Each of our properties has snow removal service scheduled to plow with each snowfall amounting to at least 3 inches of snow. If the vehicle you bring is not 4-Wheel or All-Wheel Drive, please be aware of the potential risks accessing the property when snow is present. The Neighborhood: You can walk to Glen Lake and have public lake access! A wagon and chairs are provided for you to stroll over to a nice little beach day. The town of Glen Arbor started as a trading post in 1848 and thrived during the 19th century due to the demand for lumber for constructing housing and fueling passing ships. Increased traffic in the Great Lakes resulted in several shipwrecks so a US Life Saving Station was established in 1901. Glen Arbor is reachable via the M-22, which is considered to be the USA's most scenic drive in fall. Getting Around: For longer stays, all Golden Swan properties, and our lowest pricing, please find us at goldenswanmgt.
