Bella Vista Bay Condominiums
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $183K·Walkability 5.2/10·Schools 8.7/10
You'll drive through quiet streets in Rockford and land at a condo community where lakeside living actually feels manageable — Bella Vista Bay sits on just four acres, but residents here get something way bigger: full access to all-sports Lake Bella Vista, which brings beaches, dock and boat launch, tennis and pickleball courts, and enough mature trees scattered across the grounds to mean your balcony actually feels private. Third-floor units come with their own outdoor space overlooking established landscaping, and the whole setup is only ten minutes from downtown Rockford's shops and restaurants. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 24 minutes north if you're after bigger-city dining or culture, and Gerald R. Ford Airport runs roughly 33 minutes.

Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
