Wilderness 15 is the perfect place to go with friends or your family of any age kids. With easy access to the beach of Lake Michigan, days on the beach, walks, sunsets and fires are just steps away.

We were very comfortable and the condo met all our needs. We loved being on the ground floor and walking down to the beach. The sunsets were breathtaking. We were able to get some hiking in and visit surrounding towns when it was rainy. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your very comfortable condo.

We had a wonderful time at Wendy’s property. Everything was as advertised. The location was amazing! My kids loved being able to walk right on to the beach every morning and evening. The condo was very close to the restaurants of Glen Arbor and hiking trails of Sleeping Bear Dunes.

I returned to this area after 25 years to the same refreshing water, quality condo, fresh air and cherries, of course! It was the first time I brought my family. Our 12 year old daughter and nine-year-old twin boys fell in love with it as did my husband. So we will be returning. Our host was actually up in the area and was able to help us out with a few things. She was so wonderful!

Great condo for smaller families or couples

Great condo for smaller families or couples

Great location with easy access to the beach. In general, we have enjoyed the proximity of Homestead condos to Glen Arbor and many other things we enjoy for 25+ years. This condo has a nice, open kitchen and living area with great views and a good size deck we enjoyed. The decks/balconies in some of the other areas of condos at the Homestead are quite small, so this was a real plus. Wilderness condos also have access to fire pits on the beach which we enjoyed. Bedrooms were comfortable with a nice king bed in one and twin beds in the other. The weather got a little hot for part of our stay and the fans that were provided did a great job keeping the condo comfortable. The Wifi was fast/strong and the kitchen had everything we needed. We didn't have any issues and the one time we contacted Wendy she was very responsive and friendly. We would definitely come back to this condo in the future!

This location is really wonderful, literally steps away from beach.

This location is really wonderful, literally steps away from beach.

Our timing was pretty good. We arrived a few days before Memorial weekend. To start, it was a quiet town and we enjoyed the beach practically all to ourselves. Then Friday brought in the crowds. However, in our little peace of heaven, you hardly knew until you went into the business district. Glen Arbor (and nearby towns) has so many things offer. Especially if you love nature. Would definitely visit again! Our family was made up of parents and two teenage girls. The fit was just right.

Wonderful Vacation Haven

Wonderful Vacation Haven

Wendy is a wonderful host and obviously takes great pride in the maintenance of her family vacation spot. The condo is well-stocked and has everything one would need for a short stay. It is comfortable, clean and the outside porch area is a great place to chill and enjoy the lake view and most importantly, the magical sunset. I will definitely be coming back ....

Loved our week at The Wilderness Condo

Loved our week at The Wilderness Condo

The VIEW was spectacular. Any time spend in the condo we spent on the deck. Loved eating breakfast and sometimes lunch on this wonderful deck. Location - we love the Leelanau Peninsula and Lake Michigan and we had access to all of our favorite places from your condo. Would love to come back next year. Did not mean to give 1 star to property manager. Did not have contact.

Awesome family vacation on Lake Michigan!

Awesome family vacation on Lake Michigan!

I don’t think you can beat this location. There is so much to do in the area, and it is beautiful. Having the shores of Lake Michigan as our front porch and playground for the kids, and staring across the lake at the dunes and islands in the distance, are images I will always fondly recall. The pictures of the unit are accurate and so is this description. We had friends who stayed in a different area of the Homestead. Their unit was more updated on the inside, but our location was much better (more private, easier access to the beach and less congested). Thank you Wendy for sharing your rental with us-I think we will be looking to return in the future!

Just minutes from downtown Glen Arbor, a few steps from the back deck to the lakeshore, and a cozy lake home experience with all of the amenities.

We had a wonderful week staying at Wilderness 15 in Glen Arbor! The view was amazing and the beach was just steps away from the porch. We rented bikes and explored the town and the trails. Kayaking the Crystal River was really fun too! The condo is charming and comfortable for 4 adults. The owner is very kind and super helpful! Thank you so much!

Well-appointed condo on the beach at Glen Arbor.

Well-appointed condo on the beach at Glen Arbor.

The condo had everything we needed and the beach access was fantastic. We also loved the patio and often ate out there. The beds were not too comfortable, however. The kitchen worked great and the layout was good. So much to do in the area and this place is a great home base. We would absolutely come here again!

I brought my daughters, aged 5 & 9, to stay for a week and they had a great time. Playing on the beach, exploring the crystal river, riding their bikes; it was all a huge adventure for them. Hanging out at the fire pit and watching the sunset was a favorite of mine. We'll be back.

Great Time, Great Location!

Great Time, Great Location!

Our family enjoyed an amazing time at your condo. It was clean, the owners were AMAZINGLY helpful when we had a bit of an emergency. Also their local support staff was outstanding and the place was perfect for our family. The listing and pictures presented are accurate. We kyaked on the crystal river, we took the hike you suggested, spent A LOT of time at the beach, enjoyed the bonfire pit, and even did some night fishing on the beach - yes the fish were jumping! I would recommend this place!
