Emerald Oasis home managed by Mill Pond Realty Review 3…read morenight stay Thurs July 24 - Sun July 27 Nice home, but be warned -- the A/C system is not fully functional. If you're visiting during warmer weather and don't want to sleep in indoor temperatures in the 80s, this house isn't for you. Thurs: We contacted Mill Ponds, the home's management company, as soon as we checked in at 4:15pm telling them it was 82 in the house. They sent Damon, who was very nice, with one box fan to the house. He plugged it in and it didn't work. He said he would see if there were any other in their office but there weren't. The management office told me that evening they contacted the home's owner & explained the A/C issue. They said the owner said they placed an order for a window A/C unit and it would be delivered the next day, Friday. We thought OK, we have no choice, we have to sleep in this heat, but at least it's just for one night. It was so miserable sleeping. Fri: The management company sent an HVAC worker to the house to check out the system. He didn't know exactly why it was so hot as it seemed to be working ok, but he felt one of the reasons was because there were not enough vents for the size of the house. After back and forth that day with the management company in regards to at least getting the promised window AC unit, we learned the AC unit would not arrive until after our check out. I can't tell you for sure if this was because the home's owner lied to them or if it was the management company didn't actually contact them. Needless to say, we never received it. We had to sleep in this temperature again. Saturday: Melanie from Mill Ponds called and said she can't imagine how uncomfortable we were and would let us check out that night and not charge us if we wanted, but I told her we wouldn't have anywhere to go, which I imagine she knew since she told us it was the busiest weekend of the year in Saugatuck. I told her we would deal this last night but that I would expect compensation and she agreed. We slept in the 80s for the 3rd night. She ended up refunding us $390 for 8 people. We received $48.75/person for what I described above. She was going to let us check out Saturday evening and refund us the full night of $1000 plus give us some sort of compensation for the other 2 nights and instead gave us this. On the unit listing page, it does show air conditioning in the unit twice, once under amenities and once under property features. We would have never booked a home in Michigan, especially in July that did not have appropriate air conditioning. I do want to say that the management company was communicative, but that doesn't change the fact that we were miserable and so uncomfortable in the home for 3 days/nights. I do also want to say we were very kind and patient throughout the weekend in our communication with them, which Melanie also told us they appreciated. Would not recommend this home in the warm weather or Mill Ponds Realty. They really gave us the run around for 3 straight days.

The upstairs was very uncomfortable for the family staying up there. While they responded quickly it took them 4 days to get it working properly which we found unacceptable. Also, my husband had a very long career in HVAC industry, but their team member was not interested in his input as to the issue, which turned out to be accurate input. Also, there was no hot water, two clogged drains and a non-working closet light upon arrival. We have gone back and forth with management and they have refused any form of compensation for the inconveniences.

I've read many bad reviews about them, and think they are outdated. The current team ( as of March 2024) is great to work with. In years past, there have been few rude people or ones that are hard deal with, but everything is fine now. Which is why I say the bad reviews may be outdated. The owner of my property invests A LOT in keeping the building nice. They put on all new roofs a few years ago, put in a new boiler, and are installing new windows this spring. They do landscaping every year and planted new tress last year. My building is as solid as they come. Even though the property was build in 1960's or 70's, you would never know. It was quality when they built it, and has been maintained very well. The only negative is that my rent goes up every year :( Even with that, it's still a very nice place to live. If rent continues to go every year, I may explore other options however.

People in the office are nice enough to deal with. You are better off to call, email could take a while to get a response if at all. One of the tenants in the building I lived in had someone not on the lease living in their unit, and both smoked in the building. They were made aware of the issues, but continued to allow the person not on the lease to live in the building. They will dock you for everything little thing when you move out. So please, document everything and take lot of pictures to protect yourself.

In addition, she showed it to use two other times in person as we got buy-in from our extended family. Once we were under contract, Traci coordinated many tradespeople to perform work on the property so that upon closing, we could get moving. She kept us up to date on a very complex transaction (the septic system needed to get replaced at the last minute, several delays due to things out of our control) and always had a smile on her face. We're eternally grateful for the hard work she put in and helping us buy this place.
