About this property

Lake Huron Hideaway - Unwind, Relax, and Connect

Make memories in our cozy and peaceful home nestled in tall pines, just outside of Rogers City, Michigan. Our house was built in the 1950's, and we renovated it with stylish mid-century modern touches. The updated kitchen has a gas range and oven and stainless steel cookware, great for cooking and eating in. The house is stocked with high quality linens, bedding, and towels, and we strive to make sure you have the essential ingredients for an enjoyable and relaxing stay. There is a downstairs bedroom and upstairs sleeping loft, and lovely spaces to congregate inside and out. The house can comfortably accommodate a maximum of six guests.

The Hideaway is located a half-block away from the sandy beaches of Lake Huron and directly across from Hoeft State Park. Indoors we have a game room - with pingpong and foosball - and outdoors you will find a custom-built fire pit, grill, hammock, and outside dining area.

In summer, hit the beach and swim, paddle, or sail on Lake Huron. Set out for a walk, hike, bike, or run on miles of public trails, beaches, and paved paths just outside the door. Explore nearby shipwrecks and lighthouses. In the fall, revel in the gorgeous changing leaves, and visit the nearby nationally acclaimed apple orchard and cidery. Come winter, access miles of groomed cross country ski trails just across the street, or head to the other trails in the area, including Black Mountain. In spring, look for morels and enjoy the crisp nights and warming days.

We love traveling with our dogs, and we welcome your dogs, too! The backyard is enclosed with a fence, so if your dog is not a digger (meaning under the fence) or a jumper (meaning over the fence), he or she can also enjoy off-leash outdoor vacation time in the backyard. We have dog food and water bowls for your use, along with eco-friendly pick-up bags.

Due to the location of the home, there is no cable television (although we do have two TVs with DVD players and a nice collection of movies), cell service is limited, and we do not have internet or wi-fi. Many of our guests welcome the peace and tranquility that comes with not having cable or internet and the opportunity to unwind, relax, and connect with one another. We have a land line phone for your use.

Happy Travels!!

Loved this cottage!

This quaint little cottage was just perfect for our needs. It was clean, nicely decorated and had EVERYTHING we could have needed. the kids loved the ping pong and foosball tables. It kept them quite busy. The fenced in yard was nice for the dogs. Nice location, and we enjoyed our stay even with the cold snowy weather. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Perfect Vacation Location!

My husband and our son and daughter-in-law celebrated our July birthdays at this very clean, comfortable, spacious, and perfectly located home in a peaceful neighborhood adjacent to P.H. Hoeft State Park. We loved being just steps from the beautiful sandy beach, walking the nature trails at the State park, and hopping on the Huron Sunrise Bike path just down the road. Only 2 miles north to 40 Mile Point Lighthouse Point / Park and about 6 miles south to Rogers City along the gorgeous shore and though many parks. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals.The single bathroom was spacious with plenty of counter space/ drawers for the four of us. Plenty of towels and linens, including beach towels. We enjoyed playing Ping Pong and dining Al Fresco in the private, shady backyard and relaxing around the fire pit at night. Taking the early morning "chill" off with the fireplace was cozy! This place is a Hidden Gem. We definitely plan to return!

Beautiful home/location

Lovely home! Plenty of entertainment at the house…books, games and movies. The private beach was just a walk away. Loved being able to unplug and step away. In Town we enjoyed The Painted Lady where we were greeted by the kind owners and enjoyed ice cream and Coffee. We highly recommend checking out Barilik’s 406 Cafe, breakfast was amazing. We would definitely come back again.

Just Perfect!

We wanted to move in permanently! The cottage is quiet and just a very short walk to the beach, with a great back yard equipped with everything you could want. Inside, it’s charming, comfortable, super clean, and well stocked with what you need to cook, or entertain yourself on a rainy day. We especially liked the amenities for our dog; towels, treats, poo bags, dishes, etc.

Perfect Cozy Getaway

The Huron Hideaway was wonderful! The cottage is adorable, cozy, and has everything we needed and wanted. It is steps away from Lake Huron and the state park.

Huron Hideaway

We had a wonderful stay at Huron Hideaway. It was beautiful, clean, and cozy. It was also furnished very well. We loved the selection of books, games (indoor and out), the dvd selections, and the vinyl! The pieces of retro decor were so much fun! We also enjoyed the location so close to the beach. Beautiful walks, bike rides, and sunrises! The welcoming basket was also enjoyed! Would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Sunrise side 8/24-31

Our family vacations have always been on the west side, we decided to change it up this year. It helped to stay at such a nice property, with everything well thought out and provided. A nice selection of movies, vinyl, books and games. We brought a few of our own favorites too. A short stroll to the beach, nestled between private properties, we were able to view some stunning sunrises and the blue supermoon rising as well! Plenty of other public beach areas close by, and just a short drive to Rogers City, or up to Cheboygan, where we spent our one rainy day at the movies and did the shipwreck tour on a better day. Our week went by too quick, but we hope to be back next year!
