About this property

Great Location For Ski / Tubing at Shanty Creek Resorts!

With a short walk to The Lakeview Hotel and Summit tubing park, or 3-mile drive to the Schuss slopes, this 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom condominium is conveniently located to all the amenities at Shanty Creek Resorts. Comfortable, quiet and spacious accommodations with stone fireplace, full kitchen, jacuzzi tub and heated tile in both baths, king bed in both bedrooms, full living room and in-unit laundry (great for drying that outer wear after a day on the slopes). Accommodates up to 8 guests.

Guests are welcome to use the indoor pool at The Lakeview. Access to the cross country trails is just across the street. Save some energy for an awesome sledding hill just off of the back deck.

At Shanty Creek Resorts you are 2 miles from downtown Bellaire and Short’s Brewery, 45 - 50 minutes to Traverse City, Petoskey or Gaylord! Truly a convenient location to take in so many great destinations in northern Michigan.

Note: While this unit is on the lower level, The Legend Cottages are built in to the side of a hill. All guests should be comfortable navigating 1 1/2 flights of stairs to reach the entry.

Peaceful mornings.

This condo was perfectly located away from all the hustle and bustle of Traverse City but close enough to enjoy everything the area had to offer. The mornings were quiet and peaceful, drinking my coffee on the back deck looking over the golf course.

Although I saw the photos online, I was surprised that the condo was large and well decorated, and had everything we needed, plus! Not just a 2nd bedroom, but a lock-off bedroom with a mini kitchen and jacuzzi tub! The view and serenity on the large balcony were another surprise. We didn't stay long enough to enjoy the lovely beach front down the road and the indoor-outdoor pools that are exceptional bonuses for this unit! I'll be back!

Great Condo!

We enjoyed our stay here so much! Very well appointed unit and lots of space. The view from the deck is so enjoyable. Nice that there was a entry code so we could just punch that in and not worry about carrying keys. We will be back.

We have stayed at Shanty Creek many times and this unit is excellent as we expected. The one problem was the description on VRBO. The unit was described as first floor, which is technically correct. We were dismayed to learn that this is a three-story building with the second floor on ground level and this unit on the basement level requiring 27 steps to navigate each time. My 91 year-old wife with heart problems had great difficulty doing this. We left the property only once each day and had to adjust our schedule accordingly. Six trips up and down these stairs with our luggage on arrival and departure didn’t help my 85-year-old heart much either.

Absolutely beautiful condo over looking the Legend golf course! Enjoyed the patio so much both in the morning with our coffee watching the golfers and in the evening watching the sunset! It was very quiet and clean! Beds were comfortable as were the livingroom furniture (which was barely used since the patio was so lovely)… the 2nd room was more like a small efficiency and was perfect to close out the kids mess! The bath tubs were lovely and the showers had great water pressure! Already booked our week for next summer and we cannot wait!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Lee

Host profile image
The Lee family lives down state and are original owners of this condo, which was constructed in 1998. We are avid golfers, skiers and general outdoor enthusiasts, taking advantage of all 4 seasons at Shanty Creek Resorts.

Why they chose this property

Our family has been big fans of Shanty Creek and northern Michigan since we first visited in the early 1990's. Even today we seem to find new adventures each time we are Up North. Shanty Creek is such a convenient central location for day trips to Traverse City or the Sleeping Bear Dunes area, Petoskey and Harbor Springs, Mackinaw Island, the Jordan River Valley, or all locations in between. Whether we are here in summer, fall or winter, the resort has so much to offer. And we never tire of that awesome view off of the back deck.
