The 'Beach House' on Little Glen Lake was built in the early 20's as part of the old 'Oasis Resort', one of the early resorts that used to operate around the lake. Originally a boathouse, It was converted to a cottage sometime in the late 30's. In 1996 we completely gutted the original building and rebuilt it as a private guest cottage. Surrounded by extensive decks and a shaded private outdoor dining area the cottage sits on a very private setting on the north shore of Little Glen Lake with spectacular views of the surrounding hills, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, and fabulous sunsets. The water is crystal clear with a sandy bottom and is excellent for swimming and is especially nice for small children as it is shallow for over 100' out. You have your own private dock, and a dedicated mooring is available should you bring your own boat. The south facing deck in front of the cottage has both chaise lounges and adirondack chairs and is perfect for reading, getting a tan or enjoying a beverage. A canoe and 2 kayaks are available for your use. After dark enjoy a fire and smores in your own private firepit. Be aware that there is a stairway which you must negotiate to reach the cottage - not steep, 22 steps with several landings. Not appropriate for wheelchairs or walkers.

The cottage was homey but not cluttered and it felt very clean. It felt very private and relaxed. It was a great location for access to Sleeping Bear Dunes as well. The deck was great for morning coffee and evening drinks. Lots of avian wildlife to observe, we saw many birds including a bald eagle right above the deck. The host had great suggestions for beaches, trails, and restaurants. They are also very responsive and quickly address and resolve any problems. It had everything we needed and we especially loved the available kayaks and paddle board, and fire pit with wood included! Thank you so much for a great stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James O. 24 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A hideaway in the center of an adventurer's paradise! The clear waters of Little Glen Lake lap on the sandy shore just steps away from this sweet cottage. The kitchen is fully equipped and the living room is cozy and inviting. Just outside the picture windows are the sparkling lake waters. It's so quiet and hidden from houses and roads that you forget -- for a while -- you are a short drive from hillside hikes, easy kayak floats, breathtaking overlooks, vineyards and wineries, apple orchards, roadside produce stands; or quaint shops and casual restaurants. Return to the cabin at sunset, pour some of that Michigan wine from the day's outing, relax on the deck of your retreat at the water's edge and know THIS is a perfect place to relax, refuel and recharge for your next adventure! ##### James O.

A wonderful week on the beautiful lake... Amazing sunsets...great kayaking...great nearby hiking paths... Everything you need is there... With open windows at night the lapping of the water lulls you to sleep... Thank you for a great getaway... ##### Edith B.
