Week on Little Glenn Lake

Joan and Bob's property is just as pictured with great access to the lake and private dock. We really enjoyed the included kayaks as well as proximity to hiking, biking and Glenn Arbor. We will stay here again.

Ideal accomodations!

This garage apartment was the perfect place for us! Bob and Joan are so welcoming and have created a renter's dream! The apartment is comfortable and cozy with a gorgeous view of the water. The kitchen is stocked with everything needed to prepare home-cooked meals including our own barbecue. We had our own deck and dock complete with kayaks. We stayed for three weeks and wish it could have been longer! We will definitely be back!
