I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! It's so quaint and just feels like home when you walk in. The bookseller is so kind and it's definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful little book store, and friendly staff, marred by a LQBTQAARP flag on the front window. Not to mention a section of books that blatantly pushes a "woke" agenda.I saw multiple books and gifts in this book store that I would have purchased, had these issues not been present.

Leelanau County is full of wonderful independent bookstores, and Cottage Book Shop serves Glen Arbor. You can always find best sellers and hidden gems. They also have a wonderful selection of local books, art, stationary and cards.

What an adorable book store! I wandered in looking for a book for my husband to read on our trip. The staff was so helpful with picking out a couple of options based on his favorite author- and he is really into the book they recommended. Would love to go back and browse more- great selection and charming store.

Super cute bookstore! And very popular - it was totally packed. There are multiple little nooks and crannies full of shelves and shelves of books. Cards, magnets, socks, plushies, totes, and other fun little accessories are distributed throughout. The kids room was a big draw and had plenty of things to explore. The little Yelper was excited to find the sequel to the book we had picked up at a bookstore in Traverse City, and I got several adorable reading magnets for my book cart. Staff was friendly.

my family and i came here not knowing what to expect. Glen Arbor is a surprisingly welcoming town and this bookstore is no exception. the staff were very friendly and helpful, going out of their way to look for a book that i was hoping to find. they have a vast array of books, as well as a great selection of stickers and other items, which is something i love in a bookstore. i would love to return to this store the next time i’m in town.

I have shopped at cottage book store for years. Staff are friendly and always ready to suggest great reads. I have never been disappointed in their recommendations.

Such a cute book store!!! Small, but had almost every beach read I was looking for. Staff were helpful. Parking outside is convenient also. Only downside is that the book store is on island time, so the hours aren't ideal if you're trying to grab a book early in the day before hitting the beach.

Super neat historical log cabin bookstore. The owner is pleasant and happy to share its history with you. Lots of books, something for everyone. Wonderful selection of Michigan themed books when you walk in, many you can’t get at the mass merchandise online places. That’s why I always stop in when I’m in the area. There’s also a kids section. Don’t pass this by, it’s a hidden gem and definitely worth a visit. I highly recommend Cottage Book Shop in Glen Arbor.

My favorite bookstore. I wish we had a bookstore like this near where I live. Quality books, games and gifts. A lovely place to browse, knowledgeable staff and quick ordering service. A real gem.

Couldn't give it less then 5 stars being the place has such good reviews and when I stopped here it was unfortunately closed. Would have loved to get another book for the collection, maybe next time. Still was cool to check out from the outside. Place forsure looks unique.
