Perfect Fall Getaway with Gorgeous View

Needed a place to stay for just one night and this condo gave us a perfect little haven. So clean and well appointed amenities. And the view was spectacular with the fall colors. Only regret was not being able to stay a few more days to enjoy this special place. Thank you!

Anniversary Weekend On Grand Traverse Bay

This is our 3rd time renting from Dawn this year, and the studio condo was great. The condo has just enough space for a couple, and the kitchenette provides a little something extra over a standard hotel room. Not to mention the views! My husband and I love coming up to the Traverse City area, and staying at The Shores condos is very convenient with lots of amenitiies included with the resort. Thank you Dawn for a relaxing anniversary getaway.

Fantastic property

This condo is the perfect place to stay for a couple! It has great views, bed and shower. Dawn and Lisette were extremely attentive in every respect. Everything you could need is in it from cooking supplies to extras like coffee, cream, various spices, toiletries and a full washer and dryer with supplies. The beach is perfect and not crowded since it is private property for the condo residents only. The only downside, which has nothing to do with the condo, is the live music on Friday night. It was not something we enjoyed, since we came to be in nature and enjoy outside, not hear someone sing. We would stay again without a doubt, we would just bring ear plugs! Lol 🙂

Great Get Away

My husband and I love the Traverse City area and we love that this condo is just a short drive away from there. Even in the cooler temperatures, we were able to enjoy the water views, roam the beach nearby, and cozy up in the condo to keep warm.

Beautiful, clean, updated condo

When my husband and I walked through the door, there was a magnificent sunset. We quickly moved our bags into the condo and walked the beach loving every moment. What a great way to start a vacation! Upon coming back to the unit, we both commented on how accurate the pictures represented the space, lovely decor and cleanliness. Everything that you need was provided. Both of us highly recommend this rental and look forward to going back there again.
