On clear days, you may even catch a glimpse of the distant Fox Islands from this serene Good Harbour Bay retreat. Ideally situated between Leland and Glen Arbor, the home is just a 10-minute drive to historic Fishtown and 20 minutes to Glen Arbor’s charming shops and grocery stores. A local farm-to-table bakery is also about 20 minutes away.
The spacious covered deck is sure to become a favorite gathering space—perfect for relaxing in the comfortable seating area or enjoying a meal at the outdoor dining table. Roll-down shades offer a welcome break from the sun without sacrificing the lake breezes or the peaceful rhythm of the waves.

The 100 feet of private frontage includes sandbars, beach gear, a fire pit, and a seating area close to the water. Four kayaks and life jackets are included for your use.
