I was looking for an inexpensive place to stay for a wedding in Traverse City. For how much it cost it was exactly what I needed. I am a fisherman and was a little disappointed I couldn’t fish off of the docks that were outside my door. The room was a bit better than I expected, very comfortable, AC worked great.

There is only one very small bathroom for a place that is advertised to sleep 6. The shower leaks constantly, which we were not told about until our first or second day when I saw the young lady cleaning the room next door and asked for more towels as the bathroom stays wet due to constant dripping and there is no fan in the bathroom. She said the problem was in the wall. The bathroom was always wet, the shower stall was old and mildewed, very unsightly and unsafe for us 60+ adults trying to get cleaned up over multiple days & nights. The staff was very nice.

Easy check-in and check out. Clean with a spacious room and bathroom. Since the bathroom is so spacious, I would recommend adding an additional table or shelves to accommodate additional accessories and such.

Fun place.

Fife Lake was beautiful. The accommodations were nice. The only recommendation that I would say is that someone should clean the room if you’re staying there for a week and the beach that they offer should be cleaned from the goose feces and seaweed.

It was beautiful views and a cute apartment. Water pressure was poor and the circuit breaks if you run more than one appliance in the kitchen. Staff was friendly.

The lack of a “front desk” or onsite assistance is a bit frustrating but we stayed longer than your average visitor so that may not be a common issue. Otherwise, great property on Fife Lake.

Good location Good price

Nice centrally located small lake community. Easy day trips Traverse City, Fishtown, the Dunes and Turtlecreek Casino!!! Older but updated nicely building and unit. My only complaint was that the shower head was broken where it attaches to the shower wall and we had to hold it while showering which was awkward.

Beautiful lake view. Very relaxing. The room is outdated. Carpet was very dirty. Being ground floor lake property, the room was musty smelling and bathroom had a very strong odor. Cleaning staff did pour cleaner in drain of shower and that helped a lot.
