Check-in process was breeze and I received great communication beforehand. The property photos were as advertised. The location of the property is close to most things and right on the lake.The cleanliness of the property needed a bit more care. We found broken glass, beer cans, a few rotting animal carcasses, and a few other trash items along the lakeshore and it smelled like rotting fish near the water the majority of our stay. The management company responded to our concerns quickly, however, it did take full day to fix the situation (we were only there 2 days). They stated that it was hard to find someone to come out on the weekend (we were there on a Thursday). But, they eventually did fix it. I’d say the location of this place is great, easy instructions, great lakefront but the management company could work on some of the kinks (perhaps checking the outside cleanliness of the property along with the inside) to make it easily a 5/5 property.

This nice house has mice.
We saw and had to catch and dispose of a mouse in the living room during our stay. Even though after this happened, we discovered mouse traps/poison in several places on the property. And when we called the host, they told us they would drop off some traps and peanut butter. Which we didn't believe was a very professional way to handle the situation. Neither was their unwillingness to provide a fair refund of our money, even with assistance from Vrbo.

Very special location on the lake
Somewhat small lake cottage with outstanding location. Small beach good for swimming, grassy "pier", screened porch, gas grill, ample lawn with picnic table, fire pit for s'mores...Near interesting spots to explore. Gorgeous old willow tree! Beautiful sunsets on the lake...

Great location while also at GLEF
We chose to stay here while our 12yr old was horse showing at Flint Fields. It was a bit of a drive but not unreasonable. Kept our youngest happy because she hates going to horse shows. We also have family on north lake Leelanau so it made it convenient. House is clean, comfortable. Not fancy. Honestly, reminded me of going to my grandparents lake cottage when I was a kid. Was like a trip down memory lane.
