About this property

Playing Hookie at Schuss

  • Escape to Playing Hookie, a charming one-bedroom condo perfectly located at Schuss Mountain in Shanty Creek Resort. Whether you’re planning a weekend ski trip, a golf getaway, or a peaceful retreat, this well-equipped and inviting space offers everything you need to relax and recharge.

    Guests love the unbeatable location—you’re just steps from the slopes in winter and right on the Schuss Golf Course in summer. Enjoy your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine on the private patio overlooking the greens, listening to the sounds of birds and frogs as you unwind from your day’s adventures.

    Inside, the condo is thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience, featuring a comfortable queen bed, full bath, and a cozy living area with a small sofa bed for extra sleeping space. The updated kitchenette includes a cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, and small fridge—everything you need for a quick breakfast before hitting the slopes or a simple dinner after a day on the course.

    Guests consistently describe the condo as clean, comfortable, and perfectly maintained, with easy check-in/out and a responsive, welcoming host. The first-floor location makes unloading easy, and you’re within walking distance to the resort bar and restaurant, as well as just a short drive to downtown Bellaire and beautiful Torch Lake.

    Whether you’re skiing, golfing, exploring northern Michigan, or simply sneaking away for a few days of “Playing Hookie,” this delightful condo offers the perfect blend of coziness, location, and value—a place you’ll want to return to year after year.
