About this property

Lodge-style multi-level home at the Homestead in Glen Arbor. Deck with grill.

This home has a huge living room/dining room combination with a wood-burning fireplace and tall windows throughout that provide gorgeous views of the woods. Off of the living room, step out onto the huge deck with a grill and seating. Depending on the season, there can be views of wildflowers and wildlife from the deck.

If you're looking for things to do, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, and the Heritage Trail are just a few of the natural treasures in our area. There is also canoeing on the Crystal River and shopping in the many towns and villages in Leelanau County.

The home was clean, comfortable, and just as described. We appreciated how tidy everything was. Unfortunately, the driveway hadn’t been plowed when we arrived, and we got stuck several times. We were told it would be taken care of after reaching out to the host, but no one ever came. Also, the lower level heat wasn’t working, making it quite cold downstairs. With better snow removal and the heating issue fixed, this would be a great rental.

Great location

We had a great stay! We had 2 families, 4 adults and 3 kids total. Plenty of room. No access to pools which is a bummer, but access to beaches and restaurants on the property. Great location.

My sisters and I stayed during a beautiful week in September. The house was perfect, other than some ants, but we’ve come to expect them in the middle of the woods, so no big deal. My family was the original builders and owners of this house, so it was just as we remembered it, along with some amazing new renovations. The Homestead, and more specifically, this house, holds a special place in our hearts! Thank you for allowing us to stay and relive some childhood memories. It was just as magical as we remembered.

The home had space for people to escape and the location and setting served as a great central location to get out and explore or stay behind and read and relax amongst the trees.

Beautiful views - surrounded by trees

Nestled just off the road surrounded by trees the living room has massive windows on each side to enjoy the view. Master bedroom suite upstairs with views looking down into the valley. The kitchen was adequately equipped for cooking and a nice grill to use.

Lodge in the Woods

The lodge was well-prepared for our stay including propane for the grill. We would book this house again and highly recommend it as a rental facility. No communication with the property manager was necessary.

Great getaway but needs more upkeep

Overall, we had a wonderful stay. Enjoyed the location and feeling of being in the middle of the woods. Would have been better with more comfortable furniture in the living room to read, relax and settle down with a movie. The kitchen and grill for breakfast and dinner were great, as well as the updated washer / dryer! Would have been nice to sit on the deck but the patio & furniture needed a good cleaning. Upon arrival we noticed the cleanliness was mediocre, dirty counters, sinks, plates and utensils. Very convenient location, close enough to go for a nice walk, drive into town, drive to a new beach daily and check out so many areas outside of glen arbor. We took plenty of beach trips but all of the beach chairs were not usable so had to purchase our own. Overall great house and location for a family on the go!

Nice Homestead Property

We had a great time, overall. Accessible place. Roomy. Minor glitches: BBQ ran out of fuel and badly needed cleaning. Temperature hard to control with programmable thermostats. Could use some extra blankets in the bedrooms for cold weather.

Great Place to Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this cute little lodge in the woods. It was so peaceful - we loved looking out in the morning and seeing deer. We actually didn't know what we were getting because we got moved to this property instead of our original rental and it was even better than we could have imagined. Comfy beds, lots of space to spread out, a fantastic kitchen, lovely views...I could go on and on.
