About this property

Beautiful, spacious home in the village. Walk to everything. Air conditioning

Charming two-story home with 4-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms. This lovely cottage is located in the heart of the Village of Northport, just minutes from West Grand Traverse Bay. Situated on a quiet side street, it can accommodate up to eight people.

There are two bedrooms on the main floor, each with a queen bed. The two bedrooms upstairs each have two twin beds. The house is nicely furnished with newer furnishings and hardwood floors. It features a 46" HDTV with Roku streaming, a Blu-Ray/DVD player, a 5.1 Dolby Digital sound system, WIFI, and an XBOX 360 with Kinect. There is also a washer and dryer to make relaxation easier. On rainy days, there are board games and a bumper pool table for indoor fun.

Enjoy a lovely wrap-around porch for outdoor relaxation, complete with a charcoal grill and outdoor dining area. The beach and marina are easily accessible via peaceful, tree-lined streets. Enjoy the enchanting surroundings and partake in local festivals such as the Leelanau Wine & Food Festival and the summer Dog Parade. You can also stop by Barb's Bakery for a delicious cinnamon roll!

This wonderful area is worth the drive! Travel north from Suttons Bay along the M-22 corridor that curves around the Bay through vineyards and orchards to the picturesque Village of Northport. It is a 45-minute drive to the Sleeping Bear Dunes or Traverse City. Just north of Northport are hiking trails and the Leelanau State Park.

Terrific place we've stayed at many times

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: An excellent location that is within a few blocks of the beach, the marina, the town's one grocery store, and its half-dozen dining choices. Clean and quiet, with both a porch to sit on and an outside dining area. Our only two issues were that the coffee machine needs to be replaced as it is old and stained, and the lack of ice cube trays in the freezer.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Northport Retreat was a perfect place for our family! We had 4 other cottages rented in Northport for a big family reunion! Loved the location, we walked everywhere! We went to the beach, pickleball courts, Barbs, NPG, The Mitten, Yard and Lake, Music in the Park, Icd Cream, Dog Parade, rented e-bikes and of course Tom’s for anything and everything we needed! What I liked best about the cottage was the front porch and back deck and the side yard was big enough for yard games that we brought. I’d definitely rent again!

Wonderful Fall Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a fall weekend with friends at the property and enjoyed it immensely. The house is located on a quiet side street within a few minutes’ walk of all the shops, bars and restaurants in Northport. It was very clean and well furnished and quite spacious for 8 people. Northport is nicely situated for touring Leelanau Peninsula wineries. We would definitely consider another visit in the future. We wished we could have made more use of the two porches as the weather in October was cool and a little wet.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we had a great stay at this location. It was close to town, close to the other properties that others were staying at, and close to the beach! You could even see the water at the end of our street! Everyone in the area is very friendly. I would highly recommend the community of Northport to anyone who wants a quiet getaway with friends and family. This house was just the icing on the cake. Lots of room for everyone who was there, and for friends to come over for a visit. Great outdoor seating. A cute little kitchen to cook in. Lots of dining space. If we head back up anytime soon, we will definitely be staying here again.

Adorable Northport Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I was so pleased with everything about this adorable house! It's surprisingly spacious, with 4 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. Perfect layout for a 2 family rental where kids could sleep in the twin bedrooms upstairs, and parents could sleep in the larger beds downstairs. Very close to downtown, literally about a 5 minute walk. I've stayed in a lot of vacation rentals, and this was, without questions, the nicest rental I've ever stayed in. Immaculately maintained, beautifully updated, clean furniture, appliances were clean and in good working order, and while there were plenty of kitchenwares (plates, bowls, glasses, etc) the cabinets weren't overflowing with random gadgets, so you could actually have a place to put a few groceries!I would absolutely recommend this to a friend, and would rent this property again.

Charming, immaculate home in quiet North Port

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of seven, four adults and three children spent a week in this charming, immaculate home located two blocks from the local beach and downtown North Port. The neighborhood is quiet and homes well maintained with lovely gardens. We could view the stars at night and take a short drive to local park to view sunset over Lake Michigan. House was immaculate with well stocked kitchen. Lovely porch for reading and conversations and beautiful flower gardens. Deck with table and six chairs made for eating outdoors. Family enjoyed playing bumper pool in the house and attended the free Friday night concert at the North Port harbor. We have been vacationing on the Leelanau Peninsula for 12 years and this location provided great access to all our favorite destinations. We hope to return next summer as this was a very special home located in such a friendly, welcoming community.
