Miles of Trails

With endless options to walk, jog, run, or climb - you won’t get bored and you’ll get plenty of exercise! Summit Sleeping Bear Dunes, hike Empire Bluffs (pictured above,) Pyramid Point, and others, or stroll down Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail. If you prefer to explore by car or bike, the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive is stunning and you won’t want to miss the overlook at stops no. 9 and 10.

Full of Charm

Downtown Glen Arbor is just a short 1.5 miles from our condo and offers wonderful options for shopping and dining. You’ll want to stop by local favorites such as Cottage Book Shop, M22 (pictured above,) and Art’s Tavern. And - don’t forget to grab an ice cream cone at Cherry Republic before you head back to the condo to relax.

Options for Play

There are wonderful parks in the Glen Arbor area which provide fun for family members of all ages. 1.5 miles from the condo is a massive park (pictured above) with basketball/tennis/pickleball courts and a spacious playground for the kids. There are two waterfront parks, one on Lake Michigan and one on South Bar Lake, located in Empire.

Paradise Found

A cozy 2 bedroom; 1 bath slice of paradise

We’re thrilled you’re interested in visiting our happy place! We are a family of five and we’ve spent the last 18 years exploring (and renting) in the Glen Arbor area. In 2020, we finally decided it was time to have a place to call our own. Welcome to Paradise Found!

Situated at the Homestead Resort, our condo has direct sandy frontage on Lake Michigan as well as direct frontage on the Crystal River. We recently completed a full remodel including all new flooring, kitchen, bathroom, drywall, insulation, paint, built-ins, and new furniture.

We’ve maximized the space to technically sleep 8, but the size is perfectly suited for 5-6 people.

Most Beautiful Place in America

The condo is located on the beach chosen by Money Magazine as "No. 1 of the 8 Best Beaches to Visit this Summer" and is surrounded by the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore which was chosen by the viewers of ABC's Good Morning America as the "Most Beautiful Place in America".

What We Offer

Mother Nature steals the spotlight in Glen Arbor - but there is nothing better than returning to our cozy condo after a long day exploring and enjoying the sites. When remodeling our condo, we spared no comfort-related detail. The interior space is well suited to parties of 5-6 people and is family-friendly.

Outside, there are two decks to lounge on which overlook the river and small dunes near the beach. Crystal River is located directly outside our door and flows into Lake Michigan. Grab a kayak, stand-up paddle board, or tube and float your cares away while taking in the stunning views only northern Michigan can offer. Want to be near the open water? Cross the bridge steps from the condo and find yourself on miles of Lake Michigan shoreline.
