About this house rental

Looking for a fun, beautiful escape in Glen Arbor with your family and friends? Crystal Bend is a new rental with so much to offer! It sits on a large lot on the Crystal River in downtown Glen Arbor (yet away from it all). This cedar shake home is only a half a mile from the beach (and only a few miles from several other good beaches!), has kayaks for paddling the river, a sauna by the water, a game room with foosball and ping pong, as well as a great treehouse in the riverside yard! There are 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main house. There is an additional bedroom off of the game room, and a closed off den (with sleeper sofa) make this perfect for accommodating a larger group. The state of the art kitchen has a beautiful Viking range and two islands for prep work! Gather around the large farmhouse table that can seat 10, or belly up to the bar that can seat 6. Leelanau Peninsula wineries begin in Glen Arbor, as does the Heritage Trail (perfect for running, walking and biking) that runs through the woods, Glen Haven, the Dunes, and to Empire. The famed Sleeping Bear Dune Climb is only 5 miles away, as well as the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, and the beautiful Glen Lakes are less than a mile away- perfect for boating fun! And, don't miss the putt putt golf course on the river just down from the house! In the summer, enjoy the green grass, warm, shallow waters for splashing around and playing, and perfect for kayaking and tubing!

Absolutely loved our stay on the river. Plenty to do with being on the River and being in walking distance to town. Kayaks, fishing, bon fires, miniature golf, ice cream and lots of walks. We have three teenagers, plenty to keep them busy. The house itself was perfect. Everyone had their own room. The kitchen did not disappoint! We will be back!

Fantastic location, gourmet kitchen, and lots of kayaks to enjoy the river were some of the highlights of this Glen Arbor home.

Our family of 10 adults and 2 kids under 5 had a wonderful week in Glen Arbor while staying here. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out if needed. Most of the time we hung out in the kitchen/dinning room table area or outside on the deck by the river. The location on the river was great fun for us as the people kayaking down Crystal River went by all the time giving us plenty to watch. Bonus that the property had a number of kayaks for us to us which allowed us to take quick little trips with the 4 year old. I used the paddle board once when we went to the beach for the afternoon. Huge bonus of a pontoon boat! Plenty of room for everyone to fit on the boat. Life jackets were made available for the 4 and 1 year old. We did find the floor on the first floor need a sweeping when we arrived but other than that everything was very clean. We brought much of our own spices but there were plenty of spices available at the house. I would highly recommend this home from large families visiting Glen Arbor.

What a wonderful stay! The house was perfect for 10 of us (6 adults and 4 children). The river was beautiful and very quiet. The kids LOVED being in the river! Kayaks and paddle boards were provided!!! Loved the Pontoon boat also as well as the fire pit on the river. Only recommendation I would make is to have chairs on the upstairs deck. Thank you for a memorable family vacation!

We had an awesome stay! The location is secluded yet just a few steps away from all the fun/town activities in Glen Arbor - we walked to restaurants and the putt putt golf course and took kayaking and canoe trips on the Crystal River easily with the boats they had at the house. Also - the house comes with a pontoon boat so you can take trips out onto Glen Lake, which we enjoyed as well. The dock and campfire areas in the back yard give the vacation that "deep woods/nature" feel that is so charming up north. The only reason we didn't give the home 5 stars is that it lacks a few basics - fans (it gets hot in July and one bedroom did not have an operating fan or a cross breeze) and the couch pull-out mattress that is credited as another bedroom was essentially unusable -- very uncomfortable for the person sleeping there. Not sure what it is listed as saying it sleeps, but probably comfortably sleeps between 10-12 (I wouldn't count that pullout). These are really minor issues as the home as a whole was amazing and we felt so lucky to stay there for a week.
