About this property

Glen Arbor – on Sleeping Bear Bay

This comfortable cottage features spectacular views of Sleeping Bear Bay and South Manitou Island from both inside and on the large deck. The shared beach is just a few steps away.

The open floor plan and many windows make it the perfect place to relax on those "weather days" and the large deck provides plenty of room to stretch out when the sun is shining. Even though you are in the heart of busy Glen Arbor, the private road means you will feel far away from the hustle.

With the beach out front, the quiet road, and all that Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore has to offer just steps away, this is the perfect location for your next family vacation.

Please disregard the snow in the photos – it'll be gone by the time you arrive!

The cottage has a master bedroom with a king bed and a large master bath with both a shower and tub. The front bedroom has a double bed and a bunk bed to accommodate four.

Very nice cottage

My husband and I stayed at George's cottage for one week. The location was wonderful in terms of being able to walk right into town to get whatever we needed, beach access was right on the other side of the looped driveway, and the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail was only a few minutes away via bike. The cottage was impeccably clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the ability to do laundry and live 'the simple life' was a wonderful gift. We enjoyed the sunsets from both the beach AND right off the deck. I rated the neighborhood four stars, and this is why: while we strictly adhered to the courtesy of 'no noise at an unreasonable hour' in consideration of the permanent residents on the road, two other houses filled with multiple families with children ranging from ages 1-10 years did not. This is not at all the fault of the cottage owners, but I wanted to include in my review that the master bedroom IS located right next to the neighbor's driveway, where we were woken up each morning between 7:30 am and 9:00 am to screaming children bouncing multiple basketballs. Across the street, the children visiting enjoyed honking the golf cart horn at all hours of the day and well into the evening. Perhaps we were unlucky on that front and it is normally quiet the rest of the year. I figured it was worth mentioning if someone is seeking a child-free trip. George's cottage was a pleasure to stay in otherwise. My reason for rating communication at four stars was due to a woman slowly driving by the back of the house after a visit with the neighbor, stopping at the end of the driveway and loudly dragging the empty garbage pail down to the garage without so much as a knock or a hello. An email or text would have been appreciated, reminding us that the owner preferred the empty garbage pail pulled in by the garage. Everyone else on the road left their garbage out, and we accidentally overlooked this instruction, for which I apologize. Nobody wants to feel like they're being monitored while on vacation. We rightfully forgot to drag the garbage in, but this felt invasive and unnecessary. Hopefully, my review will be taken as constructive criticism for the benefit of future visitors. Thank you for the use of your cottage. We made wonderful memories there, and it was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of our own lives (three children, five dogs, two businesses, etc) to enjoy some quality time together in the beauty of Glen Arbor.

Beautiful Week.

This is our 2d time here. Property is very clean, well stocked, location is perfect. The beach is a few steps away and we had a nice swim, walked to Glen Arbor for dinner and groceries, put our kayaks in at the beach (and elsewhere); biked to the trail and rode North and South. Perfect in every way.
