Top Crystal River Hotel Reviews
Condo with lake views
8/10 Good
"We loved the location and views from the porch. Main complaint is that the pullout couch was so old it was unusable as a bed & not comfortable as a couch. Place could also use a deep cleaning."
GOOD VIBES LAKEFRONT CONDO
10/10 Excellent
"This was a perfect location. We enjoyed making trips into town and spending time on the beach. The kids loved finding stones and building castles. The condo was well stocked with fluffy towels and the beds were comfy. It was so nice to watch the sunset on the balcony. Robin was super responsive and gave us all the information we needed. It was a great family getaway."
Homestead condo, Beautiful View of Lake MI & Manitou Island
10/10 Excellent
"Great stay and super nice host. Thank you!"
Bayfront condo with lake & bay views, deck, 2 fireplaces, private washer/dryer
10/10 Excellent
"This was a wonderful place to stay. Very clean, comfortable beds, and well stocked kitchen. Views from the balcony are beautiful, including sunsets. The description is accurate, except the walking distance to the Crystal River. I do not recommend this condo if you want to access the Homestead beach. We messaged the host and asked how far and difficult walking to the beach would be. We were told it was a "short walk down from the hillside toward the shoreline. It’s still quite close, generally around 5–10 minutes depending on your pace...The walk itself isn’t very long, but since the property sits on a ridge overlooking the lake, there are some stairs and a bit of an incline/decline involved." The walk is actually just shy of one mile. The condo is not just on a hill, it is on a bluff with a very steep hill. There is parking close to the beach, but you need a parking pass which Homestead would not provide because we did not book through them. Otherwise, the condo was great and we recommend it."
NEW! 1-bedroom condo on the Crystal River at the Homestead w/Lake MI access
8/10 Good
"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo had all the necessary things to make the stay comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped and everything functioned properly. I would stay again but thankfully the temperature was cooler as there is no air conditioning. Also a suggestion if possible, better bathroom ventilation - the fan light combo does very little to pull moisture from the room."
2026 Remodeled waterfront 1 bedroom escape on Lake Michigan in Glen Arbor MI
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful vacation at Great Lakes # 5! We were able to utilize the kayaks, beach chairs, and tubes provided. The location is perfect on the Crystal River & steps away from Lake Michigan. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches and sunset every day of our trip. The condo is very clean and freshly updated."
Riverfront condo with beach access to lake, fireplace, washer/dryer & cable
8/10 Good
"The location is very nice, beautiful river the beach and dune is super close. Communication excellent, check in great. Access to trails and River perfect and place was clean. A few things were broken like blinds and loose dishwasher, neighbors above very loud but all in all I had a great time and would do it again. This area is so beautiful, a trip here is well worth it and this place is pretty reasonable considering the location,"
Condo in Glen Arbor with Lake Michigan sunset views, fireplace, deck, washer & dryer
10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed our weekend in Glen Arbor. Beautiful view from an elevated condo. There’s definitely a lot of steps up and down, so you will get your exercise staying here. You get both unit 25 & 26. We had an issue checking in as the key did not work in the lock. Housekeeping showed up 20 minutes later to let us in and told us to just keep the place unlocked, which wasn’t a big deal to us, but might be for others. Owner should really invest in an electronic keypad for the door. The unit does not include access to The Homestead pool. You can get to the beach by walking through Sundance. There’s a small grocery store with incredible pizza and fresh coffee every morning within The Homestead property. There is no A/C, which we knew before renting. Keeping door walls and windows open creates a great cross breeze. Also, there are no ceiling fans, even though it’s listed in the description. There are plenty of other fans in every room. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would return."
Waterfront condo with stunning views in Glen Arbor. Air conditioning.
10/10 Excellent
"Awesome location! Beautiful beach. Amazing view from the balcony! 100% great week!"
