Neighborhood highlights
Birch House sits halfway between Traverse City and Suttons Bay in the heart of Leelanau wine country, with private Grand Traverse Bay frontage right across the road.
Suttons Bay is your home village. It's small — just over 600 year-round residents — but it punches well above its weight. 9 Bean Rows is one of the best bakeries in northern Michigan and worth the trip on its own. Wren is a farm-to-table standout for dinner. Poppy Things and Bayside Gallery anchor a downtown you can walk end to end in 10 minutes but will take much longer. Two public beaches, a marina, and the TART trail round it out for anyone who wants to move.
From Suttons Bay, 24 Leelanau Peninsula wineries are within easy reach. Shady Lane Cellars and Suttons Bay Ciders are minutes away. Leland and historic Fishtown are a short drive north. Traverse City is 20 minutes south for bigger restaurants, shopping, and the farmers market.
Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and Glen Arbor are about 40 minutes west when you're ready for a full day out.

Welcome to Wander North Rentals! My husband Mark and I moved to beautiful Leelanau County in the summer of 2016 and we have been falling in love with it every day since. We are so lucky to live in a place surrounded by beautiful lakes, enchanting forests, and beaches that stretch for miles. The best part though, the community of local businesses offering food, drink, and many products all produced in Leelanau County. We cannot wait to share out little slice of heaven with you!
