    We had A great time at this rental property. The property was clean and the location is great. Unfortunately the outdoor pool is not open which we were really hoping for.

    We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We hope to see you return in the future!

    Great vacation rental

    Great rental property! Quiet and close to the beach. The property management company was quick to address any concerns. The only thing I can complain about is I would have liked to know the pool was closed before we came. Otherwise I would highly recommend staying at this property.

    Manager Response:
    Our company strives to provide excellent customer service. We apologize for the pool, but we hope we can host you again!

    Relaxing vacation

    The condo was cozy. Short drive to downtown. Close to water. Unable to use swimming pools due to COVID. There was a noisy HVAC system and I did notify Unsalted Vacation. Hopefully this will be taken care of. Overall it was a nice relaxing vacation spot.

    We will look into the HVAC system, and see if there is a way to resolve this issue. Otherwise we're glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay!

    Great location and amenities

    My husband, toddler and I enjoyed a 5 day stay at this condo in a great location in Manistee. Close to the beach and downtown restaurants. Watched sunsets, and then a short walk home. Very convenient and lovely area. My son enjoyed the pools and the playground. Condo was roomy and well equipped for a convenient stay. Just a few issues during our time there ... construction noise at the unit next door (started at 7:45 Sunday morning, jackhammering tile). Not a huge deal, and the owner of the unit apologized, but was still an annoyance with a napping toddler. The only issues with our unit were a noisy blower on the AC unit (we originally thought it was a car alarm?!) and wet carpet in front of the doorwall. Overall, a pleasant stay, and I'd consider staying here again.

    Thank you so much for your review. We are so glad you enjoyed your vacation rental with Unsalted Vacations. It was Unfortunate that some very strong storms came through the area during your stay and caused major flooding to the area. Thank you for understanding the issues that came up and were dealt with. We hope to see you return in the future.

    Freshwater Cove

    Review by Barbara B.
    The property was very close to the pool, workout room and indoor pool. It was just a short walk to the beach. I would recommend this condominium to a friend, but only if the following was addressed by the owner. The owner needs to update the furniture and TV. Also, the cleaners need to do more than surface clean. The baseboards were full of dust, the screen of the 1980's television was dusty enough to write on, the carpet was dirty, glass cabinetry was greasy, and some of the area rugs should be thrown away. Towels and sheets were heaped up on top of the dryer, apparently clean but not folded and put away. The dishwasher leaked on the floor and the air conditioner made a strange loud noise whenever it kicked in. Each time we had a complaint, however, Aaron took care of things to the best of his ability. He responded quickly and let us know that he was working on the problem. He was extremely professional and courteous. I would rate his job performance as a 10 on a scale of 5! The owner of this condominium should be ecstatic to have Aaron managing the property!
