Great place, clean and well appointed. Everything you need is in the kitchen. Bathrooms are also well stocked and we appreciated the big box fans for nighttime (even though there is also A/C). The beach area is on the other side of the road but the road is rather quiet and the beach is lovely complete with SUPs, kayaks and a cute gazebo with furniture. It was nice and relaxing for our family.
We wanted a quiet relaxing place to land in between wineries and shopping. It was absolutely perfect and the hostâs communication was great! We only wish the weather wouldâve been nicer for us to take advantage of the beautiful private beach! We would most definitely stay again
We loved our stay here. The house was extremely clean, the beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The grill on the beach as fun and the views were amazing. We all loved the hot tub and sauna.
This little gem is such a peaceful & friendly neighborhood. The view of the cove is simply stellar! And centrally located to make it to all the spots you want in minutes! Aaron is a wonderful host - if he is on the property he is very respectful of your privacy & promptly responsive to any questions or needs you may have.We walked the neighborhood - lounged on the beach - soaked in the hot tub - rejuvenated in the steam barrel - had amazing breakfast @ 9 Beans every day - drove M22 loop & hit all the beautiful vineyards - had amazing food - simply had a wonderful time
Everything from checking in to checking out was perfect. The house had everything we needed. It was in a great location and felt like we were tucked out of the way, in the woods, with a beautiful view of the lake! We also werenât that far from shops and great restaurants. We had a nice long relaxing weekend and enjoyed the peaceful location! Thank you for letting us stay!
The place is NOT as pictured. There are the owners living above in the attached garage- no privacy shade (as owner states). The house is across the street from the lake and does not back up to the lake. The outdoor is dirty and unwelcome. The largest issue the awful smell inside. We literally walked in and left and booked another place.
Love North Shore Cherry Cove was a perfect place for our getaway. Location is great for exploring the Leelanau peninsula. Traverse city is only 15 minutes south. Aaron is a gracious host. Your privacy is his priority. The home is spacious, clean, and filled with all the little touches that welcome you in. You truly feel right at home. The beach is very nice. We had a great fire and enjoyed the new gazebo. Hot tub was wonderful after our daily outings. We did not use the sauna but plan to during our next stay. Thank you Aaron!
The host was very helpful and responsive. The place is quiet and beautiful. Bed mattresses are in need of an update same as pillows. In general we had a great time. We even made a snowman
The location was perfect with a beautiful view of the bay from the living room and kitchen. We enjoyed relaxing and playing games in front of the fireplace and were even more excited to soak in the hot tub on the cold winter nights. We were able to make our own dinners and breakfasts easily in the kitchen because it was stocked with every item we needed. We would definitely come back again!
The snow was piled up and we were nice and cozy inside our getaway. The hot tub was wonderful as we gazed up at the stars and watched the falling snow drape the trees in the forest behind the home. The view out the front was of the partially frozen Lake Michigan. The perfect getaway!!
Enjoyed our stay. Nice and quiet in the winter vs. summer Iâm sure. But thatâs exactly what we were looking for. Thanks, Aaron. Cheers! Rich & Victoria
I grew up in metro Detroit, downriver. Graduating from the University of Michigan, and worked with the airlines for 30 years. My time is divided between Traverse city, and metro Detroit. You may find me working on the property, or packing for my next trip, as i am always on the go! I love kayaking, hiking and learning, with a special devotion to yoga.
West Grand Traverse Bay is a very powerful body of water. South Lee Point Road holds an energy of welcoming comfort and calm peaceful serenity. The property is surrounded by mature forest of cedar and oak. The crystal clear stream flows year round spilling into the bay, providing a cool aliveness of fresh woodsy wilderness. The cottage is tucked back into the shade of the trees, while the white sandy beach rests in full sun all day.
The view from both the family room and kitchen are so amazing! As the trees are as much of the experience as the bay itself. Other benefits include: use of the gazebo, dock , kayaks , and paddle boards.
