The pictures for this condo really don’t do it justice. The views are outstanding from inside the unit and the deck. There’s even a working light house maybe a few hundred yards from shore. It’s much more spacious than the pics suggested, and there were also a number of games, puzzles and toys my 5 year old enjoyed playing with. The unit itself is 5/5. I gave 4 stars due to a few issues we had. The first was spotty internet service, which also impacted the smart tv. This drove my son crazy, since he didn’t appreciate just sitting outside looking at the lake like I did. The second was the large hill to the beach and the beach itself. I am very glad I brought a wagon to haul things down to the beach because it is a workout for out of shape folks like myself to get back up the hill. The beach was neither the best nor worst I’ve ever been to. Water was on the chilly side, a bit rocky and water clarity not great, but we had fun wading in. Certainly nothing that is within the owners control, but be sure to bring water shoes. What my son enjoyed most was looking for sea glass on the beach, of which he found quite a bit. The third issue we had was that I managed to lock us out of the unit the first evening. There is a smart lock to get into the unit and then a manual lock on the inside door that you aren’t supposed to touch once inside because if you leave the unit the door will remain locked. It says this in the instruction booklet inside, but making it idiot proof, like putting a piece of tape over the lock or sign next to the door, would be beneficial. The owners hired a locksmith to come let us in. The neighbor in the downstairs unit was extremely nice and brought us a chair and water and coloring book for while we waited. On the whole though I’d definitely stay again. It’s a good location for day trips to Bayfield and the UP, and the view can’t be beat.
