House on Lake Michigan
The house was clean and organized. We had everything we needed for cooking for seven people. The grandchildren with their parents enjoyed the kayaks. The sun rise was magnificent from the deck that overlooks Lake Michigan.

Perfect spot for families!
We had a wonderful stay! The two floors were perfect, we had a floor for grandparents and a floor for our family with the kids. The water was clear and shallow and fun for everyone to wade around. The water toys were a blast, we made extensive use of the kayaks, water matsl and stand up paddle board. We also had a lovely swan visitor. Great location between Suttons Bay and Traverse City. Stunning view of the bay. We loved every minute and would definitely return!

Our stay at the Bay
Our VRBO was absolutely fantastic! The layout of the home as well as being right on the bay was the perfect choice for us and our friends. The distance to downtown was far enough away that we felt the charm of the bay but close enough to travel to all the fun downtown sites to explore and enjoy. The home was very clean and was supplied well with extras to have fun if we just wanted to stay, enjoy the dock and water. recommend this VRBO highly.

Fun on East Bay
We had a great time. We enjoyed the water & the water toys. We drove to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes & did the scenic drive tour & took lots of photos! We drove into Traverse City & did some shopping in the Open Space tents & walked through the down town area & along the marina to admire the fancy boats. We ate at some of our favorite restaurants & A

Gorgeous view!
Wow! The back of the house has two lare decks facing the water and is just gorgeous! House is beachy and super cute and very clean. Lower level is perfect for a family with kids. Location to TC and to wineries is awesome. Only downside is that it is on a busy street so those sleeping on main floor had some traffic noise (white noise on your phone might be helpful). All in all, loved it!

About the host

Hosted by Lee Day

Host profile image
With a love of Northern Michigan 3 siblings and their families came together from Cleveland, Denver & Traverse City and purchased DAYBREAK TC as a family owned vacation home. We take great pride in providing a warm, inviting cottage full of amenities for a comfortable stay. We have taken extra precautions to ensure a safe and clean stay amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Why they chose this property

With just 25 feet between you and the water, this perfectly appointed cottage gives you the best of West Bay & Lake Michigan -10 minutes to Suttons Bay & 20 minutes to Traverse City allows for easy access to a host of all-season activities, world-class restaurants and beautiful scenery. The TART trail is right around the corner and is situated in the heart of Leelanau County wine country. If you fancy a day of relaxation, the private dock gives you easy access to the lake with a view of Power Island.

What makes this property unique

Footsteps to the water with sunrise views, this house offers the best year-round access to Northern Michigan fun!
