    I like the condo. The only problem I had was with the kitchen table and a very small living room chair. I am a tall guy and my knees would not fit under part of the kitchen table. Living room chair is way too small. The condo was very clean and nice.

    Was a perfect location and very clean. Would be nice to stay there in the summer and enjoy the lake. Definitely no more than two people as it is quite small

    Place was good, but so dry. Older place but bed was very good. Tea pot and electric tea pot are old and chipping so don't use them. Beach was nice but no chairs when we went, maybe since it was October

    We really enjoyed our stay. The Bay and lakes there couldn't be any prettier. I was under the impression each unit had a bay view. Our unit had a garden view. It was still very pretty. I didn't specifically ask. Everyone there is super friendly and accommodating and the cool clean air and water are refreshing. It's very humid where I live. I definitely recommend it!

    This quiet condo is a good place to unwind outside of TC. We had no issues with anything while staying there. It's easy to find and easy to come and go. The price is right and the amenities are good. Parking is excellent. The newer laminate in the kitchenette is nice. Bed is comfortable and towels are nice and fluffy. The beach is convenient and has plenty of space for people to enjoy. Overall it's a good place to land. We enjoyed the quiet space.

    Great Location! It was away from downtown so it was quiet. Yet, a short drive to all the sights. . The bedroom was very nice and kitchen was well stocked.

    Thankful to have found a furnished, clean, comfortable space to spend our winter in TC. True North was accommodating and GT Resort maintenance was friendly and efficient. Will definitely be recommending this listing in the future!
