Check in nightmare

We came to check in with our reservation only to find out that our room was already given to someone else earlier in the day. It then took 30 minutes and several phone calls later to find us a room. The room we had was nice, however the bathroom facet leaked and was falling off the wall.

short two night stay

My husband and I got in very late the first night and were unsure where to go. We called the number listed at 12:30 and the phone was answered right away with a pleasant person who got us to the right place. The room was clean and had all we needed.

Pretty property in confusing area

We stayed at The Legends, part of the vast resort called Shanty Creek. The resort is in a remote area of Michigan, but still close to the Chain of Lakes and Lake Michigan. It is a ski/golf resort so it should be remote. The instructions provided through the VRBO listing were not exact and we had to guess where to go. The room itself was very clean but the furnishings run down. The beds had 2 worn out box springs under the mattress. The pillows were small yet comfortable. The frig/microwave/ and coffee maker were old. The property was a mix of resort and residential on Schuss Mountain making for interesting driving and spectacular views. The pool was great. A full resort with dogs was pretty quiet except when people pulled their luggage across the decks above our heads. This is not a quick trip to swim in Lake Michigan or Torch Lake but the stay was pleasant.

Love staying at these properties. Perfect location for lots of activities and day trips. The room is nice. Housekeeping did not show up during our 4 night stay even after I called on the 3rd day. Other than that we enjoyed our stay there.

perfect for low-need stay

Perfect for any "motel" type need. This property is basically a motel. Typical room with two beds on one wall, with a sink/vanity at the end of the room, and bathroom. If you don't need more than that, it's what you are looking for. No view from this property. We didn't need that either.

Wedding weekend

We stayed here while attending a wedding on the resort property. This was the most reasonably priced place for us. It’s close to everything on the property…walking distance to the lake view hotel, Starbucks, legend/summit golf courses. 5 minute drive to Bellaire. Rooms were very clean, quiet and beautiful views. The rooms are very roomy.
