Summary:

Dune Hideaway: On Little Glen Lake



The Space:

Welcome to Dune Hideaway, your lakeside retreat along the peaceful shores of Little Glen Lake. This recently updated charming cottage combines modern comforts with breathtaking natural beauty, making it the perfect place to relax, recharge, and explore Northern Michigan. The home features two cozy bedrooms: a primary suite with a king bed and en suite bathroom, and a bunk room with a double bed and twin above. A pull-out sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping space, comfortably accommodating up to seven guests. Each bedroom and the living room are equipped with smart TVs, offering easy entertainment for kids and adults alike. A convenient 1.5-bath setup ensures comfort and privacy for all. Inside, the open layout seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces, so you can cook, dine, and unwind together. The kitchen is outfitted with new stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, and an island with extra seating. A large dining table welcomes family dinners or game nights, while the living room—with its tasteful furnishings and expansive lake views—creates a warm, relaxing atmosphere. Step outside to the furnished back deck, where you can grill a tasty meal on the brand new grill, dine under the open sky, or simply lounge with a book while taking in the sparkling water and surrounding dunes. A fire pit invites cozy evenings under the stars, and the sandy shoreline with a private dock makes it easy to enjoy the lake. Guests have access to two provided kayaks, a paddleboat, and a mooring, perfect for swimming, paddling, or spending the day out on the water. Dune Hideaway is ideally located for both lake life and outdoor adventure. The home is just one mile from the iconic Dune Climb and offers direct access to the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail, with walking and biking access located just across the road from the driveway. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee by the water, exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, biking scenic trails, or enjoying a sunset cruise on Glen Lake, this cottage is the perfect setting for unforgettable Northern Michigan memories.
