Cozy cottage with private pond. Close to the casino and the Bay.

On Belanger Pond is a super charming cottage in a storybook-like setting. The cottage is located north of Suttons Bay and sits right on a large pond. It sleeps 6 with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.

There is a bedroom on the main floor, and the upper bedroom is a loft area. There is a cozy living room off the kitchen and a large enclosed porch faces south over the pond. Mornings are beautiful sitting out here.

Make sure you bring your camera to this magical spot with gorgeous landscaping and a serene setting. Enjoy a fire in the provided fire pit. There is a charcoal grill for any outdoor cooking you might have planned.

This is a great location to enjoy all of the Leelanau County attractions. Stop at some of the wineries, Leelanau Sands Casino, the vintage Bay Theater, or one of the great local restaurants. The house is 20 miles from Traverse City.

Great cozy cottage vibes

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We attended a concert at Leelanau Sands and this cottage was an excellent alternative to staying at the lodge there. It’s a very short drive and could even be walked in the warmer months. We absolutely loved the sunroom and watching the birds on the pond. We also enjoyed shopping and dining in Suttons Bay which is just a few minutes away. The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. The only downside was the small driveway but we managed with a small suv and full size truck. I would definitely stay again!

Serene little cottage

This was a lovely little stay. The cottage is charming and cozy. The pond out side is beautiful and serene. It is directly on a busy road as some reviews mention, but being this far out there's not much traffic at night.

Very cute historical stay

While we were there on a very hot weekend we were able to keep the house cool with the fans at night. Being from Western North Carolina my husband and I were able to adapt however, I would probably suggest that anyone with less of a heat tolerance be sure and check the weather for your stay! The property is adorable, private, and comfortable.

Family visit to meet in Leelanau

The cottage was just as described. It was delightful little place to stay at. The attic rooms are toasty so dress accordingly. It was nice to sit beside the pond with the ducks, frogs and wildlife and have your morning coffee.
