Wonderful Weather and Days of Fun!

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: Once again, Bookhaven delivers a memorable vacation experience for our family! We've been coming back to Brookhaven 2 with our family for about 13 years and it's always been delightful. The kids enjoy time on boats on both lakes, we love our morning lakeside coffee and evening sunset drinks by the shore... Add a cozy campfire, star-gazing and the soft sound of the waves at night. A great location and a perfect base for adventures around the area, too!We appreciated the well-kept condition of the cottage-- stocked with plates, flatware and supplies as described. Towels were fresh, bathrooms spotless, fridge and kitchen clean as well-- and ice was made! All appliances functioned well-- including the newer gas range and the heating unit (we did have one chilly night, appreciated the extra blankets too!). A lamp in the twin bedroom didn't light-- so maybe needs repair?-- but that's all that seemed amiss.We'll be back!

Another terrific stay!

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 was my 2nd stay at Brookhaven and I enjoyed it just as much as the first! Visit Up North continues to provide excellent customer service too! Before my arrival, the Team verified that I received my access information and encouraged me to reach out with any questions or concerns. I did have one small maintenance issue: A corner of the screen on my porch came out. The Team ensured that it was quickly and correctly repaired. (That made my day because I was enjoying using the porch!).The cabin itself is 'no frills' but it is clean, comfortable and well-maintained. The photos are accurate and the location is convenient for exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes, Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, the shops and restaurants in Glen Arbor and so much more. Big Glen Lake is crystal clear and the private lake shore is just the right depth for all ages to enjoy. One note: on the private portion of the shore, the floor of the lake is a bit rocky. It doesn't bother me but some people might prefer to wear water shoes.Brookhaven is a great place to share time with family and friends. It is close enough to explore new things yet far enough to avoid traffic and crowds while bonding with your peeps.

Beautiful Lakeside days and star-filled silent nights

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: So appreciate this lovely space-- glad we discovered it years ago. Our family has been coming here over a decade-- a great growing-up experience for our kids! Each remembers their first kayaking trips, paddling into Brooks Lake to see the herons, otters, and turtles, the bonfires, making s'mores and chatting with other families, the stars-- and Northern Lights over the lake at night. We love all there is for us to do and what a lovely place to just not do anything this is. The upgrades are appreciated too!

Nice place later in the summer

This is a genuine lakeshore cabin with a 1950’s feel. Small but comfortable with great access to Lake Glen. Lots of construction happening for first day and half so quite noisy but got more peaceful after work was done. Seems we were the first guest of the summer and they weren’t quite ready for us. Host was helpful with suggestions of places to go and things to do. Had a great hike among the dunes.

Very tiny shower, barely manageable. Very quaint and small, but quite nice, old school for sure. Beautiful setting on the water with gorgeous views.

Glen Lake

Great place to relax and enjoy the sunset, it rained some while we were there but didn’t dampen our experience. Sleeping Bear Dunes just down the road and good pizza from Bears Paw.

Best cabin experience we've had so far!

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: My husband and I recently stayed in one of the cabins on Brookhaven and were super impressed with it. Everything was clean when we arrived and the cabin had everything we needed to make some really nice meals. We didn't have to haul our kayaks with us and enjoyed fishing and exploring and fishing on the water with some kayaks available to everyone. Will definitely be back next summer and would come back again this year if the space were available :)

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Always love a visit to this place! Quiet, beautiful and relaxing. Our family comes every year for the past decade. The cottage is comfy and CLEAN, the new heater kept us cozy on the chilly night (and we appreciated the text reminding us how to use it!) the lake was warm and clear, the campfires were safe and socially distanced, and our visit was safe and wonderful! We’re already booked again for next year!
