Spring break

My daughter and I stayed in March for her spring break. We had our two four legged companions with us. We did a lot of hiking, shopping and eating. Enjoyed having coffee in the morning with the expansive view of the partially frozen bay. It was very cozy and relaxing on the days we stayed in. Really enjoyed our stay. Will definitely want to stay again. Very clean and cozy.

Sutton’s bay cabin

Quaint cabin 5 minutes to the village of Suttons Bay. Clean, comfy, and quiet. Perfect mini vacation for my wife and I. And the weather end of October was perfect for beach walks and shopping.

Cozy, relaxing late fall weekend

I love staying at Moonglade - this is our third time here. The occasional fierceness of the bay is countered by comfort of the cottage. Wonderful location, clean, feel like you are home. Highly recommend.

So Relaxing

We loved our second stay at Moonglade Cottage. It is a beautiful, clean little cottage. The view of the sunset is amazing and love the screened in porch to read on for those rainy days. My husband and I always have a wonderful time here and the owner is quick to communicate if anything is needed.

Weekend iat Suttons Bay

The cottage is cute and right on the bay. Take stairs down to the retaining wall patio and dock. We loved that there was no sand to get off our feet!! Very peaceful this time of year (before school is out). Perfect place for us to enjoy some R&R between family wedding activities. Enjoyed our stay!
