    We stayed 2 nights as part of a 2 week holiday travelling around Lake Michigan. Hosts were extremely friendly and very helpful in telling us what there was to do in the area. Being from the UK, we're always suprised at the high standards of B&B's in the US and Glen Arbor was no exception. Its located in town within easy walking distance of many very good restaurants. Highly recommended.

    This was our second visit to the Glen Arbor Bed and Breakfast. This time we stayed in Dean's Cottage which is a small cottage behind the Inn. We enjoyed having the extra space with the kitchen and small living room, but the upstairs loft was a little cramped with it's angled ceiling (for someone over 6' tall). Jody and Brian are fantastic innkeepers and always keep the conversation lively and are very helpful with suggestions and ideas for activities, The breaksfast's are wonderful and Jody happily shares her recipes! We look forward to visiting again.

    We made our first trip to the area and stayed at the Glen Arbor B&B. Not knowing what to expect, we were overwhelmed by the hospitality of our hosts and the charming accomodations. This little B&B was one of the highlights of the trip. Thanks so much Jody and Brian!

    We had a wonderful stay at the Geln Arbor B&B - nice accomodations, great food, and exceptionally nice and helpful hosts. There is a wonderful, big porch for relaxing and it is well situated for seeing the Sleeping Bear Dunes.
