We (my 75 yr old parents, 2-yr old son, and mehusband) had an amazing stay at White Fence. Mike is extremely responsive and answered any questions or concerns very quickly. The private, GROUND LEVEL (i.e. not having to climb 50 steps), was wonderful for my mobility-challenged father and my toddler son. The proximity to Suttons Bay town (2-min walk to great grocery store, and 5-min walk to the 'main strip') is also excellent, and it serves as a great base to explore other great spots within 15-30 min drive. The only thing you should be aware of and prepared for is the noise the M-22 makes during the night, but this is easily dealt with by having the A/C on in the summer or wearing ear plugs. Again, the house is really wonderful and the slight separation we were able to achieve by housing ourselves in the main house and my parents in the other was actually really nice.

We have explored several northern Michigan towns and properties. Our family agreed that this was our favorite. The location of the house and beach is absolutely perfect. The town of Sutton’s Bay is adorable. And the proximity to Traverse City for a little louder evening is great as well. We biked to wineries, cherry stands, and the golf course. With a variety of ages and interests, everyone found something they loved. The house itself is adorable with 1 million places to hang out and enjoy the northern Michigan weather. In fair balance, it is an older house that’s been remodeled, so the rooms are a little choppy. It worked perfectly for our group to hang together, but also have time away. We highly recommend!

Great location, with beautiful beachfront. Very clean inside. Maybe the outside could use a little TLC
M 22 traffic can be noisy at night.

Unfortunately we had rainy weather, but the few sunny days we had were spent in the water for sure! The walk into town is effortless and a nice thing to do for breakfasts and or dinners and or shopping or biking! The trail for biking was wonderful, the town was great too! Hosts were amazing. Very responsive. If any issues come up, they bend over backwards to help. As hosts they get an 11 out of 10! For those having to work on vaca, we were in the carriage house and the internet was incredibly fast! Suttons Bay was such a nice change from the hustle and bustle of Traverse, but close enough to drive there with relative ease.
