Super Cute, Great Location

Really enjoyed our stay in the quiet town of Glenn, Michigan. Our host was very nice and was a good local guide, her recommendations were great. House and appliances are a little old, but it makes up for that in it's charm and location! Would definitely come back!

Charming Cottage

We had a lovely stay at the Green Cottage. It was cozy, clean and far enough off the road for peace and quiet. I live in Chicago down the street from a firehouse and the sirens are earsplitting. My friend and I just wanted some quiet time, fresh air and some leaf peeping. The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. It is close enough to Crane's Pies (which you MUST DO) and down the street from Sunset Antiques. The stay was too short. I will be returning for a longer stay. Our host Irina was so awesome. She checked in on us and gave great suggestions for hiking. I loved it.

Perfect!!!

This cottage was more than enough for our family of five. Rest and relaxation is just what we needed and more of what we received. The location is just right. The host is awesome to work with and showered us with kindness I didn't expect. Thank you for allowing us to spend time at your lovely property and for being so graceful. This property lives up to all its glorious reviews.

Fabulous

This trip was perfection. The cottage is comfortable and adorable. The property is beautiful, with lots of birds serenading each morning. Easy access to many beaches and nearby towns. Irina was a most gracious hostess, who arranged everything I could want. She even arranged the weather to accommodate plenty of beach lounging, watching waves, and pretending to read. I highly recommend the little green cottage for a perfectly relaxing escape from real life.

Sweet Cottage

My mom and I stayed here so that we could go to the Michigan Fiber Festival at the Allegan County Fair Grounds. It was about a 30-minute drive to the fairgrounds which was fine for us. The cottage is just as pictured and was very clean and exactly what we needed. There were some really cute places nearby to check out (definitely go by Sunset Junque) and the host was absolutely amazing! Very helpful and provided lots of ideas for places to check out in the area. The property itself was super pretty and Mom and I had a little fire one night as well. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

Awesome Beach Towns

We had an awesome stay in South Haven. The property was clean and just as described. Our host, Irina was so sweet and kind. She makes home made wine for those who rent the cottage. We had the chance to meet her and she was lovely to talk to. She even left me fresh picked flowers one day and shared her fresh picked fruit with us. Couldn’t have asked for a better host. The area is very close to lots of beach towns and fun things to do. Lake Michigan is absolutely beautiful.

Quirky and comfy

This place was a perfect fit for our girls trip. The grounds were beautifully rustic and it was very quiet at night. The host Irina was in contact with us constantly and the check-in process was very easy. The only complaint was that did have a musty smell upon entry and there were some bugs, so probably not the best choice for those with asthma or respiratory issues. There is a dehumidifier to help with humidity and the host did respond when contacted about the bugs. We would definitely stay again!

Lovely experience and really great host!

We stayed for our summer vacation and it was great! Our host had really thought of everything and provided excellent tips and ideas in her notes and resources. We have two young boys (3 and 6) and they loved the farm that was suggested for a visit where they enjoyed playing with the barn cats and kittens. The location is great! We were in South Haven the most, which is a quick drive south down Blue Star. We were also able to get to other beach towns (Saugatuck, Holland, Douglas) and farmland areas (Fennville) with ease. The Glenn Store is super close and I walked it easily a few times - and their pizza is indeed good. The Glenn Restaurant has must-try biscuits and gravy. The house has a gorgeous yard. We saw wild turkeys and deer. The grill was easy to use! We were there during blueberry and peach season - amazing fresh fruit in every direction. The little ones appreciate the game/toy cabinet along with the large TV that had Netflix for them to enjoy. There were plenty of towels, dishes, and flatware. It was very easy to check out and the price for the area and the comfort worked with our budget. We hope we can stay again!

Restful Bliss in the Countryside

Thanks to the wonderful owner and her blissful property, my friends and I were able to rest and recharge. There was always something to do within a 30 minute drive, whether its beach, food, shops, apple/peach picking. All is fun and easy to access! The property itself is tranquil with a rich history something we enjoyed learning about during a tour by the owner. Seeing deer in the early morning was a joy and the amount of stars at night was breath taking!! Fully enjoyed our trip. Totally rate this experiance 10/10 Sidenote: Phoenix Cafe in South Haven (20 min from property) best food the entire vaca! Highly recommend to any visitors and definately will be returning!

Cozy cottage, near everything

Lovely green cottage nestled in a wooded area, plenty of space for my partner, my child, and myself. Our property renter had on site all of the necessities, cooking equipment, an Apple TV station, and was generous with a welcome gift of homemade wine! We spent several evenings around a cook fire, afternoons looking out over a well-maintained property with a lively field, and our kiddo saw their first deer one morning. A common enough experience, but it was nice to have that memory made here =) The location itself was within a 15 minute drive of lake towns, cideries, wineries, and an excellent petting farm for our little one. Will very likely be seeking the location again!

Cute and Quiet

Property off the beaten path somewhat. Sits between two cool towns, South Haven and Saugatuck so you get your pick. If you're looking for some beach time in Glenn, didn't find it. Owners were very helpful and informative. We would stay again if we're back in the area.
