The house had everything we needed and tons of space for fun activities. I would certainly recommend this for anyone looking for a cool house to stay in a great location!

Beautiful home in Glen Arbor
This large home l all 14 of us well! This is our 9th year as a family coming up here and we love it! The house is 1.14 miles from Glen Arbor but an easy bike ride. We love the Cherry Republic and there is a park with pickle ball, tennis, basketball hoops and playground. The house has a well stocked pantry and spice cabinet. Our family cooks for the large group every night and there are plenty of pots, pans, 2 crock pots, an instapot and plates/silverware. The bathrooms have plenty of toilet paper, hand soap at the sinks and towels as well as a few beach towels. We enjoyed the large hot tub on the deck as well as the high end 5 burner grill for cook outs. James left us quarters for the hockey game in the weight room and the boys were able to work out a couple of times with the universal gym and free weights. Inside the garage there are 6 beach chairs to use as well as a ping pong table, air hockey table and fussball table. Our boys enjoyed the basketball hoop in the driveway and the owner also left a brand new basketball. Great house in a perfect location that accommodates our large group very well!

Annual Family/Friend Glen Arbor Trip
The house was a perfect fit for our large group. We liked having the ability to spread out and the house was extremely quiet which was a plus with a large group. The location was great, quick bike ride to town or a short walk. There were plenty of things to keep our teenagers/young adults entertained.

Perfect Family Vacation
James was great to communicate with. Property was beautiful, unique, comfortable, expansive, and private with plenty of room for our 3 generational family with lots to do for everyone. It also was a perfect base for exploring all the area had to offer: hiking, biking, golfing, wine tasting, shopping, beaches, kayaking, and much more! It was a fantastic vacation experience!

Wonderful experience
Smitty's was perfect. Huge house with everything a big group needs. Kid friendly, I would say (we had a 2 and a 9 with us). Walking distance to downtown area (1 mile) and short drive to dunes, beaches, boat rentals, etc etc. Couldn't be happier.

Great Family Getaway Spot
Absolutely loved this property! We had an extended family of twelve people aged 11-75 who comfortably slept, ate, and played together here for a week. Property is a mile away from Glen Arbor and we walked there more than once. We all enjoyed the hot tub, ping pong table, basketball goal and fire pit. The grounds are beautiful and we were able to use some of the vegetables in the garden and wild berries from the woods. Would definitely book here again!

5 days in glen arbor
We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous house full of so many amenities. Excellent location for the 13 people in our party 16-58 y old. We enjoyed all the multiple spaces, including hot tub, four seasons room, basketball, work out area and fire pit. Everyone was able to have their privacy and there was no issue with bathrooms. The house was very well stocked.
This area has so much to do, we had bikes and kayaks, enjoyed beaches, boating on the lake and the small towns including traverse city. Will definitely return.

Property is more sprawling than pictures portray.very quiet wooded area and 1 mile from Glen Arbor. Building is multiple sections, perfect for sleeping children from multiple families. Owner was very responsive. Kitchen is more than amply stocked. Lots to do: grill, hot tub, fire pit, walk in woods, biking to Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor town

The 50th wedding anniversary trip of our dreams.
We gathered our adult kids and grandkids (totaling 14) to join us for a week together. We hiked, kayaked, shopped, ate ice cream, and played pickleball. Inside the grandkids were thrilled with the game room and we loved that it was separate from the room we adults enjoyed. The screened in porch is where we spent most of our time. We cooked our meals in the spacious kitchen. The walk to Glen Arbor was easy. And we LOVED all the flowers on the property - gorgeous. The part of the house we loved the most is that it is so spread out! It gave everyone the space they needed, and yet, we were all together.

Beautiful Home in Amazing Surroundings
My whole family of 13 stayed at Smitty's for a week this summer and we had an amazing time. The house is even better than the pictures (both inside and out). The gardens are beautiful and perfectly maintained, and completely surround the house.
You can tell the owners love this huge house as well. There is a beautiful, new kitchen, several updated bathrooms, and the 2 lofts are unique and fun. We had some bad weather, but being "stuck" here was the best possible place to be. The kids had fun in the rec room and hot tub, while the adults loved hanging out on the enclosed porch gazing at the gardens.
Finally the house is sprawling and has several "living areas" for people to gather and hang out in. This was particularly nice as one group could play music and games in one area and not be heard by the rest of the people sleeping in the house.

An awesome stay and a great host!
8 friends and I stayed at Smittys GA “Right in The Middle of It All” and the home exceeded expectations. James (our host) was very communicative before, during and after the stay. Check-in was super simple and the home was exceptionally clean. The pictures do not give the home justice. The home is quite large, and rooms are pretty separated. We joked that we could live in the home and never see each other! The home had everything you need for a stay to include all kitchen items, linens and even cooking spices. Washer and dryers (2 sets) made those accidental stains go away (and provided dry cloths for the trip back). The game room (I guess you could say 2 game rooms) provided lots of entertainment and the large hot tub made the end of day relaxing easy. 2 living rooms and a large screened outside sitting room resulted in relaxing morning coffee and afternoon naps. James took care of us and addressed any/all issues (example was day 1 the hot tub was not coming up to temp fully. It was late when it was discovered so James had the technician out the next day to get it fixed). James even informed me he added “hot tub checks” to his pre-stay checklist. Glenn Arbor isn’t a heavy populated place, so you are rewarded with a quiet environment with short drives to local amenities. I’d definitely stay again!

Reclusive Spot Near Town
We found Smittys GA a very relaxing and accommodating place to stay. Though we were only a few minutes from Glen Arbor, Lake Michigan, & Big Glen Lake, we felt we were in a retreat deep in the woods. I originally wanted something on the water, but had absolutely no regrets with this rental. The property is as pictured in the photos, but the pictures cannot portray the openness of the rooms and the serenity of the place. There are three distinct 'living' spaces - five if you include the front and back decks. My husbands favorite spot was the back deck with its comfortable seating and view of the garden and woods. He wished he had another week to enjoy the peace. Everyone enjoyed conversing around the fire pit in the evening. There were places to gather and places to retreat. The game room and basketball court kept the younger members of our party busy. If you are looking for a private spot to gather with your family, but want to be close to everything, then this is the place for you.

First time stay in Glen Arbor for wedding
We had a wonderful first stay in Glen Arbor with a large group including young kids! The property was beautiful, well maintained, and very spacious!
The game-room in the garage, private secluded driveway area, and backyard wooded area were especially amazing for our kids. Variety of indoor and outdoor toys and activities which is rare in rentals and was so appreciated.
The suite above the garage was perfect for our extended family to have privacy and extra space. The whirlpool was very clean and great size. We all had a nice dip!
Huge deck and peaceful screened in sitting area.
The whole house was very well stocked. Bathrooms had plenty of towels (note: bring soap, shampoo). Kitchen was well-stocked with appliances, dishes, silverware, etc. Washer/Dryer were a good brand, soap and dryer sheets were generously included, and both worked well.
The house is very large and spread out. It was extremely nice to have two living/family room area spaces for when the kids were asleep. The only recommendations or preferences would've been: 1. To have the two loft areas more closed off with a door to drown out sound but our kids slept well with noise machines on; 2. Have a keypad door vs keys for quicker/easier entry but that's personal preference.
Owner was very communicative and helpful! Just a short drive down the road to the downtown area, great location and quiet. Would definitely stay again!

James was always very quick to respond and answer any questions we had while staying. Listing tells you everything you need to know about the property, there were no surprises! The property has so many cool features and had room for all of our 13 quests to have their own spaces. The location can’t be beat, we will definitely be back!

オーナー : James Smith
My wife and I are were both born in Detroit and grew up in the area with Denice graduating from Wayne State and myself from Ferris State . We met early in 1996, were married in may of 1997, sold our homes, left our jobs, got new jobs, combined two families, bought this home and moved up here to start one new life together in August of 1997. Thinking back it makes us tired just to tell the story

Go out on the deck at midnight on a clear summer night and look up - you will begin to understand.
この宿泊施設の特徴
I am allowed 2000 characters to explain why and its probably not enough. Maybe it was the tree frog stuck to the glass of our front door during a warm summer rain. Maybe it was the distant howling of coyotes deep in the woods late at night or then again maybe it was the cement trucks buried in the mud up to their fenders a hundred yards into a forest (our front yard) during construction. Or maybe it was just the countless other construction projects done for others or the days, weeks and years of us working out of town to make this all possible. In the end it simply comes down to the land, the magnificent water that abounds in the area, the unpredictable climate and what we have gone through to tame this land and build a home that provides us constant comfort in an unpredictable changing climate. We have slowly over 15 years time, carved our homestead out of what, after a storm has knocked out power for few days, sometimes seems like pure wilderness. This is such a beautiful place but when a late November windstorm roars in from the West, and the leafless trees are swaying 10 feet at the tops or a mid-winter snowstorm from the North drifts 3 feet of snow on the deck the day before the temperature plummets to zero, we are reminded that our presence at our quiet little place in the woods is up to the good graces of mother nature. And that's okay we prefer it that way.
