Thank you for your 5-Star review! We are pleased to hear that you Loved it !
It was very large, much larger than the pictures seem to appear. We were a group of 5 and it felt plenty spacious. When it says walkable, it really is. Just a few minutes to downtown and to the beach. Suttons Bay is such a lovely place. We had a lovely stay.

Reviewer Comments:
This was our second year staying at Suttons Bay Sunshine for our family vacation to walk/run the Fishtown 5k. This year we rented directly through Up North Vacation Rentals, LLC and the transaction went smoothly. It was nice to stay at a place that we were already familiar with. The kitchen had most everything we needed for meal prep. The neighbor downstairs loaned us a potato masher when we couldn't find one. Our grandchildren were excited to be greeted by the large yellow lab stuffed dog. He made a great play and bedtime companion. Because of the wildfire smoke, and outside activities were very limited, the comfy living room furniture was a great place to gather with other family members up for the Fishtown 5k.

So glad the family had the opportunity to do the Fishtown 5K and relax and recharge at this home. Thank you!
Clean tastefully decorated home just a block off Main Street. Loved the location and all the little things done right to make our 3 night stay seamless. Definitely would recommend. Quiet safe neighborhood as well. Minutes from Leelanau Trail!
A very nice an convenient place to stay. Property is very clean. Groundskeepers live in the duplex below the rental, but for the four days we stayed we didn't hear them once. The kitchen is nice and roomy if you want the option to cook a meal or two on vacation. Location is excellent for walking access to Suttons Bay and short driving distance to either Glen Arbor, Traverse City, or any of the attractions like wineries and scenic overlooks/walks in between.
Well stocked kitchen, clean bathrooms with nice towels, large main living room, and comfortable beds. Vrbo listing shows water views. This property is a ten minute walk to the beach and waterfront. Short walk to shopping and dining. Enjoyed our stay!

Thank you! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay.
The rental was great for 5 of us. Walking distance to Sutton's Bay, close to Hop Lot and other wineries/cideries. Be careful, even if you book with VRBO the management company makes you sign their rental agreement with the management company and you open yourself up to additional liability. Pickleball courts and disc golf nearby. Although it says there's only 2 parking spaces, there's TONS of street parking outside the house. We would definitely stay here again.

Loved our stay at this spacious home in a quiet neighborhood within easy walking distance to shops/restaurants and the Leelanau Trail. Kitchen was very well stocked for meal preparation and deck was a great place to relax. Would definitely stay again!

Great weekend!
Beautiful property exactly as described in listing. We were ever so comfortable during our stay. My parents, in their 90’s were very comfortable. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need for cooking.
House clean, comfortable, upgraded linens, and furniture—nice touch. House was well stocked with everything we needed. Property really conveniently located—It’s about a 10 minute walk to beach and not more than 20 minute drive to Traverse City and other quaint towns along coast.
