Sunsets on Big Glen Lake w/kayaks, firepit, tennis court sleeps 8, dock

This is nothing short of a spectacular home and location. Imagine the sparkling blue and green water of Glen Lake. Eagles, Terns, Swans, and Egrets are just some of the beautiful wildlife that visit this location. The main house in the Brookhaven Resort, sits right at the water's edge and is a front-row seat to this show of sun, stars, water, and nature. Sparkling Big Glen Lake awaits for swimming, boating, and fishing fun.

This wonderfully decorated home has 3-bedrooms, 2-bathrooms, and a charming sleeping porch. It is a ranch home on the end of a quiet street and faces west for some of the most stunning sunsets you will ever see.

Brookhaven house sleeps eight with 1-king, 1-queen, 2-twins, and additional sleeping on an enclosed porch with a twin day-bed and trundle (totaling two twins). The porch is a great area to relax, share a drink with friends, or have coffee in the morning. These accommodations are the perfect relaxing retreat. There are gorgeous hardwood floors in the kitchen. A spacious great room, kitchen/living room, with expansive views of the lake welcomes visitors. A wonderful deck stretches the length of the house, overlooking the lake with panoramic views! Sit on the deck and enjoy the peace of lapping waves. Features a dock (cannot be used for boat dockage), shared access to row boats, stand-up paddle boards, canoe, tennis/pickleball court, volleyball setup, including a fire pit. Cable TV, DVD, Wi-Fi, washer/dryer, and a grill complete the amenities. Enjoy the view of Alligator Hill from the deck. It is 10 minutes to Sleeping Bear Dunes and 1/2 hour to Traverse City. A Short trip takes guests to the village of Glen Arbor and Lake Michigan.

Disappointed

The property was not adequately advertised. I’m sure at one point it was a very nice home, but we found it dirty and hard to relax. Cobwebs everywhere. A over abundance of insects inside and outside the home. We have stayed on this lake many times and have never had issues like this. There was also evidence of mice. Dishwasher was broken and dishes in the cabinets were dirty. We had to hand wash everything. Mold in showers and while bedsheets were clean, blankets and comforters were not. The shared “resort” was awkward. Didn’t feel comfortable using the fire pit or using the paddle boards as there were so many people wanting them. The overall property was overgrown and not cared for. I called the property manager with no answer and also messaged and emailed. Still nothing. We made the most of it and tried to enjoy our vacation despite the disappointment.
