Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Stillwater sits on Mougey Lake in Omena, one of the quietest and most tucked-away villages on the Leelanau Peninsula. Omena Bay public access is a short walk from the cottage, giving you a second swim option with clear, shallow water and views across Grand Traverse Bay. The village is small but well-stocked for a slow morning or afternoon. Leelanau Cellars is right on the water with a waterfront tasting room and over 40 wines. Knot Just a Bar sits next door with a bay-view deck, good seafood, and flatbreads worth staying for. Tamarack Gallery represents 40-plus nationally known artists if you're in the mood to browse. Suttons Bay is a short drive south for more dining and shopping. Northport is a short drive north. Leland and historic Fishtown are easy from either direction. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is about 30 minutes west. Traverse City is 45 minutes south.

We loved the location and how the house had two living rooms and cozy spaces. One for TV people and one for non-TV people. The house was great for cooks, well appointed, and appreciated there was salt , olive oil, spices, etc.

We had a great stay in Stillwater. The house is beautiful and fit our family perfectly. We had everything we needed with plenty of space for everyone to relax. The boys spent time kayak fishing. Nothing caught but a couple nibbles. We spent the days visiting some of Michigan's best beaches and had some great dinners at local restaurants. Even spent a day down in Traverse City for brunch, putt-putt and local ice cream. Thanks!
