One of the staff saw my husband walking from our bike with our towel we use to wipe off rain/dew and a few minutes later came to our room asking if we needed extra towels.

10/10 Excellent
"It was a very nice condo, although I didn’t really get a chance to explore the surrounding area. I arrived after spending almost two long weeks traveling around Lake Superior, so I was pretty tired by the time I got there. I took the ferry over and then explored Madeline Island by bicycle with my dog. It was a really cool experience, although my legs were definitely sore the next day!The condo had everything I needed, and the neighbors were very friendly. Overall, it was a comfortable place to stay and a nice way to wrap up my Lake Superior trip."
