The house was just as expected and a cozy place for two of us. We enjoyed the fireplace and found everything stocked that we needed. It was convenient to be able to hike right from the House.

BEWARE. NO HOMESTEAD AMENITIES LIKE THE POOLS.
Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time staying in the cottage in the summer. We were not aware that our homeowner didn’t enroll his property in the Homestead amenities. Without these amenities the accommodation is a disappointment. Apparently this fact is mentioned once in small print on the Up North site. No further mention on the Five pages of rules and regulations that “welcome” you to the property. Our phone complaint fell on deaf ears and neither management or the owner offered any compensation for the lack of clarity.

Review of South Village 7 condo
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall enjoyed our stay. Decor was updated and location was convenient. Could improve upon the cleanliness of sheets and towels. We noted some stains on towels and sheets on the sofa bed were dirty as they looked as if they were not washed or changed from previous stay. This condo is best for only 2 adults. Sofa bed not very comfortable, and outside lights shine directly into family room. Outside lights cannot be tunred off if guest is sleeping on sofa bed.

Peaceful
Enjoyed reading on the screened porch. The condo was beautifully updated and sparkling clean. The wooded lot was lovely. The indoors was a bit dim due to the trees, and I was afraid to raise the wide blinds for fear of breaking them, so some instructions on them would be useful. Other than that, a wonderful spot to stay!

Nature’s peace and quiet.
Condo was perfect for me. For those of us new to the facilities and the area, it would have been helpful to have a heads up regarding reasonably nearby gas stations. Both Glen Arbor and Empire’s were closed down. Visitors should have an idea of driving distance to nearby options. Further, it stated somewhere that there were “six steps” up to S7. There are actually many more and the wooden walks were slick with ice the day I arrived. That was scary! I would have been happy to spread ice melt, had it been there. My sister was there for two nights and enjoyed it.

Dark, dank, and lots of stairs.
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Description of South Village 5 is inaccurate. There are fully 21 steps (not almost 10) from the parking lot to the front door. Not fun even if you're able bodied when hauling luggage. Impossible for anyone with mobility issues. Being in the woods means it's dark and buggy. The screened porch looks appealing until you see it's full of spider webs. Summer time in Michigan is humid, and the A/C was unable to keep up with dampness. Inside, the condo was clean, washer/dryer looked new and worked great, but dry clothes soon felt damp in the humid air. Dishwasher worked well but many of the plates and bowls provided were cracked. Plenty of towels and the bedding was clean and bed was comfortable. No manual or instructions were provided for the air conditioning unit or the TV. We managed to get both to work after a fashion, but only got CNN on TV, and never were sure if the A/C was set properly. There was an outdoor bar/restaurant a short walk from the unit and the food was okay (hamburgs, sandwiches,etc.) There is no place to park anywhere near the beach, so you have to drive to Glen Haven or Empire to access the lake. I did not bother to contact Up North Vacations about the lack of instructions for things, so don't know if they would have provided them while we were there. Can't recommend this place and wouldn't rent it again.

August stay in Glen Arbor
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There was blood stain on the comforter.Also we were bombarded by black flies. even though this was that time of year for black flies it was ridiculous how many flies we had to deal with. After complaining we were told there was not anything that could be done. At the very LEAST a fly swatter should have been provided which it was NOT!!! It was so bad we even considered leaving early but decided against it since the whole thing cost us a lot of money

I was pleasantly surprised to find everything there as far as dish soap, paper towel, etc. I thought I would have to bring items that was listed in the paperwork that was sent but maybe if you were staying a week that would apply. really enjoyed working with the visit up north people everyone I talked to was friendly and helpful. Will be renting again soon. The condo was just perfect!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great vacation at a cute and well appointed condo in the woods. Glen Arbor is s great location close to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Traverse City, Leland, and Suttons Bay. The Homestead is on Crystal River and Lake Michigan with plenty of activities anytime of the year. Hiking, kayaking, or skiing. The Village has their own entertainment with different places to grab a bite or a beverage. You can also go into town and get a great burger at Art’s Tavern, Bone’s for a great salad, fish, or steak, or Cherry Republic for a casual meal. We highly recommend this rental for a great “Up North” getaway!
