we love our timeshare condo, too bad the weather did not co- operate, rain most days. Usually I go out boating every day, some times we sit on our back porch and do other things in the area.

The unit we are in is quite comfortable and very well stocked with kitchen wares. It is lakefront and has a really nice view. It's a classic older condo style with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. A couple of small issues but nothing critical (e.g. one burner in the stove was not fully working but the other three were fine). And the management company has been very helpful. I'd come back...

I have loved this place for 35 years. Yes, it's a little dated. But the location is prime. And the amenities (inc. indoor pool, dock, pickleball court) are great. Close to lots of outdoor activities- hiking, skiing, kayaking, etc

We had so much fun over Memorial Day with friends. Our rental was very clean and tidy inside, although could have been better outside. Our deck had cobwebs and dead bugs all over the furniture that we had to clean off before using. We also had a hot tub under the deck area which also needed cleaned and organized, there were also more chairs and tables stacked down there but they needed a good cleaning too before being used. Bring lots of garbage bags, they don't provide any. All in all we made it work and had a great time.

These townhomes are right on the lake, and in a prime spot near 219 bridge to be within only a few minutes of most restaurants on the lake. The decor is a bit outdated, and not the most comfortable, but it's fine for a week. Management is very friendly and wants to please guests to the best of their ability. You can't beat the view of the lake. These homes are a good size for a family or two. We've been renting these properties multiple times a year for about 15 years, and we keep coming back.

I have been staying at lakewood resorts for 34 years. The condos are always clean and getting new updates. The decks have a great view of the lake. There's a private dock for boats as well.
