About this property

Cozy Waterfront Cottage w/ Kayaks on Big Glen Lake!

  • Enjoy this classic summer cottage on the south shore of Big Glen Lake and all the nearby activities that Glen Arbor and Leelanau Couty have to offer: Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, hiking, swimming, road cycling, mountain biking, canoeing/kayaking, fishing, golf, tennis, pickleball, shopping, wine tasting, and much more! Relax on the outdoor patio and enjoy stunning views of the clear blue water during the day and epic sunsets in the evening.

    The highlight of the property is its 67 feet of private frontage on Big Glen Lake, with shallow water perfect for swimming that extends hundreds of feet out. A front patio with dining table/umbrella and beach chairs offers the perfect outdoor space to gather and relax near the shore at any time of day. Two kayaks provide the opportunity to explore the blue lake beyond at your leisure.

    The property can comfortably accommodate groups of up to 6 people. The main floor includes the bathroom, kitchen, small dining area, and a living area with sofabed (queen), armchair, loveseat, and television. The second floor is divided into two separate sleeping areas (queen bed and double bed) and a small walk-in closet. An unfinished, but spacious, Michigan basement provides great storage space for bikes and other outdoor equipment to keep them protected from the elements.

    Other amenities/highlights include a gas and charcoal grill, portable outdoor fireplace, floatation devices, free WiFi, and 5G mobile coverage from cell tower in Glen Arbor!

    Perfect for spring/summer fun or fall colors.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Location of this house is fantastic - just a few minutes to cute Glen Arbor! New outdoor deck area was nice to sit outside. Unfortunately for us, the Canadian wildfire smoke impacted our stay but we would stay here again. Host was great with communication and any questions we had about the house.
