About this property

Romantic and Cozy Lake Huron Cottage

Wake up to breathtaking Lake Huron sunrises and watch freighters glide across the horizon. Our cottage is a romantic 1-bedroom, 1-bath, cozy space just north of Harbor Beach and has been completely renovated to blend classic cottage charm with clean, comfortable modern amenities, including air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, a Weber Kettle charcoal grill, and a fire pit.

Step outside and enjoy your secluded sandy shoreline area, complete with a fire ring for relaxing evenings by the lake. It’s the perfect place for morning coffee, evening fires, and serene views of Lake Huron, local wildlife, and the Harbor Beach Lighthouse.


Harbor Beach Marina, located within one of the world’s largest man-made harbors, offers public boat launches and slips. The Harbor View Trail, a non-motorized pedestrian and bike path, connects the marina area with parks, the beach, and downtown—and convenient trail access is located at the end of our street.
Spend the day at Judge James H. Lincoln Memorial Park, where you can enjoy pier fishing, sandy beach swimming, kayak launch, a playground for the kiddos, and seasonal community events and concerts.

Explore the Grice House Museum, stroll through the quaint lakeside town of Harbor Beach, or take a guided tour of 1885 Harbor Beach Lighthouse (only available during the summer season).

See website below for updated listings of local events:

Ready for a day trip exploring nearby towns? Follow the Lake Huron shoreline to Port Hope, Grindstone City, Caseville, and Port Austin, or book a fishing charter and experience the beauty of Lake Huron from the water. Bad Ax (located approx. 19 miles away) offers a larger array of shopping and dining options.
Your Stay.

Guests have private use of the home and outdoor grounds, including the sandy waterfront area and fire ring. Settle in, slow down, and enjoy the best of Michigan’s Thumb—fresh lake air, incredible sunrises, freighters on the horizon, and laid-back lake-town living.

Important Waterfront Notice
The property sits directly on Lake Huron and includes a sandy shoreline area; however, due to current lake levels and natural shoreline vegetation, access to the water directly from the property is currently restricted for swimming, wading, and launching watercraft. Shoreline conditions are natural and may change throughout the season.

Guests can still enjoy the secluded sandy beach area, fire pit, beautiful lake views, wildlife, and spectacular Lake Huron sunrises!

Stayed here for 2 nights and wish we had more time to stay longer. This was a great place to go to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and slow it down some. It's a lovely, clean little cottage that offers some spectacular sunrises on the lake. We did try to communicate with the host (mostly to say hi and see about check out procedures since this was our first VRBO experience), but did not hear back until after we checked out due to some understandable personal circumstances. Overall it was a great stay and experience! Thanks for hosting Joe!

The beach area is pretty much unusable. No access to the lake due to high weeds. Pictures were misleading as no weed growth was shown. We wanted a good place for overnight comfort which we did get. So our stay was still okay as we were not too interested in the beach or lake. We had thought we would have at least a good view of the lake. Nearly invisible from the back yard.

This cottage was just what we were looking for. The kitchen was stocked with a few cooking pans, dishes, silverware, glasses, and a few spices. The combo washer dryer was nice. All in all a nice stay.
