About this property

Little Glen Lake 3 bedroom, 2 bath, Air Conditioning, Great Swimming & Fishing

  • Timber Trail is a 3 bedroom ranch on Little Glen Lake. The cottage has a slight elevation which gives it a wonderful view of the water. The main bedroom is spacious with a queen bed and connected bathroom. The second bedroom has a full size bed, while the third bedroom has 2 twins, making it a great option for families.

    The cottage is minutes from the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Alligator Hill hiking trail and the village of Glen Arbor. Pierce Stocking Drive is a must do while here.

    Timber Trail has many renters that have been coming back for years. It makes a great home base to explore the abundant award winning wineries, restaurants & shops locally.

    Pictures are not current. Many updates have been done. Will be taking new pictures spring 2026

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great location!!!! Sleeping Bear Dunes Alligator Hill trails access directly across the street (thank you Tammy!); 6 min from Glen Arbor; awesome lake, dock and grass/sand beach, beautiful views from higher view patio. The house was clean and had everything we needed - great towels and ample bedding. It's dated so you feel like you're at a 60s/70s cottage but it's spacious and has great views. The outside of house, out buildings and landscaping need attention. Hopefully someone tries to keep it up a bit better as it's an awesome place for a vacation. We enjoyed it and our dogs had a blast!

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
The pictures shown on the website were misleading. The furniture was shabby. Old kitchen cupboards. Small bedrooms and damp bedding.The living room was very small. The house was damp and although the host later said she could turn on the air conditioning it would not help the dankness. The front door was broken and would not stay shut. The bathrooms were old. This rental has not been updated since it was probably built in the 60's or 70's. What you are paying for is the location. We could not stay even one night as my partner started getting a headache. We later asked for at least a partial refund which was refused. I would not recommend this rental.
