Wonderful Week on Little Glen
We loved this cottage! The house was fully stocked with everything you need. My kids loved the large yard and lake access. I loved being able to jump right on Alligator Hill Trail almost right from the house.

Great times on Glen Lake
Beautiful lake and a great house on a large lot. Loved seeing the dunes from the dock. Kids enjoyed the paddle boards and clear shallow water.

Great outdoor space
Very nice property. Great location, great lake access (though note it is shallow for a long way out from the shore). Very cozy, comfortable house. Bedrooms more comfortable than expected. Lots of outdoor seating options on deck, fire pit, etc. Very small downside of no dishwasher and some imperfect water pressure in the showers, but who cares. Great place for a big family or a couple small families.

Amazing
Marcia the host was wondering and so helpful. The house and location was perfect for my family. Amazing view of the dunes and sunsets. The lake itself was clear, warm and peaceful. Will definitely return. Highly recommended!

We Were New to VRBO
Our first venture with VRBO and this property did NOT disappoint. Lovely lake home, expansive lawn, patio and deck for entertaining or just relaxing. There are a variety of outdoor and lake options, from corn hole, bikes, kayaks and paddle boards. Our only complaint was that the weather was uncooperative for most of the week and only had one day to use those items.
