Cute little place close to a lot of things to do! Check in process was easy and we enjoyed our stay. I only have 2 suggestions, neither of which affected our stay. 1. Maybe a power strip in the bedroom. There is only 1 accessible plug on one side of the bed. 2. Maybe a couple of little throw blankets for the couch on a chilly morning. It was a great stay and we would definitely stay here again!

This was a great place to settle in for exploring the Leelanau Peninsula…very close to Suttons Bay, Leland, and Northport, and not far from Traverse City and Glen Arbor. The building is a bit old and a little funky but the unit itself was recently updated, freshly painted, and ultra clean; bed linens were lovely and towels were plentiful. Has everything you need for a comfortable stay!

Check in was good, very easy, room was clean, however the amenities was poor, the bathroom had sample size lotions, and whatever else was in the other bottles, the bottles were half full with ?, the instant coffee was 1/2 full and hard as a rock, the sugar was in a unsealed bowl and we didn’t know what or who could have put something else in there, the t.v. had good channels but was mounted so high up on the wall after a while your neck was soar, the couch was very uncomfortable, it felt like you the couch was to high in the back and you were slipping off . We loved how quiet it was there, no noise from M22 or Hilltop Rd, the surroundings were nice, all in all it was nice.

For what we needed for the weekend, we absolutely had everything we needed and it was very clean. The only thing we had any problem with was the tv and how to use the remote control. That could have been a function of our age and technical knowledge. I'm a boomer. Parking was great, location was great, it was quiet,and the Thai restaurant was so good. We will use it again.

The property was wonderful, exactly as described. A great option for a couple. All the rooms were well appointed and with enough space to be relaxing. The area is near enough to Traverse City to be convenient but far enough from the crowds there. Suttons Bay was an unexpected gem.

The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed, especially a washer and dryer. We stayed 3 weeks. The location was easily accessible to everything on Leelanau Pennisula. We were able to ride our eBikes to the Bike Trail and on to Sutton’s Bay and back.

Great Location! Comfortable Apartment!

This apartment had everything we needed. We love having a fully stocked kitchenette for breakfast. The location is great since it was close enough for trips to Traverse City and close enough to Suttons Bay for our favorites bike trail, L Mawby and Hop Lot.
