About this property

Great Value - Golf Course & Ski Condo- Awesome Mountain View Location

Schuss Mountain is the most serene of three villages in the Shanty Creek Resort. Four golf courses are within the Shanty Creek complex, with the ever popular Schuss Mt. G.C. out your front door. Arnold Palmer's 'The Legend', and the 'Cedar River' courses are world class golfing venues.

Schuss Mountain is a very popular ski resort offering quad chair lifts, many trails, and night skiing. The cross-country skier will love the 30 km of trail just outside your front door.


Fall provides a spectacular palate of colors in late September and early October.

The town of Bellaire and Mancelona are 5 minutes by car.

Amenities: The condo sleeps up to 4 (1 queen in the bedroom and 1 double fold out futon in front room) It includes: Air Conditioning, Stove top burners (no oven), microwave, refrigerator, there is an outdoor key/lock closet for guest's ski or club storage.

Small but comfortable condo

I had a little trouble finding the condo but the owners helped me to understand that I missed a turn. The condo was a good location with a short walk to pick up the shuttle and the homeowners were prompt in getting back to me including coming over personally to address my concerns.

Great stay, fantastic host's

This property was exactly what we expected, right next to the club house. The course and grounds looked great. The condo had everything needed for a seamless stay, well equipped kitchen, nice size bathroom and super comfortable bed. Very quiet location, we could hardly hear the mowing crew each day. We got to meet the property owners, we can honestly say we now have two new friends, great people. This will be our choice location every time we visit.

About the host

Hosted by Bob and Char Barko

Host profile image
Bob and I have been skiing Schuss for years using our motor home as a "day lodge" base with our dogs. When gas went sky high we found a pet friendly condo to rent during the week. Eventually Ed decided to sell and we went in as partners the first few years. We are now total owners with Ed as an occasional golfing guest. Bob worked as a pass checker for Schuss and is found on the slopes most every day. He participated in the Cardboard Classics in March (see pic) and was the oldest in the Relay for Life at Schuss recently. We try to meet all our guests and summer renters often are invited to a cruise on Torch in our 1954 Century. Looking forward to making you a friend at Schuss! Currently we are residents at Sudendorf where Bob maintains the outdoor pool.
