This property was beautiful and the private beach was the best part. This property also had quite a few amenities that we were able to use with ease - kayaks, bonfire, hot tub etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was also fully stocked. The only issue we faced was a long list of rules and very extensive check out instructions. Because of all this we didn’t feel completely comfortable and free. Made us all feel on edge in the space. However, I think this is very common with ALL home rentals nowadays so it would not change my 5 star rating.

Thank you for the great compliments! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at our home and we were able to offer you the additional complimentary amenities requested including early check-in, firewood and lighters. We are sorry that you felt our instructions and rules were extensive. We do ask that our guests leave our home in the same condition they found it and treat it like it is their own. We offer many amenities and do not charge for them. However, we do ask our guests to return them to their original location prior to departure and safeguard them from being lost in the water. As far as checkout instructions, these are typical of vacation rentals especially in high end waterfront homes with many amenities like ours.

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.

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!
