Great location, idyllic cabin vibe
This was a great spot for a long weekend with kids. It’s a short walk to the dune climb and a quick drive to several Lake Michigan beaches and restaurants in Glen Arbor and Empire. The property itself was great for two families, with lots of room to sleep and play at the big table overlooking the water. The location on Little Glen Lake is perfect - shallow, clear water very far out. We enjoyed the kayaks, canoe, fire pit, and tether ball pole. Easy check in and minimal check out tasks. We would definitely stay here again!

This house is super cute and unique. If you stay read the houses history they wrote up on the wall and be sure to ck out all the original artwork! A beautiful yard and the water is clear and sandy bottom our 10 year old loved to run through the shallow water. Walking distance to the dunes which is always fun! The host was very responsive as well! Totally would stay again!
