About this property

FABULOUS, NEWLY REMODELED! 3 bd, 2 bath condo-Lake Michigan-Homestead-Glen Arbor

Enjoy gorgeous water views and all of the amazing scenes that surround Lake Michigan from this freshly updated, spacious 3rd Floor condo with two bedrooms plus a nice, private upstairs loft-suite (3rd bedroom) located on Lake Michigan inside the Homestead Resort property on M-22 in Glen Arbor, MI (Sleeps 6). This condo was just updated with brand new vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint, as well as a brand new beautiful kitchen (May 2021). The updated kitchen includes new white cabinets with soft close drawers, new quartz countertops, new glass backsplash, a new sink with updated faucet, and all new stainless steel appliances. Very private location, lake and river view, gated parking by the beach, and beautiful sunsets over the lake.

Minimum 7 night stay July to mid-August: Sunday to Sunday. Otherwise, minimum 2 night stay any nights.

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 beach, 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.

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.

In the summer you can 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.

Large heated and air conditioned condo with smart-tv, cable access, internet access (Wifi) and vaulted ceilings throughout. This 3rd floor condo has a million dollar view. You will enjoy spectacular evening sunsets over Lake Michigan.

The condo has one full bath on the main floor with a newly re-glazed shower/tub combo and new hardware as well as a brand new quartz countertop on the vanity, and one full bath with a stand-up tile shower in the semi--private upstairs loft-suite. The updated kitchen is complete with dishes, silverware, basic cooking utensils, glasses, coffee pot, new pots/pans, new microwave, new stove, refrigerator, and new dishwasher. Large kitchen table will seat up to 6 people.

There is a luxurious queen size bed in the bedroom off of the living room, a set of twin beds in the second bedroom, and another queen bed in the large upstairs loft-suite. All of the beds in this condo just received brand new, super comfy mattress toppers and new pillows.

This privately owned unit is nestled on the water in a discreetly gated property. No public check in required. The unit is on the top floor of the building, there is no elevator, and it 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. In the summer, 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 restaurants, golf (ski hill in the winter), spa, salon, and the shops in the Village.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This condo worked well for "Camp Nana & Papa" for 3 nights with 3 of our grandchildren. 3 BR & 2 baths. I love the deck. We had fun floating the river, swimming in Lake MI & riding our bikes. We could have used 3 better bath towels, an extra dish towel, newer queen beds. We ate 7 dinners in & found the kitchen well stocked. Our last 3 days we had our son's younger family & the condo accommodated the 6 of us well. There's nothing like Sleeping Bear Dunes!

We loved our stay at this condo. The condo was clean, in a nice community, and the views can't be beat. The location had easy access to town and surrounding areas. We loved the state park, kayaking the crystal river, and sandwich shops. We hope to come back again one day, our family loved this vacation! The unit was just right for us and our needs.

This is an absolutely beautiful property with an incredible west-facing view!! The sunsets from the balcony, which overlooks the Crystal River and Lake Michigan, were incredible. The Host was very kind and communicative, and the condo was very clean and well equipped for our family to have a wonderful 10-day stay. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a lovely home from which to enjoy Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Glen Arbor area!

The views from the balcony are worth every penny! Just a short walk to the Crystal River and Lake Michigan beachfront, which was fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay. Karen was a most excellent host. My only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer.

Great view, great stay, would definitely go back

Condo was lovely, nice and clean with an absolutely incredible view. Can see the sand dunes and the manitou islands from the back patio, just a 2 min walk from the beach. Honestly, the place looked even better than the photos in the listing, very modern. Check in was painless, zero complaints about the whole experience.

Good Stay

Had a nice stay. Not related to the room itself, the flies are NO JOKE this time of year (June 2024). Bring bug spray. One helpful thing to know when booking if laundry ability is important to you, you will need quarters as this facility has laundry but only as coin-op.

Response from VrboOwner on Jul 8, 2024
Thanks, Kristen! We are so glad you enjoyed our condo! Unfortunately, there isn't much we can do when the Mayflies arrive to the shores of Lake Michigan. Thank you for understanding! Regarding laundry facilities, we state on our VRBO Listing about the coin operated washer/dryer in the building. And we also remind you to bring quarters when we send you the Welcome Packet before your Check-in. It's always important for us to prep our guests! Thank you for the nice review!
