Beautiful property for spending time on the Big Glen lake which is awesome for all manner of water sports and lake relaxation. House was well provisioned. Easy checkin and checkout. Hosts are easy to work with and were helpful through our stay. Kitchen could use a can opener and some larger cookware. :)

We had a fantastic week at the Annex and would highly recommend! The cottage was clean and comfortable and the view cannot be beat. The hosts had great communication and were very helpful. We loved how close we were to downtown Glen Arbor, sleeping bear dunes and Lake Michigan. We hope to come back again soon!

Great Vacay Spot with our dogs

The living area was great and open with a spectacular view of the lake! It was very comfortable for our 6 friends and our dogs to hang out together. The kitchen area is very nice and the island area was very useful! The bedrooms were very nicely sized as well. The best part was watching the sunrise over the lake from bed! The bathrooms were clean but the shower is VERY small!! This is completely out of the control of the property owner but two of us braved getting in the water and both of us got Swimmer’s Itch. When searching Glen Lake afterwards it seems it is a known problem of the association. Make sure to rinse off IMMEDIATELY after getting out of the water. I did sooner than my friend and didn’t get it as bad as she did. Our dogs swam a lot and we rinsed them right away each time and so far we haven’t seen an issue with them (fingers crossed).
