Right on the Lake Michigan - walk to town and across from TART trail | Cottage in Suttons Bay
3 Bedroom Cottage in Suttons Bay
Comes with a paddle board and 8 bikes to use on the Leelanau Trail located right across the street! We also have some nets for fishing. This is the ideal location to walk to town, bike to town or start your day trip to the many locations on the peninsula.
This property is unique because it is so close to the shoreline. Lake Michigan's waters lap just a few feet from the house providing panoramic views of Lake Michigan, sunrises and sail boats floating in and out of the bay. Once you book, you will receive an interactive guide to the area with direct links for things to do.
We fancy this place as a little bit of country (rustic wooded area) and little bit of rock and roll (Lake Michigan waves). In this complicated world, life is simple here.
This home is just north of Suttons Bay on Lake Michigan. This hone was built in the 50’s by a ship captain who sailed the Great Lakes. He wanted to feel like he was on the water while he was in his home. We think he picked the perfect spot. The property is tucked on a piece of land that provides panoramic views of Lake Michigan while waves lap against the shoreline just a few feet from the house. Sitting on the spacious covered porch feels like you are sitting on the water. Each of the three bedrooms provides lake views. We found an old sign in the garage and believe he named this home the “Admiralty Haus”.
Enjoy the beach and pull up an Adirondack chair to relax by the fire pit to star gaze in the evening or rest after a swim in the shallow waters. There is an additional wood deck with a gas grill where you can relax while cooking or do morning yoga. You will see ducks, loons, herons, hawks and eagles swim and fly by and if you are into rock hunting, Lake Michigan delivers Petoskey stones (look for them after a storm), Charlevoix rocks and other beautiful rocks. Take a walk to the local toy store Enerdyne to get rock polishing supplies and take a look at the rocks on display to help inspire your search.
There is something for everyone here. If you want more activity, across the street you will find the TART trail. That is a paved trail you can hop on to walk or bike into town (local shop provides bike rentals in case you don’t bring your own). The trail is a total of 18 miles long stretching all the way to Traverse City winding through beautiful farms, vineyards and hop lots. The Village of Suttons Bay has local shops, restaurants, ice cream parlors and two spacious public beaches. Hansen’s grocery store is a little over a mile away, dozens of wineries are within minutes of this location, Traverse City is 14 miles south, Leland, Lake Leelanau, Glen Arbor and Northport are easy and beautiful drives less than 20 minutes away. Be sure to visit the farm markets, parks, movie theaters, hiking trails, vineyards and distilleries. This is a wonderful, family friendly community.
Need to remote work? Two bedrooms are equipped with a desk/workspace so you can work remotely. We provide an additional computer monitor with an HDMI hook up to your computer.
This cottage provides breathtaking views, relaxation and comfort year round.
The cottage sleeps up to 8 people. It includes three plus bedrooms, two full baths and one half bath. One bedroom on the main level includes a queen sized bed and an attached bathroom with a stand up shower. Two other bedrooms are on the second floor and are spacious. One bedroom features a king bed and a large closet for storage. The other bedroom features a queen size bed and two built in twin beds with two twin trundle beds. We just completed a renovation that includes a rebuilt covered porch with Trex decking, restored the original knotty pine wood inside the home, remodeled the bedroom with built in beds and trundle beds and a fresh coat of paint inside and out. This home does not provide air conditioning but Mother Nature does and for the really hot evenings, we provide plenty of fans to pull in the fresh air. We enjoy night swims as a family to cool off on the really hot and humid days before bed.
The cottage offers a well appointed and functional kitchen, a porch, a deck, gas grill, coffee maker, smart TVs in the living room and in the new bedroom – We provide access to sign into Netflix, Disney+, etc. We have a selection of family games. This is our own family vacation home so we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
