Welcome to northern Michigan, where our wintertime weather can swing from glorious to ferocious in a flash. Each of our properties has snow removal service scheduled to plow with each snowfall amounting to at least 3 inches of snow. If the vehicle you bring is not 4-Wheel or All-Wheel Drive, please be aware of the potential risks accessing the property when snow is present.

The Neighborhood:
You can walk to Glen Lake and have public lake access! A wagon and chairs are provided for you to stroll over to a nice little beach day.

The town of Glen Arbor started as a trading post in 1848 and thrived during the 19th century due to the demand for lumber for constructing housing and fueling passing ships. Increased traffic in the Great Lakes resulted in several shipwrecks so a US Life Saving Station was established in 1901. Glen Arbor is reachable via the M-22, which is considered to be the USA's most scenic drive in fall.

Getting Around:
For longer stays, all Golden Swan properties, and our lowest pricing, please find us at goldenswanmgt.

Other Things to Note:
Please Note: All guests staying at this property must be 25 or older unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. This will be verified after booking confirmation.

A damage waiver fee is required by Golden Swan for each stay. For this property, the fee is $129 and provides our guests with accidental damage coverage up to $2000. If the amount of damage exceeds this, or if the damage is found to have occurred with malicious intent, Golden Swan retains the right to seek damages beyond that amount.

Dogs are allowed with an additional fee, with a maximum of 2 dogs. Please be advised that it is absolutely imperative for all renters to keep their dogs on a leash at all times. While we truly appreciate and value pets, ensuring that our furry friends are leashed or properly secured is of utmost importance to us.

Marathon weekend

This was a good location that was central to neighboring towns. We were a family with children. The house accommodated most of our needs. The one thing I would suggest is at least a 2nd tv. With 10 people and some were children it was limited to what and when we shared the tv. House was clean and great communication with host.
