This cute little cottage is just a few minutes' walk from the beach, and is located in the perfect area for exploring the Leelanau Peninsula! My family stayed here for a week with our dog, and really enjoyed the quiet, peaceful beach. There are plenty of dog-friendly restaurants with patios in Suttons Bay and Northport, so we had no problems finding nearby places to grab dinner. The mattresses could use updating and some of the kitchen items were in rough shape, but overall it was a nice place to stay and we had a great time!

Great location

The location was great. We enjoyed the close beach and water and grilling right at our vacation home. We loved downtown Northport for shopping and some meals. And it was so close to everything else for sight seeing, wine tasting, and more.

Beautiful location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the location, the peace and solace of it. The house was very clean,though it could use some updates: the windows stick and are difficult to close;a strip of wood with nails in it in the kitchen area is not securely attached; there were ants coming out of the bathtub faucet on our last day, and a fan in the bathroom would be so nice. Overall, it's a beautiful spot and everyone involved was very nice and helpful.

We had an excellent stay. The beachfront area is super private and provided great a shallow entrance with calm waters for the kid. Little one also loved the rock painting, games, and monkey bars next to the cottage. Easy check-in and check-out, good internet, and well-located relative to Omena and Northport. I do not understand the complaints about lack of A/C - this was clearly stated in the description, and it simply doesn't get that hot in northern MI.

Lakeside Cottage

Perfect little cottage. 6 of us didn’t need anything more. Clean, beautiful location, and quiet. Loved sitting by the water early in the morning. Glad we brought air mattress, fit well in the screened porch area.

Weekend getaway

The cottage looks exactly like the photos. It is small but very cute on the inside. We loved the screened in porch and the short walk to the beach that is on the property. It was very clean upon arrival. It probably could use some updates but we loved that there was a grill for the cottage and chairs to be outside.

Spur of the moment decision to vacay UP NORTH. Found this little dream cottage was open on our dates. Very clean and pleasantly decorated cottage with a beautiful screened in front porch. Close to many things we wanted to do and lovely little beach . Not so fond of the internet outage, but good communication with maintenance. Will be renting again if available.
