Summer escape with friends

Excellent location....met the owners and they were great and very caring about making our visit memorable. Beds and spaces were comfortable. Close to shopping in Glen Arbor. Only thing that was frustrating was the fruit flies. I guess it is that time of year for these to appear.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cosy and comfortable. The location was great and the views were amazing! We plan to book this place next year. The cottage had everything we needed. It’s an older style cottage, but very functional. I would recommend having instructions on how to use the heater and invest in having AC for the first unit.
