Great spot in the Homestead

Perfect spot to stay for a quick ski weekend at the Homestead! Spacious main living space to spread out and enjoy - 3 full bathrooms was a plus- and nice efficient setup downstairs with the two additional bedrooms and full bath.

A very peaceful spot

The house is beautifully situated in the forest and offers complete privacy on the deck. The light coming in the windows in the afternoon was wonderful. We found everything that we needed for a relaxing stay. Windows need washing and the carpet needs a good cleaning, but the routine housekeeping standards seem high.

The Tree House within the Homestead Resort

The house was accurately described and photographed. The kitchen was very well appointed. It was clean and easy to use and to care for. Management promptly answered our questions and helped us with the internet connection password. In a neighborhood but very private. The garage was a lovely bonus to load up the car for our trip home. The area and the home were very quiet. We had a great time!

Great Location, Great Place to Stay

We spent three nights at the Tree House and wish we could have stayed longer. The name fits the property well, lots of trees and canopy give it a private feel, even though the neighboring homes are close by. Lots of space for our family with an open floorplan, high ceilings, and lots of windows in the main living area. Nearby is the town of Glen Arbor, just about a 5 minute drive away. So much to do in town, restaurants, shopping, kayak tours, biking, mini golf, etc.; but also a great location that served as base camp for us as we went on daily adventures to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Haven, Glen Lake, Empire, Leland and the Leelanau Peninsula. Would definitely come back and stay again!

August 24 Family Getaway

All in all the home was well equipped and comfortable. Robin was responsive to our needs. It would be more accurate to indicate that there is couch with a pull out bed in a separate room on the main floor bringing the total number of bedrooms to 5. The exterior of the home was not up to par. The wood in the entryway and the deck all need at least a coat of paint. The roof that is visible from the back deck looks like it needs attention too.

Multiple family stay for a wedding

The hosts were wonderful communicators and answered any question we had - so for that we were grateful. However, we were underwhelmed with the property as soon as we arrived. The address was easily confused with a set of condos on the same road - we were greeted by a rather cranky neighbor who eventually told us we were at the condos and not the houses - an unfortunate start to the stay.The house is very large - but needs a lot of upkeep. For those who are sensitive to smells - it does smell a little musty. We were also surprised by the lack of towels on hand, as well as toilet paper (we eventually found a few rolls after reaching out to hosts). When using the pullout couch - there were leftover toys stuffed inside, as well as crumbs. Overall - it seems like it can meet some needs - but it definitely not something we would return to. I certainly would not recommend having more than 8 people stay here. Sad that we had to leave this review - the setting really is quiet.

I stayed with my husband, our three children (ages 7, 11 and 13) and my parents in law (in their 70s) for 4 nights. Home was comfortable and well-equipped and communication with the property manager was excellent. Very close to Sleeping Bear Dunes and charming Glen Arbor (check out the Cottage Book Shop!). The lower level bedrooms felt damp and chilly upon arrival but we ran the dehumidifier in the queen bedroom closet during the day and found that effective.

The communication we had with Robin was excellent. Our check-in process was seamless and her place was clean and extremely comfortable. Our purpose for staying there was a few days with women friends and we enjoyed it immensely. We were able to spread out in the living room in the evening, and there is plenty of room in the kitchen for the few meals that we had there. We had all the necessary appliances and kitchen items that we needed. It was quiet and private and of course, you can’t beat the location. All my friends really loved the place and we highly recommend it.
