Glen Arbor vacation
Absolutely awesome time! Gary & Carolyn are fantastic host, very friendly! The townhouse was immaculate. If you’re new visitor to Glen Arbor, they put together this huge booklet of things to see and do. The view is perfect, sit on the deck, relax & watch the world go by! Two of the bedrooms overlook the lake, lay in bed & listen to the waves. What made it even better the weather was perfect for mid/late June. Also it’s pet friendly, my dog made a new girl friend with their dog. Spent a week playing together, LOL!

Fantastic Stay!
Our week at Woodsmere was everything we had hoped it would be—relaxing and quiet. The townhome was clean and comfortable; it was the most well-appointed vacation home we have ever stayed in. The private beach was perfect for us and our two old dogs to enjoy, and we spent each evening on the deck luxuriating in the sun and views of the water. We would highly recommend to anyone interested in spending time in the Glen Arbor area and hope to return next summer!

Glen Arbor vacation home
The Glen Arbor Vacation Home is absolutely beautiful and matches exactly the description on the site. Gary is an amazing host, and it is apparent that he takes great care of his property. The home is beautiful and everything is in great working order, clean and comfortable. The views of Sleeping Bear Bay are amazing and it is just steps away from the home. We greatly enjoyed our stay and we look to return on our next trip to the area. Exceptional experience and vacation home!! Dan Rice

Perfection
Every aspect of our vacation exceeded our expectations. The townhome was lovely and supplied with all that we would possibly need. The owners were excellent communicators and incredibly thoughtful. The view was beautiful, and we all enjoyed our peaceful stretch of beach...especially our dog! We are hoping to make it an annual family vacation. Perfection!

Paradise on Lake Michigan
Our family has stayed in a number of places in northern Michigan but this one may be our favorite. The view of the lake and access to a private beach were priceless. We also enjoyed taking the kayaks and paddleboards out — a great way to experience the shoreline on a calm day. You also can't beat the location. We were within a few minutes' drive of village of Glen Arbor, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, hiking trails and other attractions. The house was clean, well-appointed and equipped with anything and everything one might need. The beds were extremely comfortable and two bedrooms afforded their own balcony with a lake view. We never tired of sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee watching a spectacular sunrise. My husband and I and our adult children highly recommend this house as an ideal spot for a relaxing, memorable family vacation.

Property has an amazing beach and close to town, but is in a very private, secluded location. We look forward to staying again next year!

Beautiful lake Michigan stay
Beautiful property on Lake Michigan. Well stocked kitchen as well as water equipment. First time we travelled with our two cats, they loved the natural grasses on the property. Hosts were extremely kind and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would return.

Great place to stay!
This is a very welcoming townhouse with a good level of amenities. The owner (on premises) is unobtrusive, very cordial and helpful with any questions. If you want to be on Lake Michigan and close to Glen Arbor, this is a great choice!

Everything We Hoped For and More
Perfect location on a quiet - breathtakingly gorgeous beach! Delightful condo with many thoughtful and personal touches by the hosts who take pains to keep the property beautiful and spare no effort to ensure the comfort and enjoyment of their guests. Beautiful views of the Manitou Islands and spectacular sunsets only minutes from the Sleeping Bear Dunes and Glen Arbor, MI. Will definitely return!

Glen Arbor gem
The property was as described except the beach was even closer than expected and there are no steep stairs to get to it.The views and the lake were beautiful. The home is well off the road and through the woods so no road noise, very serene. Carolyn has a hummingbird feeder by the lower deck and they were great fun to watch. There are chairs and kayaks already in place on the beach.The little village of Glen Arbor has several restaurants and shops, Glenn Haven and Sleeping Bear are very close and Leland and Sutton's Bay aren't far. Gary has a well prepared and indexed book in the unit that answers almost any question about the unit and the area. Our stay was late August. & early Sept. 2018.

Great location and great amenities
The location and beach is great as expected. The surprise came when you walked inside. The kitchen was fully stocked and everything worked. Comfortable beds and a relaxing living area. There were small things that added to the experience such as phone charging stations in the bedrooms and some logs, including a starter log, at the beach.

My husband and I spent a wonderful fall weekend at this lake front home. Trust me it is the best view of Lake Michigan, you won't want to leave. The home is comfortable and well appointed. We cooked our dinners in, as you won't want to leave and miss the sunsets. We will definitely book again.
