This was our second stay at this beautiful condo! We LOVE the proximity to the pool! Our kiddos love the bunkroom, which is full of fun activities, and it is so nice that there is a queen mattress on the bottom of the larger bunk. The kitchen is well-stocked, they have tons of beach/pool towels (one less thing to pack), and the back patio is so nice with the protective net for the golf course. Jeff is super responsive and very accommodating. We look forward to next summer's stay!

Family Adventure

This condo has everything a family could want for a fun get-away with the family. The bunk room was such a hit with the kids, they were in there most of the time and they loved sleeping in them. The condo is spacious, clean and very well equipped including fun games and a full kitchen. The property amenities include a nice pool, basketball, tennis/pickleball courts and beach. We would recommend this condo and resort for everyone wanting a quiet but entertaining get-away. The hosts were very accommodating and nice.

I have stayed in dozens of VRBOs and this was one of the best. It had absolutely everything we needed, including beach towels, beach toys, beach bags, a wagon, life jackets, pool floaties! It welcomed us with a bottle of Fawn Creek wine-very nice touch! It was very clean, and we enjoyed the resort amenities (pool, pickleball court, tiki bar, beach). We rented a pontoon boat from Big Papas and it was seamless! 10/10 stay for sure!!

So much space here in this condo. The description is absolutely true. Watching the golfers was entertaining, Deer watching from our back patio was so cool! From the comfortable beds to the games galore, to the blender to make our ice cream drinks… Thanks Jeff and Cheryl , we will definitely rent again. The bowling shuffle board was the most fun ever!

This is a 5 star property.

This property has all the amenities you would ever need. If you like golf the back deck of the condo has a bird eye view of the first green at the northern bay resort. which was very entertaining. Jeff the owner was very responsive to my inquiries, very accommodating to my requests and had excellent communication through the entire process. It is one of the nicest properties I have ever stayed in. I would highly recommend this property and look forward to renting this property again.

Northern Bay

Great location right next to the pool at Northern Bay - great spot to watch golfers come in at hole #1 as well. House was clean except for the floors which were very dirty requiring shoes at all times. House was equipped with lots of amenities. Did bike around the property but no other bike paths around that we found. Pickleball/tennis was close as well. We would go back!

Summer Relaxation

My family and I had a great stay at Jeff’s place. The complimentary bottle of wine and sparkling juice was a nice gift upon arrival. Jeff was extremely responsive and helpful anytime I had a question before and throughout the stay. He helped connect me with the right people to rent a boat slip for the week and made sure we had everything we need for our stay. The condo was updated nicely and very cozy. Check in/check out process was simple and straight forward. I thoroughly enjoyed being on the first green and watching(heckling) the golfers each morning from the patio. :) The net on the patio is a nice addition to protect from wayward gold balls. Saved us twice. I would highly recommend staying here.

The condo is very spacious and beautiful! Jeff was very responsive with questions we had upon arrival and during our stay. The location is close to the pool and beach and right on the first hole of the gold course. The shuffle board is a awesome... my husband and I loved playing! The condo is well stocked with all kitchen appliance you would need along with beach towels, extra sunglasses and other little extras that you may have left at home. My only critique would be the outdoor furniture... the couch is a bit small... something a little larger and more comfortable would be a great addition. I highly recommend this condo for your next vacation.

4th of July Vacation

Jeff’s condo was absolutely stunning!!! My kids never wanted to leave and wanted to live there forever! The room for the kids was unbelievable. They were living in a dream with all the fun bunk beds and two TVs. The shuffle board was a super fun addition, there were never ending board games played, and even lots of fun games for the back patio. We rented a boat slip and went boating a lot. While we were in the condo we enjoyed watching the many golfers go by. I must add this condo had every thing you could possibly need, if you forgot something, they had it!!! It was easy access to get around and you are right by the pool if you do not leave the resort. The beach was also a short 5 min walk or less around the corner. Jeff was always very responsive if I needed him with any questions that came up. I would HIGHLY recommend his beautiful condo to anyone. We had 4 adults and 5 kids and it was perfect for us all. We never once felt crowded. The layout is amazing :) We will be back in the future!Thanks again, Jeff

Great place!

The condo was awesome! Very nice and very spacious. Golf course, pool, restaurant, and pontoon rental were all very nice and convenient. Fully stocked cooking essentials in the kitchen were a nice touch. This place really has it all. The one downside was the strict community… we got scolded a couple of times from property management and condo owners about wristbands, snacks in the pool area being too close to the water, walking down the street “on the wrong side”, parking, etc. lol. It was slightly comical but also felt like we were always being watched as the “renters”.
