Very nice, modern cabin with all the amenities. Was very pleased to see how well equipped the kitchen was. Lovely setting with a large, private yard. We enjoyed our stay in this lovely cabin in a beautiful part of the country.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the cabin, the peaceful yard, and all the amenities. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back to Glen Arbor again soon!
Everything was exactly as pictured - and clean. Small bag of coffee for next morning and some paper towel/dish cloths would be a nice addition!

A beautiful house at a great location. It was the perfect home base for our days up north. We had busy days exploring the amazing area and were always glad to come “home” to our comfy stay. The kids loved the bunk beds! We all enjoyed the open concept. Perfect for watching movies, playing cards, and sharing meals. Wonderful memories were made.

Just the perfect getaway. Great place to enjoy nature.
New, modern home with all amenities. Wooded, quiet location about 10-15 min from many Glen Arbor restaurants, grocery store, and Sleeping Bear Dunes activities. Great base for our 5 adult, first time family vacation in Michigan. Excellent guidebook, too!
We only stayed one night but would def go back for more. The house is beautiful, clean, convenient to sleeping bear and glen arbor. Super cozy beds and the kids loved the bunk room!

We loved our stay in this new house! Everything was bright and clean. The kitchen is well stocked, the beds are comfortable, and it’s so private and quiet. We loved the proximity to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Glen Arbor. We would definitely stay here again!
Beautiful property surrounded by scenic woods with lots of natural lighting. Well organized and cozy. Close to downtown Empire and downtown Glen Arbor with lots of different nearby beaches and of course the dunes. Host communicated everything clearly. Great place to stay!

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay! It was a pleasure to host you and your group! We hope you will think of us for your future stays in Glen Arbor!
This was a trip for our family to enjoy a float down Platte River….all my kids (grown and teenagers) were impressed with this place! Clean, simple and trendy decor, loved the privacy of the yard. Location was stellar!! Close to Glen Arbor, Platte River. Would highly recommend to anyone
We have been to this area many times in the past and have always loved the calming, relaxing scenery that comes with this cute little town. This home allows you to take in all of the views with the large windows in every room. While we were only there for a long weekend stay, we wish we could have stayed for longer! This home was spotless upon arrival, the check in / check out process was easy, and the hosts were incredible throughout our entire stay. We will definitely be coming back and hopefully staying at this home in the future!
Wow-incredible property, and incredible hosts, thank you!
I’m not going to lie, upon driving through the gravel road I was skeptical. But once I turned into the driveway and pulled up to this beautiful home, parked the car and walked inside I knew not one detail was overlooked. From the incredible hosts down to the pristine property to stay for my family of seven was incredible. I can’t thank you enough. .
