Surrounded by trees, with a view of the lake beyond, this secluded hide-away is everything you could hope for in all 4 seasons. If you have a cool dog, bring it along. \* All guests at this property must be at least 25, or accompanied by a parent or guardian. See below for pet fee info. The Space: The Place The newly renovated main living area has loads of natural light and a wood burning fireplace, large viewing windows, and a furniture set-up that makes for great socializing and relaxing chill time. The dining area is positioned next to a large window as is the height adjustable work station. The large smart TV makes for great movie viewing. The main bedroom has a sunrise facing slider and a new luxury king bed. The closet has vintage wallpaper (that is a sure-fire crowd pleaser). The second bedroom has a new luxury queen bed. 2 Full bathrooms on the main level. One with shower and tub, one with walk-in shower. On the lower level, (still a work in progress this summer) there is a half bath and two trundle beds. Also on the lower level is a ping pong table and a TV area for gaming, and a game table for 4\. There is a garage available for storing your bike, kayak, paddleboard or any other toys you bring along. There is also paved parking for a boat trailer with easy access. The deck is set up for viewing the scenery along with outdoor dining for six. An elevated outdoor firepit gives the feeling of being on top of the world. An additional patio offers another chilling and grilling spot. We have a flat top grill available for you to use! Please note this home does not have direct lake access, but it is just steps away from a DNR boat ramp. Guest Access: Welcome to northern Michigan, where our wintertime weather can swing from glorious to ferocious in a flash. Each of our properties has snow removal service scheduled to plow with each snowfall amounting to at least 3 inches of snow. If the vehicle you bring is not 4-Wheel or All-Wheel Drive, please be aware of the potential risks accessing the property when snow is present. This home's driveway is very steep. So please take this into consideration. The Neighborhood: Explore Alligator Hill right out the back door, or within a five minute drive, you can climb the famous Dune Climb, visit Glen Haven beach, or hike/bike the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail. Rent a boat at The Narrows marina on Big Glen or launch your own at the public launch on Little Glen Lake - both are a short walk away. Glen Arbor and Lake Michigan are 2.5 miles down the road. This property is unique in that is provides a close to nature vibe that flows from a park like setting and a large elevated lot with expansive views of the surrounding area. Its close to everything except your neighbor. Other Things to Note: Please Note: All guests staying at this property must be 25 or older unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. This will be verified after booking confirmation. There is a non-refundable credit card processing fee applied to all reservations. If the reservation is 14 days or longer there will be a required mid-stay clean. This is also available upon request for a shorter length of stay. There will be a dog fee of $145, with a maximum of 2 dogs allowed. Please take your pup with you or kennel them when you leave the home. We cannot have sad, lonely barking dogs bothering our neighbors. Please be considerate and clean up after your pet. Pets must be secured on the premises or on a leash at all times. Golden Swan requires each guest to pay a damage waiver fee. For this property, the fee is $69 and provides our guests with accidental damage coverage up to $600\. If the amount of damage exceeds $600, or if the damage is found to have occurred with malicious intent, Golden Swan retains the right to seek damages beyond that amount. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Optional golf privileges - Cycling nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,700 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/85000000/84250000/84249200/84249168/fc818bd3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Downtown home in Glen Arbor with central AC, fireplace & washer/dryer Glen Arbor - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 9.0 Wonderful 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=84249168&PinnedHotelID=84249168&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38280000/38274800/38274782/54e9ab71.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Arbor Pines - Vacation near downtown Glen Arbor Glen Arbor - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi 10 Exceptional 21 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=38274782&PinnedHotelID=38274782&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99790000/99781800/99781726/3266c4da.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Colorful, Cozy Cottage on Pearl Lake Lake Ann - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 37 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=99781726&PinnedHotelID=99781726&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78090000/78086700/78086670/510aa675.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cranberry Ridge - Ridge Point Glen Arbor - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 41 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=78086670&PinnedHotelID=78086670&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117840000/117838900/117838890/b0c771b1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cranberry Ridge - Cranberry Lodge Glen Arbor - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=117838890&PinnedHotelID=117838890&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/85000000/84260000/84252900/84252819/1f7e2831.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Adorable farmhouse style home with washer/dryer, central AC, deck - near lake Downtown Mmpire - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 8.4 Very good 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=84252819&PinnedHotelID=84252819&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/85000000/84250000/84249900/84249830/f0d7f038.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachfront cottage with Lake Michigan views, fireplace, gas grill, firepit, deck Glen Arbor - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Outdoor space 9.6 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-20&endDate=2026-01-21&selected=84249830&PinnedHotelID=84249830&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/77000000/76940000/76932500/76932453/b9d033f1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bay Point Hideaway in the Woods - with Hot Tub!

Perfect location close to Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear National Park. We had our dog with us and the home and yard is very dog friendly. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio in the morning and in the evening after a busy day of hiking. The beds are comfortable and the home is very clean. Would love to stay again. ##### Lisa L.

The deck was lovely and our Bulldog loved sitting on our laps on the swing! Thank You! ##### Kathleen A.

We were blown away by this location. It was perfectly tucked away from the busy roads, but close enough that everything was a 2-5 minute drive. We had 5 people stay, but this place could comfortably fit 8\. Super dog friendly, had food/water bowls ready when we got there. We spent most of our time on the porch or around the campfire. Kitchen was great to make meals in, came fully equipped with all utensils. We should’ve taken more advantage of the TV, speaker, and downstairs lounge area but we will have to save that for next time! We absolutely will be staying here again. ##### Claire C. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie M. 3 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family reunion This place was definitely 5⭐️. I actually have never been at a VRBO with sharp knives, and bring my own paper towels and cleaning supplies because they are always lacking. Not only was this place beautiful inside and out but had sharp knives, Tupperware and plenty of paper towels! Thank you for all the EXTRAS! Kept my adult kids and my family happy the entire time! Hoping to come back! ##### Julie M.
