Our family of ten, all 14 and older, had a fabulous time at the Boathouse. The home was tucked away down a main side street where we could walk to the beach, groceries, shops and restaurants. We had wonderful nighttime fires on the side patio and read books on the swing on yet another side porch. We took daily walks along the beachside road and walked to tennis and pickleball courts. Sleeping and bath arrangements were comfortable for our big group. The kitchen offered everything we needed for “eating in” when wanted. Northport is such a beautiful, fun town in close proximity to Leland, Sutton’s Bay, Traverse City and even a nice day get-away to Glen Arbor and Empire. We are so thankful to have found this Boathouse gem. ##### Margaret K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna B.

The kitchen is large and had everything we needed, the family room and dining room were spacious and comfy, and with four bedrooms that sleeps many, we could spread out and have private spaces as well.

There is plenty of parking. It is an old house and has had hodge podged not well done modifications. The outside is attractive. The bathrooms and beds were clean. We asked for more towels and the owner accommodated. The cleanliness of the house is not good. Nice furnishings, but the furniture in the living room is very dirty as are the rugs and the floors. I did mention this to the owner, but she had no comment. ##### User K.

It was myself, my husband, sister, brother in law, niece, and mom. Plenty of bedrooms throughout and a nice open living space. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything you could need. The house was in a very walkable area. Just a one block walk will get you to downtown- with a grocery store, shops and restaurants. One block in the other direction will get you to an awesome waterfront park with a marina and beach and playground. I can’t say enough great things about the house and location. The proximity to Sutton’s Bay and Traverse City is excellent. We were able to hit some of favorite places in those towns and then head back to Northport within about 40 minutes tops. The Boathouse is now a favorite and we will for sure be making a return visit! ##### Beth K. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### C. Jason C. Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness The location of the property is within close walking distance of everything, which we really enjoyed. The city of Northport is beautiful and authentic. There is a sense of community here. This is not a tourist trap and you will soon feel like a resident. In regards to the property, it needs some TLC in the areas of cleanliness and maintenance. Every corner and crevice of the house was covered in spider webs, the cabinet drawers were soiled with coffee grinds, the shower curtain on the main floor was covered in what appear to be pink mildew, the silverware and cups were soiled with food particles, some of the bedding was soiled with hair and what appeared to be bodily fluids, the sofa cushions were covered in what appeared to be cat hair. The washer was growing black mould. The interior and exterior of the home is in need of a fresh coat of paint, the deck boards on the front porch are splintered need to be cleaned and sealed, the grill needs to be cleaned and the outdoor furniture needs to be power washed. We really tried to look past some of this and enjoy the trip, but each day we would find something new. We did contact the owner and sent her pictures of our main concerns, and she did send out a cleaning person, which which helped some. My suggestion to make this place great, is a good deep cleaning, and some minor maintenance. ##### C. Jason C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth M. Jun 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing This was such an enjoyable place and I am so glad I found it. Northport is such a quaint area. So peaceful. The house was immaculate and comfortable. The layout was perfect for our group of 8\. Plenty of sleeping room. And you didn’t get the sense that there were beds squeezed into odd places. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped for everything needed to cook meals. Plenty of utensils. Bathrooms had towels for everyone. We brought along our own beach towels, because we like to have enough to lay out. And I brought along my own hair products but I always do. There’s a small supermarket in town for supplies. And we absolutely loved the fire pit. Sat out there every night. Never once used the TV set. A great place to air out with all the comforts of home. Definitely a keeper. We got really lucky with the weather too. If I didn’t have to get back to work I’d have requested additional days. ##### Elizabeth M.
