About the host
Hosted by Rick & Karin

We're not good at talking about ourselves. However, we know people who are good at it. Anyway, here goes... our Windrush Beach House has been in our family for many generations and is a real jewel. Enjoy!
Why they chose this property
Very few cottages in Suttons Bay have a sandy swimming beach with no rocks and we are lucky to be one that has a beautiful beach when lake levels are down. We are also an easy walk to town.
What makes this property unique
This is not you typical rental with a private library and beautiful finishes that make you feel right at home.
