Great place and perfect spot
We had a great time at this condo. We’ve been going to Shanty for 10+ years with family and friends, so we know the area well. We visited during peak fall colors and commented that this home was the best spot for fall views. Close to the Lakeview hotel which has restaurants and bars. Including the infamous Mike at Sarducci’s Creekside, IYKYK. Just a short drive or shuttle to downtown Bellaire and great hiking trails. Throughout our stay, and before, Olivia was easy to communicate with. We would absolutely stay here again!

Clean and Quiet
We were property owners on the resort for 15 years. This condo is set very nice on the resort with easy access to the amenities. Our stay was very quiet and the condo was nice stocked with basic items. Two things to be aware of. 1) The door locking can be a bit temperamental. Close the door and then firmly pull on the knob while pressing the proper button. 2) The water is not hot. It is a bit better than warm. If you want hot water, warm water in the microwave and use that. I did that for washing my face and doing the dishes (There is a dishwasher but I chose not to use it.) The condo was very comfortable and nicely appointed. I would definitely return to this unit.

Great condo at Shanty Creek
Olivia and Steve were very helpful and attentive with our booking. The condo had everything that we needed for our 5-night stay. Shanty Creek needs some updating and attention. The pool next to our building had only 5 old chairs and a few tables. Other than that, a great stay all around. Gregg and Kim Halstead.

We had a wonderful stay. Everything was as stated, check in was smooth, condo was clean, we appreciated having a little "extra" of the necessities (TP, paper towel, garbage bags, etc....) so you don't have to run out and get more. Olivia always replied promptly when messaged. Location is absolutely amazing, unbeatable sunsets!!

It’s a cute little condo. It’s clean and good to sleep, has a few pools available for renters. Just a bit small it’s listed to sleep 8 I had a crew of 6 including my baby and it felt a bit tight so it’s a good place just for a smaller family. Overall nice clean and beautiful view!

Condo was in excellent condition and exceptionally clean. Check in process was seamless and convenient, and the view from the balcony is amazing. It’s close to Torch Lake which was the primary purpose of our trip. The resort is a little dated but still nice. We were really happy with this quick last minute get away.

Nice Condo
The property was nice. We should have rented something larger which is our fault. The view would have been nice if we could see it through the wildfire smoke (again, no fault of the owner). This is our fourth trip to Michigan and we stay somewhere different in this region each time. The condo is not close to the water and the private beach must be driven to. The entire beach swimming area is only knee deep. It is very clean. We rented a pontoon boat and took that from Belair Lake to Torch Lake where the Antrim Co Sheriffs Office was out in full force targeting and harassing tourists. Overall, the condo was fine but we will not revisit that area.
