We stayed in unit 10 which was comfortable but minimalistic, depends on what you are looking for. This unit did not have a very good view of Spider Lake, If you’re looking lmto be on the lake, you may want to look at one of the other rental units there. The furniture is lower to the ground and semi comfortable. There are no closets at all. We were there for a week and I like to be able to hang my clothes and was unable to do so. The two bedrooms provide decent space and the queen beds were very comfortable. We used the second bedroom as our closet. It’s quite dark at night so if you are coming back late, make sure you have your cell phone light or a flashlight to help you undo the lock into the unit. The area is really beautiful and quite close to Traverse City. There are not a lot of restaurants around the lake without going into Traverse City. We ended up at a restaurant called Peejoes several times as we didn’t want to drive back to Traverse City. The property manager was very prompt in his responses and was very helpful. Al in all,a nice stay ##### Rebekah J.
