Relax and Enjoy
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo, with its beautiful view, comfortable furnishings, and quiet location. We enjoyed walking on the trail, watching the rowers on the lake, and being minutes away from shops and dining downtown. The elevator worked fine and the excavation/construction in the area was not an issue during our stay. Our host, Katy, gave us all the info we needed to gain access to the condo, responded quickly to our questions, and gave detailed instructions for checkout, making the process easy. One note: Amazon streaming service was primary. It was a new one to me, but we figured it out. We would gladly stay here again!

Great Spot
The condo is very clean and in a great location! It is stocked with everything you might need for your stay including pots/pans, towels, and even soap/shampoo in the showers. It's close enough to walk to downtown (about a mile) and there is also Right Brain and TC Distillery within a block. The only two downsides were the elevator was down when we were there and there wasn't an update on when it would be fixed so being on the 3rd floor wasn't fun for loading/unloading but that's not the fault of VRBO. Check-in time was more strict than any other place I have been and they ask for money for guaranteed early check-in. However, they were flexible and allowed us to get in a little more than an hour earlier, which we appreciated. It's a great place and I would definitely go back and stay!!

Great experience overall
Requested an early check-in explaining that our guests were flying in shortly after 4PM and we wanted to get the car unloaded before picking them up from the airport. I was told that I would need to pay for an extra night to guarantee an early check-in, or if the space was not rented the day before, they would let me know the day of. On the day of, I sent another message and got an automated response saying they absolutely did not allow early check-ins. This response did not seem like it came from the same person I had been communicating with. Really, 15 minutes would have mad all the difference in the world. (Or even a more personable explanation as to why we could not get in early.) Aside from that experience, our stay was very enjoyable. We had been made aware of the construction ahead of time, and it wasn't very disturbing. There was an issue with the elevator that was dealt with promptly as well. I would strongly suggest that some window coverings be installed in the living area. When the sun is out, the southern half of the sofa is not usable.

Keep Coming Back
I love the light filled living room of this rental and the proximity to the trail. The management is superb to work with. This is not my first stay and won't be the last, when I come to TC.

Awesome Condo
This condo was exactly as portrayed. Very comfortable and fitted out with everything we needed to make our stay very enjoyable. The only disappointment were the TV channels…..way too limited with no local news, weather or sports. We would have liked to know before booking that it was streaming, no cable.

Can't wait to return
spacious beautiful confo-glitches with check- in and the television ( missed the big game of the football season due to streaming only) - but loved being on the lake- watching sunrise and sunsets and the crew teams practicing in mornings. Owners are most kind- a drawer of leftover containers. eco-friendly laundry soap and washing machine soap. Hope to book again soon and thx to staff who responded quickly to our issues. Central location to exploring the entire area and both peninsulas. No issues with construction noise although they were there our last two days. Wonderful stay!
