Lake Huron Cottage

My husband and I had a wonderful time staying in this cottage. It was very clean and comfortable. It is located about 10 minutes from downtown Tawas and even though it is not on the water with a short walk there is access to a sandy beach. Also, our host was great, they went out of their way to make our time enjoyable. We will definitely stay there again.

Lovely place to stay

My husband and I really needed a relaxing place to stay. This cottage was perfect. I’m very fussy about our accommodations ( I have been known to check in and check out after walking into other places) . This cabin is elegant. The owners are wonderful.

Return Visit

My family returned this summer and it felt like coming home. This is a clean beautiful cottage in a quiet neighborhood to rest and relax. It is not far to the beach for some fun there. The town of East Tawas is a few miles away. There is always something to do if you want. If you like this area you will not regret staying here.

Dream home near the lake

This home is decorated beautifully and stocked with everything you could possibly need. With a short walk to the beach, the hosts gave us everything from chairs to a cooler/picnic gear. The communication with the hosts was supreme. Perfect place for those looking for an extended stay. I am already looking forward to coming back!

Quaint cottage

Completely impressed with cottage. Cleanliness is extremely important to us and this was just what I hoped for. It was well furnished in all areas of the cottage. Loved the deck to watch the morning sunshine and the evening end. Close proximity to town and the state park which had nice beach area. A pleasure to stay here.

Beautiful cabin and awesome location

My husband and I stayed for the week with our adult daughters visiting for the weekend. This was a very clean cabin with a nice layout. The location is close to things to do but also very quiet. We felt like we were all on our own. The owners are nice and reach out occasionally to check on how things are going. We would definitely stay here again. It felt like home!

Our stay was just amazing. Such a cute house with everything you need. The beautiful beach is just a short walk away and is so relaxing. The hosts were so sweet to leave some chocolate and wine. It was also very nice to have the use of the wagon and beach supplies in the storage shed. Everything was pristine and we loved it. Thank you to the most wonderful hosts!

Well maintained, adorable, clean, cozy cottage

My spouse and I enjoyed this peaceful cozy cottage, the greeting of a bottle of wine and some locally made chocolate were a nice touch. The chocolate was so good we visited the store and purchased more. The home was very clean, very much updated and functioned well. Had all the items we needed, LOVE that coffee maker! The guest book with suggestions, menus, and maps helped us a great deal for both local food establishments and sites to visit was incredibly helpful. The Tawas city beaches and town were very clean. The owners were readily available but were not needed.Thank you for a wonderful stay! We would definitely stay here again!

Lovely Lake View Cottage

This cottage was perfect for me. It was very nicely furnished and decorated just like the photos show. The beds were comfy, the view was very pretty from the upstairs balcony and it was such a short drive to the marina and our boats, to the State Park and also to downtown. The kitchen was well equipped and the upstairs 1/2 bath was very convenient. All in all very cozy, comfy and beautiful. I will be coming back soon!

Summer fun in East Tawas

This was a very cheerful, newly updated rental with many thoughtful features. We enjoyed its location with its wooded setting and ate dinner every night on the upper level deck with a partial view of Lake Huron. The private beach was a six minute walk away, and we also enjoyed the state park beach which was five minutes away by car. All together, a great week!

We thoroughly enjoyed this quaint, cozy, relaxing loft cottage for an extended weekend away before the 4th of July. The cottage was so much better than the pictures with its awesome décor. It was very comfortable with all its furnishings which were beyond belief, including a very comfortable bed. Everything made our stay oh so pleasant. We enjoyed the balcony, the short walks to Lake Huron and a peaceful wooded neighborhood even though it is a holiday weekend. We would stay here again. I would highly recommend this cottage!

beautiful cottage in lovely location

This loft cottage was exactly as described on the website, the loft bedroom (with its own half bath) easily accessible with a regular staircase, convenient even for older guests. Good lighting. Great star gazing from deck off the loft, with east view toward Lake Huron. Beach access is around the corner and down a few short blocks, convenient for walking. All in all, a very relaxing place, beautifully designed. Owners are gracious and quick to respond to messages.
