*Local outfitters (Suttons Bay Bikes) will deliver kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, splash pads, etc directly to the dock

*Depending on the bay water levels, most years there is a small 6-12 feet deep sandy beach exposed that small children love to play on.

*Public boat launch located 100 yards to our South. Local outfitters (TC Watersports) will deliver jet skis, pontoons directly to the boat launch and can assist you with loading.



*Please note, our home is located on top of a large hill (hence the name of both our home and our street) on our 5-acre property. To access our private dock, guests can either walk down a trail through our wooded property (5-10 min), or drive down the hill (1 min) and park at the top of our dock stairs. As is very common on the Leelanau Peninsula, our dock stairs are located on the east side of M22. The crossing from our trail to the dock stairs is located in a very clear, wide open portion of the road with excellent visibility. Guests with small children typically choose to drive down the hill and park immediately adjacent to our dock stairs (where we have cleared parking) to avoid the road crossing.
