This condo was just updated with brand new vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint, as well as a brand new beautiful kitchen (May 2021). The updated kitchen includes new white cabinets with soft close drawers, new quartz countertops, new glass backsplash, a new sink with updated faucet, and all new stainless steel appliances.

In the winter you can enjoy the Homestead Resort ski hill for downhill excitement! Or explore the National Shoreline on cross country skis and snowshoes! There are miles of trails inside the Resort and more just a short drive away.
In the summer you can tube, kayak or SUP on the Crystal River all the way out to Lake Michigan! Walk the beach, stroll along the riverbank, or walk the boardwalk which stretches for blocks just outside the condo building. Hike or bike the nearby paved Heritage Bike Trail to scenic Northern Michigan destinations.
Large heated and air conditioned condo with smart-tv, cable access, internet access (Wifi) and vaulted ceilings throughout. This 3rd floor condo has a million dollar view. You will enjoy spectacular evening sunsets over Lake Michigan.
The condo has one full bath on the main floor with a newly re-glazed shower/tub combo and new hardware as well as a brand new quartz countertop on the vanity, and one full bath with a stand-up tile shower in the semi--private upstairs loft-suite. The updated kitchen is complete with dishes, silverware, basic cooking utensils, glasses, coffee pot, new pots/pans, new microwave, new stove, refrigerator, and new dishwasher. Large kitchen table will seat up to 6 people.

Great stay while attending a wedding at the Homestead. Condo is right near the beach with wonderful views!

We wanted to visit Traverse City, but stay on Lake Michigan. This condo and Glen Arbor were perfect! The condo was clean and had plenty of room for three adults. Exceptional view and easy walk down to Lake Michigan! We appreciated the very thorough Welcome Packet. Highly recommend!
5.0
We had an excellent stay in this condo. Each of the three bedrooms has lots of room and lots of storage. The air conditioning made a big difference on warm days. Furnishings were great, especially the recently re-done kitchen and floors and it was spotlessly clean! The host was responsive - we had one minor issue that was quickly and thoughtfully resolved. Mainly, the location is absolutely unbeatable. The Crystal River is right out front, the sunsets from the balcony are unparalleled, and in just a two minute walk your toes are in Lake Michigan. Strongly recommend.

This place is a cute little spot with both river and lake views. Very nicely renovated. Just know the kitchen is on the small side if you are looking to cook big dinners.

We’ve been visiting the Homestead for over 10 years, and this was definitely one of the nicest condos we stayed in. The location is wonderful, the view spectacular. We had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed this property. The view of Lake MI is absolutely lovely and it directly over looks the river. We brought our own tubes and enjoyed floating down the (warmer) river into Lake MI. We felt so spoiled having such access to Lake MI. The kitchen/dining/living area is fairly small but very comfortable. Note that the dining table seats 4 and there is small table for 2 on the balcony. The kitchen, while small, had everything we needed to make basic meals. We also used the facility grill and that worked well. Everyone thought their beds were comfortable, although the main floor bed frame was a little squeaky. We also liked how each area had it's own thermostat! We had one question for the host and she answered very promptly. I'm really hoping we can come back again sometime.

This unit inside The Homestead is in a great location, with close up views of the river and Lake Michigan right off your balcony. The downside is everything but the kitchen/living areas need to be updated. Bathrooms are especially in need of complete renovation. The owner was great with communication and very accommodating. We love the location but will look for a more updated unit next time.

The view is great. The instuctions sent a few days before made finding the place easy. Only snall thing i reached out for an early check in but never heard back but might have had the wrong email.

Had a nice stay. Not related to the room itself, the flies are NO JOKE this time of year (June 2024). Bring bug spray. One helpful thing to know when booking if laundry ability is important to you, you will need quarters as this facility has laundry but only as coin-op.
5.0
View from the balcony and living room is stunning. Bedrooms are good sized and comfortable for two active over 70 couples. Fall colors on our bike rides and drives around Leelanau lit up our days even when weather didn’t cooperate. The condo was comfortable and in great shape as promised.
5.0
We really enjoyed our stay at this very accommodating property. Great amenities and fantastic location to explore Leelanau county! Plenty of room for our group of 6 and the view to Lake Michigan is fantastic.

Great property location on Lake Michigan. Unit can handle two couples and two children. I would stay there again with family.

The views from the balcony are worth every penny! Just a short walk to the Crystal River and Lake Michigan beachfront, which was fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay. Karen was a most excellent host. My only complaint is that we couldn’t stay longer.

Beautiful condo with a breathtaking view of Lake Michigan and the sleeping bear area shoreline. Very comfortable and worked well with two small children who could not get enough of the Durham sand beach.
5.0
Condo was lovely, nice and clean with an absolutely incredible view. Can see the sand dunes and the manitou islands from the back patio, just a 2 min walk from the beach. Honestly, the place looked even better than the photos in the listing, very modern. Check in was painless, zero complaints about the whole experience.

This was our second consecutive fall stay. Location is great on the river and big lake just over the bridge. Everything you need is in the peninsula. Weather blessed us with fall colors and mid 70s. Had a great time.

Well maintained property at a great location with excellent views
5.0
This condo suited our needs very well. We were three adults and one child. The condo was spacious and comfortable. Thermostats were a little tricky and took some getting used to but we figured them out. Make sure you bring along additional essentials - toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags - there were minimal quantity available, we had to purchase a restock halfway through our week-long stay. The views and location within The Homestead cannot be beat. Our daughter very much enjoyed the river and beach even on the cooler windy days! Some things could use an update (updated games, better lighting, and thermostats) but we very much appreciated the updated kitchen and downstairs bathroom. I would recommend to others, and I would stay here again in the future.

Great Getaway Spot
Wonderful spot in The Homestead. Everything was as it appeared in the listing. The place was spotless. Had one minor issue which was immediately resolved. The host was a good communicator and very responsive. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Condo Getaway
We had a great time here. Really nice property!

Very special
We've wanted to spend some time in this location for a while. It books up early for good reason (we made our res in January). The area has SO much to offer all ages, and staying on the water was a priority. To be on the 3rd floor was special, therefore having a view of the lake and the river (we couldn't imagine making all the effort to get there and being on the first floor!). All seven sunsets were memorable from the balcony. The upstairs loft/suite gave our 15 year old perfect independence. The only negative would be the incredibly loud air conditioner unit, which fortunately we didn't need much.

Enjoyable one-week stay at the Homestead
We were very happy to make a late booking at this property to coordinate with family that were staying elsewhere at the Homestead. Condo unit has been nicely renovated and we had an enjoyable stay!

Family Vacation
I really enjoyed my vacation on this property. Being on the homestead resort made this the perfect location for me and my family not to mention a short drive into town and very close to Traverse city. It was awesome to be just walking distance to the beach from the condo and we had a great veiw of the beach from our patio. Karen was a great host. She responded quickly to my emails. The welcome package Karen provided was very detail with all the information I needed for the trip. My only one complaint was inside the closet on the upper level of the condo were dusty. Overall Enjoyed staying at this property.

Wonderful vacation in a gorgeous area of the country
We had the best time last week in Glen Arbor Michigan. It was a perfect stay with Karen as an awesome host. The week before she sent us a large document with what to bring and all the information we needed for check-in and check out and area information with links. It was very detailed and very helpful and we used that packet the entire time. The condo is a perfect in and out spot to visit the Sleeping Bear dunes, check out all the awesome towns like Traverse City and Leland. And then head home in the afternoon for a dip in the lake. We went to bed every night very happy watching the sunset beside the Sleeping Bear dune. The condo is very clean and well equipped. The parking is very easy. The small kitchen was perfect for our needs. And my older son loved the loft as a quiet place to hang out by himself. We fished, kayak, hiked, visited towns, swam in the lake, ate wonderful local fish, explored, and really enjoyed meeting all the locals who are so nice. It was a perfect vacation and we are excited to come again. Thank you Karen for all that you did set us up for a great trip.

Beautiful lakeside spot
The view is the best part of this place. Watching the sunsets every night was priceless. The Kitchen was recently updated and everything else was in good condition, clean, and comfortable. The living space is small but functional, the bedrooms are large.

Great time. Amazing views.

Great place on the lake
This was a very nice property with great views. Karen was very helpful and accommodating to our needs. Yes it is a bit dated especially the kitchen and main floor bathroom, but it is very functional for 6 of us and since admiring the kitchen wasn't on my bucket list for the weekend it was fine for our needs. We plan to go back next year too.

Great location
Good: Perfect location, easy access, Everything we need to cook, large space, good beds
Not so good: dirty: even the broom on patio was covered in cobwebs so no effort had been made to clean patio, old: stove, showers, furniture all functional but definitely past their prime
Suggestion: make kayaks, SUP, bikes available. No one would rent to us. We’d pay extra to have them available and accessible on property.
