Nice condo

This condo was comfortable for 2 couples and was as described in the listing. We enjoyed having the beach accessible for walks and a deck for stargazing. A clogged bathroom sink was the only disappointment.

Great location!

Great unit with two kings in a wonderful location. For summer guests - be aware there is no AC. In the fall it made no difference.

Beautiful Place!

This condo is beautifully appointed and very comfortable! The beds and bedding were super comfortable as well. The beach chairs were also a huge help. The kitchen is well-stocked and even included a mixer. The views are simply spectacular from the deck and the proximity to the private beach is unbeatable. We will definitely be back!

Perfection!

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful condo and would happily have stayed longer if we had the time. The location is terrific, with direct access to the beach and lake, and an easy 3 minute drive into Glen Arbor. We loved the views out to the Manitou islands from the unit. It was very cosy and comfortable for 4 of us during our stay.

Post Labor Day Stay

My husband and I stayed at this cute condo with an amazing view of Lake Michigan, Sleeping Bear Bay for two nights in early September. Aside from the fruit fly invasion (apparently common this time of year in northern Michigan) we loved the space! We’ve been coming to Glen Arbor for years and loved being so close to town. The South Beach condos had amazing grounds including access to a beautiful private beach, partial sunset view from the balcony, amazing wooded Crystal River walk and we were able to check in almost an hour early. We will definitely stay again in the future if available.

Nice property but filthy carpeting

The views are spectacular, but the carpet was absolutely filthy. It looked likes previous tenants walked in mud and tracked it in, there were numerous stains in all of the rooms. This led us to question the level of cleanliness in the entire condo.

Relaxing with a beautiful view

Very nice condo within the Homestead. Wish we could have stayed longer. Never received check-out instructions so had to call to ask. Told us to start the laundry so if cleaning crew doesn't come in for a day or so, there will be wet laundry still in the machine. Also did not ask us to take out the trash.

Glen Arbor Condo

We had a nice stay, even though the weather was not always ideal. It's a great location close to the beach and overlooking the water. Our condo was nice, and it had all and more than we needed. My note is that their were spots on the outside of the condo where it appeared run down. The most prominent being that there were several areas missing siding. To be fair, there was a construction crew working here and there while we stayed, but I didn't see them working on those areas. We also found two stray nails on the walkway that connected to the walk to the beach. It just got the sense that the area had seen better days. We talked to one resident who lives their long-term, and she seemed a little miffed that, as renters, the beach wasn't explained to us (we used her beach umbrella without realizing it was private). It was good to visit. I expect this is a beautiful stay deeper into the summer.

Dirty, cluttered, and not as pictured

We arrived past check in time to a dirty condo (hair in showers, debris and sand on floor, dirties not removed) and to clutter everywhere (blankets heaped on the floor in the closets, fake plants everywhere, excessive decor). The vacuum was broken and the cleaning crew didn’t have any spare to help get the place in shape nor did they offer to further “clean” our unit. The master bedroom had PAPER blinds that did not hold up with the clips they had, the master bedroom’s fan clicked as it circulated (mind you these units have no air) so sleeping proved difficult. The carpet was stained throughout the entire unit, the WiFi went out multiple times per day forcing us to use our hotspots, the kitchen had no storage and every drawer was full to the brim, the showers and sinks were clogged in both bathrooms and the tub would fill 6 inches while you showered, lamp shades were broken or crooked, the photo above the fireplace had no reinforcement so it kept flapping in the wind, the couch had stains…. The only plus side was they had a commercial washer and dryer, the unit had a great cross breeze, and it had a great view. We’ve been coming to this area for the past 30 years and this was by far our most outdated, unkempt rental.
