About this property

Open: July 20-23; 26; Aug 20-23; 27-30

Perfect for two, sleeps 4, this South Village villa is everything ‘up north’ should be - Our condo is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located on the property of the Homestead Resort. This means you are just minutes from the beach, bike trail, groomed hiking and ski trails, and the ski village. Just down the road is Glen Arbor, Glen Lakes and the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Glen Arbor offers resort shopping and a choice of delightful restaurants. Spend an afternoon boating on Glen Lake or kayaking the Crystal River. A trip up north wouldn't be complete without the challenge of climbing the Sleeping Bear Dunes or a visit to 'fishtown,' Leland. The new Heritage trail is perfect for a bike ride. From our villa you are just a scenic drive to all the other Leelanau Peninsula treasures- orchards, vineyards, golf courses, historic sites, casino, breweries and wineries.
Come, Be Our Guests. Tucked in the northwoods, renters comment on how private, clean, and contemporary our villa is. Easy 3-step entry welcomes you to relax in the great north woods. Start the morning with the birds and a cup of coffee on our wooden deck. After a walk through the woods, a day at the beach, a game of golf, or a drive around the peninsula visiting wineries, return to our air conditioned villa for an evening of relaxation. Visiting in the cooler months? Settle down to a fire in the fireplace and a good movie on the DVD player. Ready for bed, tuck yourself into comfort in our king-size sleigh bed and dream about returning.
Located between the reception center and the ski village of the property of the Homestead Resort, our villa is a short walk to Lake Michigan, the entrance to the Bay View trail, Cavanaugh's deli and Nonnie's restaurant.

Glen Arbor: Just 40 minutes west of Traverse City is the quaint town of Glen Arbor. Nestled on the shores of Lake Michigan, it's a destination spot in all seasons. Summer attracts Glen Lake & Lake Michigan boaters, hikers, dune climbers, cyclists and sun worshipers. The restaurants are open late luring you in with their fare. Some even have live nightly entertainment. The shop doors are open enticing you to buy everything from Cherry wine to carved cherry wood tables. Plan accordingly and you can catch an art, polka, or jazz festival. Fall brings a quietness to the town. It's a perfect time to take a color tour through the scenic hills, catch a game of golf, or walk through any number of groomed trails. Perhaps you'll spot a deer, porcupine, red fox, or raccoon. We have. Winter fun begins on the down-hill slopes or cross-country trails. When spring arrives, everyone celebrates by hunting Morrell mushrooms and spotting Trillium as they poke through the winter leaves. Come, be our guests.

Area Attractions: Discover all of the Leelanau Peninsula treasures with us. Be awed by the Sleeping Bear Dunes or Lake Michigan or marvel at the beauty of a wildflower growing along one of the many groomed hiking trails. Tucked throughout the peninsula are vineyards, wineries, golf courses, lakes and scenic lookouts. For the nostalgic is Leland, a turn-of-the century fish town still practicing its trade but expanded to welcome inquisitive visitors. Empire too boasts a maritime museum depicting the wrath and splendor of Lake Michigan travel. Why you can even find a home-made cheese shop and family drive-in theater. For the modern sophisticate is Traverse City, just east on M-72. North of TC is the casino at Peshawbeston. To the south is fine arts school at Interlochen which hosts local and international artists throughout the year. No matter where you go in the area, there is something to do and something to see. So come, be our guest and experience all that 'Up North' was meant to be.

Hidden Gem
This beautiful little spot is the perfect place to enjoy all that the Homestead and the greater Glen Arbor area have to offer! Steps from the reception center pool and the “village” of shops/restaurant at the Homestead - everything is within reach. Lovely decor, clean and updated bath. A great getaway!!

Very nice villa
The villa was very nice and clean, bed was very comfortable, we loved everything about the place except the resort it was in Most of the restaurants and shops were rather closed or off limits to us And their was no access to the beach unless you walked from the villa witch was a pretty long walk especially for me and my wife we are almost 60 We had to drive to a public beach witch wasn’t bad just wish we could have had easier access to the beach we were staying at Other than that everything else was perfect Glen Arbor is an awesome little town we really enjoyed going their for lunch and dinner and could drive right up to the beach!!!

Perfect size for 2 in a great location
Condo is in a great location, just steps to parking, clean, updated and the perfect size for 2 people. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking most meals. The wood burning fireplace with access to free wood was appreciated. After a long day of traveling we were ready to check in, relax and cook up dinner. It makes sense to keep the temperature down when not in use, but arriving to a 55* condo felt a bit unwelcoming. We sat around in our winter coats for almost 2 hours while it came up to temp. It would have been nice if the condo was “ready” for us or if this had at least been communicated to us prior to arrival.

Small, but Cozy
The condo was very clean and organized! We had a wonderful stay and the check-in/check-out process was very easy. The only thing that was unclear was that the amenities for the condo listed a hot tub, but there was not one there.

Clean, updated condo
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The condo was very clean and updated, compared to some others we have stayed in. The air conditioner was a huge bonus! This next part is not a reflection of the owner or the listing, just my opinion...the size is accurate in the listing, but personally, it was too small for our family. Since our kids are both under 10 I thought it would be fine, but it was a tight fit and the pull out bed is quite uncomfortable, even for kids. If it were just my husband and I, we would 100% rent again, but probably not when we have our kids with us.

Great place!
We had a wonderful week here. My husband and I had our 11 year old who slept on the fold out sofa. The condo is a great location, a good layout, and updated. Only comments were that you don’t have access to the pool or golf at The Homestead. The beach is a 15 minute walk- there is no parking or bathrooms at the beach.

Excellent pre-check-in infomation. Clean, cozy, and well appointed condominum with easy access. It does have some steps to the front door but not many and it was very close to the parking area. The location for exploration of the Leelanau peninsula was perfect.
