Our family enjoyed a wonderful week at the cottage. This truly was like a home away from home providing everything we could need or want during our stay. We loved and got a lot of use out of the outdoor shower, fire pit, & frog pond. We'll be back next summer!
With much gratitude, The Beargie Family

We had a fantastic time in the cottage! We loved how close we were to the beach and had many fun adventures with the sand & water. The outside of the house also has a wonderful way to spend the days and nights... the hammock, frog pond, and patio provided lots of fun for us and the kids. Close to town, wonderful memories, thank you!

p.s. Loved all the toys for the kids and the outside shower, made our vacation much more relaxing.

Given such short notice, the cottage ended up being the perfect choice for us, our dog, and our friends!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the near future. Thanks Rob

The cabin was so cozy & comfy. Beds were really comfy - we all slept great. Loved the outdoor shower and all the hot water. The beach is beautiful, the 82 stairs were not that difficult to walk up (not as bad as it looked). We 4 sisters are not exactly what you would call atheletes, so if we can climb those stairs, anyone can! We saw a beautiful deer on the beach, some beautiful sunsets as well. Had fun grilling out, playing scrabble, cooking for each other, shopping, and just relaxing together. This was a much-needed reunion for the 4 of us. We decided to make this cabin our reunion site for next year too.

Rob, we had a great time staying in your cozy cottage. The kids loved the frogs in the pond, toys, & movies. We all enjoyed s'mores at the firepit as well as the access to a private beach on the lake.
The people in Glenn are among the nicest we have encountered anywhere. Thanks for everything.

Rob, Thank you for sharing this hidden gem with us. The cottage is secluded and surrounded by many natural things, which allowed our children to tap into their deepest imaginations. By the way, the "frog pond", as our children called it, was a huge hit with them. You can't imagine how many hours of fun they had playing around it. Also, we didn't go a day without spending at least a couple of hours on the beach. Now we know why people often refer to the beach as "private"... not another soul to be seen.
We will certainly cherish these memories for many years to come.

Owner's comment: The An's purchased a home in the area just after their stay. The process went smoothly and I enjoyed working with them as their realtor.

We loved our stay in your wonderful cottage. It is unbelievably well appointed and perfectly fit for all ages.
The frog pond, fire pit, hammock, and screened porch were our favorites. We enjoyed great family meals, s'mores by the fire and sunsets on the beach.
In town, we loved the Dune Schooner ride, Oval Beach, and Wally's, oh, and picked delicious blueberries at Earl's - we mad two blueberry crisps in the week.
The blend of the quiet woods, gorgeous sand beach, and close location to local towns make this cottage a gem. We certainly enjoyed ourselves inn our homey cottage. It sure is clean.

What a charming place for our 15th annual "Girls Weekend". Clean and homey with everything you could need provided for you. We soooo enjoyed exploring the Saugatuck/Douglas area and have every intention of returning again next year. Thanks for sharing this lovely cottage Rob!

Our family of 6 adults and 3 children, ages 3 and under, enjoyed the Glenwood Cottage very much. It was exactly as advertised - in the middle of the woods, close to the beach, clean and private. We loved the screened-in porch, the fact that the house was very well equipped and the location. We would give this vacation house very high grades and hope to return in the future.

We stayed at this cottage over Labor Day weekend. It was an amazing place - best of all worlds - set in the woods with a quick walk to access to private beachfront on Lake Michigan. Close to Saugatuck & South Haven. Clean, clean surroundings. Quiet area meant for relaxation. Cottage is located in a quaint town full of antiques and farmers markets. We loved it here and plan on returning as soon as schedules permit!

Great place to stay with or without kids. Easy walk to the beach, very secluded, plenty of room and amenities. 10 minute drive to Douglas/Saugatuck. We have stayed at other places in the area and definitely recommend this one for privacy and quality of living space.

We had a lovely week at Glenwood Cottage. The home has a very welcoming and relaxed feeling. We enjoyed all of the special touches such as the outdoor cedar shower and the firepit. We look forward to another visit!

We loved our stay at this cottage. There was lots of space, spotlessly clean and some really amazing renovations by the owner like the tranquil, flowing pond. Our favorite spots were the large, sun porch and outdoor firepit. It was wonderfully peaceful and secluded - very relaxing.

Had a great weekend at this cottage. The owner has done a fabulous renovation and it is clean as a whistle. Very private and peaceful; plus very well equipped. Beds are comfy and rooms are large. Beach is gorgeous and deserted (long descent by stairs to beach, but its worth it). Highly recommend this place.

This place was very relaxing and quiet. I didnt think I could travel only 2 hours from chicago and see something so wonderful. The beaches were wonderful not crowded. The house was quiet,clean. The beds were comfortable. There is alot of space so even a large group can have peace and quiet. The outdoor shower was wonderful. I did not want to go home. The town was nice. Oval beach was really beatuiful it is in Saguatek only 10 min by car.

Perfect spot for our family vacation - centrally located for our family members that came from Chicago, Indianapolis,and Detroit area. It was the perfect size to sleep 8+ people and multiple dogs! The beach was super close and was pretty quiet - we were able to walk forever without seeing more than a handful of people. Perfect porch for board games and relaxing after a long, hard day playing in the sand. The location was close to Saugatuck and a quick 30 minute trip to St. Joseph. Would highly recommend it!

All in all it's really a lovely little place and we especially liked the screened-in porch. I would highlight this & the connecting (by pathway) outdoor patio even more in your description as that is truly the best amenity & quite hard to find. Thanks again so much for hustling to let us stay a night earlier than you had planned.

We had a great time. Thanks for the great place to stay. We had pretty much everything we would have needed. The firepit was fun.. we made s'mores until we were about sick!! The beach was so nice, private, & clean. Saugatuck is fun to visit, but we enjoyed the peace and quiet of Glenn.
