Lake side house rentals in Lake Leelanau

Wow — this was maybe the best AirBnB experience that I’ve had. Monica has done such a wonderful job with this cabin. It was pristine, peaceful, and in the most beautiful location. The cabin itself was exceptionally comfortable with everything we needed for comfort. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials and cooking utensils, with a great grill outside — we used it for most meals! The porch was almost with the entire value of the place itself, a perfect spot to sit and relax and enjoy the day. My dog was in LOVE with her surroundings, and we enjoyed many a walk down the long grassy lawn to the water where she swam and laid out in the sun on the dock (plus was put into a kayak successfully for the first time with moderate success!). Monica was an incredible host who has quite literally thought of everything to make the stay perfect. We hope to stay again in the future!

We loved our stay! The listing was exceptionally clean and amenities were as described. We enjoyed the location and having a coffee shop and (delicious) burger joint in walkable distance was a great bonus! The view of the beach and water right off the private balcony was wonderful and having a heated pool/hot tub combo right on property made this an ideal booking for our family. We’d come back and would recommend to others!

We cannot say enough good things about your stay & Beth! My family was in town for our wedding & Beth was more than accommodating with early check in so we could get things going! While I had a busy weekend as the bride, Beth sent multiple messages checking in on us & letting us know if we needed anything to just reach out! Even my mother mentioned how amazing that the home had everything stocked & we didn’t need to bring a thing! Something that not every Airbnb offers. The home looked right out at the water, it was updated and such stunning features, lots of spacious areas & rooms, and truly the perfect place to reset during a busy weekend! We hope to stay with Beth at this stunning home again on our next trip to Traverse!

We enjoyed our stay at sunrise landing, our suite was very clean and thoughtfully put together. Dan was communicative and helpful. The kayak rental was reasonably priced and a lot of fun for my child. Would absolutely recommend staying here!

Everything was very, very nice. Would choose it again for sure

The house was spacious and perfect for our family needs. There are places to park in the front and further down the hill, and the convenience of entering on the lower level. The lower level bedrooms can get chilly in the winter months but easily managed with a few extra blankets. Great communication and a thoughtful welcome with fresh bakery bread and jam. The location was perfect for our needs and we all agreed that we would stay at this Airbnb in the future!

Lovely stay! Close and convenient to town and other fun spots. Super clean. Definitely recommend!

We would definitely stay here again. The house was clean, well stocked, spacious and it smelled great. It is close to Sutton’s Bay for restaurants and vineries. We particularly loved the private beach. Even though the temperature was in the 50’s, it was so restful to sit and take in the view.

The place is adorable and peaceful. The decor is cottage cute! Being able to walk out the back door to Lake Michigan for a bonfire every night was amazing!!! Three chairs are set up by the big window with sweeping lake views to chill in the evenings. Just be aware the place is smallish and no dishwasher so I would keep it below 6 people, but it worked out great for the two of us on our anniversary. It was romantic and a super pick!!! You will not be disappointed. We were pleasantly surprised!!! :)

Host was super quick to responds and sent a ton of info of things to do in the area. A very nice, peaceful time on the lake.

House location was 12/10. Couldn’t have asked for a better home base. Walking distance to trails and sits right on the lake. Kids loved playing in and on the water with the kayaks provided. Would highly recommend the home to family and friends and would stay here anytime our family returns to the area. House was as advertised and Joe was very responsive and offered local trails and areas to eat.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful lake house! The views were absolutely stunning. The house itself was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The host was friendly, responsive, and made check-in a breeze. You can tell a lot of care has gone into this home. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a serene, scenic escape. We’d definitely love to come back!

Thank you for welcoming us into your home, Yoav! The Box Haus is a beautiful place to stay while enjoying Leland. Beyond being wonderfully designed, the home was very comfortable and had available kitchen supplies for those interested in cooking and amenities. Yoav was very accommodating and responsive and brought an iron and ironing board quickly when requested. We were here for a wedding and had a great time thanks to the Box Haus

We were impressed by the comfort and welcome of the little red cabin. The hosts were wonderful, amenities plentiful and the cabin was cozy. We very much enjoyed the fire pit and the rocking Adirondack chairs. The outdoor space allowed us to soak up the sun and gain a quiet break from the city life. Easy to drive around this area + we really enjoyed our time spent at the cabin cooking meals and spending time with our dog (it was so amazing that there were bowls there for him). The location was perfect for us. We look forward to returning for another future visit.

Melanie and Jon are great hosts, super communicative. I came in the winter and was unable to see a lot of the surroundings. It feels like a historical experience due to the old-time layout and size, but has a really nice covered area in the back yard to have a coffee and relax or watch the snow. Deer jumped the fence and walked through several times per week. Just about the time I left, the snow had melted and one can see that it is a beautiful yard and area in warmer months with superior walkability to everything. It is not one of those fancy places with all kinds of bells and whistles. The Water Drop is a cozy, safe and warm little cottage that gives a vibe that stays with you and makes it hard to leave. Really cool place.

Carolyn was an incredible host. The home was absolutely beautiful. We stayed for my father’s 70th birthday and the lovely lake and spacious home was perfect for all the kids and grandkids.Carolyn was attentive and kind and even brought us a pack and play last minute!!! Highly recommend and we will probably book again for a northern Michigan vacation!

If you are looking to stay anywhere near this area, I highly recommend staying here. What a peaceful, unique experience. I was worried at first about the different amenities, like the outdoor shower and driving back on someone else's property, but was pleasantly surprised at how well instructions were put out and how quickly I felt at home. 10/10 recommend. Also the alpacas and donkeys are a huge plus ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at Lori’s Airbnb! The space was small but absolutely perfect for us and our dog—it had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short drive to both Lake Leelanau and Suttons Bay, which made exploring the area so easy and enjoyable. We were celebrating our anniversary, and Lori went above and beyond by leaving us two bottles of wine to help us celebrate—such a thoughtful touch! She was also fantastic with communication and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. This was truly a special trip, and Lori’s place played a big part in that. We’d definitely come back and stay here again. Highly recommend!

Incredible camp! It feels “rustic luxury” might be the most apt descriptor for Driftwood Camp. The camp itself has everything you need plus an abundance of nature m, privacy, and charm. I booked this a few months ago, invited some friends, and hoped it was as awesome as it seemed. It exceeded all our expectations. My only regret is not being able to stay longer.! We’ll definitely be back. (Oh, and for any folks who book a visit and are worried about a forecast of cooler temps with the open air cabins: We packed extra blankets and slept very comfortably with temps in the low 40s!)

The house was really nice, clean and comfortable. The setting was peaceful and quiet. It was easy to walk on the street. We had a couple of questions and David and Nicole were extremely responsive and very helpful. I would definitely stay there again.

The space was so cozy and perfect for our weekend. Ansel was quick to reply with questions and very friendly. Would definitely stay here again!!

Jim and Manie were so fun to meet, and the place was incredibly cozy and super clean! Lots of attention was clearly paid to the little details inside the space and making it a comfortable stay. It was also an easy drive from the property to local attractions.

This is the 2nd time I've stayed here. Great location, clean and quiet I'd stay again!

Jason’s studio was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, well equipped, and conveniently located to all the area has to offer. Highly recommended!
