Condo with forest views, washer/dryer, deck, & cable

The place was great for our family of 4 and clean. The neighbor was nosey and horriblem

Everything was great. We really enjoyed our stay.

Love these condos. Stayed in a different condo on the Homestead in 2022 and had a good experience however this time there was a critter problem. Mice poop everywhere in the condo we rented. The mice activity was so loud one night they woke me up just before 4am one morning. We have kids and this health hazard was very concerning for us. Mice poop on the kitchen counters, stove, and all over the floors and carpets… They moved us after multiple complaints. The second condo was beautiful but unfortunately there was also apparently a mice problem there too… mice poop in the decorative trays in the common area and to accompany that there was a dead animal smell along the north wall near the couch and where the dining room table is.

We had a lovely stay. Very clean and peaceful.

SO disappointed with this unit and Vacasa’s failure to respond to our concerns during our stay. Been vacationing in Glen Arbor & The Homestead for 30 years. This unit was the filthiest and least-suitable for a family vacation of any we’ve ever stayed. The plus side is that it made leaving and going home a lot easier. We booked late and had low expectations and knew this was ‘budget friendly’. Budget-friendly doesn’t mean disrepair and filthy. Highlights:Super dirty - especially the linoleum on the first floor (kitchen/dining/half bath) - looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years and we wore sandals on it. See photo of the one ‘tile’ and grout I started to clean. Mouse droppings and dirty throughout. Carpet having two strips of ‘bubbling’ in it making a tripping hazard.Paneling in dining area buckling. Refrigerator main compartment didn’t work - took two days to cool down and even then wasn’t very cold. Rusted out hinges, metal blinds, shower curtain hooks (and salt and pepper!?) due to how damp all three levels of the unit constantly were. One barely functioning tv (the other had a cord missing and wouldn’t work. ONE ceiling fan on upper level (not ceiling fan(S)). Gross and dirty furniture - what little they had. Broken kitchen table. Light switches and outlets that didn’t workPoorly appointed kitchen where what little they had was very old, dirty, broken and cheap.Goodwill wouldn’t take most of what was in this place.

It’s sad because with a minimal investment ($500-$1k) and a deep clean, 90% of what were issues for us - would have been fine. We’ve also stayed with Vacasa many times and have never had this bad of an experience with them.

We loved our family New years up North. The Homestead allows for extended family to join, renting their own place within walking distance, on the well kept grounds at The Homestead. We enjoyed sledding, skiing, and meeting out at restaurants all within walking distance on the property.

The house was nice and clean for our stay. There was plenty of space for all of us. Our issue was that the WiFi was not connected (someone had unplugged the cable) and I had to contact guest services to fix the issue. Another issue was the tv not working. The remotes were not properly set up to operate the tv, so we couldn’t watch anything during our stay. This wasn’t the biggest deal but it took time out of our stay to try to fix them.

This was the perfect location but the condo itself was very dirty and could use some updating (carpet at the very least). We were not able to get the tv to work which wasn’t a big deal for us but it would have been a nice option for downtime. Overall, this is a decent place if you want to rest your head and then spend most of your time out and about.

Loved the location. Condo was clean and well supplied. The appliances could use an update and the paneling in the kitchen eating area was damaged and in need of repair. Loved the screened in porch and the porch that wasn't screened in. Great place to catch up after a fun day. We would stay again.
