Very clean, quiet and central to all activities. Heather was easy to work with and great at responding to questions. The unit was nice, the only suggestion I have would be an upgrade in the cooling system. It was very warm inside during the higher temperatures, even with using fans.

Great little stop

We were traveling north to the upper Peninsula and just needed a place to stay for the night.The directions in were a bit confusing, but once we read them carefully, we figured it all out.The apartment is very clean and comfortable.It's worth mentioning this is not an air conditioned department so we opened the window and turned on the fan and it cooled down nicelyI would definitely stay here again if we found ourselves in the areaThank you!

This place was easy to find, was close to shopping plaza and/or restaurants. It was so quiet and peaceful. Definitely would recommend this location if you are trying to get away and unwind from the craziness of life. Once I got inside, it felt like home. Very welcoming and relaxing! Will definitely book my next trip here! We absolutely loved it !

A cozy weekend trip

We had a wonderful time from beginning to end. We felt welcomed with the sign on the wall with our name on it and the chocolates by our pillows. The kitchen had many available items for beverages and the coffee maker was nice to have. We were cozy with the bedroom or just resting on the couch/pullout and watching tv. The location was a short walk to downtown Walloon where we enjoyed some coffee and shopping at the market. It was a perfect weekend trip for a CE course and skiing and we would love to return in the future. The only issue was locating the place which we ended up having to find at night. Google Maps shows that State street still goes through towards the downtown area which was confusing for us when we pulled into a parking lot at 10pm. Once we realized that State street does NOT still go through here, we ended up following the side streets around to exactly where the location was marked on the map. Besides this initial confusion, everything about staying at the location was very comfortable.

Great experience!

The place is cozy, recently updated, and clean. My family (2 adults + 2 teenagers) were looking for a comfortable, convenient place for just a couple of days. We liked the quiet simplicity of the village, enjoyed ice cream cones in the park, shopped in the stores, and swam in the lake. Petoskey was a short 10 minute drive away, and was a great place to catch the fireworks & search for Petoskey stones on the shore of Lake Michigan. Would definitely stay there again.

We stayed here for our friends’ wedding right in Walloon Lake and it is the perfect location! We were able to walk to/from the wedding. It is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood and our space was very clean! The host was super helpful in sending me the check in info too. Would stay here again for sure!

My favorite little secret getaway

Unfortunately, my alternator and car battery died, when I backed into #7. I least I got there safe. I trusted the kindness of strangers aka AAA Road service and he knew a mechanic in East Jordan. He did a great job and I walked to my favorite swimming spot and went swimming. It was wonderful. I slept soooooo good last night.
