We actually didn't know what we were getting because we got moved to this property instead of our original rental and it was even better than we could have imagined. Comfy beds, lots of space to spread out, a fantastic kitchen, lovely views...I could go on and on. ##### April B.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented the house for a girls weekend in January/February. The house fit the bill! It had everything we needed (except wash clothes - not one in the house lol). It had all all of the pans, kitchen appliances, utensils etc we could have needed. Comfy furniture and beautiful views out tons of windows. Our group thought the beds were comfortable and the water pressure was great. The only issue we had was a terrible squeak from a register vent fan that kept some of us up the first night but we shut it off after a call to the office the next morning and no noise after. It had a great location and not too far from wine tasting, places to eat and site seeing places that were on our list. We appreciated the large table for playing games and plenty of seating for when we wanted to just lounge and visit. We would rent the house again in a heartbeat! ##### Tanya L.

Jun 22, 2024 #### Overall, great stay with a few minor suggestions Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we had a great stay at this home. We thought this house was very spacious with lots of room to gather. We had a great experience overall, and the location is very conveniently close to the town (only about a 5 minute drive into town).We have a few suggestions for a better stay;1\. Deeper clean before the guests arrive. The home was not very clean when we arrived; the floors were covered in dirt, lamps were covered in spider webs, and you can just tell that the surfaces were not touched very well. We were hesitant to sit outside on the patio because it was covered in spider webs, bugs, and debris. We understand we were in the woods, but we believe it could have been touched before we arrived. Once we took the time to dust everything off ourselves, we enjoyed the space nightly. The trash bin was full when we arrived, but it was taken care of in a timely manner which we appreciated! 2\. If there is no AC in the home, we’d appreciate working fans to cool down the space. Although having no AC was not a problem for us, a few of the fans were not in working condition so it was a little unpleasant in terms of the interior air flow and temperature. 3\. The Primary Bedroom tv was not functioning. It was a minor detail but we weren’t able to enjoy the tv at a time where we would have liked to wind down in bed. Other than this feedback, we really enjoyed the home overall. We would recommend this place to family and friends if the above suggestions were looked at. This was a wonderful stay! ##### Melissa G.

I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was a good size, location, and setup. We enjoyed our stay. A couple things to note:House interior temperature was cold upon arrival check in. The home than took a while to get to a comfortable temperature. Fireplace was very drafty and the flue was not able to shut properly. - the was mice excrement found on downstairs bedding below the covers. We continued to find mouse droppings in basement during our stay in bedrooms and on the bathroom counter. - kitchen was missing hot pads to cook with. Coffee make brew took 30 minutes plus? ##### B S. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rob G.

Enjoyed easy access to the beach and close proximity to Glen Arbor! ##### Rob G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheri V. Oct 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My sisters and I stayed during a beautiful week in September. The house was perfect, other than some ants, but we’ve come to expect them in the middle of the woods, so no big deal. My family was the original builders and owners of this house, so it was just as we remembered it, along with some amazing new renovations. The Homestead, and more specifically, this house, holds a special place in our hearts! Thank you for allowing us to stay and relive some childhood memories. It was just as magical as we remembered. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/01bb9638-e338-4251-8d5c-0572a7e8462b-1759853872395.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sheri V.

We had 2 families, 4 adults and 3 kids total. Plenty of room. No access to pools which is a bummer, but access to beaches and restaurants on the property. Great location. ##### Emily R.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The kitchen was well-equipped to prepare meals for 10 and space for people to help or watch. The home had space for people to escape and the location and setting served as a great central location to get out and explore or stay behind and read and relax amongst the trees. ##### Amy S.

Jul 1, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great getaway but needs more upkeep Overall, we had a wonderful stay. Enjoyed the location and feeling of being in the middle of the woods. Would have been better with more comfortable furniture in the living room to read, relax and settle down with a movie. The kitchen and grill for breakfast and dinner were great, as well as the updated washer / dryer! Would have been nice to sit on the deck but the patio & furniture needed a good cleaning. Upon arrival we noticed the cleanliness was mediocre, dirty counters, sinks, plates and utensils. Very convenient location, close enough to go for a nice walk, drive into town, drive to a new beach daily and check out so many areas outside of glen arbor. We took plenty of beach trips but all of the beach chairs were not usable so had to purchase our own. Overall great house and location for a family on the go! ##### Kelsey L.
