Water view and condition of propety was great, as well as the location to Sutton's Bay. Bit of a hiccup figuring out the game room was in another adjoining residence.

Point Sunnyside in Sutton's Bay was perfect for our girls wine weekend getaway. The home is absolutely beautiful and has everything you need for your stay. Our favorite things were the campfires on the beach and the morning sunrises over the bay. Check this place out you will not be disappointed.

The house was amazing. Views of the lake were beautiful. We really enjoyed our time at the house. The owners were very accommodating regarding changing our check in and check out times. They were also easy to get ahold of and were very responsive when texting with them.

We had a great time. The location of the house both on the bay and the orchards is just idyllic. The house is beautiful with every detail considered- even fresh flowers. Debbie is a fantastic host and suggested places for us to visit - all of which were great. For anyone looking for a cottage experience up north this is perfect.

This is the most incredible home with an unmatched location on the bay.

Pristine lakefront home
Our family of four adults thoroughly enjoyed our first stay at this beautiful Sutton’s Bay home. The recent updates make this home feel brand new. Well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and sparkling clean bathrooms inside, with lovely deck, dock and beach area to view the lake outside. Enjoy watching the sunrise across the bay! We can’t wait to return next year.

Thank you so much for the complimentary review - we sure do appreciate it. You were great guests and will be looking forward to seeing you again next year (and, hopefully, many more).

This home was amazing - well stocked, well decorated, and spotlessly clean. Deb was a joy to work with and this is one of the nicest rental experiences we've ever had. We loved the beach with the fire pit and the kayaks, paddle boards, and bikes. We loved watching the birds and chipmunks and the amazing lake views. There are lots of places close by to visit but being at the house was our favorite part of this trip. Highly recommended!

We would highly recommend this home for anyone looking for stunning views of Sutton’s Bay. The house was beautifully furnished, spotless and well stocked with everything you could need.

Photos of this beautiful cottage were impressive, but when we walked in for the first time, wow!!
Six good friends so enjoyed the time we spent relaxing down by the fire pit (enjoying a glass of wine). We didn’t want to leave. Thank you to our hostess. We’ll be returning, no doubt.

Thank you so much for your sweet and thoughtful review and for choosing our cottage for your special week. We would love to have you all back anytime.
This is the second time we have stayed at this special property. Quiet, with a lovely view of Grand Traverse Bay West. We like that it is fairly close to Sutton's Bay with all the fun, boutique-like shops. The house was impeccably clean and appointed to make a fresh, relaxing environment. A lot of love has gone into the house and grounds. Debbie is a wonderful, host--always helpful and accessible. Very upbeat, helpful, positive and cheerful in all her communications. I highly recommend with property for a truly relaxing, beautiful visit.

You and your husband have been such a pleasure to work with... I hope you always come back to see "your MI home"... away from home. Because of guest like you ... I LOVE my job!
Myself and a group of girls enjoyed this property in early May for a bachelorette party - this house was perfect, we couldn't have asked for more. As soon as you turn down the driveway you feel "at home." The house is beautifully decorated and feels clean and cozy. The bedrooms were all wonderful and 2 of them come with breathtaking views of the water. Deb was an amazing host - she reached out as soon as I booked and offered up recommendations for restaurants and activities. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back!
