About this property

Fountain Point - Mt. Auburn

First established in 1889, Fountain Point is a timeless American summer resort located on the shores of Lake Leelanau in Northern Michigan. We have 19 family-style cottages and a 14 bedroom hotel. The hotel includes a sweeping front porch that offers shaded lakeside views, as well as a parlor game room with activities for guests to borrow. There are no TVs, no air conditioning, and very limited WiFi. If you are looking for a place to truly unplug and unwind with your family and friends, you will find it here.
Mt. Auburn has a direct view of beautiful Lake Leelanau. It is a four bedroom, two bath cottage with one queen bedroom, two king bedrooms, and a bedroom with three twin beds. There is a large sitting area and full kitchen in the middle of the cottage, which opens onto a large screened-in porch facing the lake. Mt. Auburn sleeps 8-9, and has its own gas grill, picnic table, and chaise lounges outside.

The historical aspect and property arrangement was quaint. Central location is very convenient. Being right on the lake was nice, as was the use of the kayaks and paddle boards. The goose poop on the vast lawn between the cottage and lake does require you to be very careful where you walk. We were a group of 8 friends, so appreciated having the option of all beds arranged as singles. Our coffee maker wasn't working correctly. and they brought us a brand new one within a few hours. The bathrooms could use some updating and the showers didn't drain well. The window A/C units on each side of the house kept the bedrooms cool, but the kitchen/living room in the center were uncomfortable in July. If I came with a smaller group, I'd probably stay in the hotel, but the cabin was great for a large group.
