Spectacular retreat in Suttons Bay

This is a beautiful & very comfortable home in the heart of the Leelanau County wine region. The views are spectacular & wineries, restaurants, and the town of Suttons Bay are all nearby. Our hostess was wonderful & very accommodating, even supplying trucks for our grandson, toys for the dogs, and smores for the nighttime fire. We will happily return!

Heavenly

A great week with family, kids would have been happy just running around the lawn, playing cornhole, etc., but we took advantage of great location, very close to Suttons bay, quick drive to Leland. House is spotless, well equipped for an infant, bedrooms on three levels. Front porch to spend hours on, beautiful view. We would absolutely rent again!

Everything is 5 stars! This is an excellent facility and is beautifully landscaped. We have experienced renting VRBO's for more than 10 years, and our host Paula has been the most attentive, friendly, and available to accommodate any needs we had. By accident, one in our party left a jacket at the location and Paula mailed it back and even paid the postage!
