We spent an enjoyable week at the cozy Marcia Lee Log Cabin. The lake was beautiful (just across the yard) and would have been perfect for a swim if we had chosen to do so. The cabin was in a wonderful location in the middle of several small towns and lighthouses for day trips. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was provisioned with much of what we needed to make our meals. The rooms and bathrooms are smaller than they appear in photos. Fans were helpful for keeping bedrooms from getting stuffy even though our stay was at the end of September. And the kitchen window had to be open whenever we cooked for the same reason. I recommend this cabin for close family gatherings. It’s a quiet, relaxing place to stay but still close to many of the locations which make the area popular.

We loved this cottage. It has great amenities, especially the outdoor area, from the patio furniture and shower to the fire pit and Adirondack chairs nearer to the lake. The swimming is fantastic, the beds are comfy, and the week was wonderful. Highly recommend, and will return. Thank you!

Great Lake area

We booked this last minute and we were so glad we did. Easy day trips to Suttons Bay, Leland and Sleeping Bear Dunes. The lake by the house was world’s largest kiddie pool…clear water, great for kids, great for swimming and we loved the kayaks and beautiful sunsets. House was well stocked (minus a hairdryer) and we had a wonderful trip! There were 5 of us and it was a perfect size!

Our family of four had a lovely time at this cute,very clean property .It was close to so much & the sunsets were amazing! The house had everything we needed & my kids enjoyed having their own rooms. Some instructions on how to work the tv would be nice. It took my tech savvy husband a little while to figure it out! We really enjoyed our trip to Michigan and our stay in this cute house.

We love Lake Leelanau!

We’ve stayed on this lake five or six times, and we always love it! The house was lovely, and very clean. We loved the close access to the lake—you get both sunset & sunrise, if you want. Our only concerns were directions about TV use, and figuring out the thermostat, which we conveyed to the management company. I would recommend this house, and DEFINITELY stay there again! It was close to everything we wanted!

It was a rough week.

Because the property is SO OPEN, it meant that there was nowhere to go to "get away" from everyone else. All of the beds are full size, which I think were meant to fit 2 people each, but that did not work for us. So when it was raining, like for 2 days straight, we felt like we were going nuts trying to share this space together. It was so loud! We felt "boxed in". It just ended up being a really rough week for our family and the house definitely contributed to that. The property is great! But it should be advertised as being a VERY open space, and it was "comfortable" for 5 adults, not 7, or even 8, as advertised.

Great location

Great place to stay, awesome lication with great views. We had a small sailboat and rented a pontoon for the week and were able to dock the pontoon and tie the sailboat up to the mooring bouy. Only minor little thing would be the beds. One is a queen the others are fulls so not much room for two. We had 5 kids and three adults and used the sofa's with an air mattress we brought. Overall a great place and perfect location

50th birthday wknd

We booked the Marcia Lee Lake House to celebrate my & a good friend’s 50th birthdays. The combined TC/Leelanau/Old Mission area is one of my favorite places on Earth, so I wanted to bring my sis & some of my best pals — who had not visited the area before— up to celebrate a big milestone. Per usual, the trip did not disappoint & the Marcia Lee Lake House was an excellent home base. The location is great & the property is beautiful! We loved just walking through the backyard to the lake to soak up the beautiful sunsets. We also used the provided kayaks & built a fire in the fire pit. The house itself is airy & open & well appointed with an ample kitchen, nice bedrooms & a roomy loft. The house is attached to the owners’ home, but there is no shared wall as a garage separates the two homes. Can be a little tricky to find; follow the small wooden “Marcia Lee Lake House” signs & turn left onto a shared drive when you see the small, vertical green “6541” sign. You’ll then wind around to the large shared property & “your” cabin will be the farthest of the two. Again, we really enjoyed our time there & would book again.

Convenient, very clean

Everything we needed. Beautiful outdoor area by the lake. Kayaked and enjoyed the neighborhood loons. Comfortable beds and very clean. It was difficult to locate, but we enjoyed the stay. The only thing we would have liked was a bit more private area for sitting. Loft is open to the living area so difficult if not everyone has the same sleep schedule.

Annual family vacation in lake Leelanau

A very nice week. Accommodations were very clean and well-cared for. Good location on south side of north lake Leelanau. Convenient to grocery store and gas station . Short distance to Leland and Sutton’s bay. Yard was great for picnic and games. Plenty of chairs for relaxing. Firepit at lakeside with wood was a very nice touch. We rented a pontoon boat for the week. Very shallow around dock which makes it a bit tricky but it was just a short boat ride to “the drop off” (sandbar). Would love to stay again.

This was our second year in a row staying at Marcia Lee. We lake hopped for a few years prior (Torch, Crystal, Glen) and finally found our favorite cottage and lake! We enjoy taking the boat up to Leland and staying near the narrows is absolutely perfect for kayaking up to Boathouse winery and paddle boarding. Beautiful property and wonderful place all around! Will be back in 2021!

Marcia Lee Lake House

We have been coming to Lake Leelanau in the fall since 2001, and have generally stayed at the same property. However it changed hands last year and was no longer available, so we had to find a new place. The Marcia Lee Lake House was a fabulous replacement for our regular rental. It is a beautiful property, both the home and the setting. It appeared to have been recently renovated and was spotlessly clean and everything was in good working order. The bed was comfy, and the kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. The living room furniture was comfortable and the lighting is excellent for reading, knitting, etc. It was convenient to have a washer and dryer. The view from the beach area was gorgeous. But best of all was the location. It was centrally located for everything we love to do. From wineries to restaurants, to knitting stores and groceries, we were minutes from everything. Best of all, the property is located on a quiet part of M-22 and we were able to hop on our bikes and bike to Leland, the Village of Lake Leelanau and Sutton’s Bay. It was great not to have to haul the bikes in the car to ride. Loved the property and we had a perfect vacation!
