We had a great stay at The Big Chill #6. The location of this condo can't be beat. Walkable to the Union Pier Social for dinner as we got in around 9pm local time. Walked to the Black Currant bakery, as well as the Gelato place. The little store next to the bakery had a few items we missed picking up at Barney's grocery in New Buffalo, so that was a plus. The bakery in the morning can have a line so (it moves quickly though) and the other bakry in Harbert (Luisa's) is another one we loved and is only a 10 minute drive towards Warren dunes. We walked (8 mins) to Goodwin beach and it felt like a private beach, even though it is public. I ran around the neighborhood on Lakeshore Dr. and also a few side streets and saw other bikers, walkers, runners, families headed to the beach. Overall, a nice area to take the family. The furnishings in the condo were beach contemporary and the sofas and beds were all very comfortable. The screened in porch was nice to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning, as well as relaxing in the evenings. Internet speed was reliable and fast. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast and a couple of dinners. The pool area was nice and we enjoyed floating around - the pool was heated and there were plenty of lounge chairs. We would absolutely stay here again and are already looking to book something in the early fall.

We had a great time! Not too far of a walk to the beach and to local restaurants. Loved the screened in porch! Didn’t get to use the pool because of the weather so can’t speak to that but seemed like it would be good for families.

The first night when we crawled into bed we discovered sand in our beds which made us question the cleanliness of our sheets. We contacted the management company who was quickly responsive and offered to resend housekeeping. They were also very responsive to help us find missing remotes and get the fireplace working! However, they didn't come when they said they would when we contacted about the very moldy shower head (even the young kids complained it didn't work well, when I tried to adjust it I got a hand full of black from the mold... no wonder we all had such bad allergies ... we were showering in mold and sleeping in dirty sheets?! Yikes!). The outdoor furniture and table was thick with what seemed to be a few weeks worth of dirt and construction dust that needed to be cleaned when we arrived. There were A LOT of cobwebs, spider eggs, and spiders around the house, so we spent some additional time vacuuming up those as well. It seemed that perhaps the house had been vacant for awhile before our stay which contributed to the bugs making themselves cozy. Hopefully our cleaning made it nicer for the next guest! The kitchen is overwhelmed with items - you will certainly have any cooking equipment you require, I think I even saw 2 crock pots! There are lots of pool/beach toys and even some kid life jackets for use. However, the house could use some other basics like additional blankets. If you're a family staying for more than a few days you will want to pack additional: laundry soap (you only get 1 pack), additional dish soap (you get about 1 oz), hand soap (unless you are fine with the soap bars they provide), dishwasher pods (you get 1), paper towels (unless 1 will last your family for the week!), toilet paper (you get 2 rolls per bathroom), cleaning wipes, garbage bags. We left all the extras we bought so hopefully the next few families will be well stocked! Also recommend citronella candles / bug spray for nights on the porch!

Location was excellent! Very nice property. Our family enjoyed our time.

From the rental company to the property, everything is as just perfect!

Nice condo with lots of space, nice pool, short walk to beach. Need new toaster! Cable reception in living room acting crazy? Had a nice stay.

We loved our experience with this property! The unit was clean and well-maintained and location was perfect! Would definitely rent again!
