Wonderful Up north Lodging

This unit was perfect for our family golf getaway. We have been coming to Shanty Creek for over 25 years and have stayed at many different condos. This condo had the perfect accommodations for a relaxing, comfortable vacation for the week! Bellaire is a great little town to visit and Torch lake is also a short drive away! Tressia is a wonderful host! Can’t wait for next year!

We had a great time at Tressia’s place. One small hiccup but she quickly made everything right. We had a new adventure everyday and were so happy to be able to bring along our furry family member.

The condo is lovely, spacious, clean and well equipped. Plenty of areas for kids and adults to hang out. One concern: spacing between the rungs on the balcony off the living room is quite wide and a small child can easily fit between the rungs and fall to the ground below so extra caution is needed with little ones. We had a great time and thanks for sharing your property!

Great location and everything perfect

We had a great time at Venture Out, we had plenty of space for our group and everything was wonderfully clean. We also loved the fireplace and availability of wood. That was a wonderful treat after a day outside in the cold.

Excellent accommodations and location

All of us absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean, appliances updated in the kitchen as were all the place settings and utensils. Furniture was clean and solid, nothing rickety here. Bedrooms were great, all bedding was provided and very clean as were the bathroom. All cleaning supplies provided even doggie poop bags!.We brought too much stuff thinking we needed a lot more than was going to be provided, just bring your food and drinks of choice and you will be all set here.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to book back for next year.Thank you.

The real deal!

From the moment we have made this booking we knew we are going to enjoy our stay. From arranging the booking and right through our stay we were in awe about the smooth process, professionalism and the excellent accommodation itself. If you like cozy yet luxury, high quality and cleanliness this is the place for you! You won’t regret. It was as if we walked into our own home. It is very obvious the owners went above and beyond to give the renter a great experience. Wish we could give this place more than 5 stars! We would definitely recommend this lovely condo to everybody if you want a stress free stay. Thank you owners and hosts! We feel blessed! Merry Christmas

Worked perfect for a family ski weekend!

We had a great experience! One of the most well stocked places we’ve stayed! The kitchen had everything you could need, even a crockpot for a meal while out skiing all day! We easily fit 8 people and weren’t on top of each other. The three bathrooms is very nice! Pool and hotel with bar restaurant are a short walk! Shuttle took us downtown! Quick 10 min drive to the ski hill! Only minor complaint and honestly only because it was clear to us from the listing. The third bedroom with the 3 beds is more of a loft. There’s no doors and it’s open. Had plenty of privacy and a huge bathroom up there but the open concept made it so that if people we up, the group in the loft was being disturbed by noise! But it worked out, we just rearranged a bit for our crew that had an earlier bed time.

Great for a group

We were visiting Bellaire to see an old friend with a group that used to vacation there growing up. So we had an elderly mother and some friends all staying here together. This place was fantastic and had everything we needed. There were 3 beds on the ground floor (good for the 89 year old) and there are multiple beds up in the loft. The winding staircase which led to the loft is tricky if you have elderly or little kids but was fine for us. The loft area is open above the living area which was fine for us but just be aware if you have kids trying to sleep and have others making noise in the living area. Kitchen and living area was very nice. This was perfect for our group. We will stay here again if we ever come to back Bellaire.
