Nice Place, Quiet, Clean

Very nice property. Plenty of amenities and reasonably close to lakes. Would benefit from having info in the condo about nearby places to visit, clear instructions on garbage removal (where do you take the trash- we had to figure it out). Everything worked but the shower and faucets in the main bedroom were loose. Kitchen arrangements were very useful; nice deck and porch.

Condo was clean and enjoyed the sun room. Third floor was too much. 45 steps was too much for a couple of older people. I would not rent this unit again. We love the Bellaire and will be back again.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this unit and the overall area. The location was clean and quiet tucked away from the lodge and golf courses and the outdoor pool and beach access were great. Other reviews are accurate as there is a long boardwalk and several steps to access, but not impossible as I had a recent disc/nerve event and I could make it work. Plan your trips and it will be fine, or do a drop off and pick up at the back of the property for a shorter walk up. You can’t park there overnight but we found it easier to drop for a few minutes to take things up and down.The condo was comfy and clean. It provided all we needed for a week up north in a centralized location. There were some dead lamps and a simple broom would have been nice for us to tidy up, but no other complaints. We would return without hesitation.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! We're so glad you enjoyed the condo, the peaceful location, and the nearby pool and beach during your week up north. We also appreciate you sharing your helpful tips about the boardwalk and access—it will certainly benefit future guests. Thank you as well for pointing out the lamps and the missing broom. We’ll be sure to address those items to make future stays even more comfortable. It means a lot to hear that you would return without hesitation, and we look forward to welcoming you back!
