5 stars do not express how pleased we were with our stay. From the communication with the host, to the condo location, everything was better than expected.

Beautiful location. Lovely little condo. The trash was still in the can when we got there and the freezer had some residue on it which I was able to wipe out, but otherwise clean. Pillows all need to be replaced. They are worn out and smell a little. It would be helpful to put some sheer covering over the top windows in the main room for those who sleep on the pull out bed. We enjoyed our stay.

Lovely and perfect
This condo was the perfect space for our son, his wife and their infant. It was clean and comfortable with a spectacular view. This is the second time we have rented it and will absolutely do so in the future as well.

My dear friend and I stayed for a short getaway. We had a wonderful time and appreciated our accommodations which were clean and as described. We were within walking distance to Lake Michigan and had a nice view of the harbor. Thank you-

Temperature of hot water needs to be turned up. Could not take a decent bath. Water pressure was weak for a shower. Suggest providing a map of property amenities - pool and hot tub.

Beautiful views
Couldn't get any better for location and services. Two downfalls. We were looking forward to the indoor pool, which had to close for a maintenance issue. The stove did not function, burners would shut off while trying to cook, and the oven was too small to cook in.

Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback. So sorry the pool closed unexpectedly during your time at the condo. We are already working the stove fix so it shouldn't be an issue moving forward. Hope you'll come stay with us again soon - Tim Riley, Owner Boardwalk Vacation Rentals.

Mini Fall Vacation
Condo was nicely decorated, clean and comfortable and well stocked with towels and had everything you needed in the kitchen. The amenities of the pool and spa was extra nice since it was off season and we basically had the place to our selves. Most likely due to the time of the year but the outside entrance and deck could use some cleaning attention. Overall our stay was wonderful and will plan on returning to the area as it was beautiful.

Cozy, cute, quiet, clean place in a great location! Book through broker to avoid fees!
This property was great but the fees we incurred by booking through VRBO really put a damper on our stay. Once I booked on VRBO it became apparent that I could book for cheaper going directly to the broker. c21boardwalkrentals dot com

Beautiful area close to the beach
Stayed a few nights with two children in early October. The condo was very nice and clean, and the community was very enjoyable. The kids loved the nearby indoor pool and the hot tub was so relaxing. The proximity to Fifth Avenue Beach was especially amazing, and it’s a great spot to catch the sunset. This is a perfect location from which to explore Manistee and the surrounding cities.

Four days away.
Very nice ; view of harbor, location relative to Lake Michigan, beach, downtown, Casino and Lake Michigan rec Area (Nordhouse Dunes). Other comments: Was not notified of change in TV from cable to Smart. Do not have any streaming apps at home. Not able to watch local news or sports. Couch and chair were very uncomfortable. Both of these very minor irrations, but you asked.

Review of stay
Whole experience of the stay was very positive. Only feedback I would give is optional features of being able to do our laundry would be nice add. Room darkening shades were nice in bedroom.. in living room with pull out couch, would be nice to make room darker in the morning to sleep a little better. But other than these very small requests… loved the stay and location.

Great stay and lovely location
We love Harbor Village! The property was nice, clean and quiet. We love utilizing the pools, harbor and the beach. Kitchen was well stocked. I would not recommend it as a place that comfortably sleeps 4 people. My husband and I and two teens had two that ended up sleeping on the floor because the pull out was small and really uncomfortable. The bed could also use a new mattress.

Walk to the beach
This is within walking distance to the beach. The downtown area is walkable, but it’s a long walk. My only dislike is that could only find one kitchen towel. Otherwise, no complaints.

Absolutely the Perfect Little Place!
We totally enjoyed our stay in this condo. This location, view, and accommodation were perfect. The condo was exactly what we had hoped for. This was the first time in renting a place using VRBO and it was a great experience. I would highly recommend this website. So many great things to do in the Manistee-area. Boating, kayaking, caneoing, and just walking on the beach. Restaurants around the area are great as well. We look forward to returning someday to Manistee, and it's nice to know the perfect place to stay. Thanks for the great time!
