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!

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.

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!

Just a relaxing weekend away. Explored the area without crowds. Nice to come "home" to a place to call our own, if even just for a few days. We could relax, read, watch TV or whatever. Highly recommend this host and cottage.

Quick visit
Home was impeccable and hosts were extremely helpful. Unfortunately, the weather was freezing and it was difficult to stay warm. We tried to walk to end of street to get a glimpse of Lake Huron but a neighbor rudely informed us it was private property. There wasn’t another sole around -all we wanted was a Quick Look as it was too cold for anything else. Perhaps in the warmer weather it’s easier to get beach access and the welcome book did give directions to beach but at that point we were put off and too cold to venture out. The pictures of place were very accurate and I’m so happy to have stayed in such a beautiful home but the surrounding area was not what we expected. However, if I ever needed a place to stay in this area I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place.

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!

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.

Clean and comfortable, nice getaway!
The cottage was all it was advertised to be. Very clean, everything you could need was provided. We struggled with getting the air on and the owner responded right away with an instructional video. Beautiful view of Lake Huron from the balcony and a close drive to town. We would return and I have suggested this property to friends.

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!

Cozy Cottage
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!

Quiet Lake Huron get away
We thoroughly enjoyed this cozy, relaxing loft cottage for an extended weekend away from the kids. The rental was spotless with comfy bedding and thoughtful details at every turnto make our stay more pleasant. Although situated in a residential neighborhood, it remained very quiet and the beautiful wooded lot reminded us we were up north. The sandy beach was worth the short walk with crystal clear water and very few people.
