My husband and I stayed with our son and girlfriend who both turned 21 recently. We were celebrating with them by visiting wineries around Torch Lake. This was a perfect location to do so. The codo fit all our needs and the owner was very responsive and allowed us a later checkout so our son could take an exam before he went back to college.We enjoyed our weekend away and so will you if you choose to stay here.

Great Location

In addition to a great location, this condo offers the best night’s sleep with comfortable beds and beddings, luxurious bath towels, and a well-equipped kitchen. And if that’s not enough, Barbara was the most attentive owner I’ve ever dealt with during my years with VRBO. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fishing Tournament Elk Lake/ Skegemog Lake

The property was perfect for our needs. Fully stocked, very clean and owner Barbara was very accommodating. We had two bass boats that needed charging every day after fishing and she made sure we had the space and outlets. 100% would recommend her place

This was perfect for myself, my husband, and our 20&23 yr old daughters. Nicely remodeled and equipped little kitchen, and even a stocked spice cabinet! The second full bathroom was so nice to have too! Good communication from our hostess too!

Wonderful girl’s weekend getaway

We kicked the start of our summer with a teacher’s weekend getaway. The condo was spacious yet cozy. Seven of us fit comfortably in the living room and had plenty of room to sleep. Barbara made sure we got settled in and had everything we need. The book of details and suggestions on the table was helpful. We really enjoyed our weekend away. 😊

Very nice and quiet

Comfortable beds. Quiet. Generally, very nice. Plenty of space, utensils, etc. Not enough air conditioning. Needed more wash cloths (only 1 provided) and hand towels for the master bath (none provided). That’s nitpicking, but can make an impression.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 May 2025
Hi Greg, I’m sorry that the temperature was not comfortable for you. We actually had the heat on as it was in the 50s that weekend. Not sure about wash cloths and hand towels. I set it up myself and always leave 4 washcloths and 1 hand towel in that bathroom. There are always extras in the linen clóset upstairs as well. Please know that you can always reach out to your host during your stays. I was only a couple of miles away and would have been happy to come to the condo to get you set up with more towels and i could have instructed you on how to turn on the air conditioning via messaging or phone. Each room had it’s own ac unit and it actually gets quite cold in there.

Early summer long weekend with the family

Nicely appointed condo at a winter-time ski resort. We stayed during the off season and despite a popular golf course nearby, most of the condos were empty so there was no problem with noisy neighbors at all. Our family of four had plenty of comfortable space to spread out and relax. The furnishings and amenities were more than adequate. We didn't mind the short drive to the outdoor pool on hot days. The rental served as a central point for us to explore Northwest Michigan from Sleeping Bear Dunes, to Traverse City, to Torch Lake, and Charlevoix.
