About this property

Easy Entry to Chic and Cozy Condo Tucked in Wooded Dunes on Homestead Property

Perfect for two, sleeps 4, this South Village villa is everything ‘up north’ should be - Our condo is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located on the property of the Homestead Resort, but not on the Homestead rental program. You are just minutes from the beach, bike trail, groomed hiking and ski trails, and the ski village. Just down the road is Glen Arbor, Glen Lakes and the Sleeping Bear Dunes. Glen Arbor offers resort shopping and a choice of delightful restaurants. Spend an afternoon boating on Glen Lake or kayaking the Crystal River. A trip up north wouldn't be complete without the challenge of climbing the Sleeping Bear Dunes or a visit to 'fishtown,' Leland. The new Heritage trail is perfect for a bike ride. From our villa you are just a scenic drive to all the other Leelanau Peninsula treasures- orchards, vineyards, golf courses, historic sites, casino, breweries and wineries.
Check out the seasonal events to enhance your visit in any season.
Come, Be Our Guests. Tucked in the northwoods, renters comment on how private, clean, and contemporary our villa is. Easy 3-step entry welcomes you to relax in the great north woods. Start the morning with the birds and a cup of coffee on our wooden deck. After a walk through the woods, a day at the beach, a game of golf, or a drive around the peninsula visiting wineries, return to our air conditioned villa for an evening of relaxation. Visiting in the cooler months? Settle down to a fire in the fireplace and a good movie. Ready for bed, tuck yourself into comfort in our king-size sleigh bed and dream about returning.
Located between the reception center and the ski village of the property of the Homestead Resort, our villa is a short walk to Lake Michigan, the entrance to the Bay View trail and Cavanaugh’s deli.
Glen Arbor: Just 40 minutes west of Traverse City is the quaint town of Glen Arbor. Nestled on the shores of Lake Michigan, it's a destination spot in all seasons. Summer attracts Glen Lake & Lake Michigan boaters, hikers, dune climbers, cyclists and sun worshipers. The restaurants are open late luring you in with their fare. Some even have live nightly entertainment. The shop doors are open enticing you to buy everything from Cherry wine to carved cherry wood tables. Plan accordingly and you can catch an art, polka, or jazz festival. Fall brings a quietness to the town. It's a perfect time to take a color tour through the scenic hills, catch a game of golf, or walk through any number of groomed trails. Perhaps you'll spot a deer, porcupine, red fox, or eagle. Winter fun begins on the down-hill slopes and cross-country trails. When spring arrives, everyone celebrates by hunting Morrell mushrooms and spotting Trillium as they poke through the winter leaves. Come, be our guests.

* Please note that we are not a part of the Homestead Resort Program and therefore do not have access to the Resort pools and other amenities. To have access you must rent through the Homestead Resort.

Area Attractions: Throughout the year surrounding towns hold events and festivals. Check them out to enhance your stay. Discover all of the Leelanau Peninsula treasures with us. Be awed by the Sleeping Bear Dunes or Lake Michigan or marvel at the beauty of a wildflower growing along one of the many groomed hiking trails. Tucked throughout the peninsula are vineyards, wineries, golf courses, lakes and scenic lookouts. For the nostalgic is Leland, a turn-of-the century fish town still practicing its trade but expanded to welcome inquisitive visitors. Empire too boasts a maritime museum depicting the wrath and splendor of Lake Michigan travel. Why you can even find a home-made cheese shop and family drive-in theater. For the modern sophisticate is Traverse City, just east on M-72. North of TC is the casino at Peshawbeston. To the south is fine arts school at Interlochen which hosts local and international artists throughout the year. No matter where you go in the area, there is something to do and something to see. So come, be our guest and experience all that 'Up North' was meant to be.

Great Stay
Overall this was a great stay, and a good alternative to renting the very pricy rooms at the homestead. Check in was easy, instructions from the owner covered everything we needed and the location and cleanliness were excellent as well.

Hidden Gem
This beautiful little spot is the perfect place to enjoy all that the Homestead and the greater Glen Arbor area have to offer! Steps from the reception center pool and the “village” of shops/restaurant at the Homestead - everything is within reach. Lovely decor, clean and updated bath. A great getaway!!

Good, but needed some attention
It was a nice property. We did not have any liquid or bar soap and there was a boil advisory for the water (which couldn't be helped.) We went through all the towels that were provided. Homestead is a beautiful resort.
