We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location is perfect for anyone traveling to Traverse City, Suttons Bay or any Leelanau Peninsula location. The prpoerty was just as pictured, clean and well equipped. The hosts were welcoming and friendly. The setting is fantastic with seats at the end of the dock on the Bay, a fire pit and all that Northern Michigan feeling! We will stay here again! Highly recommend!

Best VRBO experience ever. The only thing I would update would be a queen size sleeper couch or a mattress topper for the full size pull out, as the mattress on pull out is fairly worn out. Other than this suggestion, I would give this rental a 5+ star review. The hosts were amazing and super friendly. Gorgeous views of water and the dock/fire pit are a huge plus! Thanks for an awesome stay. We will be back!!

We have stayed at Vic and Nancy's for the past several years, typically in August, and truly enjoy the location and privacy offered. The carriage house is nicely decorated and well stocked for all your needs. It is very clean, colorful, and provides a wonderful view of their property and West Bay. We spend most mornings drinking coffee and swimming from their boat dock. The water is crystal clear and typically around the 70 degree mark this time of year. There are plenty of quaint towns nearby and the bike trail is only a couple miles from the house. Vic and Nancy are very personable and welcome us to enjoy their landscaped fire pit next to the shore line. They have always make us feel right at home including their lovable pup Louie. We both look forward to spending more pleasurable and quiet vacations at Vic and Nancy's. It feels like our own summer cottage. Yo won't be disappointed.

We had a lovey stay. The property is beautiful and just as described. The owners are quiet and took care of a small issue with the AC immediately. Louis (their dog) was a delight to hang out with! The property is convenient between Suttons Bay and Traverse City. Loved the week there!

The owners were wonderful and the place was perfectly clean (a must for us)! Good location halfway between Sutton’s Bay and Traverse City.

This place was absolutely perfect for my wife and myself. It is precisely as the pictures suggest. The view of Grand Traverse Bay is perfect. As the listing says, the owners (Nancy & VIc) are there if you need them, but are otherwise out of site. Just Perfect. PS We were the owners of property in the area until a few years ago. We know how the rental market works. This rental (Restful Nest) is as close to perfect as it gets!

Very quiet and peaceful. Perfect for me, I enjoyed coffee on the pier watching the water and paddle boarding. I go on vacation to relax - and this is perfect for that 🙌
Would not be a good place for small children - only access are stairs and no beach to play on.

The property was everything we were hoping for to enjoy a week on the Leelanau peninsula.
Communication was great, property was well-appointed, with everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the kitchen was especially well-stocked with every pan or utensil you could need to prepare your own meals.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful. They made sure that we had everything we needed during our stay.
Would definitely seek this listing out again.

We enjoyed our 3 night stay very much! The property was beautiful and the apartment was perfectly comfortable for our little family. Everything was clean, very well maintained and offered all the comforts of home.
Our favorite part was definitely enjoying the pier and our 4 year old loved the water mat and finding shells on the small beach! Our little guy also loved running around with the owners pup!
Great location, between Suttons Bay and Traverse City, so we enjoyed exploring the area without having a long haul “home”.
Everything was perfect and we hope to be back in the future!

We could not have been happier with our stay. The location was perfect, and everything was accurate on the listing. The property is absolutely beautiful with a stunning view of the bay. The setup is so great for a couple's weekend getaway. Located central to many wineries yet just minutes from downtown TC where the action is. We will definitely be back!

My husband and I wanted to take a quick trip to Northern Michigan, and this apartment was perfect.
The location was great for the wineries and restaurants we wanted to visit. And, while we love Traverse City, the location between Traverse City and Sutton’s Bay was more private and less hectic.
The property was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and we enjoyed the apartment’s deck, and the dock (with slider) was a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the view.
I would definitely recommend this property.

We really enjoyed our stay. Nancy and Victor were both great hosts, and my girls loved playing with their adorable doggo! The check-in was smooth and the house was perfect for our family with everything we needed for the weekend. Enjoyed every morning with a cup of coffee on the deck overlooking the bay. Great place to stay for the Bayshore as it was outside of the very busy downtown area. Thanks for having us!
