We stayed at the condos for 2 nights, with the kids. The golf cart rental being on the same site is super convenient. The condo was clean, and the common areas like the grill, the pool, are very nice as well.The mattresses were not comfortable at all; but that's a matter of personal preference. Overall, great price for a spacious condo, vs a hotel room.The staff is very nice too and if it's your first time on the island, they'll guide you to all the good places.

The property itself was great. We had no issues checking in or out. The beds are not super comfortable, but being a vacation rental I didn't expect it to be. The people staying in the unit next to us smoked a lot of weed inside their unit and we could smell it in our unit, but we weren't in our unit too much so we just dealt with it.

Rental property plus is their awesome location. It's right on the lake and people are always there keeping the place clean. One thing that would be better from management stand point is that you can place linens and bedsheets for your pool view rooms also, I understand you mentioned before we booked that you don't provide those, but for the cost we are paying I think it wouldn't be a bad idea and keep them in pool view rooms also. Other than that everything good..

Hi Shrinath,
Thank you so much for the review and glad you enjoyed the condo. Since Put-in-Bay has such a small water treatment plant, we try our best to reduce the stress on the system in order to have water pressure for other needs on the island. The best way to do this is by having guests bring their own linens in the poolview condos. I hope you understand! We look forward to having your group stay again in the future!

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for any confusion regarding the details of your stay. We want to clarify that neither our Island Club or Condo pool have a bar, so there isn't a bar to be open at the pool. Additionally, all of our Poolview Condos have two queen beds in one bedroom and two full-size beds in the other bedroom. The term "Poolview Condo" refers to the condos facing in the direction of the pool, not necessarily offering a 100% direct view of it.
We regret that these aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. We hope this clarifies any misunderstandings, and we’re sorry that your experience was not as you had hoped.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.

Reviewer Comments:
Booking was easy. Most things were supplied with our stay, excepts sheets/towels/hair dryer. Bring extra blankets, the comforter was small, and it was colder in the evening. Bring beach towels for the pool! You WILL need either a golf cart (recommend) or car to get anywhere. You are far from downtown or any stores/bars. At night there are NO lights around the property. Pool is dark and so is the parking lot etc. Felt like a safety concern. If you wanted to walk to Joe's (closest bar) bring flashlights but I would recommend just driving or bike if you have a headlight. I really wish there was an option for Early check-in. Check in at 4:00 PM was late for us and not very convenient. We were there for a sailing competition and needed to be on the Island by 10:00 AM. Management was not on-site, and no option was given to arrive earlier.

Response from VrboOwner on 8 August 2025
Thank you for your detailed feedback and for staying with us! We're glad to hear the booking process was easy and that you found many of the essentials provided helpful. We also appreciate you sharing what could have improved your stay.
We understand how arriving early for an event like a sailing competition can make a 4:00 PM check-in challenging. While we do our best to accommodate early arrivals when possible, our cleaning schedule during busy times can make it difficult. We’ll certainly take your feedback into account as we review our check-in procedures.
Thank you also for noting the lighting concerns around the property—we're sharing this with our team to explore potential improvements. We hope your competition went well and would love the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future!

The condos are very dirty. We had to clean upon arrival. The floors needed swept, dead bugs everywhere. A big spider web on the ceiling in the living room. The porch was covered in cobwebs and dead mayflys. The dishes were dirty from the previous guest, like put away filthy. Everything needed cleaned, washed and disinfected upon arrival. We rented sheets and linens and the sheets had holes in them. The pillows are disgusting and the beds are uncomfortable. We woke up with hip and back pain every morning which is not something we usually experience. The floors felt like they’ve never been mopped. Just overall a very disappointing experience at a premium price.
