Jeff was easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our stay at Lifes A Hoot. It was nicely decorated and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed watching the sunrise from the deck. We would definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay! Love the amenities, the view and location. One small suggestion would to clean the dead bugs on the beds upstairs. We chose the first floor bedroom instead for that reason. Everything else was excellent. We would stay and recommend to others!

Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the cabin, amenities, and beautiful views! We also appreciate you bringing the bugs to our attention. We had some ladybugs find their way inside with the seasonal weather change, and we’ve since taken care of the issue. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding. Thank you again for staying with us and for recommending Life’s a Hoot! We’d love to welcome you back for another great stay!

Nice and cute place. Thought this was on a beach and picture looked a bit deceiving. Also thought that there were truly 2 bedrooms but there are 2 beds separated by a door. So, not a lot of privacy but still enjoyed our visit.

The property was exactly as described. The view of the bay was beautiful. If you go in the summer and hope to swim, you’ll have to drive to a sandy beach. This is on a marshy stretch. We didn’t mind this at all as it was spring and we just wanted the view. The cabin delivered. The owner wad responsive and kind.

Great Girls Weekend

This place was perfect for my two sisters, my mom and me!! Great spot on the lake, close to shopping in Tawas City and the Saganing casino! Big enough for all of us to have our own space and to come together for our crafts, puzzles and meals!! Would stay here again!!

Wonderful Stay!

We had a short but wonderful stay at Lifes-A-Hoot. Such a cute place to stay. Beautiful views with lots of wildlife to be seen. A deer even walked up on us while we were watching the sunrise. The beds were very comfy. Anything we needed was there in the cabin. We will definitely stay again!
