Great home base for a dunes vacation

Had a great family vacation. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Surfaces were clean, deep cleaning could be better. Location was great. Fun days of hiking with restful evenings on the property’s perfect deck.

You won’t want to leave!

Husband, two daughters and I stayed here for the Sleeping Bear Dunes marathon and it was close and convenient for that purpose. The condo was pristine with a million dollar view and well stocked with everything you could need to enjoy your stay. Thank you, Meg! I look forward to a longer visit in the future!

Condo in Homestead

Good condo in Homestead village. A bit dated, as mentioned in other reviews, but overall a good place to stay with a great view. Very comfortable for 2 couples as each "suite" is on opposite sides of the unit, providing good privacy. A bit tricky finding your way to the beach. Loved the location as we were doing a color tour and wanted something outside of Traverse City (too busy). This place is 10 minutes from Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear Dunes and 30 minutes from Fishtown and Sutton's Bay.

The view is absolutely amazing!!!! Communication was quick and easy, super nice. It was so nice to not have to worry about a long checklist upon leaving; just leave! We could have used a few more bowls for our family of 5 (I think there were 3), but seriously with the view I didn’t even care.

Peaceful paradise

Very nice layout and view was amazing! Wish some of the tree branches could be trimmed to enjoy it fully.. amenities were adequate, beds were just ok, one was too firm. Recommend a real toaster not the toaster/oven and a Keurig coffee maker or something easier.. Overall we had a wonderful time, great atmosphere and water pressure in shower was fantastic! Best location in Glen Arbor.. highly recommend you won’t be disappointed

What a view!

Can't beat the view looking west from the deck. Sunsets were a-maz-ing!! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, plenty of room at the dining room table for Yahtzee and Uno for four. We never felt crowded in this condo. The path that - eventually - led to the beach was a monster! There is a VERY steep grade. Anyone with any difficulty walking or who is not in "the best of shape" will not be able to walk it (or will, at best, have great difficulty), so be prepared to find your beach-time elsewhere. Also, the toilet bowls were, well, small. Men may find it...uncomfortable...trying to sit down. (Was that tactful enough?) Otherwise, a fine time was had by all.

Beautiful setting/needs updating

Beautiful property but a little confusing to find the condo within Homestead. Very close to Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear Dunes. Traverse City is 30 min drive away. Older condo that could use some updates. Difficult to navigate to condo at night with the exterior stairs and minimal lighting on roads. Great view though.

Relaxing and comfortable stay with amazing views

We enjoyed our stay at this condo, celebrating my parents birthdays . 2 bedroom suites were spacious, giving total privacy for 2 couples. Having washer and dryer was a bonus if u need to refresh ur beach towels. Living room couch was very comfortable and we enjoyed big screen on smart TV at night. Each night it was a unique sunset show we observed from spacious deck. Condo had a nice fresh air breeze. Window covering modern and allows u to set it to complete blackout. Beach itself is the best in the whole area, clean calm water, soft sand, great vistas surrounding Bay. One thing to note it’s a walk on a path back from the beach to condo-there is one area that a bit steep. For us it was good daily activity, since my parents were in good shape :)

We had a great week here. The sunset views from the living room and bedroom are beautiful. The beach is about 10 mins walk and is very quiet. The home was clean but dated . Would be nice to have a few more pots/pans/dishes.
