August 2024 5.00Jason’s place was everything that we could ever need/want and more! My [then] fiancé and I stayed with our wedding party to prepare for and celebrate our wedding. We were able to host our rehearsal dinner for 20 guests with the amazing and accommodating commercial chef style kitchen. One of my beloved bridesmaids owns a restaurant and cooked our meal with ease. The beds were very comfy. Everything was clean and stocked and we enjoyed all of the lovely amenities this place has to offer. Just a few short blocks from bars, restaurants, live music, etc.

August 2024 5.00Beautiful and unique place to stay. Perfect for our family vacation. My daughter loved the kid’s room! Guest bedrooms were comfortable. Master bedroom was stunning! Very walkable. Thanks for having us! We enjoyed our stay.
Its hard to even describe this place, it's like no other! Incredible kitchen that goes on and on - we cooked for 4 days solid 10-14 people and had no problems - plenty of room for each prep station - 2 ovens and a large fridge that handled it all! The loft itself was beautifully decorated for the holiday which was a surprise and oh so appreciated! Many seating groups so you could spread out and yet still be connected - perfect for our extended family. The 3 bedrooms had comfortable beds and linens. It is tough to decide who gets the master, but besides that, was great for the 6 that stayed there. Floors are extra squeaky, but once all in bed the loft was quiet. Great electric blinds to close things out from the street if wanted. If it looks like a fit for your needs - book it!
Jason responded to my messages ( 2 or 3) literally in 30 seconds or less ! This condo is amazing Ski Trip with the kids ( Boyne Mtn) and they absolutely loved this condo Great kitchen to make meals Super comfortable king size beds Highly recommended
