    This is the second year that we stayed at this condo. I can not say enough wonderful things about this condo. Close the mountain, easy to get to, plenty of room for people to have their own space, game room is awesome, beds are comfortable, very clean and the hosts are wonderful communicators! Do not think twice when choosing this condo to stay in, it is worth every penny!!!!

    We had an awesome long weekend up at schuss for my daughter’s 12th birthday. Everything was accurately described on website. Had a fire one of the nights as it was in single digits and a bit drafty in mainfloor - the fireplace was a great bonus! Used the pool- Saturday night it was packed but Friday and Sunday almost the only ones there

    Great place to stay! Loved the location since it’s a quick drive to ski hills. Also, two cute towns are within 10 minutes so lots of options to eat out. The townhouse itself has comfy beds & great water pressure in the baths. Photos & description are accurate. We’ll be back!

    Wonderful ski weekend to be in northern Michigan. The condo is minutes from the chairlifts of Schuss Mt. Great working kitchen with everything to feed five teenagers (which isn't easy to begin with). No complaints by anyone. Games and drinks to finish off each evening. Amazing time. Fireplace was a big bonus.

    Being the unit on the end offers great windows letting lots of light in. The condo is surrounded by woods with a beautiful view to the golf course and deck is perfect for a bbq and socializing. Lots of room to stretch out inside too and during summer the pool right out front and fire pit are very convenient. Great stay!

    We loved the Up North decor in this condo; it was very relaxing. All the rooms were clean, plus we really enjoyed the great room layout on the first floor which made it easy to all visit while getting our evening meals prepared. The kitchen also was well stocked with dishes, cutlery and cooking ware. It's also close to Torch Lake which we really lied. I would recommend this condo. Everyone in our party was impressed with it.

    This is a well placed cabin in the middle of everything that that area has to offer. The other great thing is that you have access to most of the amenities in the Shanny Creek complex including pools and a quick ride to lots and lots of golf. Additionally there is a pool literally steps from the front door which makes it nice when you want to take a quick dip and hang out. The host is also extremely communicative and willing to answer questions that you may have come back to torch lake we will look for this property again!

    We love the Schuss Mtn/Shanty Creek area! My wife’s family have been coming up here all her life and it’s still beautiful and fun. Jim and Joe’s cabin was perfect, clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. The pool right out the front door was a hit. As was Bob the caretaker who had some great stories and played with the kids. The indoor pools nearby for rainy days were great. We got Muffin Tin in Alden. We went to the beach. We hiked the ski slopes. We did it all and it was wonderful. Thanks Jim and Joe!

    We had a great time during our stay at the townhouse. It was the perfect blend of rustic and updated and was very clean. The owner is very nice and very quick to respond- he also provides an awesome website of things to do, where to eat, etc. The townhouse was less than 15 mins from town, the grocery store, etc. We would definitely stay here again!

    This is a great place to stay. It’s located in a great area. We took several day trips to surrounding cities and lakes that were amazing. This is an easy recommendation to give for several reasons, the owner was super easy to contact with any concerns, the location was great, and the atmosphere was simply amazing. If you want nice relaxing get away this is your spot.
