About this property

Cabin in the Village

This is a rustic cabin, original to the heart of Suttons bay, within one block of the marina, sand beach and public park/playground area .
The cabin is mid-century craftsman style with an open living room and kitchen floor plan - hardwood floors, knotty pine walls, and log beamed vaulted ceilings. It has 2 Bedrooms; one with a queen bed and the second has a full size bed. The kitchen is fully equipped. There is one full bath with tub shower combo. There is a flat screen TV in the living room with cable and WIFI included. Linens and paper products are also included. There are screens on several of the windows as well as window air conditioning. The outdoor deck includes a small charcoal grill, patio furniture and umbrella; a perfect place to relax with a glass of local wine from one of the many nearby wineries.
The Cabin in the Village is located on the alleyway next to the Village Water Wheel Park tennis and basketball courts-1/2 block from M-22.
It is a fun, casual place for families vacationing in Leelanau County. Walk out your door and you are just steps away from the beach, the park (mentioned above), shops, bars, restaurants, boutiques, ice cream, movie theatre, art galleries, antique stores and more….

Great customer service!

As soon as we arrived, we realized there was a broken toilet seat and lid. I contacted the host. Her response was quick as was her arrival to fix the problem. 5 stars for customer service alone.

Good private cabin in downtown Suttons Bay.

Great place to stay for our long weekend. Everything about the property was as advertised and clean. It’s dated and lacks some space in the bathroom and 2nd bedroom, but we would stay again.

Great spot right in the heart of Leelanau

We had a great stay at this spot in Sutton’s Bay. It’s close to wineries, Traverse City, and all the sights. The parking is a little scant, but it’s all the location allows for.

Great fun!

A lovely, simple, cute cabin tucked into the town of Suttons Bay. It had everything we needed and it was fun to be steps away from the beach, marina, and all of the cute shops and restaurants. Easy drive to the other nearby towns and beaches. Would recommend if you don’t need fancy. Just a nice, cozy place to stay.

A relaxing two day away!

It was great and well worth our get away. The cabin was clean and had all the amenities that were needed. Shopping and eating downtown was in walking distance from the cabin. Walking the pier by the Marina was so relaxing. The owner was the best. Very supportive and most appreciated in an unexpected situation.

Great location in Suttons Bay

Location is fabulous for beach, town and TART. Cabin has musty smell typical for lake area; lightly scented candles and opening screened windows helped. We kept blinds up to let light in after we gave the windows an amateur cleaning. Really made a difference. A/C is good. is great for am coffee/happy hour.

Convenient quaint cabin

Funky old place that evoked memories of little cottages we stayed at up north as kids. The place was clean and comfortable, and had all we needed for an enjoyable weekend. Right in the center of town and a short walk to shops and restaurants. Host was very responsive, calling back to a few questions we had shortly after arriving. The cabin is on a narrow paved alley. Parking spot was just big enough for the Edge, being clear of the alley and leaving enough room to walk onto the porch. If we'd had the F150 I may have had to park out on the street.

Suttons Bay Cottage

Overall this property was just what was expected. A very rustic cottage within a block from the shops and close to the beach. My only issue was the lack of towels for four people for four nights. We had one wash cloth. I had to use dish cloths to bath the children. Also, be sure to bring EVERYTHING needed for cooking (except salt and pepper). Pans were present, few glasses for drinks for several people. Beds were comfortable but couches, not so much.

Terrible! Had to find a new place.

When we arrived after a difficult drive thru construction traffic my husband and I were exhausted. When we opened to door of this run down shack, squeezed between buildings in a back alley, we were horrified. It’s filthy, dilapidated and smells strongly of mold. The windows have no screens so we couldn’t even open the windows. The property manager did not answer our calls. Fortunately a very kind VRBO rep agreed to give us a full refund so we could get a hotel, but since we were in town for our son’s wedding that meant we had to stay much further away than we wanted to. Do not book this place. It is just a dumpy old building someone is using to grift money. The photos on the site are not at all accurate.

This was our second stay at Carol’s cabin, and we enjoyed it just as much as we did a few years ago. The location is absolutely perfect for walking around Sutton’s Bay as well as getting around for day trips in the area. Everything was well stocked and all of the amenities we could want were available. Thank you for another wonderful stay!

Our stay was in late August with unseasonal chilly temperatures. This unit has no heat or, at best, no user friendly heat. Linens and towels should have been changed out for newer sets years ago. Bathroom is tiny. Shower has no hand holds and nothing to help prevent slips and falls. One parking spot provided with dilapidated step and entry-way. (a litigious person's dream stay). Other family members stayed elsewhere with a much different experience, so nice accommodations can be found in Suttons Bay, just not here.

We’d do this again!

My daughter and I spent a week here in July and had such a great time together. The cabin is just as pictured and is such a great place to explore Sutton’s Bay and the peninsula. Lots of thoughtful little touches included (even a little screwdriver in a kitchen drawer that saved my sunglasses, and games, a puzzle…). Check in was easy. All the details we needed were provided in app. We never needed to contact the host but I’ve no doubt she would have been available and helpful
Lovely lush plantings around a well appointed little patio.
Looking from St Joseph (the Main Street) towards the cottage. So close to lots of fun!

Location is excellent. Cabin is comfortable. Refrigerator was noisy. Right next to a public pick ball court and host was kind enough to obtain paddles and a ball so that we could play.
