This condo is very comfortable. The views are lovely and the space is nice. It is a second floor unit so stairs are required. The property manager was extremely attentive and I contacted her a handful to times with questions or comments. I will say that the place was not exactly as clean as we'd like it. We found dirty dishes and utensils stowed away in strange places (which may be why the cleaning person didn't catch them and probably because tenants are asked to clean and put away all dishes before they leave and its easier to stow dirty grill stuff in a closet than deal with it in a rush). There is a lodge next door but their amenities are not included in the rental of this unit. However, there is a nice space of waterfront tenants can access.

The property was lovely. Bright, cheerful, scenic, and peacefully situated - Elk Rapids is right in the middle between Traverse City, Suttons Bay, Charlevoix, Petoskey, and Harbor Springs - so it was the perfect location! Lots of great wineries and breweries in that area too. And of course, you can’t beat Lake Michigan!
