Sunset on the Bay

Loved this home. Floor plan and flow was great for our group with different interest. We were close enough for day trips to explore the area. At home to unwind on a deck to watch the sunset on the bay, and the reflection of the moon on the water.

Perfect Family Getaway: Cozy, Comfortable, and Kid-Friendly!

We stayed for 2 nights as two families with babies and toddlers. The house is perfect for kids—comfortable, cozy, and filled with toys. The outside area is safe and lovely. The host was super kind and easy to contact. We had a fantastic experience and highly recommend it for families!

Nice up northy place

We enjoyed the comfortable cottage with a lovely view of the lake. Loved the deck access to the lake and enjoyed watching the sunset while having a campfire in the fire pit. Tonie was responsive and helpful with local resources. The location is very quiet at night and convenient to all Leelanau destinations. Renters should be aware that one queen bedroom is in the walkout basement with low ceilings.

Easy check in and the most beautiful clear blue water you can imagine

Very easy , no-touch/no-fuss check in. The cottage is small but very charming and thoughtfully updated. The view and the water is spectacular! Crystal clear, cold, clean water perfect for open water swimmers or kayakers.

Enjoyable Stay!

Our stay was enjoyable! Tonie welcomed us with a phone call and was very attentive to our needs and was always willing to answer questions. The cottage was perfect and the views were great. We traveled with our three dogs and so happy that Tonie welcomed them as well. It wouldn’t have been a good trip if we had to leave our dogs home. Definitely will come back if we road-trip again in the future!

Amazing Stay

We had a WONDERFUL stay. Toni was so on top of things and was great at checking on us. The house had plenty of space, she solicited and welcomed feedback and oh my gosh the location and view!!! The kids jumped off the backyard and right into the water, we enjoyed the kayaks and the firepit, moored our rented boat right off the house, and even our furry family member was welcome! I almost hate to leave a great review lest this property not be available when we're ready for our next vacation! But we loved it and would surely go back! (Do know that you need to bring your own paper towels and toilet paper, but there are LOTS of towels!).

Cottage in Suttons Bay

This is a charming cottage right on Lake Michigan, with its own lakefront and dock. It is located on a quiet stretch of Suttons Bay. Two small bedrooms, a family room, living room, dining area, and a kitchen on the main level. The third bedroom is in a walkout basement. It is more like a suite with a sitting area, and has its own charm. We had to maintain air circulation in the downstairs area or it started to feel a little musty. There is one full bathroom upstairs but the downstairs area only has a basic, open bathroom (no shower). This may require a little coordination, although we worked it out. The large deck offers a barbecue, large table, and a great view of the Lake. We enjoyed our meals and sunsets from it. Beach and lawn toys and games, a fire pit, and plenty of lawn chairs all add to a good time. We enjoyed swimming, paddle boarding, biking, as well as excursions to nearby Suttons Bay and the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Our family of four adults had a wonderful, relaxed time.

Northport Cottage Review

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Northport Cottage (not the one pictured) in Northport, Michigan. We know the Leelenau Peninsula quite well, having lived on Long Lake for 6 years, and found the town charming and the sights rewarding. The weather was PERFECT and the absence of bugs noticable. The racky shoreline was a bit of a nuisance, but handleable, with Tevas. The cottge was extremely well appointed, with all the comforts of home, making it a bit "busy" for our long-term tastes, but not an issue for a vacation place, Perfect walking distance from ammenities, and a good restaurant. I am a bit of a handy man and, so, was glad to purchase a screwdriver and a pair of pliers, for the cottage, and to affect some minor repairs. We plan on being back, at least to the area, and will seriously consider this place, in particular!

Incredible views in Suttons Bay

The views as soon as you walk in are incredible. The outside deck is the perfect place to grill out, have a family dinner, and sip a glass of wine as the sun goes down. We didn’t utilize the beach (rocky) and dock looked on the smaller side but you could certainly use it to send off a kayak. We biked the 1.5 miles down to the public beach point in Suttons bay. The cottage is older with some older house quirks but has what you need. Host is very responsive. Thanks for a great trip to the Leelaneau Peninsula!
