All around wonderful!
Loved staying at the little green cottage…best of both worlds with the privacy of being in the woods (including deer who walked through the backyard each morning) and a completely renovated cottage with all of the amenities…I was especially impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was. Highly recommended!

Perfect fall getaway
The little green cottage was in the perfect setting in Glen Arbor. The house was perfect and offered plenty of options for our kids, from kayaking to basketball. Close enough to Lake Michigan to walk and watch the sunset. We would definitely stay here again!

Little slice of heaven
This was our second visit to Glen Arbor, and this house was simply perfect. It is tucked away in the woods, but it is only a short bike ride to downtown and a quick walk to public beach access that felt private. The house is well-appointed with anything and everything we could’ve possibly needed. The beds were comfortable, and our young boys thought the NFL Blitz arcade game was the coolest ever. Emily was quick to respond and super friendly in all communications. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to visit again.

The Little Green Cottage does not disappoint.
This cottage has a magical quality in a lovely wooded setting. Each morning, we saw deer grazing very nearby, including two large bucks. Wildlife also includes geese, ducks, chipmunks, squirrels and a range of other birds. You will not regret giving this cozy cottage a try.
