Little Glen Lake

Great house on a great lake near to Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes National Park. The lake is connected to the larger Glen Lake if you need to see a bigger lake. Many nice sites to see and beaches in the area.

What a wonderful welcome and stay!

We can’t say enough good things about the property manager, Michelle. Wow! We got notification when the property was ready, actually early. She communicated with us throughout the eeek to make sure we had a great stay. She made it super easy! The house is immaculate, spacious, sunny and beautiful! The beach area is just steps away. We’ve stayed at other homes where you had to walkover grass and debris to get down to the beach-not here-great walkway down to the dock and sand. You can easily supervise kids from the deck. The water was actually warm, even in June, partly due to the long shallows that run out from the beach. We had paddle boards and kayaks which were so fun to use. Truly made the perfect family vacation for us-we sure hope to book back here next year. PS we have been Glen lake vacationers for over 3 years with all of our other years on Big Glen. Little Glen was wonderful. We are not boaters so shallower water was a plus for us. There is swimmer’s itch in the lake, there almost always is. We toweled dry when we got out of the water and none of us got SI.

Stunning rental!

This home and location are absolutely beautiful! Our family went for a long weekend and had everything we needed to enjoy a perfect vacation! The property manager made sure everything went smoothly during check-in and made themselves available if there were any problems (which there weren't!). The views, the crystal clear lake, proximity to the downtown area with a grocery store and great restaurants all made for a fantastic long weekend. We are excited to visit again in the future!
