Encircled within beautiful hardwoods & located less than 7 miles from both Glen Arbor and Empire, The Little Perch is only a rock skip away from the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore & the Crystal River. We hope you'll enjoy the streamlined kitchen, full bathroom, comfortable 2 bedrooms (3 beds), private laundry tower, personal entrance & spacious parking. The Little Perch is a charming and exclusive upper level guest house, conveniently holding up to 4 guests! Please note, we live with our family in the home adjacent to the guest house. We strive to give our guests as much privacy as possible, but we want our guests to know that we will be on & around the property during your entire stay. The guest house is perched on an upper level; attached yet divided from our primary home. There's a set of 16 stairs to climb to reach the living space. It is completely separate from the main house: parking, outdoor eating & play area, entryway, mudroom, laundry and living/sleeping space are all private spaces for guest use & access. As you enter the driveway, you'll cross a beautiful stone bridge adorned with nighttime lighting. The driveway then splits into two; the main house on the east (left) side and the guest area towards the west (right) side. There's spacious parking (up to 2 vehicles) and a boardwalk which leads you directly to your private & secure entryway where you'll find a touchscreen keypad. Because of our secluded setting, you are able to safely store all of your bikes, kayaks, paddle boards and other personal equipment you may have brought along! We are located 1.5 miles south of Big Glen. Currently, there is a home workshop & pottery studio below the guest house. At times we might be in this space, or in the attached storage building. NO smoking/vaping allowed. NO pets. There is not a TV. You must be willing to wash your own dishes during your stay. *Also, please keep to the guest area & do not come to the main house. Our home is a place for our children to be children and guests are not allowed to come to our front porch, door, main house garage area, yard, etc. If you need assistance, please message or text.
