Stayed Oct 22, 2025Would 100% recommend. We will definitely return. Super clean home. Gel comfortable. Quick responses from the owner. If we were to critique one thing, master bedroom has a queen bed. Would prefer a king.

Stayed Oct 22, 2024Very impressed with the cleanliness and quality of workmanship in home. Very convenient to bike trail, Suttons Bay and several wineries. It was a great home base for our Leelanau and Old Mission adventures. Plan on visiting again.

Stayed Aug 18, 2024One of the best stays we’ve had. Beautiful and thoughtfully outfitted home with all the amenities of a high-end hotel. Fantastic location and setting. Close to all the area attractions. Cannot go wrong staying here, and Charlie is a gracious and super responsive host.

Stayed Jul 11, 2023This house is beautifully located in the farmland outside Suttons Bay, right off the bike trail and convenient to Lake Michigan, restaurants, and the grocery store. The house itself is clean and attractive and had everything we needed for our family stay, including coffee, bottled water, a bottle of wine and some snacks. We loved the fire pit and s'mores-making supplies! The bedrooms and bathrooms were nicely designed and laid out and there were lots of common areas for hanging out. We would definitely stay here again!

Stayed Jun 16, 2023We enjoyed everything about staying at the house. I'll point out some highlights below. The house seems to be recently remodeled and was well done. Very clean There are so many amenities and little touches around the house that make staying here great. Quiet location but very close to wineries and restaurants around the peninsula.
