Good place to stay!
We stayed here with my family for a long weekend trip to GR at the end of July ‘22. The listing was accurate and what we needed for this trip. The condos are nice, but dated. There is an A/C unit in the living room, but the rooms got for very warm - 80° - even with fans. The stairs are also very steep so I recommend booking the lower level condos if you are not good with stairs or have small children. Overall, a decent stay with no major complaints.

Although the stairs to the unit were steep, that didn't stop us from having a great time enjoying both units with our own rooms privately. We tried our best to make sure the kids weren't too loud or if everyone was going in and out of the units to the other one, we had no complaints but I felt bad because we were still too loud. The plan was to stay at a house but we all enjoyed the two units here. If some things didn't work out at the first unit, we would check the second unit for things and that felt like nice back up. The owner did a great job replying back, no matter how early or late.
