5 minutes from Downtown East Tawas, On The Rocks is a cottage on Lake Huron

On The Rocks is a relaxing cottage located on Lake Huron. Come enjoy the view of the water, the morning sunrise, and relax in the sunshine during the day or by the fire pit in the evening. Only 5 min north of downtown East Tawas. Quite, private setting. Enjoy the BBQ or head into town and let some else do the work for you. Just minutes away from the state park with a great beach and lighthouse.

Within a 5 minute drive to downtown and you will find amazing restaurants, great shopping, putt putt, ice cream, great beachs and parks. Don’t forget to visit the Tawas Point light house. Or head north 5-10 minutes into Oscoda.

We wanted a short get away just to relax and get away from everyday life. This Vrbo hit the spot. The best part of the whole weekend was listening to the waves hit the rocks right outside of the door. Wonderful weekend. Great hosts.

Dream cottage!
Beautiful view right on the water We could hear the waves at night with the windows open. The owners thought of everything needed to make guests feel at home. Great use of space, and a very well executed update of an older lake cottage. Hosts were super easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

Amazing
The cabin was clean and comfortable. Like a home away from home. They really did think of everything to keep there. Cornhole on the beach was fun. The fire pit right in the sand. Great location right off the main road. And not a far drive from tawas or oscoda. I will be back.
