Dogs are allowed with an additional fee, with a maximum of 2 dogs. Please be advised that it is absolutely imperative for all renters to keep their dogs on a leash at all times.

Please take your pup with you or kennel them when you leave the home. We cannot have lonely barking dogs left at our property. Please be considerate and clean up after your pet.
DOCK – You can expect the dock to be available for use Memorial Weekend through Labor Day Weekend. Please only use the dock for 15-minute loading and unloading of passengers.

There are no protective dock bumpers to prevent potential boat-docking issues.

Newly renovated house on little Glen
The house was comfortable and accommodated our family well. Kitchen was fairly well equipped.
Lots of noise next door on the weekend.
Would have been nice to have kayaks on the premises.
Too far for our family to access our favorite spots in Leelanau county.
Management was great and very responsibd
