About this property

2BR Condo 7 min to Schuss Mtn, Shanty Creek Resort, Shorts Brewery - Fireplace

Welcome to Pinebrook Retreats Unit 112, a peaceful getaway tucked among whispering pines and overlooking a gently flowing creek. Here, quiet moments come naturally — whether you’re sipping coffee on the 20-foot back deck, listening to the babble of water below, or watching the sunlight filter through the trees.

Though it feels worlds away, Pinebrook Retreats is located near all the best that Bellaire, Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain have to offer — from golf and skiing to local shops and cozy restaurants.

The Space
Step inside and you’ll find a warm, light-filled space designed for comfort and connection. The open living area features three large sliding glass doors that frame views of the pine woods and creek, bringing the outdoors in. A gas fireplace and comfortable furnishings make it the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals — from full cookware and utensils to thoughtful touches like coffee supplies (both a drip pot and Keurig), complementary spices, and place settings for eight. A high-top dining table and breakfast bar with swivel stools make dining casual and easy.

For added convenience, the condo includes air conditioning, a washer and dryer, and a sleeper sofa for extra guests.

Bedrooms & Baths
The primary bedroom suite offers a king-size bed, streaming TV, and an ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower and a large two-person jetted Jacuzzi tub — ideal for soaking and relaxing at day’s end. You also have a private balcony overlooking a serene woodland setting, so every morning feels peaceful and private.
The second bedroom includes a queen bed, streaming TV, and generous closet space with a second full bathroom nearby featuring a tub/shower combo.

Outdoor & Community Amenities
Step out onto your spacious 20-foot deck to breathe in the fresh pine air and listen to the creek as it winds through the trees below — your own quiet sanctuary in nature.

Just outside, you’ll have access to a seasonal outdoor pool and clubhouse (open Memorial Day through Labor Day), complete with showers, bathrooms, and a gathering space available for larger get-togethers.

Whether you’re here to relax, explore the nearby golf courses, or simply reconnect with nature, Pinebrook Retreats offers a tranquil home base where you can truly unwind.

Nicely updated condo that fit our family of 4 perfectly for a ski trip to Schuss. Any questions we had were answered almost immediately. Very clean and well stocked. Conveniently located 10 mins from Schuss and Summit Villages and close to downtown Bellaire. The condo had a pretty view of woods and the creek. We really enjoyed our stay!

We just returned from an amazing stay at this 2-bedroom condo, and it exceeded every expectation! The location is unbeatable — truly just 7 minutes to Schuss Mountain for incredible skiing (or summer golf), right in the heart of Shanty Creek Resort, and only a quick drive to Short's Brewery in Bellaire for beers and pub grub. We loved how central it was to all the best activities in Northern Michigan.The condo itself is super cozy and well-equipped. The fireplace was the highlight — nothing beats curling up by the fire after a day on the slopes or out exploring. The living space felt warm and inviting, the kitchen was fully stocked for easy meals, and both bedrooms were comfortable with plenty of space for our group.Everything was clean, thoughtfully set up, and the resort amenities (pools, hot tubs, shuttles) made it feel like a true vacation upgrade. Whether you're here for winter sports, golfing, hiking, or just relaxing with a beer from Short's, this spot is ideal.We can't wait to come back — highly recommend to anyone looking for the perfect mix of adventure and comfort. 5 stars all the way! Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

About the host

Hosted by Lori Field

Host profile image
Hi, we’re Lori and Gregg—a 'trying' to retire couple from Brighton, Michigan—and this is our personal vacation condo. We bought it in October 2025 and began renting it later that year, so the space is still new to us and continually improving. Since we stay here ourselves, we keep it comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully equipped. We still work full-time, so we rely on great local help for housekeeping and maintenance, but we manage everything else directly through Vrbo. The rental income goes right back into upgrades and improvements, and guest feedback plays a big part in shaping those changes. We’re not rental investors—just homeowners sharing a place we love while helping offset the cost of keeping it.

Why they chose this property

Our home is like living in a tree house in a pine forest. Exploring from the deck or just looking out the glass door wall into the woods and listening to the creek rush by is so relaxing. But, when it's time to play...you are 10 minutes of the beach, golf, skiing, mountain biking, restaurants, beer-garden, coffee shops and more. Perfect.
