Waterfront condo with stunning views in Glen Arbor. Air conditioning.

Waterfront condo with stunning views in Glen Arbor. Air conditioning.

8/10 Good
"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Tall Timbers D5 is beautifully located on the shore of Lake Michigan with a spectacular view. The condo was clean and well stocked. The space needs some love: fresh paint, replace loose tiles, replace worn furniture."

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great experience. The place where we stayed was very nice, quite beautiful surroundings. Nice kitchen. Quite clean, nice beds, comfortable seating. My one recommendation is to fix the slider in the living room and add a screen door to it. I would recommend this place to friends."

Waterfront Studio, newly renovated, A Cool Studio, Glen Arbor M22 Crystal River

10/10 Excellent
"This charming studio near Glen Arbor is an excellent choice for a single traveler or a couple. It is clean, well cared-for and has everything you need for a short stay. The kitchenette is well stocked, the furnishings and queen size bed are very comfortable. Best of all it is literally on the banks of the Crystal River and steps from a bridge taking you to the sandy private beach of Lake Michigan. The owners are extremely prompt in all communications, and their "Cool Studio" App is remarkably well done. It offers the renter all the info needed to facilitate a carefree stay. I am looking forward to my next stay...wish it were next week!"

"Great location. Close to Glen Arbor and surrounding attractions. Beautiful grounds. The beach is a very short walk. The only hangup that we had is that they did not give us the code for the parking lot gate. Very clean."

GOOD VIBES LAKEFRONT CONDO

10/10 Excellent
"This is a very clean and updated unit that met our expectations. It has a beautiful view of Lake Michigan and the Crystal River. The Homestead is a quiet and well-run facility with easy access to restaurants. The beach is absolutely immaculate. We had 1/2 mile of beachfront essentially to ourselves for much of the week. Glen Arbor is just a short drive with many restaurants. Our kids loved kayaking (Crystal River Outfitters in Glen Arbor) and horseback riding (Ranch Rudolf in Traverse City). Every major store you need is 30 minutes away in Traverse City. Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes is also very close. This place is outstanding!!!"
