Fantastic Condo / Owner

This was a fantastic stay, the condo was very cleaned and tastefully decorated. The views, like all of them on the East Bay, are amazing. Communication with the owner was easy and prompt. Enjoy the wonderful sunsets from the deck and the ease and convenience of being near so much in the TC area. Would definitely stay here again.

This property was exactly as pictured! Walking out directly onto the beach was amazing. Even better there was pontoon and jet ski rentals right out side the condo! They have thought of literally every little thing you could possibly need. Can’t say enough good things!

Relaxing

Our condo was very nice! It had everything we needed! The place was clean and decorated beautifully. We were steps away from the beach which was awesome! I wish there weren’t ducks on the beach though as people fed them and some kid was torturing them it kinda ruined the relaxation!

Bay view

Had a wonderful stay, comfortable bed, would rather have had a coffee pot vice a kuereg. Extremely nice vacation spot. The owner really needs to trim an overgrown bush blocking at least 75% of the bay view and replace some of the throw rugs as the corners have turned up and became a major trip hazard.

Walkout to beach

Unit was clean, had cozy feeling and excellent location. However, it was light 24/7 inside. Very difficult for me to sleep at night. Unit is across from elevator's which means that there’s a LED light shining in bedroom windows at night. Also outlets had nightlights so it was very light all the time.

Lovely condo on water

My family stayed her in June for 5 days. The beach was great. The sand was soft, there were plenty of sun chairs, it was very convenient. The pool was awesome too, very clean and warm, and the hot tub was so relaxing. The condo itself was just what we needed. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of pillows. The bathroom and kitchen were stocked with towels, soap, and complimentary shampoo and conditioner, and had all the amenities we needed. There is putt-putt golf right across the street from the condo, as well as restaurants and other places to eat. It was also a very short drive to Traverse city. We had great time and will be back!!

Fabulous!

Absolutely amazing stay. Literally everything you see in the pic is accurate. Some places show old, outdated pics but what you see, is what you’re gonna get. It was a home away from home for days. Maybe due to season it was quiet but just the way we like it. Beautifully decorated and all the amenities of home. I’m used to traveling and just taking everything but the kitchen sink but that was provided and so much more! Will def book again!

Beautiful property, great location!

Our stay in this place was amazing. The location is great, and very convenient for family with children (and without children). The place was clean, well equipped with most things you may need for your stay, and just overall beautiful. It’s obvious that the owners do their best to take care of their guests, and that they try to make their stay as enjoyable as possible. One thing I would recommend is replacing the sofa bed, it was uncomfortable to sit and/or sleep on! Overall, it was a wonderful experience. We will definitely be referring friends and family, and we hope to be back next year!! :)

Perfect Stay!

The pictures of the condo is exactly how it is! Comfortable bed and perfect location to beach and pool. I would recommend a dresser that guests can use instead of living out of suit cases. We went late in August and the bushes by the porch need trimmed. Lawn care people came while we were there and cut grass, but they did not trim bushes that needed done badly. Those are just a few comments, over all I would definitely recommend, it was a prefect location to everything, yet a small enough building that it was private.

Fantastic Location

We come to Cherry Festival every other year, staying in different rentals each time. We LOVE East Bay! This condo was perfect for the 2 of us. The beach right out the front windows. Not overly crowded like West Bay can get during the summer and especially during Cherry Fest. The condo was stocked very well. Had everything we needed. Very clean, Beautiful views, large bathroom where I took the best bubble bath I’ve ever had in the large jet tub, very convenient pool location and nice mirrors throughout! Rentals with only mirrors that show from the chest up just don’t work on vacation when you’re trying to get dressed up for a night out! (Well done with the mirrors) Highly recommend and thanks for a great stay!

Decor was nice, but the unit is very dated

The decor was very beautiful, but the unit itself needs some updating. The windows in the bedroom don't open. The air intake grill was filthy, which caused us to check out the furnace filter. I've never seen such a filthy filter. Thankfully there were new ones in the closet, so my husband changed it. In the Era of Covid, a clean HVAC system & operable windows for fresh air are very important. There were dark hairs on the bathroom floor and comforter. We only stayed 2 out of the 3 days we booked.

Review

The unit was fine. The furnishings are comfortable, washer and dryer were handy, and the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals. The complex, however, having some carpentry repairs and pressure washing completed during our stay - it would have been more enjoyable for us if these activities where completed in early spring instead of peak season. This is why the complex cleanliness gets a 3 instead of a 4. The unit can use an ice maker. The complex does not have a community ice maker and this can be resolved for about $100. At a minimum, ice cube trays need to be provided. The beach is beautiful. However, we observed several folks that appeared not to be staying at the complex utilizing pool and beach. A group of 8 and a seperate group of 6 parked in the side lot, made their way to the beach, utilized the beach furniture, and we went without. Great location, great weather, great view. But these small deficiencies should be resolved for the price that is being requested.

Great place to stay! Close and convenient to everything we did. Lisa Rossi was awesome to work with and helped us to a new spot when we had a flooding issue from the unit above us. She took charge and took care of the problem ASAP. Will gladly stay there again in the future. The bay was awesome and the pool is well maintained. The condo was clean and very comfortable.

Great location for families!

This was a very nice property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The back patio led straight to the beach. There was a nice coffee shop across the street, few restaurants and ice cream places within walking distance and Pirate Golf! I very much preferred to be on this side of Traverse City with a family, and not down town. It was very relaxed and not busy. We were able to travel to Torch Lake and Sleeping Bear Dunes with a reasonable distance.
