Tranquil and Warm

I loved every minute of my stay at magical Lilla Cotta Bay. Everything was even better than I had dreamed -- lovely decor, privacy, amazing views, and the warmest welcome possible. When I got to the cottage the windows were open to capture soft breezes, everything was immaculate, there was a bag of goodies and wine on the table, and Grand Traverse Bay was shimmering out back. Wow! I spent the sunny days floating in the bay and exploring the Leelanau Peninsula. I'd especially recommend Dog Eared Books in Northport (I also loved watching the boats dock in the Northport marina), the 45th Parallel Cafe in Suttons Bay, and the Secret Garden Gallery in Empire. I spent cloudy days reading in the cottage and on the dock -- so peaceful. Thank you, Bill and Carol, for sharing your lovely retreat. You've provided everything necessary to make visitors (including singles) feel safe, comfortable, and special. I hope I get to return soon and would love to see Northport in the fall!

Our Charming Northport Stay!

5 of 5
Submitted: July 8, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We enjoyed beautiful views of Grand Traverse Bay from Lilla Cotta. Too, the cottage is in a perfect location from which to explore all the attractions that the Leelanau Peninsula offers. Northport itself has quite the charming main street center, all within walking distance. Very nice! Note: if you want to swim, it's best to use the beaches by the Marina - just a short walk away. The lake bed here is very rocky and you'll need water shoes to wade and to launch the paddleboat.

Quiet, relaxing, pleasant

We are planning our fifth consecutive springtime stay at Lilla Cotta for our early May wedding anniversary. There are few better spots to relax, unwind and celebrate than at Lilla Cotta. So many incredible memories - stunning sunrises, mated swans out in the bay, dinner at the dining room table while listening to Interlochen Public Radio. Lilla Cotta is a marvelous place to do many things - take a nap in the gloriously comfortable bed, curl up in the living room with a book or a stack of magazines you've been meaning to catch up on, or as the starting point for a walk into town. It's a special place for us, and we thank Bill and Carole for being the perfect hosts.
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Tourists without a Car
Owner's Response: Thanks so much for your review, Dawn and Steve - Knowing that you formerly camped at the State Park in early May, we know how much more comfortable Lilla Cotta is in comparison. We are glad you agree and come back year after year.

Resort feel to a charming cottaqe

Bill and Carole,
Our stay at your cottage was so relaxing with time to read and bike around the Leelanau Peninsula. You have thought of everything to make your guests comfortable from the furnishings to the delightful decorations throughout. It was a pleasure to sit in the wicker chairs and take in the view with coffee in the morning; or sit on the dock to enjoy the sun with our books. Lila Cotta is not a standard cottage rental. It has more of a resort feel with all its amenities ready to make your vacation comfortable and filled with summer memories.

Owner's Response: Steve and Kathleen - So glad you enjoyed your visit to Lilla Cotta. She's not big, but has a huge view! The picture you sent with you on the dock with a book in hand says it all. Look forward to having you return next year!book

Hot Week in July

5 of 5
Submitted: August 23, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
I think we picked the hottest week of the summer to vacation. And there's no better place to be than next to the water of Grand Traverse Bay in northern Michigan in the heat of summer. We spent a lot of time in and by the water staying cool, reading, listening to the radio. It was so relaxing! Oh we also managed to to visit some wineries for tasting; and we got to Leland, Glenn Arbor, and Sutton's Bay to shop and eat. But mostly it was a week spent enjoying being by the bay.
Bill and Carol, we know you had to adjust the calendar to accomodate our vacation week, and we really appreciated that. We would love to return.
Dave and Marilyn.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Dave and Marilyn - So glad your return visit to Lilla Cotta was a pleasant one. You are the perfect couple for the cottage, and by the sounds of your review, you took in everything a guest should while on vacation. Look forward to your return again next year!
