The condo is very spacious and beautiful! Jeff was very responsive with questions we had upon arrival and during our stay. The location is close to the pool and beach and right on the first hole of the gold course. The shuffle board is a awesome... my husband and I loved playing! The condo is well stocked with all kitchen appliance you would need along with beach towels, extra sunglasses and other little extras that you may have left at home. My only critique would be the outdoor furniture... the couch is a bit small... something a little larger and more comfortable would be a great addition. I highly recommend this condo for your next vacation.

Great place!

The condo was awesome! Very nice and very spacious. Golf course, pool, restaurant, and pontoon rental were all very nice and convenient. Fully stocked cooking essentials in the kitchen were a nice touch. This place really has it all. The one downside was the strict community… we got scolded a couple of times from property management and condo owners about wristbands, snacks in the pool area being too close to the water, walking down the street “on the wrong side”, parking, etc. lol. It was slightly comical but also felt like we were always being watched as the “renters”.

Family Adventure

This condo has everything a family could want for a fun get-away with the family. The bunk room was such a hit with the kids, they were in there most of the time and they loved sleeping in them. The condo is spacious, clean and very well equipped including fun games and a full kitchen. The property amenities include a nice pool, basketball, tennis/pickleball courts and beach. We would recommend this condo and resort for everyone wanting a quiet but entertaining get-away. The hosts were very accommodating and nice.

So much space here in this condo. The description is absolutely true. Watching the golfers was entertaining, Deer watching from our back patio was so cool! From the comfortable beds to the games galore, to the blender to make our ice cream drinks… Thanks Jeff and Cheryl , we will definitely rent again. The bowling shuffle board was the most fun ever!

I have stayed in dozens of VRBOs and this was one of the best. It had absolutely everything we needed, including beach towels, beach toys, beach bags, a wagon, life jackets, pool floaties! It welcomed us with a bottle of Fawn Creek wine-very nice touch! It was very clean, and we enjoyed the resort amenities (pool, pickleball court, tiki bar, beach). We rented a pontoon boat from Big Papas and it was seamless! 10/10 stay for sure!!

This property was absolutely gorgeous and we had a wonderful time at the condo! The home exceeded our expectations! It was clean, stocked and organized with everything we could think of for a comfortable and fun weekend away with family.

This condo was just right for our family! The location was perfect with the lake so close; the swimming areas were clean and easy to get too.

It was perfect and I would recommend it to anyone. Thanks again!!!

Northern Bay

Great location right next to the pool at Northern Bay - great spot to watch golfers come in at hole #1 as well. House was clean except for the floors which were very dirty requiring shoes at all times. House was equipped with lots of amenities. Did bike around the property but no other bike paths around that we found. Pickleball/tennis was close as well. We would go back!
