Great Stay for Fall Colors
Very cute cottage in a great location in Suttons Bay. Short walk to docks, beach and town. We hit this at just the right time for a fall color long weekend. Definitely would recommend.

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.

The Coral Shutter Cottage is perfect for a weekend get a way! The accommodations are just as you see the pics on line, right in town to walk to restaurants & shops, the beach is right behind it so can walk to as well. There is a lovely winery right across the street, the others are a short drive. We enJOY’d our time in Suttons Bay!!

Needs to be updated especially carpet should be replaced with vinyl flooring.especially since pet friendly would be more appealing instead of carpet with spots on it & throw rug in kitchen area that is easy to trip on & fall.It wouldn't" take much to update.

Disappointing
Thermostat was not working too cold. The bed was most uncomfortable and soft . We both then slept on the sofa bed which was not big enough. We left early because I did not want to stay another night. We will not return to stay there ever. Sweet Cherry was neither🤔

Hard to beat value for the location
Location is easily the best part of this property. Setup as a studio, great for a couple get away, likely not a family with kids. Only confusing part was controlling the temp inside, there are 2 remotes and a wall thermostat. Only one of the remotes changes the temp in the studio, the other remote and wall thermostat are powered up, but don’t do anything.. You can walk to everything in Suttons Bay. Out the back door, you can be to the water in 2 minutes.

Intimate Getaway
It snowed the entire time we were there but it didn't matter. We were cozy and warm, exploring the restaurants, bookstore, artisan shops or just sitting in the cottage reading. It was lovely.
