Vacation rentals with a kayak in Suttons Bay Township

It was exactly as James and Sena described the place. It was a quick drive to Traverse City but far enough away for peacefulness. James and Sena responded to our request for the heat to be turned up right away. They had snacks and all the amenities you could ever want. They also let us take home one of their ceramic pieces which was really sweet of them. (only the ones from the bathroom closet though - don't take their décor.) Diane and Mark Dawdy

The hosts were very responsive and communicative. The AC kind of went out and the hosts promptly got someone out to fix it. The setting was beautiful! We enjoyed a couple days on the boat (Northaire rentals), then did day trips to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island and then a down day with the kayaks and SUP. My husband enjoyed fishing off the Dockside Pier. We enjoyed ice cream at Moomers, local cider at Royal Farms and our best meal at Toonie’s for Friday fish fry. Us southerners should have been better prepared for colder water and later seasons. The longer days also threw us for a loop but still a great first trip to Michigan!

Cozy place with a great view of the lake. Perfect location for our annual fishing trip to the Traverse City area.

House location was 12/10. Couldn’t have asked for a better home base. Walking distance to trails and sits right on the lake. Kids loved playing in and on the water with the kayaks provided. Would highly recommend the home to family and friends and would stay here anytime our family returns to the area. House was as advertised and Joe was very responsive and offered local trails and areas to eat.

Pure heaven! One of the most peaceful, beautiful, and comfortable stays we’ve had! Pristine interior with outstanding views of lake, every amenity (including beach toys) we could have wanted. The perfect couples getaway to recharge our batteries. Would be great for young families too. Bass Lake is divine for kayaking among the lily pads and loons, watching the sunsets, or just chilling on the deck. My husband was pouting all the way home as we hated to leave. Check-in was super easy, everything was top notch start to finish. Can’t wait to rebook next year.

I was incredibly happy with our stay here and felt right at home. This might sound silly, but I love that they leave all of their cleaning supplies there so I could clean and vacuum throughout the week. I also loved how there was a closet with hangers, empty dressers, and a clothes hamper. I didn't have to feel like I was living out of my suitcase. I loved the design of the house, especially the kitchen. It's what really set this home apart from others for me. We brought our own paddle boards but the water was still pretty cold, so we opted to use the kayaks Brandi provided instead. We so appreciated that and it was such a short drive to the water! I would definitely stay here again.

From beginning to the end of our stay, this home was exactly what we wanted for a private celebration. There were 7 of us and we each really liked this place. We could walk to town which was super fun or just hang out in the backyard . Some of us did the sauna and some just sat around the bonfire. As we were sitting there several times deer walked by. It was in town but felt very secluded and peaceful. Highly recommend and would stay here again

This place is one of a kind and truly the pinnacle experience when it comes to travel

Omg, I don’t have the words for how awesome this place is. First, it is exactly what you see in the pictures and more. Second, it’s not far from anything and third, it’s so peaceful. I could get lost in pure bliss there. Weather I was in the hot tub, the porch, at the table on the deck, the fire pit, the dock, or even just sitting on the beach collecting rocks. Absolute Heaven. I’ve even told the rest of my family that next time we go to Michigan, we’re going to Traverse City and we’re staying at this house. Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. Thank you!

We truly enjoyed our stay. The property was stunning! We wished for better weather to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boats, but that was nothing that could’ve been controlled. We did enjoy a fire in the pit. The lake view was beautiful. Jake was very pleasant and made sure we were taken care of. Thank you!

My husband and I took our pup to this place to celebrate Thanksgiving and loved the amazing spacious kitchen! The view was incredible (even during a blizzard!) and we felt right at home. The hosts were extremely responsive and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely home ; Well appointed, plenty of room and great beach! Everything we could want !

Incredible hosts and a breathtaking riverside property! The cozy wood-burning fireplace and outdoor stone sauna create the perfect atmosphere for a serene and rejuvenating winter retreat.

Such a great place, we really enjoyed it and it was a great spot to bring our little kids and dog! We hope to return next year!

This is our second time staying at Laurie’s Airbnb and we love it. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the winter wonderland up there. Laurie is very communicative and very helpful. The place is comfy and we love that we can bring our dogs!

I stayed in this cottage by myself for a few days to work on a writing project. The beautiful private lake is an idyllic setting, the cottage is comfortable and quiet, and Laurie is an excellent, responsive host. Highly recommended!

We had a great time at the cabin, the hosts and cabin are top notch and would highly recommend this place to anyone considering.

We had a great weekend. The cabin is lovely. We hiked at the nearby nature area, fished in the lake & surrounding areas, and explored downtown. We made breakfasts and dinners at the cabin and the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were all comfortable. We enjoyed the variety of boats available.

The house was perfect, very clean and comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils and pots and pans. We would definitely recommend this place and will stay again if it’s available when we plan to come north.

We recently stayed at this breathtaking Airbnb, and I can’t say enough about how perfect it was! The location offers stunning panoramic views—whether you’re enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning or watching the sunset in the evening, the scenery is simply unforgettable. The house itself is beautifully well-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. After a long day, we gathered around the firepit to enjoy the warmth and make s’mores. It was a magical way to end the evenings, and the hosts provided all the tools and ingredients we needed to make the experience perfect. This place is truly a peaceful retreat and has all the comforts you could ask for. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a mix of nature, comfort, and a memorable stay! Amanda's kindness and care for their guests made us feel welcome. She went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable. A wonderful host who made sure our family vacation would be memorable and special.

We loved Dave's place! The house was very comfortable and access to the lake was excellent. My family loved being able to fish and play in the lake when we weren't out sight seeing in Traverse City. We had the resort all to ourselves the week we were there, so it was our own private oasis!

Michael was very responsive. He had courtesy to text before coming to the cabin. He has a great personality and very friendly. The cottage was beautiful, clean and peaceful which is what we were looking for . We had such a relaxing time that we are planning for next years trip and staying there. We had cottage 1 and what a beautiful view of the lake. My husband was able to fish with boat provided and enjoyed himself.. Overall wonderful experience. Thank you Michael.

We stayed the weekend for our anniversey and it was so peaceful! Loved all the views from inside the house. My husband loved being able to step outside and fish. Would definitely book again.

Great location, Cabin was very clean and well organized. Brian was the perfect host, communication was excellent, informative and super helpful. I would definitely book here again.
