Stayed for 2 nights, absolutely blown away by the excellent service by the staff and quality of space available to me. Beautiful room, dining area, patio, and amazing location. I did not have the opportunity to have breakfast either mornings but was pleasantly surprised after offered breakfast to last me my long trip home.

Not enough ways to offer enough stars. The Sylvan Inn was everything we hoped and more. Beautifully restored while maintaining the charm of an older home, perfect location, outstanding breakfast and overall care from the owners. Can't wait to return!

My wife and I stayed for 2 days to relax and take in the scenery along the banks of Lake Michigan and to check out other places. We really enjoyed checking out the lighthouses around the area. The staff allowed us to change the breakfast menu as we didn’t prefer some food on it.

We enjoyed the old style and access to the shore.

Lovely, charming bed and breakfast. Comfortable rooms, location was perfect with walking distance to downtown and close to bike/hiking trails. Beach was also walking distance. Staff was very pleasant and food was delicious.
Would definitely stay here again. Excellent location.

The staff was most accommodating and pleasant.

We were not able to stay at the Inn. The room assigned to us was up some very steep steps (interior) without a full handrail from top to bottom. This was not going to be safe for me. We released the rooms right away so the owner could at least rebook the second night. We have requested a partial refund if they were indeed able to rebook. This is a very busy time in the area, and people were calling about last minute accommodations (per the owner). My husband also thought the room was very small and basic.

Charming Glen Arbor historic property with a delightful staff and good food located in town and a short walk to everything. Across the street from Serbin Real Estate if you are shopping real estate in the Leelanau . . . a 5 star boutique realtor with superb service! Enjoy!

The Sylvan Inn is a comfortable, friendly, and historic bed & breakfast in Glen Arbor, very close to the Sleeping Bear Dunes, Lake Michigan, and Glen Lake -- an absolutely gorgeous setting for many kinds of outdoor adventures. It's walkable to the shops and restaurants in Glen Arbor, and breakfast was consistently delicious. Great porch for relaxing too, and a convivial place to make new friends while traveling.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Sylvan inn. It was very cozy and like being at home (without having to make the coffee or breakfast). Everyone was personable and accommodating. We will definitely look interesting here again if we return to Glen Arbor to visit the dunes.

Staying at the Sylvan Inn was like going to your best friend’s house. Our room was cozy and included a sitting area. The Inn’s porch (OMG) was perfect for relaxing with a drink in the evening or eating breakfast. We would go back again in a heartbeat.

Fantastic stay at Sylvan Inn, the host is very nice and accommodating, made fabulous breakfast for us in the morning, the location is perfect, walkable to the center of the town, also only a short drive to sleeping bear dunes; the only downside is the shared bathroom, but if you don’t mind sharing, then it’s not a problem at all, it’s clean and tidy; and I would definitely choose this same place if I plan another trip to the dunes
