Enjoyed our time here. We did leave a book behind(we believe) if you could contact us @269-806-8443)I also left a message regarding lock-box and was concerned, as we left key on table and door unlocked. Let us know how we left your cabin and let us know you are receiving messages

Perfect Location and want to come back!

We loved it! Everything was as listed, bed was comfortable and there was an air mattress provided for a second place for someone to sleep. We did stay during the "off season" but talked about booking again "in season" when TC and Sutton's Bay are in full swing!

Great location! Everything we needed. Struggled getting the key out of lock box and coffee maker took an hour to brew were the only aggravations that we experienced here. The bed was fairly comfortable.

Perfect location, little TLC

Cute cottage, 2nd time staying there as the location is perfect, however the property needs a little TLC. Did not sit on the patio as the shrubs are overgrown and the small trellis for privacy is full of water and attracts bugs. Just a little attention to detail inside and out would make this property amazing!

A Great Place to Stay!

The red shutter cottage was an ideal place for us to stay for 4 nights in Sutton Bay. It has an ideal location just steps from restaurants, shops and a park which made everything easily accessible. The cottage is a very cute and cheery place that was clean, quiet and filled with all mentioned amenities. Communication with management was easy and they checked in with us to see that our stay was comfortable. Without reservation I highly recommend this VRBO location .

A few little things...

It was difficult getting the lock box open but quite easy to get the key back and the box locked when I left. The almost white carpet on the entire floor probably needs rethinking. Or there should be large mats in the kitchen area. I was extra careful because I noted there was no carpet spot cleaner under the sink. There is a large throw rug in the living room, but it has a large raised wrinkle in the center that is a tripping hazard. I would have smoothed it out, but the bed and sofa both rested on that rug and couldn't lift either. The amenities in the description says that the unit has wifi, but that's not quite true. Either point out clearly that internet access isn't always available or boost whatever access you have now. You do tell the truth in the info you sent to me 2 days before going up north, but that was a little too late. Lots of other residents near the cottage have wifi, so it is do-able. Other than that, my stay was great. My dog felt immediately comfortable and did not find any places in the cottage where other dogs may have had left their mark. She, of course, was perfect, but she has never had an accident since the first week I got her 5 years ago. The newly opened dog park was nice, as was access to the beach. She was a rock star when we walked past the shops down the street. Lots of people asked to pet her. And we were able to go into quite a few shops where she got even more attention. So, darling cottage and very pleasant town.
