About this cabin rental
This quaint little northwoods spot is the perfect getaway. The cabin is nestled in the quiet woods across the road from Old Settler's Park, which provides access to Big Glen Lake and a small public boat launch perfect for kayaks or canoes. This Burdickville location is within walking distance of two of the regions finest dining establishments, and a corner store/ice cream shop. It is just a short drive to the Sleeping Bear Dunes, Lake Michigan Beaches, the Crystal River, and the many towns in the area.
The cabin has 2 bedrooms, each with a double bed, and a sofa bed which sleeps an additional 2 people. There is a fully equipped kitchen and an outdoor grill. Enjoy a meal out on the deck. The outdoor fire pit is the perfect spot to stay warm as the sun sets behind Alligator Hill.

Along with being a cozy, spotlessly clean cabin, we found the location to be perfect for easy access to an amazing number of Sleeping Bear hiking trails and gorgeous Lake Michigan beaches. In addition, Glen Arbor, Empire, Leland, and Suttons Bay are all nearby and we never tired of the lovely drives around the peninsula. The cabin and furnishings are so comfortable and cooking meals a breeze in the well stocked kitchen. We also made good use of the outdoor fire pit, while enjoying the nighttime solitude and star-filled sky. In short, we loved everything about this property and communication with Heidi was excellent!

My daughter and I were up for a family reunion nearby. This cabin is well located, and the park across the street has playground equipment and a dock. We even saw the northern lights one night!
Definitely would recommend this cabin. Nice property too

My folks live close by, so was ideal to have a place to bring my own family when we came home for a visit. This pleasant cabin was ideally located for us, quiet, and charming in its simplicity.
We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, with more pots and pans than in other cabins we've rented in the area, deck and patio table, and proximity to the wildflower meadow in the park across the street. We also loved the down slippers, as we had a few cooler mornings during our stay, geraniums, and hammock. We ran out of time to use the fire pit, but with more time, we'd have appreciated that as well.
Our only challenge was the queen mattress on the creaky metal frame, which was a little too hard for us grown-ups. We piled extra bedding under the fitted sheet to make it a little more comfortable, and if we rent again, which we would love to do, we may need a memory foam topper (we discussed having one shipped), unless the mattress is upgraded, which would allow us to get better sleep during our annual week off. Our 15 year old was fine on the mattress in the room closest to the bathroom, though.
All in all, we had a very enjoyable stay. Thank you so much Heidi and Joachim.

Very clean and cozy. Nice beds. Perfect cottage for our son, d-I-law, and 3 yr old grandson. Would have held more people too.
Heidi was great to work with. During a power outage her husband came over w a portable generator. Awesome! Our grandson can not go to sleep without a fan going!

The pictures don't do this property justice. It is super cute. It has a great stone wall with gas fireplace and a very large picture window that allows a great view of the park. It is small but was plenty adequate for two couples. The location is great- right across from Glen Lake, close to Sleeping Bear, Glen Arbor and Empire. I would definitely stay here again!

I could not have imagined a better stay for a stay in Glen Arbor. deer, hummingbirds, and other creatures abounded, and the cottage was cozy and comfortable. Close to Glen Arbor, but far enough away to feel secluded. I would not hesitate to book again.

This adorable place in a beautiful setting was so much better than booking a couple of hotel rooms for my friends and me! The cottage was neat as a pin and Heidi was very responsive. Loved it!

I've been vacationing here (Glen Lake) since I was the ripe old age of two (67 years ago) and finally found a home away from home. Of all the places, this has become our "happy place" and we will return every two years as long as we're still welcome. Bravo and cheers for supplying a couple of old charter members of the "G.L. admirers club" a perfect nest in the woods!!! Divi and Sue.

Would definitely consider renting the same cottage again next year!

This cabin across from Old Settlers is small, but contains everything we wanted and needed for a lovely week=long stay! The 5 of us were very comfortable here. We used it as a home base for outings to the area as well as assisting with preparations for our niece's wedding reception. It was sweet, functional, and we enjoyed the lovely outdoor setting as well.
Our family comes to Glen Lake every year and we will use this rental again in future.

Peaceful and Perfect Location
This stay was inviting from the moment we pulled in the driveway. The owners had a couple lamps on for us which was so welcoming on a gloomy day. This cabin was clean and comfortable. We explored during the day and it was such a cozy place to come back to. Thank you for sharing your place with us. We would definitely rent again if we are in the area.

Nice Getaway
The home is very well equipped, with all that the 3 of us needed. Very clean and nicely furnished. Owners were instant to communicate with us. If you are looking in the Leelanau area I would recommend this cottage.

Cozy cabin with everything we needed to enjoy a peaceful stay. There is a park across the road & Big Glen Lake was partially visible from the cabin. Loved having fires at night. The STARS were amazing.
