Great Location - Right on the Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Was sufficient for a couple of people - clean and great location in a quaint town. Parking information needs more detail - neighbor VERY UNFRIENDLY even though no signage saying not to use drive - which I did for 5 minutes at the very end of stay.

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!

It is a comfortable and very attractive little cottage. We enjoyed the fact that we could cook a meal. They are not have to go out every time. The location is wonderful and we plan to come back in the fall. Thank you.

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 .

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.
