A cozy and charming cottage on the gorgeous waters of Big Glen Lake. Excellent location for enjoying all types of water sports, swimming, pickleball, tennis, hiking, biking, bird watching, shopping, dining, and just relaxing and taking in the views of the stunning water colors of Big Glen Lake. This place is a real gem! ##### Larry G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karrie N. 12 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Vacay Spot with our dogs The living area was great and open with a spectacular view of the lake! It was very comfortable for our 6 friends and our dogs to hang out together. The kitchen area is very nice and the island area was very useful! The bedrooms were very nicely sized as well. The best part was watching the sunrise over the lake from bed! The bathrooms were clean but the shower is VERY small!! This is completely out of the control of the property owner but two of us braved getting in the water and both of us got Swimmer’s Itch. When searching Glen Lake afterwards it seems it is a known problem of the association. Make sure to rinse off IMMEDIATELY after getting out of the water. I did sooner than my friend and didn’t get it as bad as she did. Our dogs swam a lot and we rinsed them right away each time and so far we haven’t seen an issue with them (fingers crossed). ##### Karrie N.
