Perfect Quick Getaway

The view is spectacular, would have been even better with warmer weather, but that's no fault of the owners. :) Fault of the state. The condo is adorable and updated and super clean. We will stay here again. Very welcoming. Easy access to the unit as well as perfectly positioned parking lot at a traffic light.

Excellent Condo and Great Location

The condo was in fantastic shape and very clean. It was bigger than it appeared in the photos and had plenty of room. The location on east bay is great and the beach is well maintained. Check in was easy and contactless, and the hosts were great! Overall we highly recommend staying here.

Will be back!!

My husband and I stayed at this property celebrating our anniversary. This place is wonderful. Everything we needed and more was provided, so thoughtful! The property manager was very quick to respond. I stay at a fair number of hotels/VRBOs and the bed was by far the most comfortable I’ve stayed at, and the bedding and towels very soft. View and location on beach are amazing. Will definitely be back!!!!

Beautiful condo

This is an interesting and enjoyable stay! First of all and most important, the owner, Patty was amazing with communication and responsiveness. We stayed for three days over Labor day weekend while hiking, winery visits, golfing that didn't happen during rain and geocaching. Patty's husband Jim came to help with t.v. issues while we were out for a day and when we came back, the issues were fixed. The great communication and responsiveness were the best part of the stay along with the well-decorated and well stocked unit. I enjoyed an evening on the back patio on our first night watching the sunset and the children playing on the beach. The king sized bed was very comfortable and the bathroom is huge! One thing that happened was a leak from the unit above us, but the owner was in constant contact with us and willing to come to fix the issue which wasn't their fault and was out of their control and refunded us some money for our inconvenience. We will chalk this incident up to a great story to tell in the future and a great experience with another VRBO owner. Thanks for the stay in your wonderful place!

Nice stay and location

Nice stay with direct access to beach. Ample parking and quick drive to downtown. The condo itself was comfortable and the cleanest property I’ve stayed in on vacation. One note for light sleepers, bring ear plugs, as you may hear guests walking above.

Simply the best!

I can't say enough about this property! Everything within the condo was perfection...the views, furnishings, quality TVs, and decor. Plus there was the easy parking and the no-hassle entry/exit. We loved this place and may return to the area simply because this was such a welcoming place to stay. While the outer building is slightly dated (a little paint on the decking could easily take care of this), there is NOTHING within the condo that that isn't lovely and up to the minute!!! Did I mention the hosts were easy to get ahold of and furnished many nice touches such as quality shampoo/conditioner/soaps, not to mention quality TP and paper towels and brand name coffee pods ??!! If I had to say anything I would suggest a makeup mirror would be a nice addition but if that's the only thing I can think of, you know it has all the amenities!! And those beautiful Lake Michigan views!!!
