Summary: 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.

Summary: 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.

Summary: Great time. Golfing swimming kayaking hiking outdoors and reconnecting with family

Summary: This is an exceptional property if you want to experience both Glen Arbor and Lake Michigan. The front porch provides a super view of the lake, complete with sunsets (at least in July). Check-in was easy, and a fresh flower bouquet was very welcoming. The master bedroom and bath are modern, spacious and well equipped with linens, towels and fine toiletries. The great room includes a dining table that easily seats 6. There is also a table for four which served us nicely for jigsaw puzzles. We didn’t need the A/C the week we were there, so I can’t comment on its effectiveness. Windows and sliders worked well. The 2nd bedroom is communal, with a double bed and a twin-sized bunk bed. The 2nd bathroom is a bit small for more than 2 people, but otherwise is well equipped. The location can’t be beat: The shared 60-foot lake frontage was never crowded (the largest gatherings were at sunset), and it’s a short walk to all of Glen Arbor. It’s also about a half mile from the Sleeping Bear Heritage trail for easy bicycle access. We were afraid that we would get a lot of nose from Boondocks, but that was never a problem. Noise from neighbors was not an issue the week we were there. I would definitely recommend this property for a group of adults wanting some beautiful solitude while staying close to Glen Arbor.

Summary: We can't say enough great things about our stay at George's house. It was in the best location - walking distance to downtown and steps to Lake MI beach. The house was well equipped with everything we need and then some. We made some lasting family memories that we are very grateful for. We hope to return again next year.

Summary: George was wonderful to work with. Helpful and prompt. The property is the perfect combination of Up North charm and modern convenience. We loved the sunsets and access to the beach while being able to walk to town. The house is well stocked, extremely clean and the beds are comfortable! We can’t wait to go back!
