Having never been to Suttons Bay, I wasn't sure exactly what I was getting myself and my family into when I booked our long weekend. We have two small children (3 and nearly 2), so the proximity to the beach and park was the selling point for me, and now that the trip is over, I have no regrets over my choice of lodging. We loved having the ability to walk across the street to play on the playground, play at the beach and splash around in the water.
The bed was comfortable enough, and we had brought our own pillows, so I can't really speak to the quality of what is there. There is a small grocery store half a mile from the condo, which is convenient enough, but you have to travel down a busy M-22, so it's not exactly walkable. The town itself has several restaurants to choose from, but our favorite was Hop Lot and it's great Up North atmosphere. The patio was nice to sit out on and watch the sunrise and enjoy the long Michigan summer evenings.
The air conditioning kept the place very comfortable during the day, but it is a wall unit and not central air, so if you want the benefits of A/C, either leave your bedroom door open at night or hope the temperatures outside are accommodating at night. There are fans in every room for additional air circulation.
There are plenty of pots and pans for meal prep, but there are only 4 each of bowls, plates and salad plates, so either be ready to use the dishwasher after every meal or bring a sponge/brush for cleanup after meals. We will most likely stay here again in the future.
