Convenient location
The rental was great, perfect location and the thai food was delicious. There was a portable air conditioner in the bedroom which worked for me as i usually have a box fan, but the rental kept cool even during a 85-90 degree weekend. Super easy check in.

Bike trip and wine tasting
Great location for access to bike trails and wine tastings. There is amazing Thai food on the property as well as pizza and wine tasting. Huge parking lot available for bike trailers, boats, etc. One note - this is a second floor apartment above a restaurant but noise was not an issue as they close by 9:00. Very clean and contained all the necessities.

Stay was great!! Only thing that I will be looking into with VRBO is the $350 I was charged for an addition person. Communication with property owner was bad.

Very clean nice stay
The property was exactly as described and very comfortable. Great location for taking excursions around the bay. One thing, that they might not be aware of is the coffee maker is not functioning right. It wouldn't drip and backed up out of the filter. Might just need a good cleaning but other than that all was great!

Lovely honeymoon
We had a lovely honeymoon. This was a nice starting point for all of our day trips. The kitchen had the appliances we needed. However, the dishwasher was broken, so I wouldn’t count on that for your stay. Had a little mix up about our check-in, but Salve arrived pretty quickly when we reached her. She also made us delicious southwest egg rolls and a bottle of wine for our trouble! The furniture was all comfy. Plenty of closet space in the bedroom. It was nice to have a full length mirror for getting ready.

nice stay in Suttons Bay
We stayed in an upstairs apartment above a busy restaurant in a quaint barn like structure. The restaurant closed down by 9 so no issues with noise. The chef is amazing, check it out...Thai food is incredible. We got a chance to speak with owner a few times. Nice man! Bed is super comfy. The beach across the street is a big plus. Lots of rock hunting and swimming opportunities. If you are doing a lot of eating in, the kitchen is bare bones so bring what you need. There are bare basics. Overall a good stay with nice people. We spent most of our time off site, touring up the bay and into the surrounding area. It is a nice place to be to move up the bay and the coast a bit. Lovely scenery!

great Accomodations and location
The apartment was very clean and spacious. Owner met us for registration and made us some delicious spring rolls when she noticed that we were tire and late getting in. Noise from their Thai restaurant below was very minimal and no problem at all. Location was centrally located to many wineries in the area

Best location for us
We loved visiting the winery. We also wanted to go to Traverse City. This property was the best location for us. One of my favorite wineries was only a 4-minute drive away. Close to both Travers City and Suttons Bay. The property was roomy for 2 people. Clean and comfortable. People at the restaurant and tasting room were really friendly. I would love to go back there again!

What a pleasant stay!
We booked a stay for our family of four and I’m so glad we did. The unit was clean, with a well appointed kitchen, air conditioner and plenty of towels and extra blankets. The on-site staff were all very pleasant. We enjoyed the little beach area, it was quiet and serene. We were busy during the day, but when returned at night, it was so nice to have Thai food, pizza and wine right downstairs. We never had a bad meal and enjoyed the Blue Rooster Riesling! I would happily recommend this unit to anyone!

Perfect Location
Nicely located between Traverse City and the many wineries, breweries, and distilleries on the Leelanau Peninsula. The apartment is very clean. Basic necessities provided in the kitchen (coffee maker w/coffee and filters, toaster, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, some dishes, and silverware). The portable a/c unit in the bedroom is a bit loud, but did the job to keep the room comfortable. The apartment suited our needs perfectly for a comfortable place to stay after a day of wine tasting, fine dining, beaching, shopping, and all the other wonderful things to do in the Traverse City/Suttons Bay area!

Unique place to stay
We booked this place because we were attending a wedding in Suttons Bay and it was very convenient to both the wedding venue and to the downtown area. It was nice to be located right across from the water and boat ramp as well. Having the restaurant below us was nice because we ate there twice (good pizza!). The unit itself was nice, clean, and surprisingly quiet given it is located off of a busy road and above a restaurant. The only downside was there was no thermostat to control the temperature, and it did get a little hot at times. There was a pedestal fan that helped and an additional air conditioner in the bedroom. Also, there were no wine glasses in the unit, which was ironic because it is located above a restaurant that does wine tasting as well. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and I would recommend this as an option for those visiting Suttons Bay.
