Great Place to stay close to Glenn Arbor and the Dunes!

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was spacious and very clean. The three beds in the loft definitely helps give more sleeping space for six adults.

Carefree retreat

This property is delightful. The back deck is beautiful and huge. The house is lovely and was perfect for three couples. We each had a room with a king size bed. There is a staircase to a loft from one of the bedrooms with 2 double beds and 1 queen size bed. We did not use them, but could be great for kids. Our bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. The owners were just up the hill and very nice and responsive. They did not leave a huge list of rules like so many other rentals do. It was nice to be trusted to behave. The kitchen was very well equipped. I would definitely stay there again! The location is great being close to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Lake Michigan, rivers for kayaking, hiking, wineries, Glen Arbor and Traverse City.
