Great location to get around the area. The rental was ideal for the 2 of us getting to either Leelanau or TC. Nice to have Thai restaurant on site with some wine/cider to wash it down. We enjoyed fires most nights in the firepit, looking up in the clear night sky.

Great Location and Friendly Folks

The location is ideal, being at the center of the leelanau wine scene, and right across from the bay. Everyone at the location was very friendly. (And the restaurant's Thai Pizza was excellent!)

Very clean, apartment not fancy but well appointed, staff wonderful. Let us borrow lawn chairs to take to Suttons Bay municipal beach. Restaurant very good, wine for sale good too. 10 minutes south of Suttons Bay. Close to the highway, living area has no windows to enjoy a view. The “beach” across the highway vastly over rated.

Perfect Location

This location was exactly as pictured. It had everything we needed. The host was great. We were even able to order food from the restaurant on site and they delivered right to our door. The chicken alfredo pizza was fantastic and the peach and honey wine was excellent. The location was perfect for getting to all the fun places to see in the area. We would definitely stay again!

Our Michigan Vacay

Great place for a trip to Michigan. The location is perfect. The lodging was very clean, spacious and comfortable. Having wine tasting and really good food on site is a big plus. We will be coming back next time we are up north in Michigan.

Convenient location

The rental was great, perfect location and the thai food was delicious. There was a portable air conditioner in the bedroom which worked for me as i usually have a box fan, but the rental kept cool even during a 85-90 degree weekend. Super easy check in.

Weekend Getaway

Very clean and spacious apartment. We stayed for a long weekend, but certainly could have enjoyed the place for a whole week. The location allows for easy travel to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Suttons Bay or TC. However there’s quite a bit to do onsite with a restaurant, wine tasting room, and even a little beach across the road.

Perfect spot for two

My friend and I were looking for a girls weekend getaway to Suttons Bay. The apartment was just as it appeared, but exceeded our expectations. The place was immaculate and met all of our needs without issue. The staff was very friendly and Richard and Salve were wonderful hosts. The attached Thai restaurant was our favorite of all of the places we dined that weekend! We really appreciate Richard and Salve for the wonderful stay and are looking forward to our next trip up there. We will definitely be back!
