Loved this house! We're very familiar with Glen Arbor area but staying right on Crystal River was magical for our extended family trip. We used the kayaks and SUPs every day in every direction. Such a blast to stay right on the water, and this house is built to take full advantage of views and access to Crystal River. Our host, Julie, was great and was quick to help with anything we needed.

The Weaver House was very accommodating for our family of 14. The children loved the Crystal River right off the back deck. Fishing and swimming were great. The location to Lake Michigan and Glen Arbor was perfect. The host was quick to respond to any needs we had.

We had a lovely stay at this VRBO property. The house is spacious with beautiful views of the river, providing a serene setting for our family and friends. The space, both indoors and outdoors by the river, allowed us to enjoy our time together comfortably, catering to all ages and energy levels. We enjoyed biking from the house to nearby attractions like the Dunes Climb. Nearby trails are picturesque and offer a pleasant way to explore the surroundings. The property's proximity to Glen Arbor, with its good selection of restaurants, was very convenient. Additionally, being within 10 min walking distance to Lake Michigan was a great advantage, making beach visits easy and enjoyable. The owner was friendly and communicative, promptly answering our questions and ensuring we had a smooth stay. A small reminder: bring insect repellent for ticks. We recommend this property for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway.

The house fit our family of 10 very well (6 adults and 4 children). The use of canoes and kayaks was definitely a plus. It is located near town, best to drive though especially with young children. Most activities are within 15-30 minutes away. Lots of room in the house and all 10 could have dinner together. The owner was very quick to answer any questions we had. Be sure to check out the houses history on the second floor. We enjoyed our stay at The Weaver House!

Our family had a wonderful time. We had 3 generations faith a toddler, older children, and adults children in their 20’s. Everyone had a blast. We loved swimming, paddle boarding, and kayaking in the river. The gentle current and shallow water meant that even the toddler Could enjoy the water. Perfect vacation home for a large family gathering.

This lovely house was a wonderful place for our extended family (four households represented) to stay for a week. With a wide range of ages from grandparents to a 1 year old, there were plenty of activities for everyone including swimming, kayaking, and fishing. The busy road out front and the river out back made us extra cautious about where the little kids were at all hours of the day, but we knew that going into the week and it worked out fine. The house was clean with great amenities. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen with soap, trash bags, and paper towels provided. Checking in and checking out were both a breeze, and the property manager was wonderful in communicating and helping us as needed. The deck is spacious for enjoying the Crystal River with plenty of outdoor seating. We loved having the kayaks at our disposal, and the kids LOVED having the kid sized kayaks. One or two adult kayaks and a few paddles were in need of repair, but we still had plenty to enjoy. One unique characteristic of the house is that you have to walk through either the master bedroom or the downstairs bunk room to access the other side of the house. This didn't create any major issues for us, but it would have been helpful to know for planning, so I'll mention it for anyone else who reads reviews like we do. Thank you for a great stay! We would love to come back if it works out sometime!

We had a great time staying at this property with my brother and his family. There was more than enough space for all of us. The location close to town is very convenient and we were able to visit with our other brother who live on Little Glen. Thanks so much for such a lovely stay!

Uniquely decorated home for large families. Modern kitchen. Right on the Cristal river with kayaks and canoes. Long walk into town, short drive to access Lake Michigan.

... from a wall of windows inside the house. Our group of 13 could comfortably separate throughout the house or gather for meals in the roomy kitchen-dining area. The bunk room was perfect for our 6 teen boys, and all had comfortable beds. The home was well equipped with all that we needed. It was a nice location for the outdoor things we wanted to do; i.e., skiing Crystal Mountain, sledding on Sleeping Bear Dunes; even kayaked!

Our multigenerational group found plenty of room to spread out at the Weaver House. The dock on the edge of the beautiful Crystal River gave the four kids, ages 3 to 8, a great place to jump into the water, and plenty of space for the parents and grandparents to watch and join in! The River has a gentle current and a sandy bottom, making it perfect for swimming and kayaking on the many kayaks at the house. The house was clean, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed to have family dinners around the large dining table. The house is on M22, this gave us easy access to Sleeping Bear dunes, Glen Lakes, and a 2 minute drive to the shops in Glen Arbor. There is plenty to explore. Traverse City is a 45 minute drive. Communication with the owners was easy and precise. Thanks for the great summer experience!

Very spacious, well appointed home on the Crystal River. Our family (adult siblings/spouses) had a great time in the home---very large with many quiet spaces to enjoy time alone or with the group. The scenic view along the Crystal River was interesting and entertaining as we watched the kayakers, etc. and the wildlife.

An amazing place to stay right on the Crystal River and a short jaunt to Lake Michigan. Clean, ample space for everyone (11 of us but there was space for more), lovely hosts. I highly recommend this property and hope to go back there next year.

We had a great time. Swam and fished from the dock and went kayaking. Toured the dunes. Went hiking and biking and rented a pontoon boat on Glen Lake.
