Splendid sunsets

Our family of four and grandma had a wonderful stay here. Close to all the good things to do and cozy enough to stay in during the rain. Really appreciated the well stocked kitchen and games provided.

Amazing stay on Little Glen

What a beautiful cottage and a great value!! Property is right on water with easy to access dock and kayaks. Cottage was clean and so well stocked with the comforts of home.

Glen Lake Gem

The location and home were wonderful for our week stay. The cottage is directly across the road from Glen Lake with access and amenities accommodate a boat if desired. The home is great for family or small group getaways. Would recommend if you want to experience the up North on the lake..

Great getaway for rest and rejuvenation

The cottage is nicely remodeled and cozy. It was a perfect getaway for my husband and I. We enjoyed sitting on the dock enjoying the lake and sunsets. We are thinking about booking next year.

We had an excellent week at Tammy and William’s lovely cottage. It was very clean, cozy, and well-appointed. The perfect set up for two adults and two kids (though we could have fit two more if needed). Communication was great as well.

Beautiful spot on Little Glen Lake

We had a wonderful stay. William was very easy to contact and responsive. The house was a great size for our family (2 adults, 2 kids), and we all loved the dock and using the kayaks. The house was clean and comfortable.

Perfect family getaway

We loved staying in this home. It had everything we needed and perfect views. The only thing I would say wasn't perfect was the bed. Ours was pretty firm and my back hurt but my husband loved it. So it is just a preference. We had a few hiccups related to weather and such. Great communication and would definitely stay again.
