About this property

Fabulous Lake Michigan beachfront condo. Incredible views of Sleeping Bear Bay

Spectacular Lake Michigan views!! Right on the beach at The Homestead resort. Beautiful three bedroom, two full bath, air-conditioned condo with living room, study, balcony, and more. Fully equipped kitchen, TV, Wi-fi, and wet bar. The condo sleeps seven. Queen master suite, queen plus twin bed guest room, and a high-end queen size sleeper sofa in the study, which is the third bedroom.

We rent for a 7 night minimum; Saturday to Saturday, during July and August

Just minutes from Glen Arbor, we are part of the The Homestead resort. The Crystal River is across the parking area, although the beach is the main attraction. Swim, sunbathe, rent kayaks or paddle boards, go boating, biking, hiking, fishing, or climb the nearby Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes.

The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail offers biking, hiking, bird watching, cross country skiing, and more. Shop in Glen Arbor or make the drive to Leland, just twenty minutes away. Casual and fine dining abound in Leelanau county, along with wine tasting at the numerous vineyards. It's impossible to be bored!

Our condo is a third story, walk-up unit, with an amazing view of Sleeping Bear Bay. The view is worth the price and we've been told it's the best view on the beach. Enjoy star gazing in the evening, or watch freighters ply the straits between the Manitou Islands while sipping your morning coffee. Our location is family friendly, but we are not child proofed or equipped for small children.

We are between the Crystal River, and Lake Michigan, so it's just a few steps to tubing the river or sitting on the beach. We do not provide canoes, kayaks, beach club or pool access at the Homestead, beach chairs, beach towels, fishing gear, tubes, boats, or bikes. However, all of these items can be rented or purchased locally.

Piece of Paradise
We had a wonderful stay. The condo was extremely comfortable and very well stocked. Our party of 6 cooked all of our meals there and were impressed by how well the kitchen was outfitted. Most important, however, was the magnificent view of the lake. Just gorgeous! We will definitely plan to stay here again.

Great Layout and Location
We loved being on the beach overlooking the lake. To access the beach you do have to go around the building . The condo was clean and well stocked. Beach theme was nice. Plenty of room for 2 couples. Very nice place.

It was a very satisfying stay. The condo is well equipped and the view of the lake was nice. The 40 or so steps up to the condo were a bit taxing for us, an older couple, but otherwise, we enjoyed the stay.

Gorgeous View
Very clean condo, the view every morning/day/night worth it! Comfy beds. Great bathrooms. Loved sitting on balcony to watch eagles hunt for breakfast, relax and listen to waves. Felt like we were in our own little piece of heaven. Plenty to do in area. The Homestead resort was nice with fun trails to walk and Whisker with live music and fire pits to sit and relax around. Nice people around.
