Ideal Spot for a Quiet, Cozy Classic Northern MI Getaway
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Brookhaven 5 is a perfectly sized cabin for a small-sized, cozy getaway in Northern MI. The cabin is perfectly located just steps away from the water with pristine views of the lake and is also a super short drive from the main street of Glen Arbor. 10/10 would come back the next time I'm in the area!

Great Rental House
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was gorgeous. The main room is nice and open with plenty of room for our whole family. Love that it is dog friendly. Despite allowing dogs, the home was immaculately clean. It had the best stocked kitchen of any rental I have ever stayed in. Quiet and close to Glen Arbor, nothing to complain about here whatsoever.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cosy and comfortable. The location was great and the views were amazing! We plan to book this place next year. The cottage had everything we needed. It’s an older style cottage, but very functional. I would recommend having instructions on how to use the heater and invest in having AC for the first unit.

Rainy week
The weather was bad!! Can't fix that! It was a decent place. No AC and No TV! But they did have the internet!! The beach and toys and the fire pit are shared by all 4 cabins. Didn't spend much time in the cabin as it rained a lot!!

Family time on Big Glen Lake
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of four rented a 3 bedroom cabin on Big Glen Lake and it was perfect for us. Great location only 5 min from Glen Arbor, 10 min to the Dune Climb, and 30 min to Traverse City. We took advantage of all of the nearby destinations and squeezed in two kayak excursions on Big Glen Lake. Cabin property had kayaks and paddle boards and the the shallow water at the property made entry and easy for the whole family. The cabin was all we needed; clean, full kitchen, shower with plenty of hot water, and a living room and porch to spread out and relax. We plan to return with friends or other family members in multiple cabins!!

MI Color Tour
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As every year, we travel up north in Michigan to see some beautiful colors of nature during fall. This time we chose to stay in a small cabin with another couple. We were company of four and the cabin had enough space for all of us. It was clean and tidy. Love creative display of bath towels :) We had beautiful unobstructed view of the Big Glen Lake and enjoyed peace and quiet of the property since it’s away from the main road. We would definitely love to come back to the cabin but during warmer months. Even though the cabin is supplied with a wall heater and portable heater, couple of us were not as warm as we would have liked. But then again we like heat and not everyone likes to be toasty. Thank you so much for making us feel welcomed!

Summer escape with friends
Excellent location....met the owners and they were great and very caring about making our visit memorable. Beds and spaces were comfortable. Close to shopping in Glen Arbor. Only thing that was frustrating was the fruit flies. I guess it is that time of year for these to appear.

Cabin was as described on the website. A little cold when we got there but with a couple of space heaters and electric blankets we were good. Had a great time with friends. I would love to come back in the warmer weather and check it out.

Nice little get-away
We had a great time at Brookhaven. The property owners were very nice and accommodating. The cottages were quaint and comfortable. We loved the surrounding communities of Glen Arbor, Maple City, and Empire. Add in Sleeping Bear Dunes and all the boxes are checked. Nightly bon fires, s’mores, and star watching were extra-added bonuses. My only complaint is the tiny bathroom with no bathtub. It wouldn’t keep us from coming back, but worth mentioning. All-in-all I’d call it a win…

Fall weekend get away!
Everything was great except we arrived late in the evening and the heat was not turned on. Cabin did not heat up until into the following day. Only one extra blanket in the cabin. . So glad we had a couple in a car. But it was so so cold that first night.
