Fantastic weekend away!

We booked this house for a girl's trip and it was perfect for what we needed! We had 10 women and the sleeping arrangements worked out perfectly. Plenty of space for us to hang out together or so our own thing. The house was beautiful, well maintained and in a great location! We enjoyed walking down to the beach. Teri, the host was quick to respond to messages and very kind. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Great Host, Great House

Tucked into a beautiful neighborhood on the water, this house was a great place to catch up with friends in an even better location. We were a group of friends staying together for a wedding and the host was kind to give recommendations and answered every question we had promptly, kindly, and professionally. Thanks for a fun weekend!

Slice of Heaven in Northern Michigan’s West Bay|Lake Michigan

When we came down the street, we realized just how private and quiet this waterfront retreat would be. From the minute we walked in the door, it felt as if a family member gave us keys to their private retreat for our use for the weekend. The owners have done a fantastic job of furnishing the home. With the outdoor living area, there are three common areas for lounging and hanging. Perfect for families that are joining together. We all slept with our windows open at night, and it was incredibly quiet. The deck overlooking the lake is fantastic, and the steps down to the private beach even better. We did small fires at the waters edge at night, made s’more‘s, and told stories, and laughed as a family. It’s as if time stopped while we were here, allowing us to all be connected in a way we haven’t been in years. We all used the outdoor shower off the first floor primary suite. It was absolutely fantastic with temperature control and all of the personal care products, you need ready. The town of Suttons Bay is an eight minute drive. The best kept secret beach is five doors down the street, and a perfect distance for all ages to walk down and enjoy. The Blackstone grill was awesome for making dinner, and we even considered doing breakfast on it. I just can’t say enough positive things about this location, the house, the beach, the water, and these incredible hosts. Given the opportunity to stay here, we would choose this first over any other options!
