Photos of property make it look much nicer than it is. Furniture very worn and uncomfortable. Almost no water pressure in house, almost impossible to rinse off soap from shower. Listing says 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Actually only two bedrooms but has 3 baths.

Great Location

This cute, quiet, home is located within walking distance of downtown Glen Arbor. The home on the inside is clean and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. You should secure the dishwasher to the counter! Nice grill, but the patio/deck is dirty, full of spider webs, and bird droppings. It was obviously not cleaned before our arrival. I swept the deck for approximately 1/2 hour and gave up. So, we did not use it. The landscaping is overgrown and not attended to. There are all kinds of weeds growing through the bark mulch. We had a problem with the connectivity of the Wi-W it and contacted the management company. The Wi-Fi and password were not up to date on the check-in list. Here is the worst part.......Somebody entered the home, without our knowledge, and updated the Wi-Fi username and passcode on the refrigerator. They also left a note on the sofa table with the updated information. Very unacceptable!

Great location for many activities

We enjoyed our stay at Dunes Trail. It is centrally located to Glen Arbor business district but is secluded and comfortably nestled in the woods. It was as described on the website. Though it was not unhealthily dirty there were items that needed to be addressed, the fans were very dusty and night lights were filled with dead bugs. The decor was very pleasant , some of the living area furniture needs a good cleaning. The lighting inside leads a lot to be desired, it is very dark. Light bulbs in one bathroom needed to be replaced as they were all burned out. The front door screen was in b need of repair when we arrived and it seems to be inefficient for the position it is in. But, the price was reasonable, the areas we needed were as described. and the convenient location was great. Oh. the dishwasher is not secured in it's placement so please be aware of this!

Abysmal communication

Property is fine. Management is not. I Sent a question Saturday before my Sunday arrival- that I needed answered BEFORE I got there. Got answer, a stupid wrong answer, on Wednesday. Yep - 4 days to answer a question. Gad a problem with misleading entry instructions. By the time they answered, I'd figured it out. ALL communication is via text - no humans

Home Away From Home

This rental was everything my family could have wanted! Close to Glen Arbor, the playground, the beach - we could walk to it all. The property was very clean, plenty of space to spread out and relax either indoors or outdoors. Great backyard space that backs up to the woods - we saw deer, turkey and other animals during our stay. Even though it was on a busy road, with the trees and being set back from the road, it wasn't noticeable at all! We're excited to come back next year.

Very nice cozy little house. In a great location to walk or drive to anything. And 2 blocks from the beach. Had good distance from neighbors. But it is off of M22 so during height of season it could get noisy with traffic. Most everything was updated and modern. Washer and dryer in unit was very nice to have. Needs black out curtains in all rooms because at night with the lights on you can see inside. Plus kitchen window and small bedroom window needs blind or curtains added. Please get rid of area rugs as they keep in dirt and germs. Also, homeowner was wonderful in resolving an issue we had. Very understanding. We will be back there in the spring.
