Summary: The excellent location of the house within walking distance to everything in Glen Arbor and to the lake was the best part of this stay. The house is old and musty and the lack of AC is a bit miserable on hot days. We did enjoy the updated kitchen and the beds were very comfortable. The landscaping around the house could use some love but we did enjoy the front deck. Overall we had a great week here as we were only really in the house to sleep.
