Awesome House near the Beach

We absolutely loved staying at this fabulous house with the most perfect location, a short walk to the beautiful private beach and downtown Glen Arbor. The bedrooms and bathrooms and well stocked kitchen accommodated our large extended family easily. We would love to stay at this house again!! l

This house was amazing and had plenty of room for all of us. Bathrooms galore, and a teeny walk to the beautiful beach. Town was in walking distance and we enjoyed shopping and dining.Highly recommend!!!

So much room!

With 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 kitchens and 2 living rooms, there was so much room for our 3-generation family to be together or have quiet time. It’s a beautiful location walkable to town or beach (even in December).

Friend’s wedding get away

We stayed here for a friend’s wedding in Glen Arbor. We really enjoyed the town, the Dunes but most importantly the house! The time we were able to spend with friends because of this house were the best times of the weekend.

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is perfect!! Steps away from the lake and a very short walk to town. Perfect for our large family gathering. Would have really enjoyed outdoor chairs for the deck, as it was a beautiful weekend.

Location, location, location

Honestly you cannot beat the location and it fits a larger group. I love the beach shared only with neighbors. Home could use some updates as it is a bit dated.

wonderful time.

we have stayed at this house. I believe four times now so obviously we’re very happy with it. It’s close to everything Lake, Michigan, and the walk to Glen. Arbor is only a few minutes walk. more pricey than it was last time we stayed so I’m not sure if we’ll be back but we did love the place.

Met His Parents

Enjoyed this home in advance of Labor Day 2019. We were joined by our daughter's domestic partner's parents - who came from Brazil! They were awestruck by both the lake and the home. Home was very clean, nicely furnished and the kitchen had everything we needed. Located on a quiet street a very short stroll from the beach.

Great house for large group

We were 6 couple and all had our own bedrooms with four full baths. Table was large enough to accommodate any meals and lots of cards and dice games. Make sure to walk down to the water no matter what time of year you are staying. Luckily the house made up for the management company (Vacasa) who has terrible customer service. Was a much better stay when LVR was managing it.

Walk to beach and town

House accommodates many people and walking distance to everything. Well kept and many extras. Disappointed that listing says on Lake Michigan because it’s not. Really not much view either and that’s what I thought we were getting based on the listing.

A perfect place for our family to gather and unwind

I’ve been vacationing in Glen Arbor for over 30 years. This is probably one of our best times simply because the location was perfect. We have young adult children and we all had great ways to enjoy the trip, sometimes as a whole group, or as a couple or alone. In other words, everyone made this trip what they wanted. We all spent time enjoying the beach and kayaking. Some of us biked the Heritage Trail (practically across the street), we spent a lot of time reading, shopping in town and of course eating too much with all the beautiful restaurants and treats within walking distance. The price was on the high end for us and it looks like it’s going up. So I don’t know if we’ll be able to make it back. But that’s the beauty of renting - we have the joy of trying new spaces and locations!

Beautiful lake side stay

This was a short summer family vacation around Labor Day. Thé location is pristine, very calm and quiet. Perfect getaway for R&R. Glen arbor town is easily accessible and has everything you need including a great park with activities for kids, tennis and pickle ball. The house is spacious and well furnished. Only issue was the musky smell, and perhaps hasn’t been properly cleaned in a while. Lots of dusty rugs, sand, dirt everywhere, and the soft lighting makes for some dark gloomy spots throughout the house. The water pressure in the bathrooms is unsteady so sometime difficult to shower when it’s just a trickle. There were a lot of flies / fruit flies in the kitchen area. Overall, I’d go back. Perhaps better prepared for next visit and with reset expectations. The location is unbeatable. For longer stays though, having a cleaner house would be super helpful! We were 10 people so had abundant space, privacy and fun activities. Lake Michigan is simply spectacular and a short 2 min walk from the house! Enjoy the beautiful sunrise and sunsets as well swimming in the refreshing cool waters!
