Smoke alarms went off three times the first night and once the second night. Host originally stated that had never happened before, but admitted the second night that it happened before and an electrician said it was because of temperature differences, humidity, dust and mosquitoes. No one slept well for two nights and the safety issue knowing the smoke alarms were not functioning properly was not very calming. The Host did not appear to be too concerned about any of these issues. I have documentation of all correspondence related to this issue.

Front porch gem

The porch and location were our favorite. Quiet neighborhood located next to two churches. Front porch is a big yet peaceful hangout spot. House is very well decorated and updated. Easy walk to everything in town. Enjoyed shopping, restaurants, art fair, 15-min trip to Leland (must see if you’ve never been). Host was friendly and replied immediately to a couple needs with the house.

Very charming home! Great location within Suttons Bay. We were able to walk to anything we wanted to see. We had a couple of rainy days during our stay so we stayed at the house during that time which was fine with us! Great communication with the owner before and during our stay. Would definitely recommend!

May the porch be with you!

This house was ideal for our vacation. We spent hours chilling on the fabulous porch between our explorations around the peninsula. House has everything you could possibly need and the perfect blend of walkable to downtown/beach and quiet respite. Becky was an excellent communicator about everything. We’ve already booked for next summer.

Charming In-Town Oasis

We have a great time in the Sutton's Bay Stone House! The location was ideal to town, beach parks and biking trails. The house was very clean and we encountered no issues. The front porch was our favorite spot for games, food and relaxing. Truly a hidden gem!

100 year old stone cottage

the property was very nice. The location was great for us as we were half way between Traverse city and Northport in Sutton’s place. We usually enjoy being on the water but for this time of year it was perfect. My fault was thinking there was a fireplace for the cold days we were there for. Would have loved a fireplace but again I did not read the ad carefully enough but the cottage did stay nice and warm!!!!! This place would have been perfect for larger families!

The perfect location!

The Stone House had absolutely everything my group need. Was a couple blocks from town and an easy walk for shopping, visits to the water and restaurants. Had a great kitchen to cook in. A dining area for meals and games. A screened in porch for checking out the. neighborhood scene. And enough bedrooms and bathrooms for each couple to have their own space. Would definitely stay again
