Fabulous location

Great location, beach and crystal river outside your door. Bike path close and short drive to Glen Arbor. Kitchen well stocked, air conditioning units were rather loud, bed very comfortable, internet slow most days during my stay and Cable only worked one day. Still, get location and beautiful beach, would stay again.

Great Stay!

We spent a week here and loved every minute. The condo is well maintained (new appliances, bath recently remodeled) and very lean. The kitchen is well stocked. The owners have created a helpful binder with information about the major towns in the area. You can watch the sunset over Lake Michigan from the balcony or take the short walk to the beach. We received a complimentary phone call when the unit was ready earlier than the stated check-in time. The washer & dryer in the basement are clean and well maintained - very handy. We will definitely be back!

So glad that we were able to let you start enjoying your vacation a little earlier than expected! You're right the balcony is a great place to relax and take in the sunset. We'd love to have you back any time.

Beautiful spot

This unit has the most beautiful views of Lake Michigan. Sitting on the porch and watching the water and the sunsets is amazing. While the unit is somewhat dated, the location, close to the beach is perfect.

My Review

My family enjoyed the property and the area. The property is older and does have A/C. The bedroom did not have ceiling fans which would have enhanced the property and stay. I would choose the property again.
