Situated about half-way up the eastern shore of the Leelanau Peninsula, Suttons Bay is a beautiful lake-side town which offers miles of beaches lapped by azure waters. Surrounded on three sides by Lake Michigan, Suttons Bay is a Mecca for sailing and water-sport enthusiasts. The town is also a good base for touring the many vineyards and wineries of Michigan Wine Country or exploring by bicycle along the scenic Leelanau Trail. You can learn about Ottawa and Chippewa Indian culture and history at the Eyaawing Museum & Cultural Center, visit the Black Star Farm’s city tasting room for a cheese and wine tasting or visit the Mission House Lighthouse in Traverse City.
