Big Glen Lake - Large Waterfront Home
About this house rental
Northern Michigan is the premier destination for your next family/friend adventure. This property sits on the west shore of Big Glen like right off the narrows and is available for weekly rentals in the summer Sunday to Sunday. The 100 feet of beachfront across M22, beckons you to the blue waterfront, where you can enjoy swimming, paddle boarding, picnics, and ending the day around the warmth of the fire pit on star lit evenings. The large lake front windows showcase Big Glen’s myriad clear, blue water & sunrise views, which can be enjoyed from inside the house or sitting on the deck drinking your coffee in the morning. Features include: 4 bedrooms, 3 Full baths, stunning stone fireplace, and large fully stocked kitchen. (see pictures, video and floor plan for more details) The location is perfection and only a short distance away from a variety of Northern Michigan activities. Sleeping Bear Dune National Park is a quick drive away which will provide hours of entertainment and wonder. The quaint town of Glen Arbor is a couple miles down the road for you to enjoy the many restaurants, shops, and galleries . In addition there are places to rent bikes, as well as kayaks for trips down the Crystal River. There are also a couple of marinas in town where you could rent a boat for the day or longer! A little bit further up the Lake Michigan coast you can stop by Port Oneida, Fishtown, and countless other places to enjoy everything Leelanau County has to offer, the beauty around every corner is breathtaking. And don't forget while walking the coast line to look for little treasures such as seaglass and petoskey stones!

This house was incredible! Glen Arbor is magical and this house offers lots of space, an incredible view of Glen Lake and easy access to its' magically blue waters as well!
Josh was extremely responsive and helpful. We are hoping to stay here for next year's race as well!

Our idea of a vacation is tons of downtime and this is a wonderful space to wind down. Morning coffee sitting on the dock, an evening drink on the deck, or a cozy night in watching a movie. It is a great location, about 2 miles into Glen Arbor, same to Sleeping Bear Dunes, many local beaches, farm stands, ice cream (so much ice cream), and water, water, water. The views are amazing. Our family of four had plenty of space, but the home could easily accommodate a couple families. We loved our time Up North and look forward to returning again.

We had a nice vacation but a few things we were not happy with. The house is on a busy road and you have to cross that road to get to the dock and lake. It’s not lakefront like the pictures show it’s across the street from the lake. The night we tried to use the grill it caught on fire and ruined everything we had on the grill, looked like it wasn’t cleaned. And the back door didn’t lock, the host tried to tell us it did and he didn’t have any problems but we couldn’t get it to lock the entire week. We stayed there. And we had eight people in our family. If no one could get that to lock there is a problem. When we told the host about the issues that we had, he tried to have an excuse for everything and acted like he really didn’t care which is very disappointing to us considering we rented that house for a week for our family. The town was cute, lake was beautiful.

Two families loved this home for our Glen Lake reunion. The accommodations were perfect, the weather not so much but the fall colors were exquisite! We were comfortable, warm and the kitchen had everything we needed for our meals.
We had such a good time, we might make this reunion an annual affair!

We loved this home. College friends with all of our kids, just perfect for us. Ability to paddle board, kayak, swim. They even provided extra boards for us to use so our entire group had enough water toys to enjoy. We also brought a jet ski, nice dock. If you have a boat the water is too shallow to get to dock, would have to moor it. We cooked a lot for a large crowd and the kitchen was well stocked with most hardware we needed. Glad I brought my huge pot to cook for a large group. Mr. May was very timely with responses. You do need to cross M22 to get to the lake, you would need to keep an eye on very young kids. The lake was perfection and the Glen Arbor location is close enough to drive to Traverse City too. I highly recommend this property.

A perfect getaway stay!
I invited my friends to come up to Glen Arbor for my 30th birthday. This home was beyond what we could have imagined! In my opinion the pictures of the living areas seem smaller than what they really are! The house was so spacious and perfect for our weekend stay. It was a little chilly by the water so we stayed on the deck and the wind was blocked perfectly! We had a picnic brunch by the water and enjoyed the fire pit to warm up. The owners have thought out all the details for you to have the perfect up north stay! Highly recommend. I wish we could have stayed another day.

This was our first trip to Northern Michigan to watch our son and friend compete in the local 1/2 Ironman. Everything about this property was rated excellent from all 12 in our party: kitchen, great room, beds and baths, basement gathering, deck, and the lakeside park-like area with dock. We also loved the area with its location so close to Glen Arbor, Sleeping Bear, Leland and the surrounds. We all plan to come back and will book again if the group is large enough.

Josh was great to work with. Very responsive and informative. The house was lovely with a large kitchen for my grown family. We loved Glen Lake and rented a boat for a few days to enjoy the swimming and exploring. Would definitely rent this house again it was a great week!
