This second-floor unit is located squarely in the middle of small Suttons Bay, close enough to walk to the coffee shops (Northern Latitudes is directly below), restaurants, shops, bike rentals, the beach and more. The unit itself provides ample space for four adults - two bedrooms separated by a spacious bathroom in between. The selling point, and where we spent the majority of our time, is the balcony overlooking the marina with a view of the bay. Four Adirondack chairs and two side tables fit us perfectly. We did not bring any kids, but for families that do, there is a good size beach right next to the marina with playground sets and volleyball nets.
Suttons Bay ended up being the ideal landing spot for us. We visited wineries and restaurants from Leland to Traverse City, including a stop at Brys Estates Vineyard (amazing views) in the Old Mission peninsula. In case your visit includes a wine tour, don’t miss 45, Two K, and Aurora.
Karen (the host) was very timely with informative texts and messages about checking in and making sure everything was in place.
If we decide to return to Suttons Bay, this will be the first place we look for reservations for sure! 5 stars all the way.
