Absolutely loved our beach vacation this year. The unit was nicely appointed, clean and comfortable. Loved the ease of being able to walk right out the beach directly from the deck. Glen arbor is our favorite summer destination and we can’t wait for next year!

Calm Mornings, Beautiful Sunsets

The unit is terrific and has all the comforts of home, except air conditioning. The weather was in the 70s when I was there and it was wonderful! Updated kitchen and baths are well done and have everything you need. The lake and beach are spectacular. All in all it was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend the location and accommodations.
