Big Bear Lodge 🐻🐾, On Lake w/Private Beach & Tiki Bar 🏖 Wi-fi & Dish Network!

****New Listing on VRBO!!! Check out our reviews on the other popular vacation rental website!!!*****

Plan your next family-friendly adventure at Big Bear Lodge on Vaughn Lake in Glennie, Michigan. With enough space to sleep up to 16 people and proximity to several outdoor adventure activities, Big Beal Lodge is the perfect retreat for family getaways, bachelor/ette parties, hunting trips, and everything in between.

The space
Michigan best kept secret in Glennie! Make yourself at home in this cozy, yet spacious 2,200 sq. ft. 3-story lodge. Comfortably accommodate your entire group with three bedrooms and a large loft space. The three bedrooms have a queen bed and a private entrance to the second-story balcony. The loft space has six twin beds and a futon, perfect for larger groups or kids.

There’s no shortage of fun things to do at or nearby the lakehouse. Start your morning with sunrise views of the lake with your morning coffee on the 3rd-floor balcony while lounging on the hammock, feeling the cool breeze from the lake.

Grab the kayaks that are onsite for a leisurely row away from the shoreline. Then, spend the day fishing for that big catch to have for dinner later. You can also rent a Pontoon for $300 per day by booking it online through the Boatsetter website.

Have an afternoon around the fire-pit while the kids take a dip near the shore, just steps away. Don’t forget the life jackets.

Looking to take your adventure offsite? Trailheads located just down the street are great for snowmobiling or using your ORV. Or you can grab your golf buddies and for few rounds at Eagle Ridge Golf Course, located just a mile away. It’s one of several golf courses in the vicinity.

Explore the trails of Largo Springs with its breathtaking wildlife and panoramic views of the AuSable River, or book a canoe trip. History buffs can learn more about Northern Michigan’s rich history in the lumber industry at Lumberman’s Monument.

After an adventurous day out, sit around the fireplace while you catch up on your favorite show. There are two large TVs with Direct TV access in the main areas, so it’s easy to keep everyone entertained.

There’s also WiFi and a desk area available in case you need to slip away for work.

Summer mini trip

Kids had a blast with the beach and beach toys right off the back deck. Extra ac units in rooms were definitely put to use. Owner was easy to get in contact with when needed. Only issue was really one of my own doing and it was not writing down the code to get in before getting to the house as wifi is almost non exsistint until you go in and connect to theirs. I would also recommend bringing food with you as the one market there is limited compared to a Kroger. It was a nice family trip.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband, Justin, and I began renting our first cottage on North Lake when we were too busy with our kids summer sports to enjoy it with our family. Glennie has become such a popular up north vacation destination, we now own three houses in Glennie! We get so much joy from sharing our homes with guests, and love hearing reviews of how they are making the same memories our family has been able to enjoy since coming to Glennie!
