Quick walk to a charming quiet beach. It’s like staying in an IKEA show room — which let’s face it — we’ve all dreamed about. Our only concern would be the ladder up to the loft. Seemed a bit precarious. ##### Sally L.

The kitchen could use another large pot and pans were scratched up. Best part, falling asleep to the croakers and nighttime noises! ##### Sandra C. ### 8/10 Good #### Sara E. 14 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great House- close to beach and Glen Arbor Great, newer clean house and very close location to Glen Arbor and Lake MI. Nice kayaks for the lake. One small thing to mention- close to a residential owner who didn’t seem to happy we were there. We were respectful and kind. Just had to be considerate when outside. Lots of ants in the kitchen area. But that happens sometimes. Definitely not a deal breaker. All in all great spacious house! ##### Sara E.

Kids had fun sleeping in the loft but take care when using ladder- we had no issues. The outdoor shower was a fun experience after a long day at the beach. The outdoor fire pit was perfect for relaxation and stargazing. We will definitely rent again! ##### Jenny R.

Reviewer Comments: More like a palace then an animal shelter that the name implies. It's spacious and comfortably remodeled, a very nicely equipped kitchen and dining area that we used for all meals to avoid the expense of eating out. Would urge owners to relocate the key box from the porch post to the door since if the key happens to fall while replacing or opening the box it can fall into dense undergrowth below porch deck causing annoying search, particularly after dark. Really enjoyed our visit and hope to return next year if rent doesn't increse. ##### Ted J.

The location is very central; walking distance to the Crystal River, Lake Michigan and downtown Glen Arbor. Plus an easy drive to various trailheads.

The outdoor shower is a plus when returning from the beach (a short walk down the road.)to rinse off and keep the house sand-free. Only items missing was shampoo/soap and enough Toilet paper to last our stay. This may be improved upon when there is a longer stay booked into the property.
