Came up to Shanty Creek to ski and check out the local area of Bellaire. My family and I loved the condo and the proximity to everything. We skied mountain while here. It was a great ski resort and within 10 minutes of the condo. Shanty bar, pizza and subs, a coffee shop, and the lakeview hotel was just a short walk away from the condo. We’ll definitely stay here again while up in the area.

This property felt like home away from home. It was quiet and accommodated all our needs. I would have given this place a 5-star, but the outside conditions weren't as nice. The walk away remained very icy, making it difficult to walk in and out of the condo.
We really enjoyed our visit. We had a small problem in the beginning, but the owner was very quick to respond and fix the issue. It would have been good to know that this is a lower level unit and you need to walk down a flight of stairs to get to it. With bad knees, this was not the best for me, but the rest of my family had no problems. Overall I would recommend this property and dealing with Eddie.
