About this property

Bears Den- Hot Tub and AC. Short walk to Glen Lake. 35min to Crystal Mountain

  • Nestled in Glen Arbor township, this delightful house boasts 6 bedrooms including 1 king bed, 4 queen beds, and 2 twin over full sized bunk beds. With 4.5 bathrooms, all guests will feel right at home. The property also features an outdoor 8 person hot tub, propane fire pit, EV charger A/C and heat, and necessary toiletries. We think our place will help you experience everything the Glen Lake area has to offer. While not “lakefront,” a Glen Lake public access beach is a .25 mile walk down a gravel road. Fill the supplied wagon with included chairs and head down to the lake ( see photos). Visitors will enjoy visiting nearby Glen arbor ( 4.5 miles), crystal river (2.5 miles) sleeping bear dunes (8.1 miles), boat rentals on Glen Lake ( try On The Narrows Marina), and sleeping bear national park ( all around), and skiing at Crystal Mountain. Hikes abound on countless trails through the sleeping bear national park ( nps.gov) or bike rides of the infamous sleeping bear heritage trail. Mountain bikers can explore Palmer woods forest reserve ( 2m). The basement is fully equipped with a game room ( ping pong and foosball) and a separate movie room.
    Or relax on the patio and grill out. Finish it off with s’mores on a propane fire pit overlooking 12 acres of wildlife. Walk the pictured 0.6 mile loop on the property through the woods. Don’t forget to say hello to our resident bald eagle and 5 point buck.

This place was beautiful except for the couches were torn up. It would be nice to sit on something that has no wear and tear. The property is beautiful. The beach is breathtaking.

Marathon weekend

This was a good location that was central to neighboring towns. We were a family with children. The house accommodated most of our needs. The one thing I would suggest is at least a 2nd tv. With 10 people and some were children it was limited to what and when we shared the tv. House was clean and great communication with host.

Beautiful modern home located out in nature. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle, this is the place! The lake is just a very short walk away.

We had an excellent stay! The property appears to be fairly new, was extremely clean and the hosts were excellent communicators. We were a party of 10 with 2 couples and their adult children. We enjoyed spending time on the beautiful patio, complete with a fireplace table, grill and a very large hot tub. Spacious kitchen with all the amenities and plenty of beds and bathrooms! Highly recommend!

Great house! We stayed with 10 people plus our 2 pups. The only downside is temperature on 2nd floor was warmer than 1st floor.
