We loved this cabin! It had everything we needed, was clean, and comfortable. We also greatly appreciate that's dog friendly. Thank you for letting us stay there! It was just the getaway we needed to relax and unplug from the rest of the world. We hope to be back in the near future!

Cabin in the woods

Such a great property to stay. The cabin was clean, and the owner made the stay personable with children books, a wagon full of beach stuff, and cozy blankets. The beds are extremely comfortable. There is a nice enclosed sitting area with lots of seating. The cabin had air conditioning if you wanted it. Overall, we would definitely stay again!

Adorable and cozy home away from home!

Monique’s cozy cabin was the perfect getaway! She was very attentive to any and all possible questions we had, but also provided a wealth of I do for us so we knew what to pack! Additionally, there were so many games and activities to unwind with after a day of exploring the beach and local area. If you’re considering staying here, book it now!

Perfect Family Getaway

The cabin was the cleanest rental we’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at! I loved that we didn’t have to bring paper products, kitchenware and utensils, towels, and bedding! Not sure where I would have fit all that stuff in my vehicle which our toddler and dog in the back. We had a great time in the area and saw a ton of wild birds and deer! We went to the beach a few times, drove up to the state park for the dog beach, and even visited the local splash pad multiple times. It was just the long weekend away we needed!

We had a really nice stay at this cottage. The pictures are accurate and it is a very comfortable home! We appreciated all the items that were stocked for us, such as bath towels, coffee and filters, toilet paper and paper towels. The linens on the beds were very nice and we had plenty of blankets and pillows. Mattresses were comfortable too! There were beach toys (and a wagon), camping chairs and even beach towels. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals all week, including many condiments and cooking oils! That was a very nice surprise - we usually have to buy all those items for the week. The neighborhood was very quiet and we appreciated being on a closed loop street with young kids. The walk to the beach was also very quiet and only about 10-15 min. Both beaches were very nice and we spent most our time at the larger one. The closest state park was only 30 min up the road (Tawas), complete with a lighthouse to tour. There were so many details about this cottage that we appreciated and it is obvious the owner has taken care to make it feel like home. The bikes for use were also a nice surprise - they are adult size so only our 10yo could use one, but it was still fun! Thanks for a lovely stay!

Beautiful cabin, in a quiet neighborhood but you still get that quiet woodsy country feeling. We went to the private beach and pretty much had it all to ourselves. Monique definitely thought of everything inside so don’t stress if you forgot to pack something, more than likely she has it stocked. Very helpful and fast communication as well. 10/10

Nice owner

We had a nice stay at this cabin. The town of au Gres is cute and close to tawas, we spent a day in tawas national park which is a nice beach and the next day we went to mackinaw which was a slight distance but that’s ok. We did check out the Beach near the house it was smaller and we didn’t spent much time here. The anchor pub near the house was good! The owner was very kind and I appreciated her quick responses to issues and questions. The check in and out was Simple. We used their bikes once and their kitchen cooking supplies. For a quick trip this cabin was nice.

Charming, quiet, little lake town!

We loved our stay!! This quiet lake community nestled on Lake Huron was idealistic for a relaxing, low key vacation! We didn’t want the hustle and bustle of a big city or touristy place. This was EXACTLY what we were looking for! The house is a couple streets back from the lake, just a very short drive! The beach we had access to was not busy at all. Most days we were the only ones there. The lake itself was gorgeous! Beautiful, blue, clean, clear and cool… but not too cold to swim in. You could walk out forever and it was still knee deep! Very kid friendly. The house itself was clean, cozy, and quaint. The hostess had so many fun things there to use! We had bonfires, played cornhole, volleyball, football, rode bikes, relaxed in a hammock, and of course relaxed on the beach! The hostess really did supply everything we needed and wanted! She also included suet cakes for the birds and it was very fun watching all the wild life! I would recommend this house and hostess to anyone!

Very clean, comfy and peaceful property. Access to two private beaches is about a 5-10 minute walk away (there’s also ample parking at the larger beach if you prefer to drive there). Monique was a very kind and helpful host!

Nice Area

My grand daughter and I enjoyed our stay at the cottage. There were nice extras like fresh coffee and chocolates. The beds were super comfy. It was nice having extra apps on the TV to watch. The only downside was a mouse was running around. I know it's a wooded area and these things happen.
