fire circle, outdoor lighting, and nearby trails. Ted was very accommodating (we had a short power outage the first day, and he was very responsive and helpful).

Very nice cabin in the woods. Everything you could want is on site. I would highly recommend renting this beautiful house.

Home is off the beaten path but close to Glen Arbor and the Sleeping Bear Dunes Park. The home was perfect for our family of 4, the owner was responsive and good to work with and the location was ideal. Would not hesitate to recommend to others.
