Spacious home in Omena. Pet friendly. Short walk to beach.

A delightful location in the historic village of Omena, Lavender Lane is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home that welcomes up to 8 guests. It is immediately across the street from 140’ of beautiful private beach. Offering comfortable lodging and room to spread out, the cozy living room overlooks Omena Bay. Cable TV and Wi-Fi are provided. The kitchen is spacious and nicely appointed with all updated appliances, including a dishwasher. There is also a washer and dryer.

One bedroom is located on the main level and 3 bedrooms are on the upper level; the bedrooms provide 1 king bed, 2 queen beds, 1 twin, and a trundle. All bed linens and towels are included. There are ceiling fans in the bedrooms and window air conditioners in some rooms too. There is 1 in an upstairs bedroom, 1 in the dining room, and 1 in the lower bedroom.

The wonderful beach is where you can enjoy sunshine-filled days and fireside fun at night. In addition to a side deck, a small courtyard with a patio behind the house offers a nice private spot to grill and unwind. The house is within walking distance of Knot Just A Bar for beautiful and rare waterfront dining; the Leelanau Peninsula Winery Tasting Room, Tamarack Gallery (a Midwest premier gallery), and the local corner convenience store. Lavender Lane is sure to delight everyone.

Omena is halfway between Suttons Bay and Northport – either is just 6 miles away. The charming town of Leland is 11 miles away and Sleeping Bear Dunes is less than an hour's distance. These nearby small towns offer shopping, art galleries, museums, a movie theater, dining, breweries, and wineries. Leelanau Sands Casino is about 2.5 miles south. There are miles of hiking trails throughout the county. You can enjoy farm markets in Suttons Bay, Northport, and Leland. One well-mannered dog is welcome, and owners must clean up after their pets.

This home is located minutes from the village of Northport. Suttons Bay is an easy 10-minute drive south.

Great location with easy access to Lake Michigan
Our group of 6 had an enjoyable stay. The extra-clean and neat landscaping of the property made all the difference. The beach front was very nice, but would have benefited from some sun protection (umbrella or cover on the lakeside platform.

Location is mostly great but does approximate a busy daytime road and must cross a fairly busy smaller road to get to the beach front.

Great place to stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at Lavender Lane! The house is clean, stocked with essentials and in a great location. It was a perfect house for a girl friends getaway. The management company was also great and communicated every step of the way. We needed to get a hold of them at check in and we immediately got an answer.

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: The best stay in Omena -- RIGHT on Omena Bay. The house is gorgeous and spacious -- lots of great amenities inside including washer/dryer. Private beach across the street with loungers and chairs and fire pit. Beds and bedding were very comfortable and a great surprise was the AC window units in every room keeping everything cool especially for sleep. Wi-Fi was very strong! Will 100% be back and will tell friends about Lavender Lane!

Amazing House with a Beautiful View!!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lavender Lane was amazing and perfect for our Girl's Getaway! The house was great, very clean, spacious and had everything we needed. We also loved the private beach and spent a lot of time down by the water enjoying the view. The location is perfect and is just a short drive from Sutton's Bay or up to Northport (also the drive up from downtown is beautiful).

Wonderful week at Lavender Lane
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: This was our second year staying at Lavender Lane and it was again excellent. We appreciated the updated bathroom vanities and 2d floor flooring and the house was very clean when we arrived. The location is convenient for us and we very much enjoyed sitting on the front porch or private beach with our morning coffee or to watch the moon over beautiful Omena Bay. So nice to return to an area we have known and loved for years.

Beautiful Private Beach
Overall it was absolutely wonderful and we would consider returning to the same place. The only two negatives we found was 1. The bar-b-que grill was filthy. So much so that we decided not to use it at all. 2. We had a lot of " bug issues". We are seasoned campers so in general they do not bother us. we were killing up to a dozen or more roaches, stink bugs, silverfush etc. each and every day. I realize that is a challenge when.close to water. I would recommend a regular visit from a bug man furing rental season.

Double 5's for this rental
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: There are two aspects in renting. One is the home and the other is the agency handling the property. The pictures of the home really don't show how nice the property is. Everything is well thought out in creating a nice space from the floors, appliances, furniture and decorations. I have stayed in many rentals and this is definitely at the top, thus the 5 rating. The rental agency on a 1 to 5 rating gets a 5++++ in my book. Initially they were quick to respond to a question. In all the years I have done VRBO's I Have never had an agent call me to see if all is okay. This agency called me twice and emailed me several times to make sure all is okay. Kudo's to them. They have set a very high bar.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check in to a house that was not very clean. Dog hair all over couch. Went up to master bedroom to a pee smell. Bed was wet with animal pee. Was told new bedding would be brought out next day WHAT. Ended up getting bedding in bag delivered to house by office. No follow up from management facility no apology nothing. You g girl from office helped change out bedding when she delivered it. Spider webs over kitchen table. Would not recommend till they get new management company and new cleaning crew. Location was great. House was perfect size for our family visit.

Enjoyable Stay
We enjoyed our stay at Lavender Lane. The house was very nice. The location was great. Beach and amenities at the beach (deck, chairs, fire pit) were wonderful. A few things to improve. Each bedroom should have a ceiling fan. One disappointment. Right away (on Friday morning) we reported a significant gas smell in the water heater room. The only response was that it had been checked recently and to open the window. We were VERY disappointed that no one came to fix this issue.

Lavender Lane stay
Lavender Lane was very nice. Its location worked very well for us as we wanted to be near family. Check in was easy and the staff was very helpful with an advance check-in call. The house was clean and cheerful with a lovely view of the bay. I would only suggest that the fourth bedroom would be most appropriate for small children as it is quite small with a single trundle bed.

Nice, we all enjoyed being on and out. I do think there are some issues with electrical. Old house some things ha updated but not everything. Hair dryers an issue. Power goes off. Bottom line we enjoyed our stay and plan to be back. 6 miles from SB awesome.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice location in the quiet town of Omena with a private beach just across the street. The house was clean and the kitchen well equipped. It was nice to walk down to Knot your Bar for a fish kone, as well as to visit the Leelanau tasting room. My dog and I enjoyed walking along the quiet road along Lake Michigan both morning and evening. The club chairs in the living room were quite comfortable and the view from the living room was wonderful. We enjoyed a campfire at the private beach one evening although the fire pit is nearing the end of its life.
