Cozy cottage with private pond. Close to the casino and the Bay.

Three-night minimum in prime summer months.

On Belanger Pond is a charming cottage in a storybook-like setting. This property is located north of Suttons Bay and is next to a large pond. It sleeps 6 people and has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.

There is a bedroom on the main floor, and the upper bedroom is in the loft. The cozy living room is off the kitchen and a large enclosed porch faces south over the pond. Mornings are beautiful on the porch with birdsong and a cool breeze.

This property is a photographer's dream. It is a magical spot with gorgeous landscaping and a serene setting. Enjoy a fire in the provided fire pit. There is a charcoal grill for outdoor cooking on a splendid summer evening.
sp
This is a great location to enjoy everything in Leelanau County. Stop at some of the wineries, Leelanau Sands Casino, the vintage Bay Theater, or one of the great local restaurants. The house is 20 miles from Traverse City.

The Sutton Bay Area is so much more relaxing than Traverse City yet close enough to enjoy Traverse City and surrounding areas. This is minor but would be nice to have a shower head that adjusted. Again minor but would have made showering more enjoyable. Location though was perfect.

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: We loved Belanger Pond...our main interest was bicycling and this wonderful cottage is ideally situated to benefit from many great rides in the region. The facilities are not modern...but who cares? You are up North and are well supplied with all that is necessary including a washer , dryer. Such a nice place. We stayed 5 nights and ate prepared every meal in the more than adequate kitchen. After long days of riding, this place was ideal to relax and recoup. There is a TV but the porch and patio are so pleasant, we never turned it on.....loved the place. Though we needed nothing, we felt the management team was right there for us. Great vacation.

Family visit to meet in Leelanau
The cottage was just as described. It was delightful little place to stay at. The attic rooms are toasty so dress accordingly. It was nice to sit beside the pond with the ducks, frogs and wildlife and have your morning coffee.

Late Summer Girls Trip
My mom, sisters and I booked this cottage for our annual girls trip. The cottage was SUPER cozy and in the perfect location for what we had planned. It was only a five minute drive to downtown Sutton’s Bay and a 10 minute drive in the other direction would get you to Northport! Plenty of great seating areas and spaces to cozy up. The porches (both inside and out) were lovely. We would definitely not hesitate to stay here again!

My husband and I had a great time. The cottage is beautifully decorated with a great view of Bellanger Pond and a slight view of the Bay. Very convenient location, close to many wineries and downtown Suttons Bay. We loved having our morning coffee in the enclosed porch. It was very relaxing!

Charming cottage in a perfect location!
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: Loved the Belanger Pond cottage, which was located right on M22 just 2ish miles north of downtown Suttons Bay. My mother and I enjoyed the French shabby chic feel of the place, and loved sitting on the porch and patio to enjoy the serene pond view. A great place to rest after many hikes and wine tastings. You even get a few peeks of the big lake from the porch and upstairs bedroom!Yes, you get some traffic noise as you are close to the road, but it's really only busy in the morning and early evening -- didn't bother us. I would say the only con is the well water (typical for when you're outside city limits up north), but we bought a water jug for drinking water and it was absolutely fine! Visit Up North also promptly replaced a coffee pot that was not working well with a new one which we really appreciated. A great stay and I'd love to return!
