Stunning Winery Girls Escape with Bay ViewsThis property is a dream! Set on a peaceful vineyard with incredible views of the bay, it’s the perfect escape. The home is well maintained and fully equipped with everything we needed. Mornings on the patio chairs with coffee were magical, and evenings with local wine were unforgettable. The private beach was amazing. The water is great for swimming (just bring your water shoes).The hosts were welcoming and helpful. It felt like a luxury getaway with all the comforts of home. The town of Sutton’s Bay is about 12 minutes away. We didn’t want to leave—can’t wait to return for another girls trip! Thank you Tracy and to our friends at Willow Winery!

We were so impressed with The Grand View 2 @ Willow Winery. The property is stunning, and we were so comfortable in the large, well-appointed space. It's a beautiful and spacious property, the views were gorgeous, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Tracy and Harry were very attentive and ensured we had whatever we needed during our stay. The private wine tour was cool and they were very open with suggestions on where we should visit. I can't say enough on how wonderful our weekend was.

Willow winery vrbo

Beautiful view of winery and bay! I haven’t re-read listing, but getting bags from vehicle to the Vrbo was challenging- gravel road up a hill - challenging for 70 year olds. Down stairs was nicely done with first floor bedroom, bath, kitchen and living room. Upstairs bedroom didn’t feel as “finished”The owner was very hospitable!Thanks for the hospitality!

Exceptional location, views, & wine!

Staying at Willow Winery was the highlight of our trip to Leelanau. The views are absolutely stunning—rolling vineyards, Lake Michigan in the distance, and some of the best sunsets we’ve seen. It’s just a few minutes from Suttons Bay, so you get peace and quiet without being far from anything.What really made the stay special was Tracy and Harry. They’re the kind of hosts who make you feel right at home—genuine, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they’ve created here. Can’t wait to come back.

Best View

We loved our stay at Willow Winery. The cottage was charming with many historical features such as the master bedroom door. It has ample outdoor space to drink in the view as well as the wine. The beds were comfortable and the hosts were very generous with their wine, supplies and advice. An extra bonus was a personal tour of the winery which we loved and certainly started our trip off right! If I had any suggestions it would be to say there is no shower upstairs in the loft bedroom, and no dishwasher if you were staying longer and intended to cook every night. Also if you are not very mobile the walk way up to the house is steep and may be a problem. None of this kept us from having a wonderful time and we will most certainly be back. .

Michigan by way of France

We enjoyed our trip immensely thanks to the unparalleled view of the bay, sweet French style cottage, and Tracy’s wonderful recommendations for restaurants and activities. She ensured my husband and I enjoyed ourselves and was so thoughtful to bring games and treats much to the delight of our children. We have loved sharing the incredible wines with our friends. Cheers to next year!

Incredible Stay

This is SUCH a special place to stay. The house itself is gorgeous and spacious with a very well-equipped kitchen for anyone who loves to cook. The winery is stunning and you can't beat the views of the lake. One of our favorite moments was laying out on the grassy hill stargazing late at night - the skies were so clear we were able to see Saturn with our binoculars! We had the best wedding weekend we could imagine and are already talking about coming back for anniversaries. Thank you Tracy for being an amazing host and going above and beyond to make sure we had a good time.

40th Birthday Retreat

What a fun way to spend my 40th birthday. House was great for my girlfriends and I… amazing view that I could not get enough of… Grand traverse bay, the moon, the vineyard… loved it! Definitely a great work out to get up and down to the house but all worth it for that view! Tracy is the best, very accommodating and welcomed us with a wine tasting and her son took our stuff to the house, very thankful for that! All needs were met, and everyone had a great time! The private off site beach was perfect for a lazy afternoon. Highly recommend if you love great views and great wine!

Once in a Lifetime

This was hands down, the most incredible rental I’ve ever experienced. It was indescribably beautiful and unique. Tracy is by far the most kind, thoughtful, and wonderful host/human you’ll ever meet. I could go on for hours about her. The “from the vines to the wines tour” was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen! We loved every second of our stay. And i cannot wait to return

Spectacular view!

The view and location of this property is next to none. It’s the most adorable little cottage on a winery with views of a lake. It’s a magical experience to sit outside and enjoy. We truly loved everything about the atmosphere and set-up, fantastic! Tracy provides little extras like hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, laundry soap, etc. We had plenty of towels with spa robes and slippers too! I would definitely recommend staying here. Only a few little things to consider: The wifi just doesn’t work. Kitchen pans, utensils, and things are sparing. The window coverings for the master let in a lot of light and more importantly heat. The upstairs bathroom doesn’t have a door 😳. The trash situation is peculiar, you have to transport your own trash down to the road vs. putting the can closer. The driveway is really difficult to manage, slippery stone vs normal gravel on a steep hill. They need new gravel and to offer a golf cart or something. None of the issues would prevent me from staying again though
