Nice cozy spot to relax after a day of wine tasting. Great location. Steep drop off to the waters edge. On a 2 lane road. Not much traffic but when there is it's faster than expected. Beautiful overall. Easy access & prompt host response.

The cottage was perfect. Our favorite activity was enjoying wine in the screened porch overlooking the bay. The location to downtown Sutton’s Bay and Traverse City were a plus. Our host was excellent in communicating with us from time of booking until our departure. The only regret was not being able to extend our stay for one more day.

We spent 3 nights at Moonglade cottage and had a wonderful stay. The cottage is equipped with everything we needed. Very clean and comfy. The back screened porch facing the water was a perfect place for relaxing. Evenings were spent around the bonfire. Tom, the host, was friendly and quick to respond. We will be back next year!

Stunning views, nice screened in porch. We used the kayaks. The house was about 2 miles from the TART trail and HopLots. The property is very small but clean. No washer/dryer. Bring coffee, tea, basic toiletries etc.

We could not ask for a better experience at Moon Glade. It was so relaxing but also close to everything in town. We saw bald eagles and kayaked the glass waters. Highly recommend!

Scenic and peaceful

This cottage and area surrounding were lovely. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed. We spent so much time on that screened porch overlooking the water. What a treat. This place is my new favorite. I appreciate that I could bring my dog. All communication was very timely and every question was answered quickly. Wonderful, restful week.
