About this property

Private West Traverse Bay Waterfront - Sleeps 8

Private West Traverse Bay waterfront home located on a dead-end road over one mile from the traffic noise on M-22. Gorgeous sunrise view across bay to the Old Mission lighthouse. A short drive or bike ride to small town shopping and dining in quaint Suttons Bay. Twenty minutes to both Leland and downtown Traverse City. Located in the heart of Leelanau wine country.

Almost everything in the house is new within the last five years including complete remodels of both bathrooms, the kitchen, bedrooms, and the walkout basement rec room. The beach and deck receive morning and early afternoon sun with shade later in the afternoon. The dock is sunny from dawn to dark.

Beautiful private beach, dock, and elevated deck for sunbathing, swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Beach has a large fire pit and rustic seating. The beach has a small sand area for children, but the water is rocky and water shoes are recommended.

Main floor bedroom with queen bed and three bedrooms on the second floor. Walk-out basement rec room with lots of seating for watching movies, playing games, and puzzles for rainy days. Full kitchen with dishwasher. First floor full size washer and dryer.

Beautiful, elevated deck with lots of seating and a table for outside dining overlooking the beach and lake. Brand new dock with swim ladder. Kayaks available for use or bring your town water toys. There is a state boat launch approximately six miles to the south and another city launch in downtown Suttons Bay three miles north.

beautiful sunrises, quiet and friendly neighborhood, great family cottage
We loved spending 10 days at this cottage. It is just as the photos and listing described. It is a relaxed, comfortable cottage, well-appointed, awesome east-facing deck and fun fire pit area. Brian and Cathy were easy to communicate with and responsive to our questions. The location is great - a short drive (or substantial walk!) to Suttons Bay. Thanks for sharing it with our family!

Lovely Lakehouse Retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is exactly as depicted. Others noted a smell of mustiness - we did not experience this at all. The house was clean and decorated as a family lake house, which was exactly what we were looking for. We could feel that the owners love and enjoy the space themselves. It felt as if we were staying at a friend's house - cozy and welcoming, not sterile. Great location, just a short drive to Suttons Bay, Leland, Leelanau wineries, etc.,

Nothing Better
We couldn't have asked for a nicer home or location for a family vacation, including our dog. The home was very comfortable and well stocked. The neighborhood peaceful and friendly. Our favorite memories will be the nightly gatherings around the fire and being a family. Bring a telescope if you have one because you'll get great views of Jupiter and Saturn. Moons, rings and all! Many, many thanks to Brian and his family.
