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.

Perfect location, comfortable accommodations!

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: The kitchen was well-equipped to prepare meals for 10 and space for people to help or watch. 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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

Great place for our ladies getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: This house is tucked away within the Homestead Resort, just beautiful. Lots of room and a kitchen with everything. The refrigerator/freezer is huge!! We walked on the trails in the snow and ever walked on lake Michigan with frozen waves. Tons of wineries around - Lake Leeland and Glen Arbor. Tons to do anytime of year.

Short ski trip

Beautiful property and nicely maintained, but problems with heat. The only complaint is that many of the Nest thermostats went down to 55 degrees after two hours making it unbearably cold at times in a very cold January

Great Rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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 rented the house for a girls weekend in January/February. The house fit the bill! It had everything we needed (except wash clothes - not one in the house lol). It had all all of the pans, kitchen appliances, utensils etc we could have needed. Comfy furniture and beautiful views out tons of windows. Our group thought the beds were comfortable and the water pressure was great. The only issue we had was a terrible squeak from a register vent fan that kept some of us up the first night but we shut it off after a call to the office the next morning and no noise after. It had a great location and not too far from wine tasting, places to eat and site seeing places that were on our list. We appreciated the large table for playing games and plenty of seating for when we wanted to just lounge and visit. We would rent the house again in a heartbeat!

The home was beautiful but the AC units can’t support it …very warm in the 2nd an 3rd bedrooms

See above. Also the half bath main floor had a broken handle that you had to play with ever time

Wonderful

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time in this beautiful place. The large and many windows provided amazing views. Everything was top notch. High quality cooking devices, excellent coffee pot, huge refrigerator & freezer, and other amenities. The large living room provided ample room for our family and friends to gather together. The road was packed snow and my van could not get up the hill. Luckily our Son-in-law's 4 wheel drive truck made it up the hill no problem.
