We were so impressed with The Grand View 2 @ Willow Winery. The property is stunning, and we were so comfortable in the large, well-appointed space. It's a beautiful and spacious property, the views were gorgeous, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Tracy and Harry were very attentive and ensured we had whatever we needed during our stay. The private wine tour was cool and they were very open with suggestions on where we should visit. I can't say enough on how wonderful our weekend was.

Exceptional location, views, & wine!

Staying at Willow Winery was the highlight of our trip to Leelanau. The views are absolutely stunning—rolling vineyards, Lake Michigan in the distance, and some of the best sunsets we’ve seen. It’s just a few minutes from Suttons Bay, so you get peace and quiet without being far from anything.What really made the stay special was Tracy and Harry. They’re the kind of hosts who make you feel right at home—genuine, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they’ve created here. Can’t wait to come back.

Unique vineyard experience

We wanted to stay away from the crowds. The home was unique, in a marvelous location and the hosts were communicative and gracious with their time…and gave us a “behind the scenes” look at the winery. Perfect place and a fun experience.

Gorgeous Location and Wonderful Hospitality

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Vineyard VRBO! The owner, Tracy, could not have been more thoughtful. She really made us feel like special guests. The home and property are absolutely stunning! So convenient to both Traverse City and Sutton’s Bay. We loved the view as we drank coffee in the morning and again at night with a glass of wine. Highly recommended!!

Willow winery vrbo

Beautiful view of winery and bay! I haven’t re-read listing, but getting bags from vehicle to the Vrbo was challenging- gravel road up a hill - challenging for 70 year olds. Down stairs was nicely done with first floor bedroom, bath, kitchen and living room. Upstairs bedroom didn’t feel as “finished”The owner was very hospitable!Thanks for the hospitality!

Michigan by way of France

We enjoyed our trip immensely thanks to the unparalleled view of the bay, sweet French style cottage, and Tracy’s wonderful recommendations for restaurants and activities. She ensured my husband and I enjoyed ourselves and was so thoughtful to bring games and treats much to the delight of our children. We have loved sharing the incredible wines with our friends. Cheers to next year!

Stunning Winery Girls Escape with Bay ViewsThis property is a dream! Set on a peaceful vineyard with incredible views of the bay, it’s the perfect escape. The home is well maintained and fully equipped with everything we needed. Mornings on the patio chairs with coffee were magical, and evenings with local wine were unforgettable. The private beach was amazing. The water is great for swimming (just bring your water shoes).The hosts were welcoming and helpful. It felt like a luxury getaway with all the comforts of home. The town of Sutton’s Bay is about 12 minutes away. We didn’t want to leave—can’t wait to return for another girls trip! Thank you Tracy and to our friends at Willow Winery!

Incredible Stay

This is SUCH a special place to stay. The house itself is gorgeous and spacious with a very well-equipped kitchen for anyone who loves to cook. The winery is stunning and you can't beat the views of the lake. One of our favorite moments was laying out on the grassy hill stargazing late at night - the skies were so clear we were able to see Saturn with our binoculars! We had the best wedding weekend we could imagine and are already talking about coming back for anniversaries. Thank you Tracy for being an amazing host and going above and beyond to make sure we had a good time.

Once in a Lifetime

This was hands down, the most incredible rental I’ve ever experienced. It was indescribably beautiful and unique. Tracy is by far the most kind, thoughtful, and wonderful host/human you’ll ever meet. I could go on for hours about her. The “from the vines to the wines tour” was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen! We loved every second of our stay. And i cannot wait to return

Family Getaway

Our family spent 4th of July weekend at Willow Winery. The vineyard is gorgeous! We had a relaxing weekend hanging out on the patios at Willow and visiting the nearby towns of Sutton’s Bay and Leland. The whole family enjoyed the from vines to wines tour. It was very informative. . Tracy and Harry are very accommodating hosts! They answered all of our questions and were very passionate about their wine. I would recommend a stay at Willow Winery if you get the chance. You won’t regret your decision.

40th Birthday Retreat

What a fun way to spend my 40th birthday. House was great for my girlfriends and I… amazing view that I could not get enough of… Grand traverse bay, the moon, the vineyard… loved it! Definitely a great work out to get up and down to the house but all worth it for that view! Tracy is the best, very accommodating and welcomed us with a wine tasting and her son took our stuff to the house, very thankful for that! All needs were met, and everyone had a great time! The private off site beach was perfect for a lazy afternoon. Highly recommend if you love great views and great wine!

Phenomenal Vineyard Sanctuary

My sister and I..with our 3 boys spent three days at this fantastic property. Details are everything to me and this did not disappoint. From the linens..to the gift bags for the boys..to the private winery tour. The views are so amazing, no photo can capture the experience of this place. It was the perfect place to make memories. The boys loved climbing the hill to the chairs in the evening, it was magical. Tracy was the most gracious and helpful hostess. She was such a delight to meet. To stay there is a gift. So grateful we were able to be a part of it. Thanks Tracy!! ❤️👑

Best View

We loved our stay at Willow Winery. The cottage was charming with many historical features such as the master bedroom door. It has ample outdoor space to drink in the view as well as the wine. The beds were comfortable and the hosts were very generous with their wine, supplies and advice. An extra bonus was a personal tour of the winery which we loved and certainly started our trip off right! If I had any suggestions it would be to say there is no shower upstairs in the loft bedroom, and no dishwasher if you were staying longer and intended to cook every night. Also if you are not very mobile the walk way up to the house is steep and may be a problem. None of this kept us from having a wonderful time and we will most certainly be back. .
