The views and location were great with great views of a marina on the 2nd floor. The furniture is a bit dated and the HVAC is a bit challenging, with a window unit in the bedroom and only a ceiling fan in the living room, so when the bedroom was cool, the family room was a bit warm on a hot day.
The kitchen is an efficiency in the living room, with a 1/2 size refrig and small stove. I wouldn't recommend cooking much in it, but that wasn't a problem for us as there are many great restaurants in the area.
Overall a good experience.

The balcony was filthy. It was obvious that it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. They charge a cleaning fee that should cover that. The inside was clean, but could use some updates. The

The only issue I had was the cupboards were way too high so I couldn’t reach much. Also some if the utensils were dirty and there’s no dishwasher to help prevent that. Noisemakers we’re there Thursday night so I left as it would only be worse Friday night. Other than that, great location with beautiful views.

Great view
Great views of Lake Charlevoix and boats. The condo is small but efficient, it has everything I needed for a long weekend. The bed is firm but comfortable and we slept well. Great location with no traffic or road noise.

Fall color tour Oct 2021
This condo is in a perfect location. The main issue we had was the waster stain on the ceiling over the bed and the bed itself was really hard and the memory foam on top did not help. It was very clean and it is centrally located to many things. It just needs some paint, new furniture and TLC.

Property Is A Dog
Love Northern Michigan Escapes as a management co. They do and have done an excellent job whenever I have stayed in one of their properties. But, this one does not do them any justice. First, the bed is hard as a rock and really unpleasant to sleep on. Then, the only way to adjust the thermostat is to climb up on a ladder that is left by the bed. Next, the TV’s are so small you might need a magnifying glass to watch them. Then, there is NO dishwasher. Also, a former reviewer got it right. The furniture is barely adequate. This place is obviously being milked for the rental income and the owner has no pride of ownership. We noticed that all of the reviews in the guest book in 2013/2014 extolled its virtues. All reviews after that are missing except for one just recently that was even less favorable than mine. Stay with Northern Michigan Escapes with confidence. Charlevoix has a ton of booking options available. But, avoid this one at Fosters Boat Works folks!!

The rental was spotless, the location was perfect, and loved the view. We only spent a weekend so the size was fine for 2 of us, might be a little small for a longer stay. We appreciated the supplies and the manual with condo and local information that was supplied. Our only suggestion would be to upgrade the sofa to a comfortable sectional and replace or remove those chairs. It would be nice to have a comfortable place to sit inside for evenings or rainy days. Also a bigger coffee maker would be great. Otherwise, it was great!

This past weekend, after we waited an hour to get into the unit because Northern Michigan Escapes forgot to leave us a key (because they think its 1993) we entered the unit to hear breathing on the other side of the wall, or floor or ceiling. We could literally determine that a neighbor was using a can-opener, lifting weights, and talking with a normal voice. not to mention loud music and yelling at times. Northern MI escapes cannot help you with this as they will remind you. They just manage properties that you likely dont want to stay in.

A two week stay in a clean unit, a great location and accommodating weather! The entire facility is well maintained. The only issue (which did not affect us but could be a problem for others) was the elevator which was nonoperational the last 3 days of our stay. Highly recommend for a quiet, peaceful vacation!

We had a wonderful week at Foster Boat Works Condo. The view over the marina and the Charlevoix Lake were gorgeous with paradise like sunrise and moonrise. The condo was ideal for two people; we appreciate being able to use the laundry room and the pool from the marina. Just one problem; no wifi available in the condo, so we used phone hotspots.
