The host was provided plenty of information and even offered us the opportunity to check in early. The house was very clean and comfortable, especially the beds. The kitchen is very modern and stocked with every appliance imaginable. Overall a great experience and we plan to return.

We had a super time at Hilltop Vista! Views were incredible, house and beds comfortable so it was a successful summer getaway. We loved the deck. It was great for a summer breeze and taking in the gorgeous views. The beach at Lake Bellaire was small and clean. One day we rented a boat and took it to Torch Lake. Beautiful ride. The little town of Bellaire and Short’s Brewing so close was great too! Many thanks!

What a gem! A beautiful home with serene views over Lake Bellaire, minutes from Torch Lake. The outdoor deck area is fully functional at least 3 seasons a year with a roofed area, fans and an outdoor heater. We will be returning here next year!

Best place ever

Where do I begin, as everything exceeded our expectations! House was spotless, and I do mean spotless! Everything we needed was there, we brought lawnchairs but didnt need them because the deck w/gazebo had plenty of "comfortable" seating. So as you can imagine with the couch, the chaise, rocking chair and table and chairs, and other seating majority of our time was spent right there, laughing, talking and taking in the amazing view!. Especially enjoyed not having to worry if we were laughing a little too loud as there's not neighbors right next door. Also had fun sitting around the campfire and no mosquitoes!! (We had the upper and lower rented). Comfortable beds, spacious, big TVs and no problem watching any shows. Everything is as described on the vrbo and not 1 of us had a bad thing to say about our stay. Everything is pretty convenient to get to if going out, (we rented a pontoon on torch lake). Host also responded back quickly when I had a question. You can't go wrong renting this place for sure!

Deserves More Than 5 Stars

Our family of twelve can’t offer enough positive remarks about our first stay at this gorgeous property. I don’t know how our experience could have been any better! Every step of the process exceeded our expectations beginning with our introduction to the hosts, the client services they provided us for six months prior to our arrival, the warm welcome we received, and our continual surprise at everything their inviting home had to offer.I hope that you are fortunate enough to secure a stay. I can promise you you’ll want for nothing while you are there. Anything that you can think to bring (other than what’s in your suitcase) will already be waiting for you in the home. Extremely comfortable beds and bedrooms (never once heard the two toddlers who slept in the next room). Very comfortable furniture throughout including the inside and outside dining areas.An abundance of towels, kitchen gadgets, cookware, stemware, laundry, and cleaning supplies and firewood is at your disposal. Nothing will prepare you for the view from any of the many lake facing windows. Simply spectacular!We have not stopped talking about our trip and are already making plans to return next summer. I’m sure we’ll continue to make life long memories in Bellaire considering that its beauty and recreational opportunities are endless. We are all so grateful for this experience!

Thank you so much for your incredible review! We’re truly touched by your kind words and thrilled to hear that your family’s first stay in Bellaire was everything you hoped for—and more. Hosting your group was such a joy, and knowing that you felt so comfortable and well cared for in our home means the world to us. We’re especially glad the little touches—from the stocked kitchen to the cozy bedrooms—helped make your visit effortless and relaxing. And yes, that view never gets old—we’re so happy you enjoyed it as much as we do! It’s wonderful to know you’re already planning to return next summer. We look forward to welcoming you back and helping you create even more lifelong memories in Bellaire. With gratitude, Rex & Mairelis

We loved this place! There are 14 in our family and there was plenty of room for all. Lots of room to park. The home was very clean and all beds were comfortable. We sat outside much of the time. The view was gorgeous and there was a lot of comfortable seating on the deck. It was so peaceful in the evenings watching the moon come up over the lake and hearing loons calling in the distance. During the day we played yard games in the large back yard, drove into the cute town of Bellaire where there were great restaurants (don’t miss Shorts, Toonies), and an great ice cream shop and coffee shop. We swam in Lake Bellaire at Miley’s Beach. And played basketball and swung on the swings at Richardi Park. One afternoon we drove into Torch Lake and rented a pontoon boat and tubes. Loads of fun especially for the 6 grandkids. In the evenings we made a fire in the large fire pit (a lot of firewood available). The hosts were friendly, thorough, and quick to respond. We will definitely book this place again! Thank you, Rex & Mairelis!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly means a great deal to us that your entire family had such a memorable stay. It was a pleasure hosting your group, and we’re delighted that the home comfortably accommodated everyone. It sounds like you experienced many of the things we love most about Bellaire, from relaxing on the deck and watching the moon rise over Lake Bellaire while listening to the loons, to enjoying family games in the backyard, evenings around the fire pit, and exploring downtown Bellaire, Torch Lake, and all the local favorites. Thank you as well for your kind words about our communication and hospitality. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we would be honored to welcome you and your family back anytime. We look forward to hosting your next Bellaire getaway! Warm regards, Rex & Mairelis
