We chose this property for its location and the space provided even though there were no reviews at that time. And those two things did not disappoint. There were no exterior photos, so we weren't sure if it was a house or multi-unit building, but were please that it was a house. We took advantage of the nearby golf course, and it was a short drive into Bellaire for shops and restaurants. Shorts Brewing pizza and beer was a highlight, and we also went to the cinema. We went to several nearby villages on Torch Lake, and spent an afternoon on a Lake Michigan beach finding Petoskey and Charlevoix stones.
The property was comfortable, but does not feel like someone has really stayed there much. Suggested improvements: some attention to the bathroom doors - they do not open and close easily and are quite noisy; lower level shower drainage; more towels - there are no kitchen towels, and only one washcloth per bathroom with limited hand towels; more shelves in bathrooms; and a good sweep of the exterior entry stairs and deck. Another thing to note, the style and vintage nature of the construction means you can hear everything - so take note if you are sensitive to the noise of other people in the house.
The digital Welcome Packet was sent to us a few days before arrival, and it listed a pass to the beach at Lake Bellaire as one of the amenities, but this was not actually there at the property. The owners offered to get a new one, but we did not need it for our activities.
