What a lovely spot! Not a bad view anywhere. We loved our upper level room, with a view of the lake, and our friends had one of the 2 story rooms with an upper deck and lower patio. I wish I had more time to spend there!

I was looking for an inexpensive place to stay for a wedding in Traverse City. For how much it cost it was exactly what I needed. I am a fisherman and was a little disappointed I couldn’t fish off of the docks that were outside my door. The room was a bit better than I expected, very comfortable, AC worked great.

There is only one very small bathroom for a place that is advertised to sleep 6. The shower leaks constantly, which we were not told about until our first or second day when I saw the young lady cleaning the room next door and asked for more towels as the bathroom stays wet due to constant dripping and there is no fan in the bathroom. She said the problem was in the wall. The bathroom was always wet, the shower stall was old and mildewed, very unsightly and unsafe for us 60+ adults trying to get cleaned up over multiple days & nights. The staff was very nice.

Fun place.

Fife Lake was beautiful. The accommodations were nice. The only recommendation that I would say is that someone should clean the room if you’re staying there for a week and the beach that they offer should be cleaned from the goose feces and seaweed.

The lack of a “front desk” or onsite assistance is a bit frustrating but we stayed longer than your average visitor so that may not be a common issue. Otherwise, great property on Fife Lake.

It was beautiful views and a cute apartment. Water pressure was poor and the circuit breaks if you run more than one appliance in the kitchen. Staff was friendly.
