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 charming selection of unusual yet practical dishes and glassware gives you everything you could want from breakfast to cocktails under the stars. There are several lovely spots in the woods next to the house with a grill, fire pit and a hanging straw chair to cuddle into. I loved all the French design touches, and effort put into the gardens. Still a work in progress, but what’s there is terrific. Glen Arbor is a really wonderful up north small town we have visited before, but this place is the nicest we have ever seen in the area. The beach is a little stony, so if you have kids, bring water shoes. We went to a gourmet restaurant one night, grilled out a lot, and saw magnificent sunsets all week long. Book this house, you will never want to leave!
