Welcome to Little Glen Lake

(Backyard 👆)

Our family's historic home is now being rented for those looking for an authentic "Up North" Michigan vacation with a personal touch.  

The property offers three dwellings: a large farmhouse, a small cottage, and an offset garage apartment.  This gives options for families and groups of all sizes.


The backyard offers 100 feet of exclusive lake access, while a short drive or bike ride takes you to Lake Michigan's pristine beaches, Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes, or shopping and dining in nearby Glen Arbor or Empire. 

The Seven Sisters on Glen Lake promises a local's experience at an affordable rate.

The Backyard

Having this beautiful lake right out your backdoor is the best part of this property.  

 

Take one of our paddle boards or kayak out to explore, or dock your own boat or jet ski for ultimate access to Little Glen Lake and connecting Big Glen Lake with its signature blue and turquoise striped waters.  

Both feature white sand bottoms and crystal clear water.

This is a view to fall in love with.

In the evenings, have dinner out back (on Grandma's finest sturdy plastic dining set) while gazing at Alligator Hill, make s'mores for dessert in the lakeside fire pit, and watch the truly remarkable sunsets from the captain's chair of the antique pontoon boat which serves as a floating lounge.  

The sun doesn't set till almost 10pm in the summers giving you ample time to enjoy everything the property and the area have to offer.
