We had a perfect week in Lake Leelanau!! This property is perfect! Just 3 minutes to a grocery store, 10 minutes to Suttons Bay and Leland ( for lots of beaches, shopping and restaurants)! The house has everything you need with games for indoors and outdoors, kayaks, a huge yard for kids to play, and a beautiful crystal clear lake!

Charming, cozy cottage

         

Review date: 2023-07-31

Review by
The house is charming with everything you would need. There are really only 2 bedrooms and an open loft that looks over the living room area. It was perfect for us but may pose an issue for light sleepers. Management company would not divulge address until right before arrival...since we had family in the area, we had wanted to know the exact location. Management company policy seemed unreasonable. That was our only complaint.

House was clean and convenient to everywhere on the peninsula. It was a little difficult to locate, but once found it was very comfortable. Good beds, everything we needed, games to play in and out,2 baths was very helpful, and the laundry would be great for a longer stay. We enjoyed the big yard, the lake, and kayaks. We were able to watch a pair of loons on the lake as we kayaked-very cool. The only difficult part was the loft didnt allow much privacy if someone wanted to retire early. It was comfortable for our sister getaway.

As Jimmie J. J. Walker would say - Dynamite!!!Weather was great - temps in the 70's (in 90's at home)Rental property incredible, second time at this location.Lake even better than we remembered.Six of us went, two of us in our 70's, three adult children and one teenage grand daughter. One of us old folks had to use a wheel chair, we were able to navigate the house and the yard down to the lake (with assistance).

Great place. The rental was very clean and provided all of the advertised amenities. The lake front provides great swimming with shallow clear waters and a sandy bottom. There is also a nice fire pit I never had the opportunity to use. The location is convenient being between Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes Park.

Marcia Lee Log Cabin is a comfortable, well-appointed vacation home in an exceptional setting. It is secluded and quiet, with a spacious backyard that goes straight onto a delightful section of Lake Leelanau. We enjoyed the outdoor BBQ, kayaks and nearby bicycle routes heading in every direction.

A perfect space for our group of 8 with plenty of room outside for the kids to run and play. We were delighted to find the house clean and well stocked with everything you could need. It was great to have a grill and plenty of outdoor seating. Easy access to kayaks made everything a breeze, especially when managing small kids. Remember to bring life jackets for adults and children, unfortunately we were ticketed for not having them.

Review by Marty E.
We had a wonderful week at the Marcia Lee Lake House. We have been going to Lake Leelanau since 2001 and have always stayed at the same beloved location. Our regular cottage was unavailable this year, so we booked the Marcia Lee. It exceeded our expectations in every way. The interior was lovely, clean and particularly well-stocked with everything we could need. The bed was comfortable and the living room furniture was great for reading, knitting, relaxing, and enjoying the view. The view over the lake from the beach/dock area was particular nice. And we LOVED the location. It was minutes from everything we like to do and from restaurants and wineries we love. Particularly nice was that the cottage is located on a section of M22 with a wide berm and limited traffic, so we could bicycle our of our cottage to Leland, Sutton’s Bay and Lake Leelanau without having to load the bikes in the car. A great rental home in a great location!

Beautiful log cabin interior, with plenty of space for guests. A well-equipped kitchen, and endless outdoor space. On the rainy days (though thankfully these were very rare) there are fun games to play indoors. On the sunnier days, the options outside are varied. Sunbathe in the lounge chairs, kayak on the lake or narrows, which are right around the corner (and three kayaks are provided), build a campfire at the fire pit near the lake, or stargaze on the lawn. Sunsets can also be breathtaking. Hosts live on the grounds, but we felt like we had the place to ourselves 99% of the time. There isn’t much to walk to, as the town is tiny. But it’s a short drive to Fishtown and also not too far from Suttons Bay. The garbage situation is hard to figure out, so make sure to ask someone ahead of time!

So where was this place 30 years ago when we started coming to this area of Michigan. We have eight kids and this would have been perfect for them as little kids - water less than 3 feet deep for about 100 yards - and clear. This year one of the grand daughters was with us and we didn't have to worry.

The home was beautiful.Clean and well maintained.The kitchen was well stocked, it had everything we needed to make our meals and it even had a panini maker!The water/beach is shallow, and would be great for kids to play. We had all adults. The fire pit near the waters edge made for a great nighttime bonfire and smores.We used the gas grill to prepare dinner and ate outside on the nice table, plenty of space for 8 of us.The owner is right next door, if needed. (We did not need anything).We had a great time. Thank you for opening up your home!

Ladies' Fun-in-the Sun Celebration

         

Review date: 2017-08-13

Review by
The accommodations are newly remodeled and updated. Very nice! There is a beach on the lake with a very large sand-packed shallow area, and a dock. Great kayaking area! There is also a nice patio wth plenty of seating. Our one item to note, however, is that it was not as secluded as we had believed. The cabin is actually attached to the main house, divided by a garage. The cabin is close to Lake Leelanau, Traverse City, Sutton's Bay, and Leland. Beautiful area!
