We very much enjoyed our stay at The Loft. The place was clean and comfortable. The management company communication was the best I have ever had with VRBO. Location was perfect for us as we golfed several different courses throughout our stay. It is on a busy road but generally quiet at night. We will be repeat visitors.

Petoskey Visit
This is the 2nd time staying at the loft. Nicely appointed condo that has been well maintained and is centrally located to restaurants and downtown Petoskey. The only potential negative is that the bedrooms face the street, so traffic noise can sometimes be an issue.

Petoskey
10 nights at the Loft. 2BR, 2 bath, nicely appointed, with all the required furnishings. Convenient location, with the Brewery Pub & Restaurant directly across the street and conveniently located to Petoskey and Harbor Springs (5-10 minutes depending on where you are going).
Definitely a very good price/value unit!

Lovely
The beds were comfy and the space was nice. The main bathroom floor had so much hair on it, that it was yucky to use without sweeping it. Location was great. If you have trouble sleeping with traffic noise you might want to look at someplace else as it is right next to the road.

Clean and comfortable
Everything about the location was as advertised. I worried that there would be a lot of noise from the road nearby but it was not a problem at all. Also, the air conditioning was excellent, which is a rare feature in the area.

Pleased with our stay
Great condo with great amenities. Located between Harbor Springs and Petoskey, so good location...it is off of a main road if that is a concern for you, but worked out just fine for us. Management company is super responsive and friendly if you need anything during your stay. Really appreciate this being a pet friendly destination, it worked out great for our family. The condo is super clean and all furnishings are in excellent condition. Definitely recommend.
