This is our fourth year vacationing at Sylvan and our first time at the Compass Rose. My family and I had a very restful, enjoyable, and comfortable experience. It was a pleasant surprise to see that the condo was equipped with everything that we could have needed. Including a doggie feeding mat for Dr. Bob our furry family member. Thank you to the owners for being quick to respond to emails and thoughtful with providing an enjoyable experience for my family

Quick Long Weekend

The condo was well appointed and everything was as advertised. The view was amazing and the beach access was perfect. Although you share the property with other guests, there are two hot tubs and enough grills for all guests. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Quick family getaway

Cute and spacious house. Right on the lake and walkable to everything you could want in Sylvan Beach. Plenty of places to eat in town and the sunsets are hard to beat. The house overall is comfortable and we never felt cramped, despite having 4 adults, a small dog and 2 teens. Lots of room to spread out, especially the porch. Only complaint was the inaccurate description of the beds. All full size, no queens. Lastly, the owner was very responsive. Would love to return.

Spectacular View

The house and unit was easy to find and access. The view from the Second Floor Balcony was spectacular. The description of the house could be a little more clear. The "Compass Rose" Unit (#4) indicated that it had 2 beds in one room and 2 beds in another room, when in fact is has 2 beds in one room, 1 in another room, and 1 pullout sofa in the living room. The place was nice, convenient, and right on the beach. Had all the things we needed for our stay. The cleanliness of the unit could have been better. There were spider webs in places and the bathroom smelled like sewage/mustiness when we arrived. The back door was also jammed and would not open without extreme force. The hot tubs were a great addition to this place, but they were not very clean. Overall we would stay again with hopes that it would be cleaner next time.

Nice but didn’t quite work for my family

Very nice place and comfortable beds. Although, if you have small children that still take naps, this particular unit might be a bit noisy. There’s a set of doors that looks like a closet but it’s actually a neighboring unit. It’s locked and blocked off but you can clearly hear everything on the other side. Our neighbors had a large group and they’d often hold conversations by the door. Also, something to consider if you have toddlers, there is no deadbolt option on the main door. My little guy let himself out a couple times. Other than that, the place is beautiful and well appointed. Perfect for a couple or small group of friends.

Great location

Property was spotless very clean. Overlook of the beach was great nice community space. The living room gets a bit crowded with more than 3 but we split time in the evening between the living room and the deck.
