This was our 2nd time there, and it was another wonderful experience! We stayed in a 2 bedroom condo which was very spacious and comfortable for our family of 5 and our dogs. We loved the cold plunge, sauna, hot tub, and walking into town each day. Even though it’s a small town, the restaurants are great and there are so many nice walking/biking paths.

Our stay here was very nice, the place was very clean and tidy. Had a perfect modern touch to it and the amenities were great. We really enjoyed the hot tub, and the choice to use the sauna, kayaks, and bicycles. The putting course near the entrance was a cute touch. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it if looking to stay in this area of Michigan. It was also only about a 10 minute drive from Torch Lake which was our reason for the visit!
