Great Location-Comfortable

My wife and I had a great stay. The location to the city beach on Lake Michigan was perfect. Restaurants and brewery were easy walk. Location was easy access to many wineries and wine tastings! Room was comfortable. Air conditioner was noisy, better to leave it on when we weren't in the room and crank it when we were gone. Would definately go back.

Just what we needed for the weekend

We were here for two nights and it was just perfect. The location is awesome. We had family at the Weko camp ground which was only a ten minute walk (0.48 mi) and the beach was 0.70 a fourteen minute walk. Parking was insane at the beach so we were grateful not to have to worry about that. The apartment itself was nicely decorated and very clean! I text Jennifer the property manager and she text me immediately! We did bring a large fan and it really did help keep the bedroom cool. One thing I would tell others to bring is an extension cord. There is only an outlet on one side of the bed and I like my phone right by me. It wasn't a huge deal just had to get out of bed to plug it in when I was ready to fall asleep. We will definitely look this place up again!

Perfect location, cute little town

Family wedding in Berrien Springs. Drive there was so easy. Welcome party up the street in Bridgman, could have walked. Walked to Weko Beach when parking lot was full and still had energy to walk the beach. Walked to great restaurant several blocks away. Several diner cafes for breakfast.

Clean and quiet

It is really clean little place. My wife thought it was cute. I was expecting something a little nicer for the money. Its actually the extra fees that add up. But if your looking for a quiet little place to stay, this is it.

Great place, close to Weeki Beach

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay. Very convenient location. Very clean and cute place. Only suggestion would be for summer visit is to bring a fan for bedroom since air conditioning window unit is in main room. I would definitely book again if we are in that area.

Comfy base camp

Very clean and comfortable place. Bring an extra fan for the summer since the AC doesn’t quite get to the bedroom. Kitchen is good for the size place. For us, this was a perfect place for resting after being out all day and making light meals.

Beach time

Property is pretty basic, but very clean and cutely decorated; had everything we needed. Bed was very comfortable. The only complaint would be the AC - in order to cool the bedroom, you need to freeze the rest of the place as the air does not circulate directly into the bedroom...but, on the other hand...everything you need is within walking distance. 11 minute walk to beach. Beach is clean/not overly crowded. Enjoyed the fish fry at Get-a-Way Grill & Cubbie Bar and later, Scoops ice cream. Also went to Haymarket Brewery. Menu is limited but hubby enjoyed beer. Would go back as we enjoyed the area/beach.

Cute and clean!!

This apartment was great for a week in Michigan!! Very clean!!! Had everything that was advertised! I missed the emails that were sent to me with the info to get in so I had to message the owner and she responded VERY quickly and was so so helpful! Only thing that didn’t impress me was the bed. The bed was hard and uncomfortable. Wouldn't stop me from renting here again but would def be better if the bed had more support. There is a beach just a walk away and plenty of other beaches just a short drive away. Cute little shops around town.

We love the condo, it was perfect for what we needed. We loved that it was in walking distance to the beach. It is perfect if your spending most of your time at the beach. Probably more fitting for just adults. Overall we loved it and will be back.

Great Location!

10 minute walk to beautiful Lake Michigan! Cute little condo, great for one person or a couple. Most things needed were provided no issue there. Good internet access if you need to work remote and Direct TV with complimentary HBO and Netflix. I was a bit disappointed to realize the "air conditioning" was a room unit in the living room, a LOUD AC unit (it was in the 90s the first few days I stayed). Conference calls had to take precedence over AC, and any TV watching was with sub titles,, LOL. Sleeping was a little difficult due to wall unit only, otherwise stay was great. Bridgman is a cute little town with great eating spots and CLOSE to many many great winery's! Will stay again.
