Mama Bear

Mama Bear is the ideal location to experience the beauty of Northern Michigan. This A-frame chalet has direct, private frontage on Little Glen Lake and is located less than 5 minutes from the Village of Glen Arbor. Glen Lake's famous sandy bottom stays shallow for a long distance, making it the ideal lake for small children. The North Shore of Little Glen is kissed by sunshine all day and showcases breathtaking sunsets over the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes each night.

This cozy chalet accommodates up to 5 guests and offers everything you need for a comfortable and memorable stay.

Please note: the property owners live next door to the property and may make themselves available if needed.
