It has since been renovated (2019) to accommodate family & friend gatherings, while providing a private & intimate setting. The Little Green Cottage in the Woods is a 1 Bedroom Loft, hidden between Lake Michigan & Downtown Glen Arbor. A 5-minute walk to Lake Michigan allows for beautiful views of Sleeping Bear Dunes, both Manitou Islands & sunsets that go unmatched on a nightly basis. Although the beach is public, it very much has a private feel & is a great spot to relax & let little ones play. A walk along the beach will either take you towards Downtown Glen Arbor & Sleeping Bear Dunes or America’s Freshwater Resort, The Homestead. Beautiful Glen Arbor consists of fun restaurants, live music, a newly renovated outdoor park, miles of walking & biking trails, cute shops & boutiques, the Original Cherry Republic, Boondocks & local favorite, ART’s Tavern. Just 5 minutes from town is both Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park & picturesque Glen Lake. The Little Green Cottage itself backs into the Crystal River. Kayaking from the river into Lake Michigan or into downtown Glen Arbor is a great way to relax & enjoy a beautiful Northern Michigan day. The outside of the property also includes a built in fire pit, outdoor seating, heat lamps, charcoal grills (with easy operating instructions), bikes, basketball hoops, hammocks, nature trails, yard games, toddler toys, balls & racquets, & a heated outdoor shower! The cottage was designed to allow for an intimate gathering of family & friends. The layout & accommodations consist of a main-floor bedroom & bath, upstairs loft with trundle beds & full bath. The main floor also has an open kitchen concept with direct access to the patio & beautiful views of nature. The kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, gas oven-range, & a large island w/ample counter space. It is also equipped with a main floor clothes washer & dryer. If you happen to be spending time indoors, the home comes with card games, board games, strategy games, puzzles, retro gaming consoles, LG OLED SmartTV w/Soundbar, Hi-Speed Wi-Fi, books, binoculars (great bird watching), & wonderful beds for napping (no bad beds). The sights of Northern Michigan are breathtaking & ever-changing. Tour the Leelanau Peninsula via scenic M22 or take a day exploring Historic Front Street in Northern Michigan’s largest city, Traverse City. At The Little Green Cottage in the Woods, exploration awaits, adventure is encouraged & memories are waiting to be made. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift (single-level property) - Stair-free path to entrance - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - On a river ### Things to do - Bicycles - Kayak ### 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) ### General - Bicycles ## Similar properties ![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 - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 40 reviews £325 includes taxes & fees 16 Oct - 17 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-16&endDate=2025-10-17&selected=78086670&PinnedHotelID=78086670&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/66000000/65520000/65511900/65511840/bfce1f58.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern home in Glen Arbor.
