Keep it simple in this traditional cottage lovingly called The Urbane Daffodil. This lovely cottage is right across the street from The Glen Lake Community Library and within walking distance to the Empire beach, area shops, the ever-famous Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate, and Tiffany’s Ice Cream, so you will have plenty to do right here in Empire. There are also lovely scenic drives to take while visiting our quaint Leelanau County. The space This cottage has been in the Urbane family since the early 1950s and has been filled with love ever since! The bedrooms are comfy and each has a queen or full bed (suitable for two guests) and at least one single. As a family cottage, our goal was to sleep as many people in comfy beds as possible, privacy wasn’t always the first goal. Please be mindful of the stairs as they are steep. There is a handrail to help in going up and down so please use it! Enjoy the backyard with your family and dogs, but please be aware that skunk and porcupines do tend to visit. Make sure your pets don’t get skunked or “pined” during your visit. Guest access When you arrive we’ll make sure to have front and back doors open for easy access. The backyard is fenced in if you have dogs as part of your family, and we’ll provide a key to lock up when you decide to tour the surrounding areas. Other things to note We do ask for a 6 person max in our cottage. The village of Empire is still on individual septic systems, so this is why we are very strict with some rules. Nothing more than toilet paper down toilets and please no food down kitchen sink. We provide dish pan for washing dishes and toilet paper and are right next door if anything goes wrong. Please don’t hesitate to call should you need us.
