About the owner: Our family snowbird bought this condo over 10 years ago while visiting friends across the lake. As a Chicago native, he enjoyed floating in the heated pool while exchanging humorous banter with the other snowbirds. The active community fostered many new friendships.

Why this property? If you love the sunshine but not the crowds, then this is the place for you!

Friendly and active complex

Close to everything you need: shopping, groceries, restaurants and beach. Pool out the back door was a convenience. Nicely decorated with comfortable beds.

Lake Bayshore rental H-103

We truly enjoyed our 3 month stay! Marjorie was absolutely terrific and answered all our inquiries! This unit was 50 ft from the clubhouse and pool! The unit was very clean and very tastefully decorated! It was very quiet and we were able to do just what we wanted to do -relax! We made many new friends here and hope to return someday!

Thank you, Carol! We take a lot of pride in our home - especially since the renovation. My sister and I leave a piece of our heart there every time we visit because it is such a comfortable place to recharge our batteries and relax with good company. Safe Travels - We hope to see you again!
