About this property

HUGE 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath Penthouse Condo at Schuss Mountain

The BEST Location at all of Shanty Creek. Gorgeous year-round condo for a family with up to 5 kids. Bright, sunny, 1200 Sq. Foot unit with view of hill and golf course. Right in the middle of it all! Full kitchen, breakfast bar as well as a dining room. Beautiful natural fireplace, cozy sitting area, and all the fixings for a fabulous stay! Large Master Bedroom with Queen bed, adjoining bath with Jacuzzi tub, lots of closet space, and private deck. The second bedroom has a bunk bed with 2 twins and 1 full bed, also has a deck, vanity, and large closets. The living room has pull out sofa for one more sleeper. 8 guests max. 4 adults or 2 adults and up to 5 kids suggested.
Early check-in and late checkout, if available, and confirmed on the day of check-in. Extra cleaning protocols are taking longer than usual and are making early check-ins more difficult to accommodate. We hope you understand.
Our property cannot be booked further than 6 months in advance.

Thank you for writing a review, Shannon. Guests like you are what help future guests know that a listing lives up to what they see in photos and details. I strive for 5 stars and take our guests critiques to heart. Wish I knew how I could have done to make your stay worthy of 5 stars. Hope you'll visit again!

Great for Torch Lake visit

Laura was very proactive in anticipating our needs and helping us plug in to the process to make it seamless and convenient. Responsiveness in communications was amazing, though she was so thorough, not much left to inquire on. Very easy to unwind and settle in after a day of adventure. We'll be back!
