Beautiful views. Clean, kitchen cabinets are over crowded with unnecessary items and knives are very dull. Needs a decent cutting board, a cheese slicer, a French press but I appreciated the second coffee pot after I cleaned it out. Nice master bath. The sheets on king bed a bit small. Lack of towels was noticeable. Vacasa is not very helpful as I asked for my sheets to be washed in gentle detergent and they were unable to comply. Bring your own detergent. Washer and dryer are nice.Internet was spotty. Resetting modem was somewhat helpful. The condo number was not on the main signs but get out of your car and look.

Amazing views of Lake Michigan

Condo is nice and cozy, the views are great and we enjoyed the sunsets. A bit out of date, but still a nice place. Everything worked and we will be back again!

WARNING!! This unit does not have air conditioning and does not clearly say so.

We were disappointed when moving in how hot the unit was and discovering it did not have air conditioning. This was not disclosed clearly in the website. Also the master bedroom tv did not have audio until a Vacasa tech came over and corrected (should have been checked before our arrival). Because the weather was ideal our stay was enjoyable and all other aspects of the unit was just fine.

Ship watch 15 Glen Arbor

The condo was very comfortable and clean. The view of Lake Michigan was super as were the sunsets! The only draw backs were the dryer that didn't work and the 5 days it took to fix it. And the lack of handrails on the stairs. Very dangerous for older people especially one using a cane. Don't believe this is up to code.

Another Great Stay

The Homestead is a perfect place to enjoy the beauty of Lake Michigan and all of its nearby dune trails. This condo is clean, comfortable, and has everything we need for a wonderful stay. The layout and the view keep us coming back again and again!

Beautiful View but the Unit needs maintenance

The Unit was clean when we arrived but the carpet is stained and needs replacing. There were broken fixtures in the bathroom and the lock system to get in was horrible. No light and basically bike lock type of numbers impossible to see and unlock, takes two hands and nowhere does it say there is an actual key is inside the lock. Although the view from the condo is fantastic and the complex is very quiet and secluded. I would not stay in this unit again.

Stairs and management

Beautiful view of the lake! You have to climb 3 flights of stairs with your luggage. Management did nothing after we reported that the TV wasn’t working. Great location!

We had an excellent vacation staying in this condo. The location was absolutely perfect. The condo was so spacious and had pretty much all we needed for an entire week. The view was heavenly!

Great location

The condo is in a great location. Amenities are just as described. Being right on Lake Michigan is a plus! Beware if booking in hot summer months (July/Aug) that the lack of air-conditioning plays a big factor. Granted our week was unseasonably warm in the Low 80s...But despite having every ceiling fan, floor fan going the condo routinely stayed around 78-84 deg inside. Although we knew this condo did not have air-conditioning we had never been to Glen Arbor in the summertime and were unaware of how necessary this can be (especially if you have young kids/elderly in your party).

A winter weekend stay in Glenn Arbor

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at this lovely beachfront condo on the shores on Lake Michigan. It was clean, well stocked and the location was perfect for beach walks (even in the winter) and wooded hikes. Thank you!
