Great location. Some quirks but over all Great. Loved the back patio and yard. Still not use to the non cable thing. Had a hard time finding local weather. Hope to book next year.

A perfect little weekend get away! Marie’s home was clean and welcoming. It was great being a block over from the Main Street making it easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. This home is pretty centrally located, you have plenty of winery’s around, hoplot brewery down the road and nine beans only a 4 minute drive away. Upon checking in I did have an issue with my door code not working but Marie’s customer service was fantastic. She called me even at a later hour after getting a notification that I was having troubles and helped me out immediately. I would most definitely return for another get away!

The best home rental experience we’ve encountered in this area and we’ve been coming to the Leelanau county for years. It’s a hidden gem tucked away in the neighborhood just behind the town of Suttons Bay. We could walk most places, shops, restaurants, the beach and marina. We used all the spaces of the home including the back screened porch. We loved most the large covered porch with its view of the park yet offering a private feeling with the surrounding trees and plants. We will be back!

The house is well kept and convenient to the shops and beach in Suttons Bay, as well as other sites in the Leelenau Peninsula. It might be too close to Dalzell’s Dairy! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and especially appreciated the outdoor and beach equipment conveniently located in the garage.

We spent 2 weeks in this wonderful rental and we will return for sure. It was clean, better stocked with pots and pans than maybe any rental I’ve been in, and the benefits to the location can’t be oversold. We walked to the beach in under 5 minutes, ice cream is a 3 minute walk. The grocery store is less than a 5 minute drive. All of Sutton’s Bay shops and restaurants are minutes away on foot. We walked to the bike rental in maybe 7 minutes. When we didn’t want to cook, we walked to dinner easily. The beds are very comfortable. The backyard is pleasant and the tennis/pickle ball court and basketball court feel like an extension of the front yard. The driveway is spacious which allows for easy parking for multiple vehicles. Communication with the owner was easy. I have been coming to the area since 1980 and have been returning with our teenage sons for the past 5 years. This is their favorite rental and we definitely will return!
