Glen Lake Cottage
A very clean, cute little cottage with a/c, a private bar-be -que grille and many housekeeping amenities provided for a comfortable stay. Nice well maintained grounds with beautiful beach area and use of a rowboat, paddle boat, paddle board, shuffleboard court, lounge chairs and picnic table with chairs.

We loved the Ranchette! It was clean and spacious enough for my daughter and I. The property was beautiful and the beach was very nice. We especially loved swimming and sun bathing. Thank you Chris for a wonderful stay!

This place was immaculate and the grounds felt resort-like. Great location. The cabin is larger and nicer than it looks in pictures.

The cabin were original, but very nicely kept. Lots of beach amenities such as paddle boards and beach toys. Property was very nicely kept. There were yard games and grills for all to use. Be advised that sheets and towels aren’t included in the price. The owner, Christian is kind and helpful, but prefers no outside company. We had another family in Glen Arbor stop by for a few hours for a picnic and boating (a small, family thing- not a drunken party) and this was obviously was frowned upon. We wouldn’t not have stayed there had I realized that ahead of time. I don’t like to make anyone feel out out. As long as the above won’t be an issue, it’s a great place for a family getaway. The beach is perfect for kids and it’s a 10 minute walk into town (maybe 15 to lake MI)

Cute cottage, beautiful property
Thank you Chris for a lovely stay! We stayed for our honeymoon 30 years ago and had a wonderful time…did not disappoint this time either. Great Lake access for cottage stayers and short walk to town. Perfect location and wonderful host Chris. He surprised us with champagne and flutes and flowers upon arrival knowing it was our 30th anniversary. Great weekend getaway—thanks Chris!

Great Stay! Close to everything you want beach, town, privacy.
I loved the stay at the Ranchette! The manager was very kind and made sure everything was at hand. We had to make our own bed, but they did provide the linens. We were a little early, but still never had to do that before. Also, I reminded the manager he needs to change the wifi username with the correct password that took a bit, but figured it out. Finally, the cable box didn't work and said it was old I hope he'd make sure everything is in working order before renting out in the future, but I have to say Chris was right on the Internet Provider and were without cable the first two nights and got them out there by the opening Thurs night football game so thanks for that! One more thing he told us checkout was at 10 and it was actually 11, but we had to leave early anyhow. I would also put in the ad that the washer and dryer are not in the ranchette, but in another building I assumed it was and could confuse others later on. These are all minor things and he corrected the cable box. He said he's going to change the wifi username to the corrected one and the other stuff is just has to know what he puts in the ad and what have you. All-in-all it was a great few days and loved Glen Arbor and Sleeping Bear Dunes! Thanks for the experience.
