Cozy cottage with private pond. Close to the casino and the Bay.

This property is a magical spot with gorgeous landscaping and a serene setting. Enjoy a fire in the provided fire pit. There is a charcoal grill for outdoor cooking on a splendid summer evening.

Very cute historical stay

While we were there on a very hot weekend we were able to keep the house cool with the fans at night. Being from Western North Carolina my husband and I were able to adapt however, I would probably suggest that anyone with less of a heat tolerance be sure and check the weather for your stay! The property is adorable, private, and comfortable.

Serene little cottage

This was a lovely little stay. The cottage is charming and cozy. The pond out side is beautiful and serene. It is directly on a busy road as some reviews mention, but being this far out there's not much traffic at night.

Girls Trip

The Sutton Bay Area is so much more relaxing than Traverse City yet close enough to enjoy Traverse City and surrounding areas. This is minor but would be nice to have a shower head that adjusted. Again minor but would have made showering more enjoyable. Location though was perfect.

Late Summer Girls Trip

My mom, sisters and I booked this cottage for our annual girls trip. The cottage was SUPER cozy and in the perfect location for what we had planned. It was only a five minute drive to downtown Sutton’s Bay and a 10 minute drive in the other direction would get you to Northport! Plenty of great seating areas and spaces to cozy up. The porches (both inside and out) were lovely. We would definitely not hesitate to stay here again!
