Two Cottages on Little Glen Lake

A/C and Dishwasher in main house new for 2023! MAIN HOUSE & GUEST HOUSE ON LITTLE GLEN LAKE! The main house has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath and the guest house offers an open concept with 4 single beds and a bathroom with a shower. There is an additional full bathroom off the annex for overflow. Stay connected with free wifi. Both have fully equipped kitchens for your family meals. The main house has a nice large deck to enjoy the spectacular waterfront views. A mooring buoy is available for your boat. Aardvark Cottages are located minutes from some of the best vacation experiences your family will ever enjoy. The famous Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes are only a few minutes away to hike and explore. If you love to bike, the new Heritage Trail offers 16 miles of paved trails with multiple jumping on and off points. The day tripper in you will love to explore Leelanau County's many neighboring towns that have wonderful shopping and dining experiences.

Family VACA
It's a nice space and really loved the separate cabin with twin beds. Overall very good. Decor is pretty dated. Main family room doesn't have good comfortable seating for watching TV. Windows should be wiped of cob webs!

Fun getaway at Glen Lake
It was a lovely stay on the water. Our family loves the area, and this quiet simple cottage was a great home base. Loved sitting on the deck and enjoying the lake breeze. The extra space in the guess cottage for Grandpa was a bonus!

Wonderful Stay!!
We loved the property, both Glens and of course the surrounding area for biking, hiking, climbing, boating, fishing and just relaxing in the yard and dock taking in the views and sunsets. Note, most of the beds were firm to very firm. Looking forward to staying here again!
