Our June Manistee MI Getaway
We have stayed at Harbor Village condos many times and this unit was one of the two best condos that we stayed in. We had great views of Lake Michigan and the man made lake including the many deer that we saw. This unit is also only a short walk to the beaches, marina, the pools and spa. We were also only a short drive to the downtown area that has many restaurants and a river walk. We were able to bring our little Pomeranian along with us too because they allow pets. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We shall return. Thank you with a special shout out to Jessica of Boardwalk Vacation rentals for all of her help.

Great location, but needs some TLC
Great location, close walk to the beach. Arrived after dark and it was very difficult to find the building; there was very little lighting on the property and the building was not well marked. The bedding and towels had stains and several of the plumbing and electrical fixtures did not work properly. The condo has a ton of potential….great space, great location, and loved the fireplace, but for the cost, it needs some updating.

Great Location - Wonderful Stay
We rented the property for two nights to see the leaves change. The property was well decorated and up to date but a couple of cleanliness items stood out. The towels had stains on them and the utensil drawer was a mess with no organizer for the utensils. Other than that I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful view, but
It's been a very long time since we rented anything for a get away. We have been RV'ing for many years. This property has alot going for it. The view is wonderful and peaceful. The community itself is great for walking, the grounds are lovely. The indoor pool facility is fantastic. We really enjoyed that. The location is very close to town, which was a definite plus. We knew in advance this was a 2nd story unit, but was not aware the parking was not convenient when loading and unloading vehicle. Kitchen is very small (one drawer for flatware which is just thrown in the drawer without any dividers). This led me to wash everything before we used it. The can opener provided did not work. (Bought new one and left it for next guest). Also, no corkscrew provided. Sheet pan needs replaced. Don't plan on doing alot of cooking in this unit. No dish rag provided for wiping counters etc. The balcony was a great place to have coffee or just sit and relax and enjoy the view, but the deck, rails, walls of condo needed cleaned desparately. Bedroom was nice size and well appointed. Bathrooms were also nice. Half bath on first floor convenient. Again, it's been a long time since we rented vacation home so m y expectations might be to high. I'm sure these units get alot of us with the amount of guests they get. Lastly, the 4pm check in time seems late. I know the rates are "nightly". All and all , we had a nice time in the Manistee area.

Nice Stay
The property was as advertised and the views were terrific. It was the perfect size space for us. We did not find that the unit was difficult to locate as others had mentioned. The unit had pretty much all the essentials you would want. We stayed with our short haired pointer and were grateful we could bring her. I would suggest a more thorough cleaning of the floors/rugs in between guest visits. Our socks collected alot of dog hair that was not our own dogs hair. Despite that I would stay again!

Remodeled?
Tons of steps which are busted outside the unit as well as some odd steps inside. Not well equipped in the kitchen as there were few utensils and only a few silverware. It's definitely an older unit and worn a bit but cozy and comfy for two people. While there's a nice view of water, it's the man made lake. Windows were dirty so view not as spectacular. Nothing at all to eat as there's a handful of places. And yet, Somehow it turned out to be a much needed nice break. Also, no cleaning supplies at all and walls are super thin so bring ear plugs

Lovely View Close to Beach
This was property is beautiful! My (non-shedding) dog and I loved the view and the proximity to the beach. We saw several deer each night. Sunsets over Lake Michigan are always stunning. The wifi/cable wasn't working, but that was immediately addressed by the property manager & owner and corrected by the ISP. That shouldn't be an issue in the future. I will say it was challenging to find the condo as the number doesn't face the street. This isn't affecting my rating, just making others aware to look for the number facing the "pond." The condo was clean, well-kept, and comfortable. The property manager was available, responsive, and courteous. Thank you for a wonderful stay! I'll definitely be back!!!

Great Mid-Winter Break
Condo was warm and cozy with awesome view of Lake Michigan. Lots of deer to watch in the morning and evening. Enjoyed use of the pool and fitness center. Fireplace was great to come “home” to after hiking along the Manistee River to the “Mini Mac” which was highlighted on your “things to do” list. Comfy bed and we so appreciate being able to bring our dog.

We really enjoyed our stay and it allowed us to spend a nice time away with just the three of us.
We really enjoyed our stay and it allowed us to spend a nice time away with just the three of us (Christine, me, and Willow). It also allowed us to imagine what it might be nice if we lived in a condo instead of the house we have. On the whole, condo living might be pretty good, but both Christine and I would need a two-bedroom, one-floor unit. Getting too old to go up and down stairs and in the one-bedroom we had, there was no space for a washer and dryer. As for the rental aspect, there were a few things that were less than ideal: 1- Very difficult to find the unit once on the property. Fortunately an employee saw we were lost and directed us to the right unit. 2- Door lock very hard to open. The door was a push-button electric lock and you had to hold the door closed tight or the deadbolt wouldn't slide. 3- No bottom bed sheet. We used the top sheet to cover the mattress and just used blanket for covers. 4- Wash cloth in upstairs bathroom was stained. 5- Blinds in living room didn't work and were very dirty. One of the blinds in dining room also didn't work. 6- Sand on the living room floor. Now, that might not be such a big deal, considering we were only about 1/4 mile from Lake Michigan and tight across the street from Man Made Lake, which had a sandy path down to the shore, but every guest pays a $130 cleaning fee as part of the rental. One would think that $130 would get you a clean floor. 7- A lot of dust in the cold air return in the living room. 8- The information sheet on counter stated pets not allowed, even though we stated we had a pet when we booked. On-site manager said the info sheet needed updating. How much effort would that take? 9- There was a dishwasher but almost no dishwasher soap. Fortunately, we made it work. 10- No dish cloths or towels. 11- Onsuite toilet seat is loose. Now, perhaps many people might not care too much about that, but it's a pet peeve of mine when I rent a place - be it cottage, condo or hotel. It takes all of five minutes to ensure the bolt is tight and it would be easy for that $130 cleaning service to tell the management or just fix it themselves. This sounds like I'm grousing and maybe I am, but we both enjoyed staying there and might again at some point.
