In-Town Leland OPEN WINTER SEASON Ski Season! Near XC Ski Breweries

The Bluestone Cottage is within walking distance to Lake Michigan beaches and to the town of Leland with great restaurants, cafes, galleries, shopping and Historic Fishtown! The stylish, comfortable house is ideal for wine tasting weekends and vacations for exploring Leelanau County as we are right on the wine trail. Head to Verterra, Chateau Fontaine, Boathouse, Aurora, 45 North and Black Star Farm all within minutes! Great layout for a big group with 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms.
Cozy Fireplace in Master Bedroom.
So grateful to have received so many lovely 5 STAR reviews this year:
“So much space for a gathering of friends and family! We could walk into Leland and shop, wine taste and eat and then walk back to sit and play games or enjoy the setting. We loved it” and “House is great. A fantastic location in Leland. We walked downtown to dinner every night. The beach is on the way, so we stopped for the sunset. The house is very clean and well stocked. Beds are comfortable. We couldn't have asked for anything else. Melissa is super helpful with information about the area in advance and sends prompt emails with everything about check-in and leaving. We would love to stay here again”

There’s so much to do up north! I’ll send our favorite hiking and biking trails, wineries, breweries and best local restaurants.

Lovely House, Great Location!
We were very happy with our stay at this property, the location to town and the beach was perfect and the house was very clean and well stocked. Owner was very responsive when we had a question, too. The only tiny thing to note as there is some road noise as it is on a main street (as reflected in the address, haha!) and the second room with two twins is directly connected to the master, so may not be ideal if privacy is needed for those sharing those rooms. Other than that 10 out of 10, exceeded our expectations and we would happily stay here again! Thank you to the amazing host!

A great getaway
From booking to check-out, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The cottage was a great home away from home for the long weekend for our group of ten. No fuss, no frills, but everything you need to simply enjoy your vacation. Having downtown Leland and two public beaches within walking distance allowed for everyone to make of their vacation ion as they wished. Would recommend the Bluestone Cottage as your next stay when visiting the Leelanau Peninsula!

A Great Time!
3 generations recently stayed at Bluestone Cottage. There was plenty of space for sleeping, eating and enjoying a game or movie. The kitchen was well stocked. The house is within easy walking distance to a public, but not very well known, beach and the cute town of Leland. It was great to leave the car and be able to walk everywhere. The Leland Library also offered a fun music program that we checked out. Melissa was great about communicating with me and answered the couple questions I had quickly. We especially enjoyed venturing out to the Farm Club and Hop Lot restaurants. Already considering booking Bluestone for next year!

Great family vacation weekend!
We enjoyed our stay at the Bluestone Cottage in Leland. The space is very comfortable with three separate areas for the three groups of our family. The beds were comfortable, and the space was very accommodating. Well, equipped kitchen. Nice front porch for watching the world go by. Very short walk to North Beach. The little girls enjoyed using their scooters to get there on a very non-busy back road. Excellent communication beforehand made our arrival smooth and seamless. Plenty to see and do around the area. Highly recommended!

This is a great property. There is plenty of space to stretch out. Kitchen was stocked, linens were plentiful and soft. We love to sit of the back deck, around the gas fire pit and listen to the water crash on the shore. It was a little chilly but exactly what our group needed. If I had any suggestions it would be to post a diagram of the houses layout in the ad. The bedroom's are a bit of different lay out, it would be help before hand. Thank you for letting us stay.

Suttons Bay Wine Tasting and Hiking Tour
A close friend group of 10 (mid-60s) needed a place to stay for a weekend of hiking (snowshoeing cancelled due to warm weather) through wine country. We needed a clean place that provided a room for each couple, kitchen and dining area that could accommodate the whole group, and casual area in which we could all sit. We also wanted to be able to walk to restaurants and shops. This home had it all. Very clean with comfortable bedrooms, kitchen, eating area, and casual area handled an in-house dinner, breakfasts, and great card games with all 10 around the kitchen table. The three bathrooms were clean, great showers, and plenty of hot water and water pressure. While the home is not “spacious” it is very comfortable and fully met our needs. The owner, Melissa, answered questions before our stay and provided great recommendations for eating, hiking, and enjoyment around the peninsula. Our Friday evening started with a great meal at Riverside Inn (walkable) in Leland in a dining area that accommodated all ten of us that set the perfect mood for the weekend. If we return to Leelenau Peninsula this home will be on our list for rentals.

This is based on having rented VRBO properties through out the US in excess of 50 times. Everything was fine except for 2 concerns. We felt the photos portrayed in the posting did not accurately reflect reality in layout size and external scene. Also, and this is no reflection on you ,but the bathroom facilities on the main floor were not senior citizen friendly. Our fault for getting old.
