An ideal Leelanau getaway, A Cool Studio Glen Arbor, is a plush studio condo on the banks of the Crystal River, close to pristine sand dunes and Sleeping Bear Bay beachfront on the majestic Lake Michigan shoreline. This homestead Resort Studio is a juxtaposition of vintage and modern, including character-filled parquet floors and mid-century modern hardware, while featuring all new plush bedding, fully updated swanky furniture, West Elm outfitted kitchenette, and all the latest electronics to keep up…or just relax and enjoy!

Step out of the sliding glass door and onto the bank of the Crystal River where you can tube, kayak, SUP or swim all the way out to Lake Michigan! Walk the beach, stroll along the riverbank, or walk the boardwalk which stretches for blocks just outside the condo building. Hike or bike the nearby paved Heritage Bike Trail to scenic Northern Michigan destinations.

- "This was a great condo! Very beautiful and comfortable. Had everything you would need for a great vacation!" - "My sister and I take a little trip every year that’s just for us. We chose here for 2023 and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The river…the dune…the lake. We literally sat outside at the patio set in the evening and watched a buck climb over the dune and walk along the river. Stunning!!! The whole next day we spent at the beach with our cozy blankets and mittens, beach chairs and waves crashing. An amazing fall day. This trip was so peaceful, full of nature, and exactly the R&R we needed. We will definitely return!"

Smittys GA is a unique home situated on a very private seven acre partially wooded site, surrounded by flower gardens, featuring neo-classical inspired architectural elements uncommon to the area.
The main home features 3 bedrooms (2K,1Q), 2 loft bedrooms (1Q, 2T), 3 bathrooms, 2 spacious living rooms with 20' ceilings , an exercise room complete with a flat screen TV, stereo, universal weight machine, Precor elliptical glider and yes a ceiling fan. The home also features a screened in, fully finished, heated (hopefully not needed but there if it is) 3 stall garage with an all-weather ping pong table which can safely be taken outdoors, Tournament Foosball table (indoor only), stereo and also a lighted, marked, outdoor (driveway) 1/2 court basketball court also with stereo.
Inside the home the dining room opens to the formal living room (living room one) which runs the length of the house from Northern to Southern exposures. To the North the living room opens through double doors onto an airy enclosed screened porch featuring a 20' ceiling. The screened porch in turn, opens through double doors onto the rear of the homes two spacious decks. The rear deck overlooks a large and active organic fruit and vegetable garden which abuts the balance of the properties acreage. There are approximately 5 acres behind the home which in turn adjoin the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park land. The property is surrounded by another 28 acres of land held in the Leelanau Land Conservancy.
Returning to the main home, the formal living (East end of home) room opens to the south (front of home) through double doors onto a sunny 320sf redwood front deck. This deck is in the feature thumbnail picture and is surrounded by flower gardens so don't forget to use the zoom feature on this one.
The middle door in the photo is the mainly used entrance on the front of the home. It enters into a large foyer and mudroom built to separate the house into two zones where, for instance, kids could watch an action movie in one living room and parents could read a book in the other or vice versa. The foyer leads to the mudroom and both also feature Brazilian terra cotta tile as an aesthetically warm but thoroughly protective flooring area and space to shed the shoes. Here you will find a thoroughly stocked walk in pantry.
Through the mudroom turning to the right leads to the kitchen. Left at the mudroom leads to the second living room which intentionally incorporates many of the trim design elements of living room one. The spacious second living room was built to feel more casual and features high knotty spruce ceilings, two ceiling fans, an eight foot tall sliding window wall on the northern exposure and a spiral staircase to the 2nd loft bedroom as well cushy comfortable Natuzzi leather sofa, loveseat and chair and a Denon surround system.
Continuing west through the second living room takes you to the third bedroom featuring a queen bed, skylight for those spectacular starry nights and a sliding doorwall to the north deck. Continuing on you pass across the 'pass-through' which is the door nearest the garage. The 'pass-through' was designed to allow quick access between the front yard and the back yard. Accordingly this area also features Brazilian terra cotta tile and a place to 'kick off your shoes'.
Continuing on westward takes you past the 3rd bath and into the exercise room. Here you will find a universal weight machine, a Precor glider, flat screen TV, wet bar, a second refrigerator, and entrance to the garage which was described early on.
The finishes in the home were selected for both durability and comfort with floors being 75% hardwood, 15% quarry tile and 10% carpet. You will find carpet only in the master suite and the two loft bedrooms. The home features knotty spruce ceilings in both the 2nd living room and the exercise room. Countertops are ceramic tile in the kitchen and granite on both the kitchens breakfast bar countertop and the wet bar in the exercise room.
Appliances include a 2nd refrigerator just off the exercise room and front-load washer and dryer just off the kitchen. The kitchen features a Fridgidaire slide-in 4 burner range, over the range microwave, Kitchenaid dishwasher, blender, Bunn coffee maker and grinder, etc.
Above the garage is another 800 sf of living space. This “carriage house” apartment features hardwood throughout, one bedroom with a queen size pillow top bed, 1 bathroom with a shower stall, apartment sized “stacked” washer/dryer laundry unit, an open kitchen with a Jenn-Air electric range, Kitchen-aid refrigerator, appropriate cooking and dining utensils, skylights, a ceiling fan, flat screen TV and bar seating and an open dining area which together would easily seat 6 adults comfortably.
Currently the carriage house also has two additional sleeper sofas for additional sleeping space one of which may be substituted with a second queen bed for a small additional fee.
- "Beautiful spacious house! We are an extended family of 15 and there was plenty of room for everyone. Owner was very responsive to our needs. If we return to Glen Arbor, this house would be our first choice!" - "We had a wonderful week long stay. Very comfortable for our large family. The owners have thought of everything to make things easy and memorable. Great communication with the host James." - "We gathered our adult kids and grandkids (totaling 14) to join us for a week together. We hiked, kayaked, shopped, ate ice cream, and played pickleball. Inside the grandkids were thrilled with the game room and we loved that it was separate from the room we adults enjoyed. The screened in porch is where we spent most of our time. We cooked our meals in the spacious kitchen. The walk to Glen Arbor was easy. And we LOVED all the flowers on the property - gorgeous. The part of the house we loved the most is that it is so spread out! It gave everyone the space they needed, and yet, we were all together."

Bordered on one side by National Seashore land, this cottage lies at the southern end of the Narrows Bridge dividing Big and Little Glen Lakes. Cottage is five hundred feet from the Narrows isthmus and bridge, with public access to Little Glen Lake available on both sides of the bridge. Walk to public frontage with your raft or kayak. If you prefer a broad sand beach, Glen Haven Beach at the National Seashore is a three-minute drive away with many beautiful and secluded public Lake Michigan beaches available further up the Leelanau Peninsula.
And some of the best road biking in the Midwest is available from your driveway. Begin your ride at the cottage and head off on an easy ride to Glen Arbor village center where you can catch the Heritage Trail--or head northeast on MacFarlane for a challenging ride past Inspiration Point and around Big Glen Lake to the Crystal River and the Heritage Trail.
Bear Haven cottage has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a screened-in porch for summer. Five beds include three single beds in the second bedroom and a king bed in the master bedroom. There is also a comfortable sleep sofa in the family room.
Rents Saturday to Saturday. Check in 4 PM - check out 10 AM. House close to Sleeping Bear dunes and Dune Climb with Big and Little Glen Lakes across the street. Boat rentals available in walking distance. Bring kayaks and walk to public access on the Narrows Bridge.
Superb biking from cottage. Major hills surround, including on MacFarlane and a series of seven ascents on Benzonia, but equally possible to reach the Heritage Trail bike path stretching from Empire to Good Harbor Bay without a single significant climb by riding into Glen Arbor and catching the Heritage Trail there.
- "Comfortable with lots of outdoor play area." - "We have been visiting the Sleeping Bear Dunes area for decades, and Bear Haven is one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in at Glen Lake. The cottage is honestly nicer than the pictures. Everything needed for a comfortable vacation is provided, including a well-stocked kitchen, linens, towels, coffee maker with filters, fans, pleasant eating areas, fenced in play area for children, and a decent view of Little Glen. The layout is perfect for two families, and the open floor plan is efficient and cozy. One feature that does not get noticed in the VRBO description is the screen porch with shade and pleasant breezes off the lake. This was an amazing place to read, visit, relax, or eat a snack. The host contacted us early on and then closer to our stay. All the information we needed to know was included and it made for a smooth arrival. A nice touch is a keyless entry pad on the front door and notification that the cottage was ready for occupancy earlier than 4:00. The lake can make rentals have a musty smell, but not here! Easy-to-open windows with screens and a recent remodel make for a clean, fresh cottage. One of our guests was a culinary chef, and he loved the kitchen. Fully stocked, spacious, and easy to use. Don’t hesitate to spend a week here with 5 minute drives to Glen Arbor, the National Park, the public dune climb, Glen Haven Beach, and more. A perfect location."

Short walk to shops and restaurants and the lake to view spectacular sunsets. Short drive to Sleeping Bear Dunes. Water does have an odd smell, so bring bottled.

Great up north quick getaway!" - "The home was nice and clean and the beds were quite comfortable.

- "Nice cottage in a nice neighborhood. Beautiful view and lots of local things to do." - "My Wife and I along with our 3 daughters had a wonderful time. The views, beach, and fires at night made our stay one to remember. If you’re thinking about visiting Glen Arbor then I would definitely stay here." - "Very enjoyable stay and rental!" - "Right on the lake, plenty of room." - "Our family of 5 stayed at Firefly cottage for the week of July 4th... the experience was amazing!! We love lake life and the towns of Glen Arbor and Traverse City! Firefly was a perfect location with a huge frontage to Glen Lake... mornings were magical... and the sunsets took our breath away! We didn’t spend much time in the cottage as we brought a boat and spent most of our time on the water! Due to the depth of our boat and the shallowness of this location we docked (using a mooring) at The Narrows Marina (across from the cottage). It was literally a walk across the bridge. Paul was awesome to work with at the Marina (along with all of the great kids working the dock and marina office... Our evenings we enjoyed having fires, cooking dinners in the kitchen or walking around town (enjoying different restaurants) ... We also loved spending time at the Dunes! As a whole we rated this vacation as one of our favorites... it really is “a slice of heaven”!!!"

We also have a lakeside firepit with log stools, a dry sauna, small laundry facility, tennis court, row boat, paddle boards, shuffle board court, beach chaise lounge chairs, basketball, and archery range. The peaceful 100' + sugar sand beach is shared with two other villas, but not crowded at all.

- "We really enjoyed our stay. Very clean and comfortable! The cabin is close by many attractions. The owner was extremely helpful and even sat down with us to show us a map of many places to check out in the area. You are right on Glen Lake and there are paddle boards available to use and coming home to a nice fire in the fire pit by the lake was a plus. The drive to many locations is only 2-15 minutes away. You can rent bikes downtown if you didn’t bring any but I wish we would have brought ours. If you can, bring bikes! So many places to bike too."

- "Enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view and great location." - "The living area was great and open with a spectacular view of the lake! It was very comfortable for our 6 friends and our dogs to hang out together. The kitchen area is very nice and the island area was very useful! The bedrooms were very nicely sized as well. The best part was watching the sunrise over the lake from bed! The bathrooms were clean but the shower is VERY small!! This is completely out of the control of the property owner but two of us braved getting in the water and both of us got Swimmer’s Itch. When searching Glen Lake afterwards it seems it is a known problem of the association. Make sure to rinse off IMMEDIATELY after getting out of the water. I did sooner than my friend and didn’t get it as bad as she did. Our dogs swam a lot and we rinsed them right away each time and so far we haven’t seen an issue with them (fingers crossed)."

- "We have stayed in the house several times over the years. Great location. Warm and inviting home. Terrific place for a trip to Glen Arbor and surrounding area." - "Great home, great location, perfect getaway!" - "Loved working through local Glen Arbor office" - "This property is in a great location close to town and in a quiet neighborhood. It has a very well equipped kitchen and was very clean. The beds were comfortable. The lighting, however, was terrible. It was impossible to read in the evenings: there were no table or floor lamps. The driveway had no lighting. The property was supposed to have garage and laundry access, but it was locked. The snow and ice had not been removed from the deck and home entrance before our arrival or during our stay and was very slippery. We had no access to a shovel. Importantly, when I contacted management regarding this, their response was not helpful. I would stay at this property again, if the lighting issue was resolved. I think in winter months that snow removal for safety should be a priority. Thanks."

This up north getaway is located in the heart of Glen Arbor. Our suite has a small kitchenette that is perfect for light meals or snacking on local produce and the private deck is ideal for a enjoying a relaxing cup of coffee or glass of wine.
- "The place was very clean, well equipped, and very quiet during the day as well as at night. The smoke alarm might need a new battery as it didn't light up at night. The bathroom door hooks seemed a little high. The steps coming up to deck seemed a little dangerous (nothing to hold on to). Overall we enjoyed our stay. Thank you." - "Highly recommend" - "This was a great place to stay to experience all the magic of the area. Once we were done exploring the area for the day, we were close to all the dining and entertainment we were looking for in the evening. Inside was perfectly curated and immaculately clean. Recent updates are well thought out and even though it’s not a huge place, we were not missing anything. Thanks for the great stay!"
