Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our third year staying at Leelanau Blue. It is everything we look for in a vacation rental. Most of all the view is spectacular. We vacation in October and are treated to a colorful display that gets better every day. Additionally, the location is perfect for the things we like to do, restaurants where we eat, groceries, wineries, etc. And for days when we just want to relax, knit, read cook and eat in, the cottage is perfect for that.

Great location; comfy house
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 3 humans and a dog had a great stay. The house was perfect for a group our size, and the location is convenient to everything up north. We swam, boated, read on the deck, watched the Olympics. The house had everything we needed -- dishes, kayaks, comfy seating indoors and out, fire pit, big yard -- except I didn't notice in the listing that there's no washer/dryer; wasn't an issue once we went shopping, but something to keep in mind when you pack.

Great place!
We loved staying at this little cottage. They did a great job on the remodel. Cute and cozy. Great view. All the furniture was very comfy. I would recommend bringing water shoes lake bottom more of a sand/clay mixture. Firepit was very nice. We had a great time.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect size for our family of 3 that stayed. Only drawback was no washer or dryer. Otherwise the house was nicely filled with kitchen gadgets and met all of our needs. It was a great location, especially if you want to hit the wineries. The back deck was perfect. My father has mobility issues and the single floor living was ideal.

Beautiful location
Beautiful quiet location. We can get here without traveling through the bustle of Traverse City. Property was clean and newly remodeled. We booked the property with the hopes of using the kayaks and doing some fishing on the lake however there was only one paddle remaining. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes and accessories.

Perfect Spot
The property was perfect for our family. Being right on the water was perfect for swimming, playing and paddle boarding. The location was central to all the local towns and sights. The home was recently renovated and they did everything right to make your time there enjoyable. Property management was very attentive and quick to help out. The property has plenty of privacy while still being connected to other neighboring properties. I highly recommend staying here, you will not be disappointed.

A Second Stay at Leelanau Blue

The cottage has everything we need for a comfortable, pleasing vacation. We come the first week in October and this year the weather was cold and rainy several days, but we stayed in the cottage and read, knitted and played games, all while enjoying the wonderful view. Writing this review reminds me that I need to book it for next year.

Little disappointed the county only allows 4 guests, but perfect for the guests I took this time. The location was great. No more than 15 minute drive to any attraction we wanted to visit. Will definately rent again.
