Perfect little A-Frame with all you need!
This cottage is the sweetest little property. We had such a good time at this location which is just off the bridge, directly on the AuSable river. You can watch the boats/tubers from the large deck with sofa, /chairs, or walk downtown, or visit the beach all by foot. The house is renovated in a luxurious way with fun decor. The beds and bedding are hotel quality. This house is very well-stocked and even had items we didnt even think about---bikes, canoes, bluetooth speaker, K-Cups, etc. The owner is close by and very willing to help. She invited us to use her waterfront and toys. Will certainly stay here again when visiting family in the area!

Best hosts ever!
We've stayed at rental properties all over, in this and other countries, and Jerry and Jen are probably the best hosts we've ever had. I was nervous about having the hosts right next door, but it turned out to be such a bonus as they were incredibly helpful and friendly and made us and our guests feel so welcome. The highlight of the trip for our kids was all the fun they had on the Maui mat that Jerry pulled out for them to use on the river! The house was was lovely, clean, and incredibly well-appointed...it had everything you'd need, and even some stuff you didn't realized you'd need! The location was perfect for quick bike rides into town for ice cream or the lake beach, fishing off the dock, or kayaking the river or boating to the lake. I can't recommend this place highly enough!

Jen & Jerry are 2 of the kindest people I’ve ever met and did everything to make our stay as wonderful as possible. The house was the perfect size for our family of 5, it was extremely clean and stocked with lots of things you would forget at home. The location on the river was awesome, the kids could have fished all day and didn’t want to leave. Thank you Jen & Jerry for your hospitality and an amazing place to stay, we’ll definitely be coming back!

Perfect river house
Our family loved this house. Being right on the river was amazing. All the extras available made it so much fun for the family. We were able to fish right off the dock and we were planning on tubing, but last minute since we had enough kayaks launched right at the house and went upriver and back down, much more convenient. We enjoyed the games on the deck along with several of the board games and even attempted one of the puzzles, but kept busy and never got a chance to finish it. Used the bikes to bike into town and beach. The bedding was comfortable and we were surprised to find a pullout sofa. Our 3 kids were all able to have their own beds. All of the amenities were top notch, like you would find at your own house, not a rental trying to cut corners. My phone port broke.....could not charge with my charger, I was rescued by the cordless chargers supplied. I can honestly say this was the most thoughtfully furnished house. They though of everything and it was there. Jerry and Jen were helpful in giving ideas and suggestions and we appreciated it. If we come back to the area, we would definitely stay again.

Loved the river front
Super cute A frame house, right on the Au Sable River. Nothing was missed in this house. My 12 yo fished from the back yard for 3 straight days and also magnet fished from the bridge. Very nice and accomodating owners. The only negative was the bathroom barn door slowly slid open all the time. There was a rope type lock but it didn't work great. But this could be an easy fix with a hook and eye lock. Overall, great experince at the river house. Perfect for friends or family.

Extended Weekend Stay
Stayed here with the wife and 2 year old for a long weekend. Very short drive to the beach, and about 15 minute drive to Tawas. Our 2 year old likes waking up in the middle of the night and wandering around, so she ended up sleeping downstairs on the couch instead of the upstairs bedrooms. There’s also a pullout couch on the main floor, so the space is very accommodating!
