My first time staying at this location and I was pleasantly surprised by many things. The room was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. The sunrise on the lake was absolutely breathtaking and so calming. Just what I needed.

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.

This place was exactly as advertised. Quiet with a great view of the lake. Easy access to grocery/gas. Nice hot shower as well. I would stay here again! It was very nice to have a full refrigerator and freezer as well as a stove and oven to be able to cook meals as well.

Beautiful lake view. Very relaxing. The room is outdated. Carpet was very dirty. Being ground floor lake property, the room was musty smelling and bathroom had a very strong odor. Cleaning staff did pour cleaner in drain of shower and that helped a lot.

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.

The place is fine but it’s not what I requested. I did’t ask for a room with a kitchen. I asked for a 72 dollar room and was given a 165 dollar room. And I had to ask for the access code and instructions. When I got the email about the check in instructions, the link didn’t work.

Good location Good price

Nice centrally located small lake community. Easy day trips Traverse City, Fishtown, the Dunes and Turtlecreek Casino!!! Older but updated nicely building and unit. My only complaint was that the shower head was broken where it attaches to the shower wall and we had to hold it while showering which was awkward.

Liked that this is easy to get to, and easy to get in. No lobby, just a code to get you in the door, which I like. Beds were comfy with fluffy pillows. Loved that there was a mini fridge and microwave; not all places have both. Bathroom was nice and big and doesn't feel like an afterthought. Loved that our room was on the ground floor with a view of the lake. There is mild traffic outside, but if you can handle the occasional loud muffler or motorcycle, you'll be ok. All in all, we enjoyed our stay.

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.

Clean but with strong odor

When we first came in our room, there was this strong odor as if to mask smoke. I had to open the windows and door so the strong odor would go away. Aside from that the room was very clean and organized.
