The condo is very comfortable. The furniture and toaster and could use an update. Trash cans for bedrooms would be beneficial as well as bar soap for the bathrooms. A recycling container in the kitchen would be great next to the trash can along with instructions regarding where to dispose of the same. The lock system for entry is very cumbersome.
Stay was fantastic!! Rick and Ann were very welcoming and organized. Condo was clean and checkin was smooth. Emailed questions were answered promptly. Views of the Lake were stunning and the condo was exactly what we needed. Will definitely look at for another stay!!
The condo was wonderful. Coffee on the deck in the am listening to the birds and sunsets in the evening was great. And always the soothing sound of wind in the pines. Very quiet area, short walk to the beach, water incredibly clear, sandy beach with lots of skipping stones. Wish we had had more time to just enjoy being at the condo and beach, but had several family and event commitments. We hope to return next fall.
We love Glen Arbor with its quaint shops and beautiful beaches:) It’s such a lovely spot with its gorgeous landscape and scenic roads. We had great communication with the property owners and the accommodations were as advertised.
We enjoyed our stay! The condo is beautifully updated and we loved being right on the beach. We also enjoyed the Wilderness. We saw a few deer and other wildlife walking past our deck. One of the nicest stays we've had at the Homestead.
Owners were wonderful, place was beautiful.
Nice updated condo on the beach. The neighborhood was quiet and clean. The beach is beautiful. The condo is super close to town for food, entertainment and shopping. It’s also close to empire bluffs and sleeping bear. Stayed here with 3 young kids. Highly recommend.
Condo is clean and updated. The view is spectacular. Kids loved playing on the beach and having a beach side bonfire. Amazing in all ways. We will stay again!
We loved our stay in Glen Arbor at this property! The rooms are cozy, so the pack and play was tight between two beds, but it worked fine for our small group. Great location and town!
Wonderful location
Cute 3 berm, 2 bath beach front.
We really enjoyed staying at this beautiful townhouse on Lake Michigan. The décor was wonderful with lots of beach, boating and Michigan touches. The newly renovated kitchen was quite lovely and well equipped. There was even a full size washer and dryer in the unit. The master bedroom was quite comfortable with a view of the lake. Both bathrooms seemed to have been recently updated as well. Sitting outside on the back deck and watching the sun slowly set over the Sleeping Bear Dunes, was just spectacular. The Lake Michigan beach, just a one-minute walk from the unit, was beautiful with incredible white sand and clear water. We frequently were the only people on the very long beach and enjoyed hunting for Petoskey stones there. The location of the unit is just perfect. In about 30-45 minutes, we could drive to Traverse City, which had many great food purveyors, allowing us to stock up the kitchen with great food.. The Grand Traverse Pie Company pies were amazing and the Cheese Lady had a very nice cheese selection. We were also close to the small town of Glen Arbor, which had a grocery store for any necessities, which was quite convenient. The Sleeping Bear Dunes bike trail was quite close to the townhouse and was a wonderful trail to ride on. We also took the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive with spectacular views of the lakes and rolling hills. The Leelanau peninsula, about a half hour drive from the property, was lovely for wine tasting, biking and gorgeous scenery. Overall this was a fantastic townhome and we look forward to returning with family members to introduce them to this beautiful area of the country.
We have loved vacationing at The Homestead for years and this property was no exception. Ideally located just steps from the lakeshore and very nicely refurbished. Like most, if not all, of these lakeside condos there is no A/C but the plentiful fans that were installed/supplied were enough to keep us comfortable during our height of summer stay. One very minor grumble, and the only reason my review is 4 stars instead of five, is that more comfortable beds would have made our stay absolutely perfect. That said, we are used to a king size, tempurpedic so any queen, regular bed would probably feel uncomfortable to us. All in all we heartily recommend this property.
Beach is clean and quiet, perfect for a family who wants to avoid the crowd. Beautiful, natural setting.
If your looking for relaxation it will be easy to find here. Very comfortable “home”, enjoy your stay.
Our family had a wonderful stay, with every need met. It was lovely to be steps away from the water and to be able to cook our meals while on vacation in the recently updated kitchen. Too much to do in one stay, we will certainly be back!
Stunning view, backyard is the beach (can’t beat that!), perfect location to visit all nearby must see places, property was crisp and clean. Ann & Rick were amazing hosts!!
