About this property

Beautiful Water Views! 1 Bdrm Condo on Lake Michigan - Homestead Rsrt-Glen Arbor

You cannot get a better view of the splendor than from our newly updated deck! The exterior of our condo buildings were just repaired and painted and we'd love for you to enjoy them.

Take in gorgeous water views from this spacious one bedroom condo located on Lake Michigan inside the Homestead Resort property on M-22 in Glen Arbor, MI. Very private location, lake and river views, gated parking by the beach, and beautiful sunsets over the lake.

It is important to note that the Bedroom does not have a door that closes. So, although there is some distance between the bedroom and the living area, the bedroom is open to the hallway that leads to the living room-kitchen combination. See pictures for more details.

Awesome location on two bodies of water: Lake Michigan and the Crystal River. Enjoy a breathtaking view from a deck overlooking the river, Lake Michigan, the Manitou Islands, and Sleeping Bear Point. You will be only 2 miles from the quaint town of Glen Arbor and 20 miles from all the action in Traverse City.

Tube, kayak or SUP on the Crystal River all the way out to Lake Michigan! Walk the beach, stroll along the riverbank, or walk the boardwalk which stretches for blocks, just outside the condo building. Hike or bike the nearby paved Heritage Bike Trail to scenic Northern Michigan destinations.

In the winter you can enjoy the Homestead Resort ski hill for downhill excitement! Or explore the National Shoreline on cross country skis and snowshoes! There are miles of trails inside the Resort and more just a short drive away.

The condo is Heated and Air Conditioned and has cable tv, internet access, and is close to the beach. This condo has a breathtaking view. You will enjoy spectacular evening sunsets over Lake Michigan.

There is a luxurious queen size bed in the bedroom. And the living room sofa will fold open into a full size comfortable futon (see photos)

The condo has one full bath with a walk-in shower (no bathtub), a cute kitchen complete with dishes, silverware, basic cooking utensils, glasses, coffee pot, pots/pans, microwave, stove, refrigerator (NOTE: there is no dishwasher in this unit). Large square bar height table.

Coin operated washer & dryer are located in the common area on the ground floor of the condominium building. There is a gas grill on property for use by condo guests.

This privately owned unit is nestled on the water in a discreetly gated property. No public check in required. The unit is on the second floor of the building and is not handicap accessible.

Note: Although the condo is located inside the Homestead Resort, it is not a resort-owned property, it is privately owned. The Homestead Resort Pools and Tennis Courts are not available for use. There are public tennis courts in Glen Arbor (just minutes down the road). You WILL have access to all of the resort amenities that are open to the public, such as all grounds and beach area, most of the restaurants, golf (ski hill in the winter), spa, salon, and the shops in the Village.

This is perfect for a couple and the location cannot be beat with beautiful sunsets looking out over Lake Michigan and Crystal River. The condo is located in the beautiful grounds of the Homestead resort and the extensive beach is just steps away, all located in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

Vacation

Property was excellent, very good location. Condo was on the small side but fine for two people. Description said their was a washer and dryer which is technically true but they were shared, paid machines in the basement. Given very few towels but provided more when asked.

For a 4 night stay, 2 towels isn’t enough for 2 adults. Coffee pot needs to be replaced with a bigger one. Need more hooks to hang towels and or clothes. Location is great, but unfortunately the smoke from the Canadian fires wrecked the sunsets!

Wonderful

Just right for our needs…Crystal River, dunes, Lake Michigan right outside our window. Easy walk to the beach over a footbridge over the river. Views of Sleeping Bear Dune, Manitou Islands and ship watching. One night a huge ship took cover from a storm in Sleeping Bear Bay…less the 2 miles from Glen Arbor shops and dining. Comfy and quite fully equipped…easy check in and out with an owner eho was very responsive. Will return

Nice Quiet Spot on the Water

Nice quiet little place on the river, just a quick walk over a footy to Lake Michigan. Kitchen and bath areas are small but worked fine for the two of us. Cozy deck for relaxing and enjoying the view.

Sand Bear Dunes Hideaway

Great little hideaway for a trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes. Exactly as advertised and in pictures. Great location - very close to Glen Arbor. Contained with large resort property with very nice grounds but separated and feeling of privacy. Can’t beat walking out the door to your own pretty much private beach on Lake Michigan.

Tall Timbers Condo

This condo is a cute little place that has an amazing view and great location. It was clean plus the bed and furniture were very comfortable. It has a compact kitchen so is not the best for big meal preparation but it worked for us. We would stay her again.
