Beautiful one, two, and three bedroom condo rentals on a sprawling white-sand Lake Michigan beach in a quiet, tranquil setting in Door County, WI. All units face the water and all are equipped with full kitchens, gaslog fireplaces, two-person spa tubs and most anything else you may need for a peaceful get-away or a family gathering. For those who can't leave their work behind, we provide free Wi-Fi Internet access throughout the resort. Forgot your laptop? No problem. We have a business center at your disposal off the lobby. Throw in an indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, fitness room and tennis court, and you can be as active as you want. Or just sit back with a good book while listening to the waves lap the shore. Donny's Glidden Lodge Restaurant is right next door and serves dinners only. Open year-round.

EXCELLENT location, private beach on Lake Michigan, sunrise views, large spacious rooms, GREAT location for getting anywhere in Door County from Sturgeon Bay to Washington Island. Indoor pool is clean and nice place for if you get a bad weather day. Each family had 2 bedroom condo units and it was was really great for space!

We get together with family at least once a year here, and love it every time. Clean, quiet, and you can't beat the morning coffee views of the water. The grounds are lovely, and the beach is too - We look forward to our next stay already!

Thank you for your review. The morning sunrise from your private patio/deck is beautiful isn't it? It's wonderful to overlook the beach, grounds, and of course, Lake Michigan. We will be happy to see you again.

A gem of a place to stay, completely relaxing, and there isn't a better view you could ask for! The suite are so comfortable, clean, well kept, and the staff is friendly. I've stayed at Glidden Lodge several times- this will certainly not be the last.

Nothing but the best! We come to this resort every year. Small resort but perfect for our family. Kids always enjoy themselves even during rainy days since they have a small pool. You have to make reservations way in advance as it gets booked fast especially for summer time and holidays.

This just might be our new favorite place and make it our go to for lodging. Room was very clean and spacious. Kitchen was well stocked. I am a very picky person and they met many of our expectations. View was wonderful, great location. Props to housekeeping The only thing, for us , was in the king size room the blinds are not black out and they don't close all the way , so at 5 am we were up because it was very bright in thr room. We fell back to sleep , but that was the only thing that was an issue for us. Staff was friendly. But, my husband recalls that he put down we were coming in for our 25th anniversary on the reservation and if anyone states they are coming there to celebrate a special occasion, they should acknowledge it when they greet you. Overall, though highly recommend Hope to see how it is in the fall. Also wanted to add, per some of the negative reviews here, it is your responsibility to read the state's and locations policy for Covid Safety Policies , before you go.out and start traveling. It os not fair to these businesses you give 1 or 2 stars because they are not wearing masks etc. , Especially if the entire city or states lifted restrictuons as optional. If you did read it and still choose to go, that is even worse to give anyone a bad review because of that.…

Thank you Christine. We are so glad we made your favorites list! I will let housekeeping know that you were pleased with their services. The blinds in the bedroom are room darkening but I'm sorry that they weren't black out blinds. I'm glad you got back to sleep. Happy belated Anniversary. Sorry you didn't hear that at arrival. Normally we make a point to say this when it's noted in our files. We hope to see you again real soon.

The room was clean and the view was spectacular! The staff was welcoming and I truly enjoyed my time there as restful. Door County is a wonderful place to get away - with plenty to do after you get rested up!

The Wife and I stayed at Donnie Glidden's Lodge for 5 days, 19 thru the 23rd of April 22. We have stayed here in the past and knew what to expect. We were not disappointed. The 2 bedroom 2 bath condo had a fantastic view of Lake Michigan. The rooms were clean and bright. Ice already made. Door County Coffee in the room. Perfect. And Glidden's Lodge Restaurant was even better. Eat there four out of the five nights. The staff ( Herbie, Rachel, Genevieve, Tim and his Wife, along with the rest I observed ) were professional and very accommodating. I suggest that if you wish to request a window seat overlooking the Lake as you dine, make it at the time of your reservation. We arrived slightly earlier than our reservation time, informed the Hostess we were present and that we would be at the bar when our table was ready. Worked perfectly.... And the food & service was superb! We will surely be returning.....…

We just returned from a 3-day stay at the Glidden Lodge Beach Resort. This was our first visit here. We loved everything about this place. Our unit was clean, and the kitchen was stocked with every cooking utensil and pot you could imagine. We had 2 other couples join us for lunch and card game on Thursday afternoon. The staff provided us with a larger table (we had a one-bedroom unit) and 2 extra chairs so that everyone was comfortable. And of course, dinner at Donny's Glidden Lodge was wonderful as always. I hope we can come back soon.
