We absolutely loved and enjoyed staying at this property, we did not want to leave!! This house is very well-appointed. A lot of care and thought has gone into both the design/decor and the equipment. It was also spotless, clean, and felt like home. It is only about a 5 minute walk to town, which was an added bonus. The host is very helpful and a super nice person!! We cannot wait to plan a trip back! :-) ##### Jami P.

Wouldn't recommend it for more than 2/3 people as the living area is limited. The firepit was an unexpected bonus space that we used both nights. Close to the road, but not much traffic at night so it didn't bother us. Definitely has hosted a dog or two (we found kibble and dog hair on the floor). ##### nadia r.

This was the perfect spot for us & our corgis while we spent a few days in Glen Arbor! Our experience with the hosts could best be described as exceptional. They were incredibly responsive before our stay & made sure the cottage was stocked with all the essentials (and a little more!). The thoughtfulness that went into the property was obvious from when we first arrived. And, the guest guide also answered any questions we had which made the whole process smooth. The stairs leading to the loft do feel a bit steep, so it may not be the most accessible for everyone. However, there is a room on the main floor if needed. Looking forward to coming back for another stay! ##### Rebecca B.

Everything is well thought our in the space. I loved the blankets everywhere, super cozy on chilly nights. It was just my husband and I so we didn't utilize the loft space, but it is a good size with a second bed. It would be a great space for older kids, the stairs are steep, but kids would love it! Dogs allowed was a huge bonus for us. Great location, we walked to the coffee shop each morning. Has all the amenities, kitchen items, coffee, towels etc.. Even a washer/dryer available if you need it. Much success to you! (Would have loved to see inside the A frame next door, it looks awesome as well! Maybe next time) ##### Simone C.
