Great long weekend!

Everything from checking in to checking out was perfect. The house had everything we needed. It was in a great location and felt like we were tucked out of the way, in the woods, with a beautiful view of the lake! We also weren’t that far from shops and great restaurants. We had a nice long relaxing weekend and enjoyed the peaceful location! Thank you for letting us stay!

Relaxing Getaway

Love North Shore Cherry Cove was a perfect place for our getaway. Location is great for exploring the Leelanau peninsula. Traverse city is only 15 minutes south. Aaron is a gracious host. Your privacy is his priority. The home is spacious, clean, and filled with all the little touches that welcome you in. You truly feel right at home. The beach is very nice. We had a great fire and enjoyed the new gazebo. Hot tub was wonderful after our daily outings. We did not use the sauna but plan to during our next stay. Thank you Aaron!

Beautiful and cozy winter getaway

The location was perfect with a beautiful view of the bay from the living room and kitchen. We enjoyed relaxing and playing games in front of the fireplace and were even more excited to soak in the hot tub on the cold winter nights. We were able to make our own dinners and breakfasts easily in the kitchen because it was stocked with every item we needed. We would definitely come back again!

Cozy winter getaway

The snow was piled up and we were nice and cozy inside our getaway. The hot tub was wonderful as we gazed up at the stars and watched the falling snow drape the trees in the forest behind the home. The view out the front was of the partially frozen Lake Michigan. The perfect getaway!!

Perfect location on the shore

House was spacious and clean, great for families. The beach and access to the water was great - had a campfire multiple nights under star filled skies and the Milky Way. Suttons Bay has lots of restaurant options and the house is a short drive from lots of attractions and wineries.

Weekend getaway

Me and the husband weekend getaway for my 50th birthday. Easy checkin, friendly host, exceptionally clean. We had a great, relaxing time. Good location for many local attractions. Beds were comfortable. We did not use the hot tub or sauna… but thoroughly enjoyed the cozy fireplace. Would definitely stay here again if we get back to this area of Michigan. Thanks Aaron!!

About the host

Hosted by Aaron

Host profile image
I grew up in metro Detroit, downriver. Graduating from the University of Michigan, and worked with the airlines for 30 years. My time is divided between Traverse city, and metro Detroit. You may find me working on the property, or packing for my next trip, as i am always on the go! I love kayaking, hiking and learning, with a special devotion to yoga.

Why they chose this property

West Grand Traverse Bay is a very powerful body of water. South Lee Point Road holds an energy of welcoming comfort and calm peaceful serenity. The property is surrounded by mature forest of cedar and oak. The crystal clear stream flows year round spilling into the bay, providing a cool aliveness of fresh woodsy wilderness. The cottage is tucked back into the shade of the trees, while the white sandy beach rests in full sun all day.

What makes this property unique

The view from both the family room and kitchen are so amazing! As the trees are as much of the experience as the bay itself.
Other benefits include: use of the gazebo, dock , kayaks , and paddle boards.
