Glen Arbor, Michigan
Enjoy Glen Arbor in this one-of-a-kind; very cool 4 bedroom/3 bath historical home that sleeps 12. This home once belonged to the founder of Glen Arbor and is a little piece of Glen Arbor history. "Barefootin on M22" is a great home and is an easy walk to a beautiful Lake Michigan beach down a quiet dirt road. 2 level home faces East, located on River Rd. (M-22).
Living area large enough for your whole group on main floor. DVD, WIFI, whole house stereo with iPod docking. Full kitchen (with dishwasher) off living area. There are three large bedrooms on the main floor two with one queen bed and one with a king. Spacious, open-style sleeping quarters upstairs have two queen beds and two twins, plus TV. Two bathrooms on the main level and one upstairs. Remodeled with a "green" mindset, this house has low-flow bathroom fixtures, CFLs, and recycling bins provided. Perfect fall location too! This property is a welcoming home to make lots of memories.
Outside, enjoy the gorgeous deck and patio area. Just perfect for a get-together around the fire pit at the end of the day. Frontage on the Crystal River just across the street from the home with four kayaks provided. Easy walk to lovely Lake Michigan! Gas grill and fire pit.
A great spot to stay when you want to enjoy Leelanau. Just a 5-minute drive to the Sleeping Bear Dunes climb. A 5-minute walk to Sunset Point Beach on Lake Michigan, with great views of North and South Manitou Islands. M22 is a 1/2 mile into the heart of Glen Arbor where you can dine, shop, and even play mini-golf! Bocce ball and croquet provided for outdoor fun.

Short walk to a GREAT beach!! We loved walking up the beach into the town of Glen Arbor in the mornings to get our coffee. House is very roomy. Beds are comfy. Upstairs is huge, it was great for our college age kids. Outdoor area was a bit overgrown and road noise was loud, so we walked down to the beach for most of our outdoor relaxing. Location is a good launching point for visiting all the nearby towns.
It is, as described, a historic property, so do not be disappointed by lack of a modern floor plan or furnishings. Main floor is spacious, and very quiet despite proximity to M22. The upstairs suite was great for two grandsons and their parents. We all enjoyed congregating on the back deck, and the short walk to the Lake was a special feature.
The house is right on M22 but still felt like a cozy getaway. Plenty of space for our large extended family to relax in and out. The kitchen was well stocked and spacious enough for a few cooks to create wonderful meals. Highly recommend it for a large group of older kids and adults. Matt was a great host and available for questions!

Reviewer Comments: Our family had a fantastic time and this house was a spacious yet cozy feeling “home base” for beach going, hiking, kayaking, shopping, sightseeing and dining!
This home is ideally located for kayaking the Crystal River (across the street). The dune hike is a short drive away. The quaint town of Glen Arbor is less than a mile away. Lake Michigan sunsets are less than 1/2 mile away. Home was very large and had a nice set up with a hangout space upstairs
We had a great time at Barefootin on 22! The Great Granddaughters loved the upstairs bedroom. Close to all the quaint little towns to explore.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The curb appeal is lacking and is on a fairly busy road. However, once you start enjoying the house it makes up for location. The 10 friends enjoyed the very large living and dining areas. The kitchen and baths have been updated; watch your balance on the shower tiled floors though. The owner was very responsive and brought over a new toaster and coffee pot the day after we reported it. Management was very responsive also. Would recommend this house for a large group.
This lovely home, it’s garden and the short walk to the beach made for a relaxing and connecting family weekend. The kids played cards, croquet, laid in the sun and cooked some great meals on the grill. We walked our dogs to the beach at least twice a day and were surprised at how quiet it was. We did lots of swimming. House is charming and would accommodate more than our group of 8 easily. Access to town by kayak was a wonderful surprise. We made many happy memories there and would highly recommend.
This property is amazing - so much history, eclectic decor, location was great (close to river, beach, and shops/restaurants of Glen Arbor), great outdoor space.

Hiking trails nearby and Glen Arbor offers activities, shopping and dining.
We had a family gathering of a large group ranging from age 19-82. The property was perfect! We all were able to gather comfortably, yet not feel like we were on top of one another. The house is spacious and offers a lot of outdoor areas to accommodate everyone! The short walk down the road to Lake Michigan became our evening ritual to watch the sunset! The house is in an area so close to so many great things which allowed everyone in our group to fill their days. I would highly recommend this beautiful historic home!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. THE LOCATION!!! It's a 5 minute walk down our street to lake Michigan, the river across the street you can kayak, and a 15 minute walk to town. The house is amazing and so much space for 12 people. We came here for our friends birthday and it was the perfect place for us to all be together. We will absolutely be back

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you want to be close to Glen Arbor, this it the place. It's a little close to the road and can be just a tad noisy during the night, the occasional truck will go by, but it's not bad. It's definitely old inside, but not run down, just vintage looking. Everything works well, it's clean, ac works.
