Summary: We loved our stay at this Glen Lake getaway! The location was perfect—just minutes to Empire and Glen Haven Beach, and only a 15–16 minute bike ride to Glen Arbor, the Dune Climb, and the Heritage Trail. The big backyard was ideal for the kids to play kickball and soccer, and we made great memories roasting marshmallows around the fire pit. The house itself was full of beautiful natural light and felt bright and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!
