I cannot say enough good things about this property and host. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend. It was perfect! Halfway home I realized i forgot something and Dale was willing to take the time to mail it back to me! We will definitely consider staying here again if ever the opportunity arises !

Set up was great. Very private. Bathrooms clean. TV was a bit difficult work. Bedrooms were very comfortable. Guest room with two beds was a bit warm because no air flow. The sliding glass door doesn’t open. The deck is so private and the scenery is awesome. Chairs and tables could’ve been cleaner, webs and bugs. Overall though we love this place and would come back again and again.

Awesome condo in beautiful Shanty Creek

We had a wonderful stay here in August 2024! The condo was modern, spacious and clean with several amenities within walking distance at the Shanty Creek hotel. The views were beautiful and the beds were comfy. We really enjoyed our stay!

The condo was very clean. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. You can access pool and restaurants/bar by foot. The ice maker did not work and that was a bit disappointing but the owner immediately brought a large bag of ice and ice cube trays and that worked for us. My only complaint would be the parking lot for this unit is horrible and you will more often than not have a long walk to your room, not to mention the walk has several flights of steps so important to know if you have health issues. Finally, you do not have access to the thermostat so if you are cold or hot you have to text the owner. This is fine until it’s midnight and you wake up freezing or sweating and (1) who wants to bother the owner with a text in the middle of the night and (2) most people wouldn’t respond until morning any way. Overall, a very nice space and we would go back.

Family trip

My family of 4 had a great time staying here this summer! The place was very clean and the kitchen was stocked with basics utensils and appliances we needed. The back deck was a great space drink coffee in the morning and relax with a fire at night. The kids loved both the indoor and outdoor pools and play area. The really restaurants in property were great as well.

Wonderful week!

We had such a wonderful stay at this property. I didn’t know too much about Michigan and where things were so I was a bit hesitant booking anything. This was the perfect spot!! We went to mackinaw island for two days and then drove the two hrs south to stay here for the week and we were able to visit bear sand dunes, torch lake, all the wineries within the week. I also thought being in a golf/ski area we would be further from town but there’s a grocery store right by less than 5 minutes and a cute little town! Walking the grounds was great with all the beautiful trees. The fire pit was the best part and we hung in the backyard and watched the sunset most nights. The walk from parking lot to door isn’t bad at all, it’s worth it to be at the end in a secluded area with a beautiful hang out spot outside, I definitely recommend this place! Comfy bed, kitchen had everything we needed to cook, very clean!

Great place to stay.

We booked this condo for the week of September 22nd - 29th based on the description and guest ratings on VRBO. Both very accurate. The place was exactly as described and in my opinion is the best condo available in this complex. Walking distance to The Shanty Bar and Sarducci’s Italian restaurant if you don’t want to drive for an evening out. And I do mean “walking distance”. It’s literally about 100 yards away. There is outdoor seating if the weather is nice and they had live entertainment in the evenings. The condo itself was great. Plenty of room with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. A nice wood burning fireplace in the living room that we did not use. But we did use the gas fire pit on the back deck on a couple of nights to enjoy the night sky and a few cocktails. The deck is what really set this condo apart from all the others in this complex. It’s located at the very end of the complex and has a full wraparound deck connecting the living room balcony to the rear deck. Plenty of seating and a nice Weber grill for cooking a couple of steaks or whatever you like. Located at the top of the slopes, it’s a true ski in ski out location in season. We used the place a base for exploring the Antrim Chain of Lakes area and day trips to Traverse City, Charlevoix and Petoskey. All a short drive of less than an hour from the property. About 2 mile or so from the town of Bellaire where there is additional restaurants, shops and groceries. And thanks again to Dale, the host, for all his help.

It is a very comfortable property in a great location. The only drawback is a programmable thermostat that can only be accessed with the owner’s phone. He responded quickly to our one request for a temperature change, but it is a very odd situation. I hope it is temporary.

Best unit at Trappers Lodge

We loved our stay at this condo. The porch is just wonderful, and the condo has a peaceful view out of the back. The decorating was peaceful and pretty, without being fussy. We loved being walking distance to the indoor and outdoor pools, as well as the playground and 4th of July fireworks. We also loved having access to the Summit Village association beach club.

Nice but, not exactly private.

We booked this location to stay near Torch Lake for our 25th wedding anniversary. Our communication with the property owner was great. He was quick to reply. We had no control over the thermostat and had to contact Dale to make adjustments remotely. The place was clean and we appreciated having cleaning supplies and plenty of dishes. As for the privacy, we did have a few porches to sit on. One was small off of the double bed bedroom. It had a lot of leaves and spiders so we didn't really use it. The big porch with the grill, fire feature and tables and chairs was really nice. The only issue there was the balcony right above it. There were several people staying above us and they used that balcony a lot. So, when we were on that back porch, they were constantly sitting right above us watching and listening. No fault of theirs, of course. It just didn't really offer the privacy we had hoped for. The third porch area had a balcony above it and a very short walk to the porch directly next to us. We just sorta felt surrounded by people. The bed was comfortable and clean. The bathrooms were also nice and clean. I also enjoyed the views from our room that overlooked an old ski lift valley as well as the rolling hills. .
