Peaceful villa on the sugar sand shores of Big Glen Lake!

Driftwood (Glen Craft Villas)

In a peaceful atmosphere with plenty of sunshine, Driftwood is ideally located with warm prevailing southwest breezes to our sandy beach and cooler north-westerns over our treetops. Surrounded with Michigan woods, right on the crystal clear waters of Big Glen Lake, yet located 1/2 mile from Glen Arbor and about 2 miles from Sleeping Bear National Park Dune climb this is the perfect spot to enjoy days at "home" and days out exploring the local area.

Smooth, softly sloping sand leads to Glen Lake, just outside your door. Children love it, and adults can relax alongside them. Children can even wade all the way to the anchored raft. We also have a lakeside firepit with log stools, a dry sauna, small laundry facility, tennis court, row boat, paddle boards, shuffle board court, beach chaise lounge chairs, basketball, and archery range. The very large beach is shared with two other villas but never crowded.

Driftwood features a full kitchen, combined living/dining room with wall of windows for pristine lake views, fireplace and vaulted ceilings, a full bath and three bedrooms: one with a queen size bed, one with twin bed, and one with built-in bunk beds. There is also a pull out queen size sofabed.
