The stunning new kitchen features gas cooking and new appliances, perfect for cooking and entertaining. The spacious, brand-new bathroom boasts a luxurious walk-in shower and soaking tub for ultimate relaxation.

Smart TVs, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a cozy gas fireplace ensure your comfort. Don’t miss the screened-in porch—it’s the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the surroundings!

The space
Nestled in a peaceful meadow surrounded by woods and farmland along Alpers Rd., this home offers a serene escape no matter the season. Just a short 10-minute walk down the road, Lake Leelanau awaits, with a gentle incline that reveals breathtaking views—especially on quiet summer mornings.

This modern home features two bedrooms: one with a queen bed and the other with a queen bed and a twin bunk, making it ideal for two couples or a family of 4 to 5. The heart of the home is the spacious screened-in porch, perfect for enjoying warm summer evenings. When the weather cools, drop the porch sides to stay cozy, whether you’re visiting in early spring or late fall, or mid winter.

Nearby public parks and lake access provide endless opportunities for outdoor fun, while the tranquil surroundings make it equally perfect for relaxing indoors. Linens, towels, some paper products, and soaps are included for your convenience. Please note: no smoking is allowed.

This is the perfect retreat to unwind, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of Lake Leelanau, all year round.
