4 Bedroom House in Glen Arbor

Must be booked Sunday-Sunday in summer months.
Enjoy Glen Arbor in this one-of-a-kind 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom historical home that sleeps 12. This home once belonged to the founder of Glen Arbor and is a little piece of Glen Arbor history. "Barefootin on M22" is an easy walk to a beautiful Lake Michigan beach down a quiet dirt road. The two-level home faces East, located on River Rd. (M-22).
The living area on the main floor is big enough for a large group. DVD, WIFI, entire house stereo with iPod docking. The full kitchen (with dishwasher) is off the living area. There are three large bedrooms on the main floor, two with one queen bed and one with a king. Spacious, open-style sleeping quarters upstairs have two queen beds and two twins, plus a TV. Two bathrooms are on the main level and one upstairs. Remodeled with a "green" mindset, this house has low-flow bathroom fixtures, CFLs, and recycling bins provided. It is a perfect fall location too!
Outside, enjoy the gorgeous deck and patio area, perfect for a get-together around the fire pit at the end of the day. There is frontage on the Crystal River just across the street from the home with four shared kayaks provided. Easy walk to lovely Lake Michigan! A gas grill and fire pit are also provided. Bocce ball and croquet are provided for outdoor fun. Board games are in the house for those rare rainy days. This home has central air conditioning.
Staying at this property makes enjoying Leelanau easy. It is a 5-minute drive to the Sleeping Bear Dunes climb. A 5-minute walk to Sunset Point Beach on Lake Michigan, with great views of North and South Manitou Islands. M22 is a 1/2 mile into the heart of Glen Arbor where you can dine, shop, and even play mini-golf! Walk down the street and rent a bike to tour the area. Enjoy kayaking on the Crystal River.
Well-behaved dogs are allowed, and their owners must clean up after them.

Review Score:   6
Summary: Okay overall but "a few feet literally" from a very busy noisy highway (not completely unexpected) and noisy bridge replacement project (completely unexpected) with very noisy large water pump 24/7. Both very noisy. Spacious and very clean except for the mice and poop; we caught 2 with available traps but there were more. Communication (by text) was mostly nonexistent, took days if ever, essentially unresponsive to simple requests. Some issues with lights. No kitchen windows opened -- needed for fresh air when cooking. Property needs a specific named Host with a cell phone that is responsive like every VRBO or similar we've ever stayed at. Host by committee/office means no one is responsible or responsive. Otherwise liked the location close to Glen Arbor and gorgeous beach!
