If you are looking for the quintessential 'Up North' experience, you have found it. Perched on top of a gradual hill overlooking Suttons Bay, our cottage sits on 5 wooded acres. While relaxing on our 212' feet of private shoreline you will feel like the Bay is yours alone. You can enjoy panoramic views of Old Mission Peninsula and Stony Point, and take in the natural beauty of Northern Michigan in complete privacy.

At roughly 1,400 square feet our cottage is large enough for as many as 8 people, but cozy enough for one couple. This cozy cottage has original oak floors (refinished in 2024), knotty pine walls throughout, and a wonderful sunroom. A floor-to-ceiling wood burning fireplace is a great way to top off the evening and enjoy the cottage's atmosphere. Also be witness to a rich variety of wildlife, including a family of swans, loons, ducks, and even the occasional bald eagle.

Enjoy our outdoor amenities, including three sea kayaks; a rowboat; and a professionally installed mooring anchor for your boat. A swimmer friendly dock, large sandy beach, bay-side fire pit, and horseshoe pit, round off the front yard features.

This charming original log cabin restores the nostalgia of your Up North memories. It is truly your home away from home.

    This house was absolutely perfect. The house itself was clean and large enough for our family. The wide yard was wonderful for our dog to run around and chase grasshoppers! We particularly loved the multitude of areas we could enjoy depending on the mood or the weather! No matter how you like to enjoy the outdoors up north, there was a space for you!

    My family and I had an absolutely great week at this wonderful cabin ideally situated at the edge of a pretty woods, away from the road, and on a quiet stretch of private waterfront. It was well equipped for all of us-- me and my husband, my elderly parents, and my 3 kids, ages 1 to 7. Highly, highly recommend, and we hope to return!

    We loved our stay. We brought our dogs who love swimming and this was a perfect location! Private, and really loved that it had kayaks/paddleboards for us to enjoy as well. Will definitely be back

    This was our first family vacation with our baby Granddaughter, and our first time at Suttons Bay proper. We were delighted with all aspects of the home, lake, and property! The kitchen has been beautifully updated and provided a great focal point for the beauty of the lake. So much fun cooking and handing plates over the counter to the enclosed dining area that opens up to a large deck overlooking the lake. The home was definitely large enough for 7 adults and a 12 month old. So many places to read, play games, etc. The beach addition was fantastic for lounging, reading, swimming, and playing with a child. We rented a pontoon boat for 2 days (we went to lunch at Knot Just a Bar in Omena Bay), and the pier is great for docking. The ability to use the kayaks and SUPS was wonderful and the bay is beautiful. Croquet set and hammock were appreciated. The newer outdoor furniture was great to sit and relax in the evenings (one night, we were lucky to observe a meteor shower!). The town of Suttons Bay has plenty of cute shops and restaurants, and Leland (with charming historic Fishtown) is only ~ 15 minutes away...The Cove restaurant did not disappoint. Washer and Dryer in the large mud room was nice to have. Harry our host was fantastic. Wish we could have stayed 2 weeks...maybe next time!

    This is our 3rd stay and it was perfect. The location is close to everything Leelanau has to offer but still feels secluded and private. The big grassy lawn is great for games the kitchen had all we needed to keep our teens fed. When we didn’t want to cook terrific restaurant options are just down the road. Great location for biking, wine and cider tasting or kayaking the bay. We can’t wait to go back!
