Nice property/good location
Nice, cozy unit. Extremely clean. Had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Only thing missing was storage. Could not use the closet in master bedroom and no where to put our luggage. So we used the spare bedroom for that. Not a big deal. I would definitely stay there again. *pool was being resurfaced by the building so it was not in use and the hot tub at the hotel was out of service. Again these things were not a big deal to us but some may want to check their working condition if it’s important to you. Very close to Torch Lake, and as others have stated, it’s a good base location if exploring other areas such as Mackinac Island, Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City. Communication with the owner was always quick and thorough. Of all the properties I have stayed in through the years, their welcome binder was the most complete and informative one I have ever seen.

Cute condo with a great view! Perfect for our family of four - 2 adults, 2 children. Great location, we were able to visit Charlevoix multiple times, Petoskey, and loved rock hunting at Antrim Creek Natural Area! The kids LOVED swimming at the pool every night. We’d definitely stay here again!

Charming Northern MI Retreat: Cozy, Clean, & Perfectly Located with Stunning Patio View
I recently stayed at this property and it was accurately listed and met my expectations with its clean and cozy atmosphere. The location was perfect for relaxation, and I thoroughly enjoyed the resort pool and beach club. Communication with the owner was excellent, especially when they promptly resolved an AC issue we encountered on the first day. While I appreciated the stay, it is important to note that an in-unit washer/dryer is unavailable and I would have liked kitchen containers for leftovers and a cooler bag for outings. However, the gorgeous patio view more than made up for it!

Wonderful weekend
Our family had a wonderful weekend full of adventure! Condo was clean , check in was easy. Very organized kitchen . Lots of things to do on the property rain or shine. It was exactly what our family needed. We escaped from the every day crazy- enjoyed the pool, played outdoor games, worked out, took a trip into Traverse , Bellaire and Torch. Cooked dinner while watching a family movie. The kids loved the bunk bed. Great getaway for a long weekend. We plan on booking again!

Nice, definitely not oversized :)
The property was nice, there were a few things that needed some attention that would have helped the overall wow factor, such as it was nice that there was a washer and dryer (even though we didn't use it) but there was no storage space to place our items. The master bedroom closet was locked and the one in the hall was full of supplies, and then the kitchen pantry type closet was missing a door and had the stackable washer/dryer. Therefore our stuff just ended up in a pile on the floor in the living room for the time were there. If we had more than 2 adults and 2 kids, it would have been a bit more tight. We were skiing the entire weekend so really didn't have to spend much time there. Internet or cable up there has always been a challenge, not just with this unit and it would freeze or disconnect us, even when trying to use our computer to watch something since many of the channels said we had to log in and we couldn't find the information to sign in (but that could be my fault, I might have missed it in the binder). I would think that maybe the binder could be updated, it appeared to be outdated with some information, however we had owned up there for over 20 years so it wasn't as big of a deal for us. I was a bit surprised that we had to do all the trashes, strip the beds, etc or the fees seemed quite high. Typically at others we have not had to do quite so much, even when we would leave our prior unit, we didn't have to do any of those things, maybe the contract?

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. We were easily able to access torch lake and many other surrounding lakes. We appreciate the time and effort these property managers take to give their guests the best time ever. Along with the extra time they spent calling us on the phone to talk to us about things to do nearby as this was our first time in Bellaire. We loved every minute of being up here and we will 100% be back!

Overpriced & Over Rated
We personally thought it was a little overpriced for what we got. The beach was a little over rated. The condo was adequate, but certainly not worth the price paid. Closet was unavailable for hanging clothes Plenty of instructions in a binder, but most everything was out dated as far as instructions. The instructions upon leaving were a little over the top and some requests were more than we have ever experienced before. Would probably try a different location next time.
