Property was very clean and comfortable. Beautifully located with Shanty creek running through the backyard. Convenient to the chain of lakes that are in the area. Grocery store within 4 miles if youâre cooking in. Very relaxing and beautiful.
My husband and I had a wonderful time during our long weekend stay at this condo. It was clean and very nicely appointed, with a great view of the woods and creek out back. This was actually my second stay here, which shows how much I enjoyed this rental property. I highly recommend it.
My family had a great time in this property! The location is convenient, and the area is very quiet and pleasant. Perfect getaway destination. The unit is very well maintained and the host Matt was very friendly and communicative. Highly recommended.
The stay was very pleasant and logistics were straight forward. Check in was simple and the condo was exactly as described. Very clean and amongst a beautiful wooded setting with a creek running through the area behind the building. Would definitely go back.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The condo was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with utensils and everything you need (bring coffee though!), towels were fluffy and there were some trash bags, toilet paper, etc.. to get you through a weekend stay. We never used to pool or private beach access, but nice that they are included for guests nonetheless.
The location was great for visiting Torch Lake; highly recommend Luhrs Landing for boat rentals, we had an amazing experience through them! Downtown Bellaire was very cute as well.
No complaints!
Found most of dishes, silverware,and cups filthy. Had to wash them before we could use them. Took away from having fun on our stay. The puzzle was fun, put it together in two days.
Mattâs place was very clean and comfortable for our annual stay in Bellaire. Condo is well appointed and had everything we needed for a long weekend. Matt communicated ahead of our arrival and was very responsive. We will stay here again!
The property is exactly as shown. It was super clean and very quiet. The weather was a bit cool so we didnât get to use the pool but it looked really inviting. Access to the beach is just down the road.
Matt the owner was super to work with. We plan on another visit to Mattâs condo. Absolutely perfect!
We spent a week at Mattâs condo during our ski trip and enjoyed our stay tremendously! The condo is clean, cozy and well stocked. The host is very responsive. Overall, great stay! Thank you!
Great condo. We have several family members staying close by so it was a perfect location for us. Loved the pool and beach club. Very clean and stocked with incidentals.
Lovely condo in the woods with second floor deck views of brook. Nearby golf and ski areas just outside Bellaire. You couldnât ask for a more peaceful vacation spot.
There were so many things we enjoyed about our stay, itâs hard not to give all 5-star reviews. However, in fairness to other properties weâve stayed at that truly were 5-star, it just didnât seem right. For starters, the layout and setting of the condo were great. We didnât know whether or not any of our kids might want to come and stay for a night or two, so having the separate bedroom and bath on the opposite side of the great room was perfect (even though nobody was able to join us). We loved sitting on the deck and enjoying Shanty Creek flowing through the trees behind the condo. The pool was conveniently close by to walk to, but the private beach was much more of a jaunt than weâd imagined from the property description; especially since itâs on the other side of M-88. We are walkers, so we [naively] put ourselves at risk walking over there ONCE. To be clear, itâs lovely once you get there, but for anyone with children the need to drive really should be emphasized. This is the first time weâve stayed at a VRBO property that didnât have a handbook to refer to for advice and guidance. Had the club pass not fallen out of the bag of tour pamphlets, we would not have known we needed it to access the beach. When it came time to check out, we had to go back to the property listing to find out what was required. When a couple of issues arose, Matt was very quick to respond; however we had to mutually agree to leave things as they were so as to not interfere with plans we already had in place. The kitchen was nicely appointed with everything we needed to eat most meals in, which was great; however, the appliances are quite dated, which was a huge contrast to the lovely new carpeting and nice furnishings. Again, overall we enjoyed our stay, Iâd have given an overall 4.5 if that had been possible.
The condo met all our needs and cannot say it enough of the exceptional cleanliness of this place. The tennis courts and pool were a bonus. We would rent again!
