The house is perfectly located, with scenic views in every direction, quiet and peaceful atmosphere, but only a few minutes from town. Host was very thoughtful in setting up a memorable stay. All rooms were comfortable, and the house was stocked with every amenity. We will absolutely be coming back whenever we want to go up north again.

We come to Suttons Bay every fall for a girls weekend. It is so nice being able to stay on the water on Tom's property. If the weather is nice, we've been able to sit on the deck and have some wine. This is our second time staying at this property and both times we've gotten great pictures of the sunset. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful girlfriend's week-end. Plenty of space for 5 women. The house is beautiful, clean, attractively decorated and convenient. Enjoyed the view of the water and the convenience to the shops and sites in the Sutton's Bay and Leeland area. We were able to squeeze 3 cars into the driveway. The tightness of the parking would be my only small negative. The owner did state that arrangements could be made for additional parking. Fortunately we didn't need it.

A cozy, lakeside home just close enough to the city to make it an easy trip but also to feel a little secluded. Our second stay here and really enjoyed it

This house was perfect for our group of four couples. We came up for a weekend of wine tasting and found ourselves spending half our time at the house because it was so comfortable and suited for hanging out. We loved sitting on the dock in the morning with coffee and being able to all sit together at the dining table. The house was very clean and super close to all the big wineries on the peninsula. I'm sure we'll be back!

This property is a great place to stay. The location is ideal. Only 2 miles from downtown and an easy drive to Traverse City and many local golf courses. The road is great for walking. The view overlooking the bay is beautiful. We enjoyed sitting out on the dock watching the passing sailboats. The house has everything that you need or could want. We had no issues or complaints. That's saying a lot for 4 woman. Lol

The property was as pictured. It was very relaxing, beautiful on the lake. We enjoyed the quiet but it was not far from traverse, Leland and Suttons bay if we wanted to leave.
We would definitely stay there again

My family of 4 had a wonderful week at this property. The house sits right on Suttons Bay on a quiet street. The backyard is phenomenal and just steps away from the water. We enjoyed watching the sunsets, eating meals on the upper deck, using the firepit, lounging on the dock, and playing in the water. The house was clean and well-stocked. The host was great and responded quickly! It's a 5-minute drive to town and the marina. We will be back!!

We loved the Suttons Bay area and the home has great views of the bay. It was very quiet and there were a lot of outdoor areas to relax including a great dock and upper deck off the living area. Nice large living area inside with plenty of comfortable seating. Beds were comfortable.

Beautiful lake front view and very easy to relax and enjoy ourselves at this lovely spot. Some of the screens were missing from the windows and a couple of the door handles were broken but other than that, the home was in very good condition. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy the lake, which we did!

We loved our stay at this gorgeous cottage. It is so spacious and easily accommodated our group. Well-situated in a quiet neighborhood close to the center of town and great proximity to all Leelanau has to offer. Couldn’t get enough of those lake views and sunsets!

We enjoyed a wonderful stay and this home is exactly as described! It’s a beautiful home in an amazing location! Close to downtown Sutton’s Bay, and a short beautiful drive to Traverse City. Tom was responsive to all my questions prior to and during our stay. I would highly recommend this VRBO home to others.

Michigan was in almost full fall bloom when we arrived. We watched the view change each and every day from green to vibrant reds and yellows across the lake. The view from the decks, kitchen, dining, living and upstairs bedroom was amazing. The location....AWESOME....close to everything but not a total tourist trap. Tom was so great at communication and this house was perfect for myslef, husband, brother and sister in law. Our pups LOVED IT. The home was laid out so wonderfully and had everything you needed. Comfy beds, plenty of towels and cooking utensils.
We will be back !

We come to Traverse every year but this was our first time staying in Sutton’s Bay and at this location. The home was clean and cozy. The view from the house is gorgeous. It’s conveniently located within 5 minutes of the TART, shops, and groceries. Would definitely stay again!

The house sits in a very convenient location just outside downtown Suttons Bay. Easy access to wineries, restaurants and other cute small towns on the Leelanau Peninsula. The house was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, the bath towels were hotel quality and the views of the bay were fantastic! Overall a great stay.

We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Everything was as explained in the listing and was better in 'real life' than the pictures. We pretty much used all of the sleeping places yet there was enough space for everyone to spread out. We were a mix of family members aged 8 months to 80 and all were accommodated. The kitchen is well equipped (except we could have used a couple of sheet-pans for the oven). Shops, Suttons Bay and wine-tasting nearby, the lake was calm and clean, beautiful sunsets, long evenings at the dinner table and fire pit. Although we didn't meet him, Tom was a responsive, helpful and friendly host.
If I could make one suggestion it would be to add some SUPs or kayaks to the property (as I have seen other houses of this calibre provide). For the cost of one weeks' rental, the owner could buy a couple of SUPs and save the customers time, effort and money. Some of the local places could not deliver due to staff shortages, which caused some delays in finding other locations to rent, get delivered, etc.
All-in-all a great great week!

We enjoyed out stay in this lovely location and home. It was beautifully furnished, kitchen was stocked with everything you could need and the view was beautiful inside and out. It was quiet and peaceful. Tom was a great host. I appreciated him letting me tour the house in advance when I was in the area 3 months before our stay. It helped me plan. Thank you!

House was wonderfully appointed and fit our family well. Enjoyed sitting on the dock. Not warm enough for much swimming but our Labrador didn’t mind.
