We had a WONDERFUL stay here, perfect for the two families we had staying together. The land is beautiful, the treehouse was clutch, and the bedroom layout was ideal. Thank you so much! 5 stars!
We loved our vacation to Sutton's Bay! The home was so nice and the air conditioning worked amazing! The beds were comfy. Communication was great with the host. The list of restaurants was great - top notch! There was even a mini apartment downstairs! There is a little dock and access to the woods - so pretty!
We really enjoyed our stay. There is plenty of room and great outdoor amenities like a fire pit and tree house. the home is in a great location for hiking, biking etc
Overall, not a fancy property but a solid one for our group of 14. With three bedrooms, we definitely utilized all of the futons and stuff for our 3-family group.
LOVED the big outdoor front yard / field. Kids and adults could play frisbee, hang out. Lots of laughs and fun! The back patio w/ the fireplace was simply lovely as we wound down each day.
The location cannot be beat! Five minutes from Sutton's Bay, 10 minute to multiple wineries, 25 minutes to the top of the peninsula, and 25 min to Traverse City.
Couple of adds - since we were in wine country, some wine glasses would have been good to have. And this may be random, but a griddle pan would have been handy. Tho I don't think we reached out to the property managers to ask on this front. Any time we asked, they were there to supply anything needed - more towels, soap, etc.
Oh, we tried fishing in the lake several times, but no luck, so don't count on that being an activity.
Overall, thumbs up on this property. Thanks for a great stay!
The property recently underwent renovations and was nice and clean. The upstairs porch and picnic area in the back (with the fireplace) was very nice, we were most thrilled about that. A few minor things to keep in mind for future guests, there is no oven and the sink/shower water is very much well water, so if you are not a fan of the well water smell, your shower time might be reduced in half. Overall, the location is secluded and has beautiful morning views where the sun comes up on the small lake. Joe is great, he is responsive and wants to make sure you and your guests have a great time while staying at the property. Would recommend staying here for future guests.
Clean
Number of beds was deceiving. 2 futons in the living room made socializing difficult
Flooring in the lower level apartment was bubbled which made it difficult to walk definitely needs to be fixed. No oven was unexpected

Convenient location to the starry night barn and Sutton’s Bay.
We were there for a wedding at the Starry Night Barn. The location was very convenient.

Great location and plenty of space
We were able to travel to so many fun destinations due to the amazing location! There was plenty of space to sleep and lots of bathrooms with tubs so we could get up and ready for the day and cleaned up at night! The family room and dining room were spacious and allowed us all to gather and play games. The deck had plenty of chairs and we were able to enjoy morning coffee and evening dinner/drinks with views of the pond. During our stay, we only had one minor issue, but the property manager was very quick to help. The dim lighting in the kitchen made it a bit tricky to prepare some meals, but it was well-stocked with dishes and utensils. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
We had a large group and this house for everyone with extra room. We were busy and out of the house for the most part so having a house that was well kept with tons of space to come back to was great. Would definitely recommend.
It was a wonderful stay, house was clean and everything was provided with in the house I have stayed at several different places but of how well this house was equipped was beyond. Thank you so much for a pleasant stay. We will definitely be back!
