Family friendly beachfront rental

We had a relaxing stay at this beautiful midcentury modern home. My whole family, including my kids (6 and 4), had a blast kayaking on the bay, and there were plenty of toys onsite for the beach. Flying in from out of town, we appreciated the well stocked the kitchen and linens/beach towels. Overall, a great stay!

Family getaway

The house was exactly how described. The neighborhood is quiet and theres even a wooded lot on the other side, so if you're looking for a more lrivaye getaway, this is the house in Suttons Bay. It's conveniently located close to town, with many food options (even for the picky eater). Our kids enjoyed the private beach and the basement was perfect for them to have their own space.

Great Getaway

We loved the cool mid-century vibe. A well-stocked house with everything we needed to cook our gourmet meals. Morning sunrise coffee by the shore and wine in the evenings by the water were highlights of our stay. Hanan was a wonderful communicator and very gracious about everything. Great weekend!

We had a wonderful time staying at Hanan's property over a holiday weekend! We were in town for a wedding and decided to stay an extra few days to enjoy some time at the lake. Hanan's property came with everything we could have possibly wanted or needed. She was a wonderful, responsive host and we look forward to coming back soon!

Comfortable stay with incredible views of West Bay.

The home was fantastic with incredible views. The deck and yard were great for relaxing in the shade and sun. All day there are opportunities for both sun and shade in the yard. Covered part of the deck was great for enjoying storms. Beach was great for the kids and we enjoyed the multiple kayaks to go out on the water with. We will be back!

Perfect family vacation spot!

The property is amazing! Clean, gorgeous, and has everything that you need to truly relax. Hanan was easy to communicate with when we had questions. You can tell that she and her family really take care of this property. My teenagers and preschooler had a blast with all the sand toys, kayaks, and playing basketball. And my husband and I could relax at night in the hot tub. Truly a great experience, we want to come back every summer!

Glorious Woodland and Water Retreat

It was a great stay for our immediate family (4 adults plus 9 year old) and visits from other family staying nearby. Delightful mid century design, with an entire wall of windows. Plus a solidly supplied kitchen and excellent access to linens, towels, etc. The lake with beach and rocky but comfortable long shallow waterfront with lounge space and kayaks. Wooded backyard provides shade and privacy plus a delightful fresh pine scent. Would absolutely rent again.

High school friends reunion

There were 7 women who have known each other for 50-65 years, all still going strong & full of life. This property offered everything we enjoyed: a gorgeous water view in a quiet neighborhood; a well-equipped kitchen; and plenty of seating & sleeping space. The location is close enough to make a donut run to Chimoski’s Bakery in Suttons Bay; visit Northern Latitudes Distillery for cocktails in Lake Leelanau; and an easy drive to Traverse City to walk the 4 mi TART trail around Boardman Lake. Highly recommended!

Great lake house for family

We stayed for a little over a week and enjoyed our time here. The house is great for families as it has everything from sand toys, pack and play and all of the basic kitchen essentials (including a grill.). The property is set a bit above the water with a stairway leading down to beac/dock/water. This was convenient because we put a baby gate on the stairway to worry a little less with small children. There is a dock and perfect little beach with breakwater for small children to play. They also have a nice hot tub with a bit of a lake view. The owner is very friendly and invested in her guests satisfaction with the experience.

Stunning!! Beautiful views...one of the best family vacations!

I could not have been more pleased with our time at this Sutton's Bay home! It was exactly what we were looking for and more! The home easily slept the nine of us! My sister has a baby and there was a pack and play and a gate kept inside one of the rooms. The owners keep shampoo and soap in the showers and laundry detergent by the washer and dryer. They basically make it easy for you to come up, unpack and immediately start enjoying the lake. They keep bikes in the garage, kayaks and canoes on the beach and enough life jackets in a variety of sizes to meet our needs. The hot tub is awesome and so is the house! We were thrilled with the property. So much so that my sister cried when we left! Thank you Hanan for allowing us to use your home!!!
