I've been staying in these cottages for 21 years now. We've rented all three of the cottages and they all have something special. The last 4-5 years we've rented the Front Cottage and have really loved the view of the Lake from the screened in porch, the dining table and our bedroom. It is "rustic", it is also one of the historical cottages on Glen Lake so we prefer the term authentic. We enjoy layinf on and swimming off of the dock, going kayaking, boating anf tubing and in the past sailing. This is truly the most beautiful Lake and these cottages are a great way to enjoy it. Always clean and Jidie is beyond helpful if you need anything!! We already have our two weeks reserved for next year!
It is also a great location to explore Leelanau County from...Glen Arbor, Sleeping Bear dunes, Fishtown in Leland, awesome hot dogs from Pleva's in Cedar, many access points/beaches to Lake Michigan, National Heritage trail for walking/running/biking, lots of wineries, and some of our favorite restaurants Market 22 and Little Traverse Inn in Maple Citu and Good Harbor Grill and Art's Bar in Glen Arbor.
