Property details

Sleeping Bear Dunes, the peninsula's bike routes, and a golf course are all a short drive from The Birches — with downtown Lake Leelanau and the marina just 236 feet the other way. This is Up North living without leaving the village. Start the morning with the Chateau Chantal sparkling wine waiting in your kitchen, walk to Iron House Gym on the house, then spend the day however you like — wine tasting along the Leelanau Peninsula Wine Trail, browsing downtown, out on the water at the marina, or driving out to Sleeping Bear Dunes and the bike trails. Every part of Leelanau County, Michigan is just minutes from your door. The location alone means this stay feels less like a hotel room and more like the Lake Leelanau condo you wish you owned. Two bedrooms, two and a half baths, and real square footage to spread out in — a king suite, a second bedroom with two queens, and a sleeper sofa in the living area, so eight people can stay together without stacking on top of each other. The kitchen is stocked to actually cook a dinner, not just microwave one. In-unit laundry means you pack light and leave heavy. A private balcony and Smart TVs with your own streaming logins round out the space. Bahle Farms Golf Course is 6.6 miles, Sleeping Bear Dunes a 25-minute drive, and the Leelanau Peninsula's cycling and hiking routes start right outside. Downtown Lake Leelanau, Michigan is 236 feet from your door, with the public boat launch and marina a one-minute walk. NJ's Grocery is 318 feet away, Suttons Bay Beach is 4.5 miles, and Cherry Capital Airport, in Traverse City, is 25 minutes out. Sleeps 8 (adults and kids). Check-in 4 PM, check-out 11 AM, self-check-in by smart lock. Quiet hours 10 PM–8 AM and a strict no-party policy. No smoking indoors. Please note: each unit has two sets of stairs and no elevator access. Ready to make Leelanau County memories?

The location was great! Close to a brunch spot and wineries and a very easy drive to Sutton's Bay for a day of wandering, shopping, and tasting local eats!

The place was extremely clean and exactly as the pictures showed. Check in was easy and our stay was peaceful. Chris responded very quickly with any questions I had. The area was very peaceful with restaurants in walking distance. We will definitely be back!

Great place, true to description. Five star rating for the price we paid. No complaints, just one note for future renters (and this is only a preference thing). There are windows in the bedrooms that do not have coverings so the bedrooms are not completely dark as we're used to (black out curtains). Wish that was different but on the bright side the beds were super comfortable.
