Retirement celebration in NB

Fantastic stay. Best location and views. Really enjoyed everything about the property. Celebrated a retirement and a couple BIG birthdays and our stay could not have been better. Our host, Melanie, was a joy to rent from and responded very promptly to all of our concerns prior to booking and checking in. Only regret was the weather was not warm enough to enjoy the decks on either end of the unit. But, we already plan to book here again when the weather is warmer.

The condo was very nice with mamy windows and located within walking distance to shops and restaurants. Upon arrival, the code was not accurate, so it was a bit nerve-racking. The owner quickly, so we were able to get in. The condo is a very nice size and offered a nice view of yhe marina. I do feel like the overall cleanliness could have been better.. answered quickly and i

Short walk to the beach- ideal!

Lovely stay, enjoyed the location and the property. My family of 2 kids and 2 adults found the property to be comfortable and not too big, not too small. We had a great stay thanks to a short walk to the New Buffalo beach and into town for dining and shopping.

Weekend get away

The ‘twin over full’ was not conducive for our party. Our 6’4 friend had a hard time fitting in the bed and his wife is claustrophobic. The living room couch had to be used instead. Otherwise. The condo was great. Location was perfect. View was fantastic. Thanks
