Stay in Suttons Bay

We fell in love with this cabin during our stay in Suttons Bay. We ended up extending our vacation a few days because we couldn't get over the location and the surrounding area was very nice.

Cherry Festival visit!

I loved staying at this property! If you’re looking for something more on the rustic side but with the amenities you need, this is the place. Very peaceful and quiet and a perfect place to relax. While there wasn’t a beach, the access to the bay was easy to navigate. A short 25 min drive to downtown TC, or a 2.3 mile walk into downtown Suttons Bay, made this location really great for us. Our only wishes had been a bit more parking and a place for our boat, but this was definitely the best place to unplug and unwind.
