We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house in Suttons Bay! Besides a great location, the comfort of the house and the owner’s attention to detail made our stay so much more enjoyable. Everything was immaculately clean and if we were going to cook there (we had already made other plans to dine out) everything you could think of was already there in the kitchen for use. This was a “fall colors” trip for us, and we hope to return next year maybe during Spring or Summer. Besides the perfectly comfortable house, just a few minutes away to downtown Suttons Bay and super close to our favorite area wineries. Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent Up North getaway close to everything around Leelanau

A comfortable and cozy place to get away up north. Perfect for two couples to hang out. Super close to everything in Sutton's Bay, which we loved. Had a nice secluded back yard with a fire pit to enjoy in the evenings. The property was supremely clean and the best maintained of any vacation rental I've ever experienced.

A great place to stay.

We brought our dog for a short stay as we traveled thru Michigan. This is exactly as advertised and perfect for us in every way. Bike trail, beach, wineries, and breweries all close and easily accessible with downtown Suttons Bay a short bike ride away too. The accommodating were perfect and very comfortable with great outdoor space to relax as well. We loved it and will definitely stay again on our next visit to the area.

Cozy home for our stay

I use the word ‘home’ in the title intentionally…this felt like a home away from home…not a typical vacation rental. Everything here met our expectations and we were very comfortable…park and beach a short walk from house, Suttons Bay downtown is a short walk/bike ride, the list goes on. Wouldnt hesitate to rent here again.

Perfect choice for our weekend stay.

Easy process to getting in this adorable, well appointed cottage. Very neat, clean and comfy with a perfect backyard to enjoy sitting around the fire pit. A grill is also available for cooking out. Perfect for 2 couples and well located on the peninsula for the activities we wanted to do for our weekend away. The town of Sutton’s Bay was very close, can walk or bike to this cute area. Will revisit this rental when in the area. A restaurant list would be very helpful as we just had to drive around to see what we wanted and walked the downtown area.

Perfect location

We loved this little blue house! Easy to get to and very quiet neighborhood. I have a few suggestions to make it even better. A few blankets would have been great. Also we got there when it was dark and even in the daylight the numbers are hard to read on the house. Otherwise it was perfect! Thank you!

Another Great Stay in Suttons Bay

This was our 2nd stay at this property and it’s always very clean and comfortable. This is a yearly trip for us with our pups and it’s perfect for them as well. If there was a tv in the bedrooms, that would be even better. The location is pretty good, being walkable to the beach, restaurants and shops. We like that Traverse City is only 20 minutes and most of the wineries are real close. Glen Arbor is about 30 minutes. We would definitely stay there again next year. August in Michigan is the best #puremichigan
