"My husband and I and our 2 friends had a great time staying at Turner Empire! Everything was spotlessly clean from kitchen appliances, cupboards, drawers and dishes to bedrooms and bathrooms. The rooms were nicely decorated with fun fall decorations! There wasn’t a speck of dust anywhere! There are lots of fun activities and places to explore nearby. We enjoyed hiking in the dunes area, a play in Traverse City and a fabulous dinner at Trattoria Stella! The owners are very nice! I highly...

Charming & renovated airy Train Depot turned cottage steps from Lake Michigan
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"This lovely old train depot makes an airy nest snuggled up against Sleeping Bear Bay. Steps from the very quiet and gorgeous beach, and tucked into very pretty woods not far from the Crystal River. I can’t say enough about how carefully and perfectly decorated this home is. It’s got super high ceilings, old tall ornate glass windows and hardwood floors. The owner has great taste and a real eye for mermaid and seaside art. The kitchen is spectacular, with top end brand new appliances. Very...

"My friend and I wanted to get away for the weekend to catch up, so we decided to go with this cabin. It was perfect for what we needed - super cozy, the beds were comfortable and clean. The only complaint I have as far as cleanliness was the amount of dog hair that was on the couch/living area. Otherwise it’s a great location right next to downtown! I would recommend."

This is an expansive house with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy. Book it now. You will love it. Communication with the property manager (Dylan) was excellent. Very speedy...

Incredible Glen Lake waterfront cottage with deck, firepit, water views & grill
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"Loved the location right on sandy beach, very shallow and short walk to marina to rent boat. We used the fire pit, went on rafting toys although water a bit cold this time of year. Short drive to grocery store in Glen Arbor and hiking/biking trails nearby. Went to Sleeping Bear for hiking 2 times, went to local restaurants and saw fireworks across the lake last night. The stars are so close you could almost touch the handle of the Big Dipper!"

"Property is fine. Management is not. I Sent a question Saturday before my Sunday arrival- that I needed answered BEFORE I got there. Got answer, a stupid wrong answer, on Wednesday. Yep - 4 days to answer a question. Gad a problem with misleading entry instructions. By the time they answered, I'd figured it out. ALL communication is via text - no humans"

Updated condo in Glen Arbor with Lake Michigan views, fireplace, deck, W/D
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (30)
"I think most people prefer warmer climates for spring break rather than colder ones, but our family loved the quiet beauty of the Glen Arbor/Sleeping Bear Dunes area with so few people around. The condo was cozy and fit our needs perfectly. The stairs up are definitely quite the hike, especially on your fourth trip up carrying all your family’s bags… but the view at the top of the decks is totally worth it. The condo has some visible signs of age and has clearly been well loved over the years,...
