Great location and views

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.

Cute small condo w/great views

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!!

Great location!

The location of this property was perfect, the pool was very nice and it was great to wake up to the sunrise over the marina. The only issue with this particular unit is that it does not have WiFi which was inconvenient. Otherwise very nice in all respects.
