The location is ideal, being at the center of the leelanau wine scene, and right across from the bay. Everyone at the location was very friendly. (And the restaurant's Thai Pizza was excellent!)
This location was exactly as pictured. It had everything we needed. The host was great. We were even able to order food from the restaurant on site and they delivered right to our door. The chicken alfredo pizza was fantastic and the peach and honey wine was excellent. The location was perfect for getting to all the fun places to see in the area. We would definitely stay again!
Great place for a trip to Michigan. The location is perfect. The lodging was very clean, spacious and comfortable. Having wine tasting and really good food on site is a big plus. We will be coming back next time we are up north in Michigan.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location was convenient between Traverse City and Suttons Bay and the property was just as advertised. The rental was lightly stocked but was clean and had all the essentials we needed and the hosts were responsive. We would definitely stay here again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hawkins Farms. Our apartment was perfect for us. Super clean throughout and it had nice extras, beach towels, coffee beans, etc. weâd definitely stay there again!!
The rental was great, perfect location and the thai food was delicious. There was a portable air conditioner in the bedroom which worked for me as i usually have a box fan, but the rental kept cool even during a 85-90 degree weekend. Super easy check in.
It was an excellent experience. From the friendliness of the staff, the delicious food and wine, the comfort of the unit, to the great location- it was a 10 out of 10 stay! We would highly recommend it!
We loved our stay! The apartment is above the winery and spacious. It was surprisingly quiet. There is a stand alone air conditioning unit in the bedroom that cooled the entire apartment. The hosts were great and easy to talk with! The restaurant downstairs had great food and drink options.Centrally located between downtown Suttons Bay and Traverse City. Across the street is a DNR boat launch and a quiet âprivate beachâfor guests enjoyment. We will be back!!
Very clean and spacious apartment. We stayed for a long weekend, but certainly could have enjoyed the place for a whole week. The location allows for easy travel to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Suttons Bay or TC. However thereâs quite a bit to do onsite with a restaurant, wine tasting room, and even a little beach across the road.
Great location for access to bike trails and wine tastings. There is amazing Thai food on the property as well as pizza and wine tasting. Huge parking lot available for bike trailers, boats, etc. One note - this is a second floor apartment above a restaurant but noise was not an issue as they close by 9:00. Very clean and contained all the necessities.
Our family of 5 stayed in this apartment for 8 days. It was clean, well maintained, and comfortable. The kitchen is equipped with enough to prepare simple meals. We were both surprised with how quiet the space is given that it is located on a fairly busy road. The kids loved it...especially going out back to look for frogs every morning. We will definitely be staying again when we are in this area.
Everything about our experience was wonderful! The place was clean and very large. It was convenient to go to Traverse City or any of the small towns in the area. Itâs was very comfortable for our family of 4. Rich was very nice and accommodating.
I know we will be coming back to stay in the future! Thanks for everything!
Stay was great!!
Only thing that I will be looking into with VRBO is the $350 I was charged for an addition person. Communication with property owner was bad.
The property was exactly as described and very comfortable. Great location for taking excursions around the bay. One thing, that they might not be aware of is the coffee maker is not functioning right. It wouldn't drip and backed up out of the filter. Might just need a good cleaning but other than that all was great!
We had a lovely honeymoon. This was a nice starting point for all of our day trips. The kitchen had the appliances we needed. However, the dishwasher was broken, so I wouldnât count on that for your stay.
Had a little mix up about our check-in, but Salve arrived pretty quickly when we reached her. She also made us delicious southwest egg rolls and a bottle of wine for our trouble!
The furniture was all comfy. Plenty of closet space in the bedroom. It was nice to have a full length mirror for getting ready.
We had the most amazing stay at Hawkins Farms Cellars. We had never been to Northern Michigan before and had the best time exploring. The beach across the street is great for looking for rocks. Found a Petoskey stone or two. You will want water shoes.
I was amazed by how clean the rental was. You could tell they paid attention to the details. The room had a very comfortable king size bed and the living room has a pull out couch. Our 12 year old twins stayed on the pull out couch and were fine. The rental had all the pans and dishes we needed. Coffee pot worked great. But please please do not miss the restaurant down stairs. The food was excellent but we did not realize they were closed Monday and Tuesday so we did not get to try all the menu items we wanted to taste. The restaurant staff was so friendly and helpful with information about the area. The Chef and her brother could not have been nicer. Canât say enough about this place. We will definitely be back!! One suggestion would be coat hooks downstairs where you leave your shoes. âșïž
I also personally liked the location. Basically equal distance to TC or Suttons Bay. We headed in both directions for various things.
My Wife is a Thai Chef, who loves what she's doing, and has a very local following. The restaurant is celebrating our 10th year. I help out with Hawkins Farm Cellars tasting room.
