Great weekend

The property is in a great, central location. Exactly as advertised. It has a nice balcony overlooking the sledding hill. Bed was very comfortable and plenty of firewood for the fireplace. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great Place For Us To Stay

The location of this property fit our needs perfectly. Very close to Bellaire and to my hunting property. The owners were excellent in communicating with us and the amenities were great. If all goes well hope to be back next year!

Up north getaway

This property is amazing, has a full kitchen which we loved. Has a main room that has one double bed and a sleeper sofa. An awesome balcony to sit outside, only downfall on that was the cushions were wet. Other than that truly enjoyed our trip and looking forward to staying there again

Clean and comfortable

It's a great property, clean condo and quiet building. We've stayed at another condo nearby with a different owner and it was a terrible experience. If we go back to Bellaire, we will try to stay at this owner's place again, it was great.

Beautiful Scenic Vista from the Balcony

The condo was lovely! The view from the balcony was stunning! Love that it had a full-size fridge, dishwasher, and 12-cup coffee maker. The only thing the condo lacked was a chest of drawers, so we could've unpacked our suitcases in the week that we stayed. Would definitely stay again.

Good cozy place up north

Good clean and cozy place. Loved the pool and hot tub access. This is not a ski in / ski out as advertised since the mountain was closed for skiing a few years ago. The ad should be updated. It wasn’t a huge deal to us and otherwise the stay was great.

This property is little scuffed up. The table had a lot of scratches. I couldn't find the checkin instructions so I called the property manager and he responded after 4 hours.

Clean

This property was clean, but needs a lot of updating. Things we're broken and scratched but not unusable. This property is attached to 2 others on either side of the condo and connected by thin doors so you can hear the neighbors conversations. The fireplace was nice. Overall a decent stay.

I'll be perfectly honest. The property was fine and had everything we needed, but it was just someplace to sleep at night. We didn't partake of any of the amenities beyond the room itself and that was just at night. The place was clean and quiet with a picturesque view and close enough to the locations I wanted to reach that it met all of my needs. I had no problems overall and would definitely be willing to stay again in the future.

Beautiful location in 1st building next to the Lake View Lodge and ski slopes at Summit. Unit was old and had worn carpet and furniture. Roku TV but with no cable news channels. Noisy party above us kept us awake on Friday night.

Average

Balcony was unusable, as the cushions had already been removed from the chairs and there were no plastic or other sort of chair that could be used. Head board to the bed was broken and the bathroom is really small. There were odd looking fabric screens hiding two side doors into other units. The doors were not lockable from the room, but I suspect residents from other adjacent units could unlock it and enter. Otherwise, it wasn’t bad, nor was it impressive.

Three major problems we had

The condo itself was nice and in a beautiful location. HOWEVER, we had 3 major problems for the 2 nights we were there. First, the balcony view was beautiful, but the door to the balcony would not open. Secondly, there were doors between the condos that were not secured, and we were surprised when our "neighbor " opened the door to our condo! Thirdly, we tried calling the phone number listed on the wall for help with these matters, and that lead to a dead end because it was maintenance for the hotel system and not for personally owned condos. So then we called Constantin and since she didn't answer, we had to leave a message asking her to call back. She never returned our call, so our problems were never addressed.
