$120 for a One-Night Stay at Rivers Edge Condos in Algoma ($240 Value)

Statistically, home is the place you’re most likely to fall asleep under a running lawn mower or spontaneously combust while trying to slow dance with a running lawn mower. Find a safe haven with today’s Groupon: for $120, you get a one-night stay in a three-bedroom condo at Rivers Edge Condos in Algoma (a $240 value). Today’s deal is valid through September 30, 2011. Rivers Edge Condos dazzles guests with luxury accommodations perched on the bank of the Ahnapee River and within walking distance of Lake Michigan, sparing them traffic-borne tension by residing just minutes from Door County. Relaxed visitors can stroll along the lake shore before retiring to a fully furnished three-bedroom, two- to three-bath condo replete with air-conditioning to cool weary brows, a wet bar to quench parched mouths, and cable TV to refresh eyeballs with images of pretty starlets. Anglers can rent fishing poles and fillet freshly caught trout in their vacation-abode’s kitchen before laying tender morsels on the outdoor gas grill. Guests can also rent bicycles to explore downtown Algoma and wash their fresh-air-stained clothing in the unit’s washer and dryer at the end of the day. In addition to an overnight stay, today’s deal entitles fishing-inclined customers to $50 off a six-hour chartered fishing trip ($575–$600) or $100 off an eight-hour trip ($700–$725) from RV Charters . Armed with rods and tackle, passengers stand by eagerly as captains chase down Lake Michigan’s stock of king salmon and trout before settling in for a day of challenging fishy fights and tearful tales about the ones that got away.
