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.
