Terrific place we've stayed at many times

         

Review date: 2024-09-22

Review by Jim B.
An excellent location that is within a few blocks of the beach, the marina, the town's one grocery store, and its half-dozen dining choices. Clean and quiet, with both a porch to sit on and an outside dining area. Our only two issues were that the coffee machine needs to be replaced as it is old and stained, and the lack of ice cube trays in the freezer.

Northport Retreat family reunion 2024!

         

Review date: 2024-08-12

Review by Ann H.
Northport Retreat was a perfect place for our family! We had 4 other cottages rented in Northport for a big family reunion! Loved the location, we walked everywhere! We went to the beach, pickleball courts, Barbs, NPG, The Mitten, Yard and Lake, Music in the Park, Icd Cream, Dog Parade, rented e-bikes and of course Tom’s for anything and everything we needed! What I liked best about the cottage was the front porch and back deck and the side yard was big enough for yard games that we brought. I’d definitely rent again!

The property location is very good, grounds are well maintained. The exterior decks could use sealing and touch up paint. Inside , the walls could use a paint job. Upstairs wood paneled bedroom needs more lights.

Our second stay at Northport Retreat in North Port

         

Review date: 2023-08-15

Review by Thomas B.
Our family of seven including parents, grandparents and 3 grandchildren had another wonderful stay in this well maintained, charming home. A great location. One block from the beach two blocks to town, grocery and harbor. North Port is a small, quiet, friendly town located away from traffic and congestion. Charming homes and yards with flowers. Free Saturday night band concert. Relaxing and beautiful. A quiet retreat at the end of many adventure filled days.

Charming, immaculate home in quiet North Port

         

Review date: 2022-08-04

Review by Thomas B.
Our family of seven, four adults and three children spent a week in this charming, immaculate home located two blocks from the local beach and downtown North Port. The neighborhood is quiet and homes well maintained with lovely gardens. We could view the stars at night and take a short drive to local park to view sunset over Lake Michigan. House was immaculate with well stocked kitchen. Lovely porch for reading and conversations and beautiful flower gardens. Deck with table and six chairs made for eating outdoors. Family enjoyed playing bumper pool in the house and attended the free Friday night concert at the North Port harbor. We have been vacationing on the Leelanau Peninsula for 12 years and this location provided great access to all our favorite destinations. We hope to return next summer as this was a very special home located in such a friendly, welcoming community.

We are two families that vacation in Northport or a surrounding area once a year. We have teen and college aged kids that come and go throughout the week so at any given time there might be 9 people vacationing with us. This home met all of our needs for the week and we were quite pleased with the location and the response of the owner to a question regarding the air conditioning.

Review by Lisa P.
It was a very nice house. It was in an excellent location. I wish it had a fire pit though. The first step on the staircase is wood while the other steps are carpet. Two in our party fell because your mind thinks you have reached the main floor. I think that step should be carpeted. It had everything we needed except kleenex. I hate using toilet paper to blow my nose. The kitchen was large and great for playing games. The driveway fit three cars which was great!

Review by Richard K.
This place was great! Plenty of room for all of us and house was very nice! It’s a real small town. One little grocery store and an old gas station. Unfortunately some of the businesses were closed down, maybe due to COVID-19. The marina is only a short walk away and renting a boat is nice because they put the boat in the water at that marina. Only bad thing is that it is a good hour and half from torch lake and about 45 min from the main city area where there’s more to do. But we it work for our family. Just have to plan ahead a bit when you venture out. All in all it was a great place to stay and would def recommend for a quiet little family vacation spot.

Review by Anthony L.
We spent a fall weekend with friends at the property and enjoyed it immensely. The house is located on a quiet side street within a few minutes’ walk of all the shops, bars and restaurants in Northport. It was very clean and well furnished and quite spacious for 8 people. Northport is nicely situated for touring Leelanau Peninsula wineries. We would definitely consider another visit in the future. We wished we could have made more use of the two porches as the weather in October was cool and a little wet.

Northport Retreat did not disappoint us. The home was very comfortable, clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We so enjoyed the Hydrangea-lined porch morning and evening! You can walk into town for coffee & pastries, groceries and dinner! Also within walking distance to the marina, park and beach. A local business also rented us paddle boards and delivered them to us at the beach, in addition to picking them up at the end of the day! We would rent this house again in a heartbeat!

This is a LOVELY house and there was plenty of room for up to 8 of us. A few minor concerns: air conditioning didn't seem to be working very well. It said it was "on" but it really didn't cool the house down effectively. I'd get it checked out. Good thing we brought our own pots and pans for cooking. The house isn't equipped all that well in this regard. But we were warned about that ahead of time. The beds upstairs (where I slept) did not have good mattresses. My mattress was too soft and I ended up with a pretty painful back by the end of the stay. But, I consider these are all rather minor. Overall, it was a delightful place to stay! We'd like to repeat the experience.

We had such a great time at this house! Perfect location! We were able to walk to downtown to eat and shop. The front yard was perfect for the kids to play football in! The house was very clean. We all loved the bumper pool table (we came home and bought one for our house)! The big kitchen table was perfect for the whole family to eat together or play games. We will definitely stay there again!

Adorable Northport Rental

         

Review date: 2017-10-24

Review by Laura K.
I was so pleased with everything about this adorable house! It's surprisingly spacious, with 4 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. Perfect layout for a 2 family rental where kids could sleep in the twin bedrooms upstairs, and parents could sleep in the larger beds downstairs. Very close to downtown, literally about a 5 minute walk. I've stayed in a lot of vacation rentals, and this was, without questions, the nicest rental I've ever stayed in. Immaculately maintained, beautifully updated, clean furniture, appliances were clean and in good working order, and while there were plenty of kitchenwares (plates, bowls, glasses, etc) the cabinets weren't overflowing with random gadgets, so you could actually have a place to put a few groceries!I would absolutely recommend this to a friend, and would rent this property again.

This house was in excellent condition and was adequately supplied. The location was near shopping, grocery stores, the marina and Lake Michigan. I would recommend this property. The only negative was that the pillows were hard & uncomfortable and the sheets on the twin beds upstairs did not fit the beds and came off as people slept in them. We had a great time here.

We enjoyed our stay over Memorial Day Weekend 2017. The house was lovely inside and the gardens/flower beds were newly redone and are going to be beautiful this summer as it warms. We were within walking distance to Willowbrook Mill where our daughter's wedding and reception was held. We were close to the downtown area as well to the bay. The only snafu we had was we didn't have any hot water, I believe we were the first rental of the year and it hadn't been turned on, once we figured that out we were in "hot water heaven". The only other suggestion I would offer would be to have a welcome to the cottage notebook with all the information that you have on the website for us "older" renters who don't have the technical savvy in the tech world of today. The other rentals that we've had in the past have had a binder that stayed in the house and it was much more user friendly to us older ones than having to use our phones. Including instructions for the thermostat in this book would be very helpful as well. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Review by Brooke R.
Overall, we had a great stay at this location. It was close to town, close to the other properties that others were staying at, and close to the beach! You could even see the water at the end of our street! Everyone in the area is very friendly. I would highly recommend the community of Northport to anyone who wants a quiet getaway with friends and family. This house was just the icing on the cake. Lots of room for everyone who was there, and for friends to come over for a visit. Great outdoor seating. A cute little kitchen to cook in. Lots of dining space. If we head back up anytime soon, we will definitely be staying here again.

Wedding Weekend

         

Review date: 2016-07-20

Review by
The Northport Retreat was perfect for our extended weekend stay in Northport! We were able to walk to all of the wedding events in town and at the Marina. The house is very well appointed with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable!We ventured by car to Leland to enjoy lunch at The Cove Restaurant, hiked the Sleeping bear Dunes nearby! We also explored the historic Grand Traverse Lighthouse just north of town. We would recommend stopping in Suttons Bay for the shopping and wine tasting, as well!

The cottage was beautiful! Very clean, up-to-date and comfortable. Very close to the water and downtown. There was also a very fun park within a 5 minute walk from the cottage for our baby. Northport is a beautiful town. I would highly recommend this location and rental!

Great location - walk to grocery and marina. Quiet, very clean ans tastefully furnished. The only negative thing I could say is the beds are all extremely soft - which bothered some members of our party.

Northport Retreat Review

         

Review date: 2013-08-13

Review by Vicki J.
This was our second year staying at this rental property, and the second stay was just as nice as the first. We had 5 adults and 4 kids under 8, and we had plenty of room. It's a lovely, immaculately clean home. We enjoyed the wrap-around porch, and the kids enjoyed playing in the side yard. Except for a garbage disposal in the kitchen, we had everything we needed, but it would have been nice to have a fire pit in the yard. The only problems we encountered was that we were given an incorrect password for WiFi, so it took a couple of days to get connected, but the rental agency was diligent about getting us the correct information. As in the year before, we had problems getting the TV to work. Although the agency tried to help via phone, the instructions provided did not work. We ended up having to switch some cables in the back of the TV and then had no problem. Small beach with a playground is a short walk away. Short walk to Barb's bakery -- the cinnamon twists are addicting! You might want to get your groceries for the week at Meijer or Walmart in Traverse City--the local grocery store is pretty pricey, but convenient in a pinch. Our grandsons loved eating at The Garage in Northport.This rental property's location is a good 30-45 minute drive to most sight-seeing locations, but a beautiful drive no matter where you go. The staff at the rental agency was always available and responsive. We highly recommend them -- and this property, which was a great value compared to other homes that we checked out.

Disappointed that cleaning staff did not report bent legs on one twin bed. Took three calls to fix problem. However, staff friendly. Refreshingly clean and comfortable. Bumper pool enjoyed by all. With no instructions, it took some trial and error to activate the TV and associated equipment. The keyless entry is a asset. Overall a great property.

Four adults and three children stayed at this home early in July. We all loved it. The home was located on a quiet street within close walking distance to the park and beach, Barb's Bakery, Tom's Market and to all the great shops and delicious restaurants. We loved having the closeness to everything. The home was very nice and clean and well supplied with everything we needed. There was plenty of space to move around, cook, eat, play. The yard was really nice too. The kids really enjoyed being able to throw a football or frisbee around. We hope to come back to Northport and this rental home again!

No hair drier??

         

Review date: 2012-10-02

Review by
This house is nicely updated and decorated. However, there is no hair drier so my daughters and I walked around Northport with wet hair all weekend. Also, there is no garbage disposal which is a basic kitchen necessity in my opinion. We have stayed at other homes in Northport and they have had disposals, so I know it has nothing to do with the septic system. Also, the wireless connection did not work all weekend, which was fine with us but may be an annoyance for other renters. Also, the sprinkler system goes off at 7am and it hits the master bedroom wall, so bring a white noise machine if you're a light sleeper. Overall, it was a nice house.

The hair dryer was stolen and since replaced once brought to our attention. It appears a previous renter reprogrammed the house WIFI router as the passwords were all changed. We have remedied this and the WIFI is functional again. Will have the gardner set the sprinkler system to start at 0830 and run for about an hour for the 2013 rental season.

Great place to stay

We arrived in August and we all have been suprised about this beautiful and very comfortable place. We all (2 Familys) felt like at home and enjoyed the stay a lot. The kids could play outside, you can walk to playground,beach and grocerie. It's enough space for all and very clean! We will book this place again :-)

Perfect location close to lake and stores. Nice and open. Great porch to sit and read. Very homey, open and clean. The upstairs twin beds however were very uncomfortable-extremely soft. Might be fine for children though. The A/C is not routed into one of the upstairs bedrooms, but fans were provided. I would definitely book this place again! (sleeping downstairs!)

We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your next vacation in this home. All of the twin mattresses upstairs are Sealy Prosper Lane Plush Preferred 6-Series, and the two Queen mattresses downstairs are Sealy Prosper Lane Plush Euro Pillowtop 6-Series. All were first used in the summer of 2011. There is one HVAC vent in each upstairs bedroom as well as the upstairs bathroom. Dampers have been installed to improve airflow, but it is important that renters do not move the beds and obstruct the vents as is frequently the case. As of 2019 all of the mattresses have been replaced

Our time spent there was just beautiful. Everything was right where it should be. We loved how spacious the rooms were and the comfortable beds. The rooms were decorated nicely and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. The location of the property was very convenient with the grocery store and the lake right at us. Such a peaceful area and once we got the internet on track, life was beautiful. Thanks for a great stay.

This home is a great place for larger families or several couples as the living room, dining room, and bedrooms are spacious. The updated decor and cleanliness made for a very pleasant stay. It's proximity to the local wineries was a major factor when we made our final rental selection. We would definitely recommend this home.

Great Stay at Northport Retreat

         

Review date: 2011-08-29

Review by Punkaj G.
My husband, our almost two-year old daughter and I truly enjoyed our stay at this lovely house in Northport. The management company was very professional and quick to address our needs. The property was extremely clean and well kept. It would have been nice to stay directly on the lake, but for a very last minute vacation this was great. The kitchen is definitely not well-stocked with some necessities, such as a pizza pan, oven mitts, etc., but that was our only complaint! Would definitely recommend this property to others!

I understand the appeal of living in a small town now. We walked to Barbs Bakery for Breakfast, North End for Lunch and Toms Market for groceries. We were also a short walk to the playground and beach. Loved the location of this cottage and the cottage was just remodeled so everything was in new condition. The only issue we had was keeping the upstairs bedrooms cool. I highly recommend this cottage, it's location and amenities are wonderful.

This is a beautiful home, very well maintained and spotlessly clean. More kitchen cooking equipment (electric skillet, colandar, etc) would have been helpful, but there was enough for basic meal preparation. The water level at the swimming beach at Northport is very shallow, good for young children, but not interesting for teenagers.
