We very much enjoyed our stay, from coffee and breakfast on the cozy porch to watching the deer in the back as we prepared for a campfire! It’s close to the beaches in Oscoda, and East Tawas, Round and Sand Lake , areas we enjoy and Island Lake where we once enjoyed a family cottage! The cottage was clean and inviting! Extra special that our two dogs could stay also!
