Glen Lake is a lake locate in Leelanau County in the U.S. state of Michigan. Several villages and hamlets lie along or near its shore, including Burdickville, Glen Haven, and Glen Arbor. The lake actually consists of two large bodies of water connected by a narrow channel passing under a state route 22 bridge. The larger body to the east being referred to as "Big Glen Lake", and the smaller body to the west as "Little Glen Lake". The two bodies are hydrologically the same, and collectively referred to as Glen Lake. The total surface area of the two bodies are 4,865 acres (20 km²) and 1,400 acres (6 km²), with maximum depths of 130 feet (40 m) and 12 ft (4 m) respectively. There was a point in time where the lakes were actually the same depth but the sand from the Sleeping Bear Dunes has slowly filled in little Glen. Big Glen Lake is nearly perfectly round, while Little Glen is more elongated.
