Although we only had 3 adults, the home is large enough to accommodate many more, with three twin beds, two queens and a king on the second floor.One of our party is an avid runner and enjoyed long runs along the nearby vineyard roads. We were not far from Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes and spend a wonderful day hiking along the lake and on the dunes. ##### Kristen C. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy G.

It worked very well for our Lake Leelanau vacation.A few suggestions:1\. For wall switches of an unusual nature, such as the kitchen disposal, outside lights, where they are not obvious such as can't see the results, if a diagram or information was provided.2\. Instructions for better using the television. We could never get the provided controller for Spectrum to work.3\. There was a 'critter', probably a mouse, in the pantry. ##### John Z.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 1-week stay for 9 adults and one infant. We had a few surprises we weren't prepared for - large amount of stairs, also unusual layout (1 bedroom & 3 baths downstairs, 3 bedrooms and 1 bath upstairs). Views weren't so great because of the wildfire haze. Instructions on how to use appliances, etc. were not very good. Biggest negative, however, was the mice. We caught several, but they just kept coming. ##### Ken L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### William V.

Jul 17, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Interior was clean, comfortable and as described on VRBO. We were greatly disappointed in the overall exterior condition of property. Upon arrival, there were opened packs of shingles on stone wall, knee high weeds in most areas of livable exterior space and warped, lose deck boards that created hazards. In photos on site, the hot tub is shown on an outside deck area, when in reality it is located approximately 20 feet away from home in heavily wooded/weedy area without adequate or no exterior lighting. Our group was unable to enjoy hot tub due to unstable step and lack of lighting. Management was prompt in bringing us missing clothes hangers which we appreciated.If the exterior was given some "gentle" weed and exterior maintenance, we would have given this a 4/5 star review. The location of property is perfect - management response was amazing. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/88cf8c5b-5fef-457b-bcd6-8058e7f9e852-1752779391908.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![warped deck boards](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e1d9436a-1ad7-4365-a00c-d0ca42a36911-1752779410311.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Hot tub location](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d64d2ff-75aa-44ab-91c4-31f7cad11af0-1752779439099.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f9a405a9-7421-44a3-bcd9-469e386ae210-1752779464003.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### lisa d.

Reviewer Comments: The consensus of our extended family was that the house fit our needs and we enjoyed the log home uniqueness of it. The gathering rooms were large and the grandsons loved the foosball table and hot tub. The view is great in spots, but is in danger of growing trees,etc, infringing on the views.The charcoal grills had not been cleaned and were located in a weedy spot, so we did not do outdoor grilling.

Jun 29, 2019 #### Simply Lovely Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Took a quick visit to MI with three families. Home was lovely, view incredible, and the location is great. We really just wished we had a few more days to explore more of the beautiful Lake Michigan coast and towns. If I were to make any suggestion it would be to trim back some of plant/sprouting tree growth around the property to maximize the views even more. I made one call to the rental company and couldn't be more impressed with their professionalism. We would love to return to Viewtopia! ##### kim c.

The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Viewtopia is an incredible property was stunning views of Lake Michigan from almost every room in the house! We recently rented this house for a couples (4) getaway wine weekend. We appreciated the close proximity to downtown Leland and many wineries in the Leelanau peninsula. Unfortunately there were some key essentials missing from the property such as salt/pepper, dish soap and a wine opener. Other than the missing items we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend Viewtopia to anyone looking for a place to fit a large group with stunning views of the lake. Thank you UpNorth Vacation Rentals!

Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful home with great views over the lake. The inside of the home was very clean and comfortable. I was in a group of 4 couples that stayed there for a long weekend and went to several wineries. The outside of the house is due for some landscape work and step maintenance. I spent the first 30 minutes sweeping down spider webs on the outside of the house. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. ##### Chuck P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark H.

We loved the views and the secluded setting of the house. Everything in the house was clean and nicely set up for us. A few wasps did come into the one upstairs bedroom, so checking for those would be a good idea. Other than that we loved our stay and cannot wait to go back. ##### Marie C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### bruce r.

Reviewer Comments: 11 of us (4 adults, 6 kids 5-12 and one baby) stayed at Viewtopia for a week and had a great time exploring the region. The house worked great for our needs, and hosts were responsive to any questions or minor issues that came up. We would definitely stay again! It isn't lake front, but there are nice views, especially from the upstairs bedroom- and the lot is very private- it truly feels like a cottage. It is a short drive to a pretty sandy beach and a couple of hikes. Sleeping bear and Traverse city are each about 20-25 minutes away. ##### lesley f.
