We enjoyed the great downtown location with a view of the beach! When we arrived the space had not been cleaned but the manager immediately responded and sent a housekeeper. The kitchen was well stocked and bed very comfortable. We highly recommend!

This has been our go to rental for many years. We love its location and its size. Just right for 2 people. We needed to reach out to Visit Up North for a maintenance issue and they are the best at coming through with help in no time at all.

Enjoyed our 2 week stay this year. The Upper Cottage needs some renovation. Lots of small things stopped working during our visit, eg smoke alarm, hair dryer, coffee pot etc., most of which were replaced by helpful VUN staff.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 July 2025
We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We did bring a new coffee maker, and hair dryer. We appreciate you kind comments.
Location could not be beat - right behind library, beach & marina! Easy check in & info from manager made locating it easy. Short walk to shops, restaurants & right on the beautiful Tart trail for bike riding!But the apartment is pretty dated: rusty porch furniture, squidgy carpet, hard water stained bathroom & really gives the feeling of staying in someone else’s home - especially as the stairs to main floor are semi-open with a doggy gate & fake plant sitting on the stairwell & a hollow core door added halfway down that lets all noise from downstairs float up…We were happy for the spot on the Leelenau peninsula that we love & visit often, but will be looking to stay somewhere else in the future.

Suttons Bay hits all the right notes! Thank you for sharing your experience!
Nice, clean, roomy spot for a couple that wants a view of the beach. The backside/bedroom is closer to the main drag but it wasn't noisy at all. Suttons Bay is a nice/close alternative to the commotion of TC.
