The location was perfect, and the refreshed space was ideal for our needs. Bed was comfy, great new floor and comfy cold A/C during a very hot period in early October. We enjoyed ourselves.

The room was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. It was appointed with nice extras, like the mini fridge, microwave and coffee pot. It met our needs well for a long girl's weekend of winter fun!
The one issue we had was handled quickly once Vrbo connected me with the host. We were sent the wrong door code, but all was well after that. We would return!
Stayed for the weekend and had the best time. The place was very clean and quiet. Perfect spot to be in and within walking distance of the resort. We went ski’ing just a few miles away and had the best get away. The host communicated with us when we had questions and it was an easy check in process. Would highly recommend.. 5 stars!
Wife and I stayed for my wife’s birthday. It was a great experience. Property is located in a very quiet, peaceful location.
Property is well maintained and clean. Definitely recommend.
We came up for NYE with friends who live nearby. We have stayed at the big hotel before and wanted something more quaint and updated. We searched VRBO and the pictures of this place came up and we loved it. We booked right on the spot because it was also such a great rate per night. We were not disappointed. The cottage is beautiful and all newly remodeled. The checking and out process was the easiest we have ever done. We will definitely be booking this place again.
My husband and I booked a weekend here for a wedding we were attending in Charlevoix. The room was beautiful and clean! Unfortunately we did not get to explore the property and use the amenities due to our time crunch, but one pool was right next to the building and very easy to access. Golf is in abundance, there are restaurants on the property, and several in downtown Bellaire. The room had everything we needed, and I loved the fireplace! Can’t wait to visit again when we have more time!
Location and scenery were amazing! Very convenient to many things to do. Room was great and loved the fireplace! We would definitely recommend and come back here!
The host was very accommodating and let us check in early. The condo was clean and nicely remodeled. The internet access for the television was nonexistent but could have been from the winter storm. Also, new pillows are needed (very flat). We had a great stay!
Weekend stay. We visited Petoskey, Traverse City, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Leland. Wish we had spent more time, so we could focus on each location for a whole day. The room was adorable, well taken care of. The property is beautiful.
I wouldn’t call it a condo but more like a studio/motel room. It was very clean and decorated nicely. Location was nice and not far from downtown. I would stay again!

What a well kept, cute little condo. Perfect for a couple. Love the appointments, and attention to detail. The binder in room showing activities, dinning, etc. was useful.
I would definitely stay there again.
Very nice place to stay. Everything was newly renovated. Didn’t use any of the amenities because we got there late and left early. Only issue was the internet wasn’t working. Couldn’t get the smart tv to hookup to it. Never called anyone about it though. Just went without. Overall very nice place. Would definitely return if in the area
