About this property

Perfect Location for M-22 Challenge! 1-Bedroom Condo overlooking Lake Michigan

You cannot get a better view of the splendor than from our newly updated deck! The exterior of our condo buildings were just repaired and painted and we'd love for you to enjoy them.

Take in gorgeous water views from this spacious one bedroom condo located on Lake Michigan inside the Homestead Resort property on M-22 in Glen Arbor, MI. Very private location, lake and river views, gated parking by the beach, and beautiful sunsets over the lake.

It is important to note that the Bedroom does not have a door that closes. So, although there is some distance between the bedroom and the living area, the bedroom is open to the hallway that leads to the living room-kitchen combination. See pictures for more details.

Awesome location on two bodies of water: Lake Michigan and the Crystal River. Enjoy a breathtaking view from a deck overlooking the river, Lake Michigan, the Manitou Islands, and Sleeping Bear Point. You will be only 2 miles from the quaint town of Glen Arbor and 20 miles from all the action in Traverse City.

Tube, kayak or SUP on the Crystal River all the way out to Lake Michigan! Walk the beach, stroll along the riverbank, or walk the boardwalk which stretches for blocks, just outside the condo building. Hike or bike the nearby paved Heritage Bike Trail to scenic Northern Michigan destinations.

In the winter you can enjoy the Homestead Resort ski hill for downhill excitement! Or explore the National Shoreline on cross country skis and snowshoes! There are miles of trails inside the Resort and more just a short drive away.

The condo is Heated and Air Conditioned and has cable tv, internet access, and is close to the beach. This condo has a breathtaking view. You will enjoy spectacular evening sunsets over Lake Michigan.

There is a luxurious queen size bed in the bedroom. And the living room sofa will fold open into a full size comfortable futon (see photos)

The condo has one full bath with a walk-in shower (no bathtub), a cute kitchen complete with dishes, silverware, basic cooking utensils, glasses, coffee pot, pots/pans, microwave, stove, refrigerator (NOTE: there is no dishwasher in this unit). Large square bar height table.

Coin operated washer & dryer are located in the common area on the ground floor of the condominium building. There is a gas grill on property for use by condo guests.

This privately owned unit is nestled on the water in a discreetly gated property. No public check in required. The unit is on the second floor of the building and is not handicap accessible.

Note: Although the condo is located inside the Homestead Resort, it is not a resort-owned property, it is privately owned. The Homestead Resort Pools and Tennis Courts are not available for use. There are public tennis courts in Glen Arbor (just minutes down the road). You WILL have access to all of the resort amenities that are open to the public, such as all grounds and beach area, most of the restaurants, golf (ski hill in the winter), spa, salon, and the shops in the Village.

Beautiful views

This condo was very comfortable for the two of us. The accommodations for more than that would be less comfortable. The futon wouldn’t be a very comfortable surface to sleep on. Everything else about the condo was wonderful. We spent a great deal of time relaxing on the balcony with views of the Crystal River and Lake Michigan. We would stay here again. It would be good to take a look at the bathroom fan. It is quite noisy. Also a hook to hang the hand towel in the bathroom on would be great.

Relaxing getaway

My husband and I came for just a short 3 day vacation. We are familiar with Glen Arbor and the Homestead Resort but had never stayed on any of the properties back there. We enjoyed the condo. Perfect for the 2 of us. Our full day there was perfect. Sunny and comfortable temps. Loved being able to walk a short easy distance to Lake Michigan and sit and enjoy the views. Took a trip over to Sleeping Bear Dunes. Beautiful drive. Colors starting to change. Such a beautiful area up there.

Sand Bear Dunes Hideaway

Great little hideaway for a trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes. Exactly as advertised and in pictures. Great location - very close to Glen Arbor. Contained with large resort property with very nice grounds but separated and feeling of privacy. Can’t beat walking out the door to your own pretty much private beach on Lake Michigan.

Tall Timbers Condo

This condo is a cute little place that has an amazing view and great location. It was clean plus the bed and furniture were very comfortable. It has a compact kitchen so is not the best for big meal preparation but it worked for us. We would stay her again.

Fall in Northern Michigan

The views from the condo out over Lake Michigan and the Manitou Islands were spectacular. Ideal distance from Glen Arbor, Leland, Suttons Bay, and Traverse City-perfect for day trips to each! The Homestead was a perfect combination of peaceful quiet and adventurous hiking trails. The condo was clean and afforded comfortable living space for our trip!

Great location

Nestled in the beautiful Homestead resort, this quiet 1 bedroom condo was perfect for our needs. We didn't spend much time inside because of easy access to hiking and biking, but when we were, it suited us well. We ended each day watching the sunset on the beach, and slept soundly in the comfortable bed.

Beachfront Getaway

We enjoyed two nights at this cozy Tall Timbers condo. The location is hard to beat. Spectacular sunsets and easy beach access with views of Sleeping Bear Dunes. Close to Glen Arbor, bike trails and hiking trails. Lots to do. Only suggestion is provision of a few beach chairs and towels for those of us flying into Traverse City.

A great little place to rest our heads while enjoying Lake Michigan. Enjoyed morning coffee on the balcony and sunsets down at the lake. The property manager was responsive and accommodating. We neglected to bring enough of our own kitchen supplies, but found stores nearby to get what we needed.
