A Perfect Up North Getaway!

We had a great stay at Ridgepoint! It was the perfect size for our family of 4. The property had everything we needed. We enjoyed meals both around the large island as well as on the outdoor patio. Located just outside of the Glen Arbor town, we were able to walk everywhere we needed including the park, grocery store, Crystal River Outfitters, River Club, the grocery store, and all the fun shops. The only "warning" I would have for future visitors is that the property uses well water which our kids did not care for at all. Thankfully, the IGA down the road had plenty of large jugs of water.

Amazing house, amazing location

We loved our stay at Cranberry Ridge. The house was new and easy to find. The location is perfect. It is a several block walk from downtown Glen Arbor restaurants and lake Michigan. The house is located near an entrance to the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail with a short bike ride to Glen Haven. We are so grateful that we were able to find a home that offered a 3 night stay and allowed us to bring our dog. We will definitely be back. Thanks again Debbie & Rich

Excellent property

Very clean and nicely decorated. The home had everything you need. Very comfortable. Short walk to down town, although there is a short distance without a sidewalk. The only thing I noticed was a slight odor in the bathroom from the well water. Overall a great place, I would rent again. Thanks for a great stay in Glen Arbor.

The best host and location

Our stay at Cranberry Ridge in Glen Arbor was wonderful. The house and location were perfect. Such easy access to everything (walk or drive), and excellent amenities (new, patios, fire pit, parking/access, etc.). The host was very attentive and kept us posted with a minor activity at the property. Thank you, John!

Cozy Cabin

My friend and I wanted to get away for the weekend to catch up, so we decided to go with this cabin. It was perfect for what we needed - super cozy, the beds were comfortable and clean. The only complaint I have as far as cleanliness was the amount of dog hair that was on the couch/living area. Otherwise it’s a great location right next to downtown! I would recommend.

Fantastic addition to Glen Arbor

The Cranberry Ridge cabins are absolutely gorgeous and the owners have thought of everything. The location can’t be beat either. I will say it got a bit cold in the winter so plan accordingly.

Great location for baby and dog friendly family :)

Our stay was phenomenal! We vacation in Glen Arbor every year and this time we picked a new rental. We were thrilled with our choice. Not only was the house clean and welcoming it was literally right next door to downtown. We have a 10 month on daughter so having the park be less than a 5 minute walk and the beach being a 10 minute walk was perfect! We also loved how dog friendly the home was. They had a leash, poop bags, and dog bowls to welcome Ginger. The host was also amazing with communication. We had a minor thing that needed to be fixed at the house and it was done within 1 day. We also stayed for 2 weeks and they had the cleaning company come by after 1 week to change the bedding/towels and freshen up the place. We truly appreciated it! Can’t wait to stay again next year :)

Great property, closer to lake than you first realize.

Accommodations were great and as advertised. Everything about the home looked new and well maintained. Owners even provided coffee, filters, creamer, extra pods to wash dishes and trash bags, along with some additional perks. Had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was getting another residence in order on the property, very friendly. Definitely a great place to stay and felt very comfortable.
