Dunneden Carriage House and Private Garden Age 50+ Rental for 2 Adults

2 Night Minimum for 2 Age 50+ Adults. Open May to November.

Dunneden Carriage House is located in the heart of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore in Leelanau County, in Glen Arbor Township just 3 miles outside of the town of Glen Arbor on a country road just far enough away from the noisy crowds for a private and peaceful getaway, but close enough to join in all the activities when desired.

The 2 story apartment is completely furnished, including linens, well appointed, air conditioned, has Wifi and premium cable TV service. The upstairs bedroom is equipped with a king size bed and bathroom with shower. Off the bedroom is a lovely balcony to enjoy morning coffee or meals during warm weather.

A small charcoal grill is provided for grilling and a stocked outdoor fire pit to enjoy an evening fire. All you have to bring with you are your clothes and groceries. Coffee and tea are provided.

The Foothills Café is just a 5 minute walk from property where you can enjoy one of their famous breakfasts or lunch. If you would like a walk on the beach or watch spectacular sunsets over Lake Michigan, there is public beach access at the end of the road 3.25 miles away. Also provided for beachgoer guests are beach chairs and beach towels. If you enjoy biking the Heritage Trail, the trail crosses the road 2.5 miles from the Carriage House.

If you are new to the area a good plan is to arrive, relax with a cool beverage and peruse all the local brochures and maps provided for guests to familiarize yourselves with all the options available for your time here in Leelanau County.

Beautiful garden
Great location with a beautiful garden. Large bedroom upstairs with a balcony and linens were very comfortable. Full kitchen and owner had fresh flowers and iced lemon water for us. Our first time staying in the Glen Arbor area. Would definitely rent again!

Garden Tranquility
This home is the perfect respite for two. There is beautiful side garden to this Carriage House where you can read, meditate or relax by the garden pond.There is a small grill and everything you need for it; a fire pit with wood supplied. Home has a well appointed kitchen with a TV room with many channels. Large comfortable upstairs bedroom with a balcony that's perfect for morning coffee and birdwatching. Host Kathleen provides niceties that make you feel so welcome such as flowers on the table, little snacks made in Glen Arbor, tea with honey and coffee. She also provided beach towels and chairs and lovely bath towels. Information and books about the area. Rooms are spotless and organized. Great location to Glen Arbor were you can enjoy dining, shopping, kayaking, bike rentals and a winery. Close to Heritage Bike Trail, Crystal River,. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Seashore, Glen Haven Beach/ Boat museum, and Beautiful Lake Michigan! Great Stay

Lovely private guesthouse
Beautiful outdoor gardens and rooftop patio. Quiet, very clean, well-maintained, and nicely appointed with everything you need for a home away from home near the water. Close to Glen Arbor and all of the recreational areas. Definitely recommend.
