Wake up to sunrises in this beautifully renovated beach front home on a quiet bay on Lake Huron. Perfect for families with a sandy beach; it is located just 10 minutes east of Port Austin, 5 minutes from Grindstone City's famous homemade ice cream, and a 1/2 mile from Point Aux Barques Lighthouse that has a playground and park.
This three bedroom, two full bath home sleeps 9 and features a new King bed in every room as well as twins for the kids or additional guests. There are also smartTVs in every bedroom, but hope you’ll be too busy enjoying the natural surroundings to turn it on.
This house is full of light with views of the lake from nearly every room. Keep comfortable inside with opening the two large slider's to capture the breeze off the lake or use the AC and Heat to keep cozy to your liking.
Cook with a view of Lake Huron on all new stainless steel appliances and a well-stocked kitchen. Or cook outside on the 36 flattop grill on the large cement patio elevated for a great view of the beach and bay. There are plenty of options for outside dining with an oversized picnic table that can fit 10 as well as an additional dining set on the patio.
Unwind around a fire pit on the beach under a sky full of stars in comfortable Adirondack chairs for all guests. We have marshmallow roaster sticks as well for all the S’more making you could want!
There are plenty of spaces to enjoy a nap or good book as the mature trees on the property offer the prefect combination of privacy and shade on the large 1/2 acre lot (this allows for plenty of room for parking too!).
For those rainy days or when you need a break from the sun the house has the garage set-up for ping-pong, art space for the kids to make a mess, yard games (ladder ball, corn hole, etc) and covered lounging.
Whether you’re here for sunny beach days or crisp fall mornings, Huron Bay House is the perfect retreat year-round. This house was built for family and we hope yours comes to stay!


***The bay we are located on is very shallow; you can walk out a football field’s distance on the sand bottom and only be chest deep. It can not accommodate prop boats; we have only seen kayaks, sail boats, jet-skis and flat bottomed fishing boats on it.
Also please note the beach is always changing, some days its a full sandy beach at the shore break; sometimes there is a line of muck. Good news is it can be gone over a wavy night or when the wind changes, but if it is present during your stay and muck bothers you may want water shoes or to walk down the beach a little bit to where its not. We do put a dock out to help with this when it occurs and have an outside foot washing station for sandy feet or sandy paws***

    This place is one of my favorites. The host thought of everything. The house is immaculately clean, the beds are super comfortable, and there's plenty of room. There are TVs in every bedroom, new appliances, and nice furnishings. Everything you need to cook with us in the kitchen. Such a homey and comfortable place!

    We had a great week at Christina's place! The check in and check out were easy and Christina was amazing at communication and making sure we had everything we needed! The only downside was the beach/water. There was a lot of muck at waters edge which made it nearly impossible for my 3 year old to play there. They do have a large sandy area away from the water and she was able to play there. And there were a ton of rocks in the water and it was difficult to even walk in in (this is something that the host can't control).

    Christina has created a wonderfully inviting home for her guests, and you'll feel like a very special guest at Huron Bay House. Originally, I opted for this home because of the outdoors space, which is fabulous, but the inside of the home is warm and welcoming. Thanks for the great vacation!

    We have had our share of adventures booking through VRBO but this one made up for all the others. Christina was the perfect host and her house is just as perfect. She has thought of everything and made the home so comfortable for all of us. We actually hardly left the house because everything we needed was right there, the lake, we cooked and our family. Leaving was just not necessary.Thank you, Christina for providing such wonderful accomodations, we had a wonderful week!! Everything you promised was there and then some. We cannot wait to return next year, counting the days already.

    Wonderfully comfortable house. King beds were a luxury for our 6'2 son! Labeled light switches were a great help, especially in the dark! Spent every evening in front of a glorious fire in the living room. Thrilling views of golden eagles and swans out on the lake. We had brought our own pet supplies but it was a lovely touch to have pet towels, treats and toys available.

    Everything was as described or better. The condition of the property was excellent even after a full summer season. The interior was well appointed and spotless. The location was great for tours up and down the Thumb coast. The fall colors were excellent, if not peak close to it. Enjoyed just sitting on the beach and patio watching sunrises and moon rises over the lake. Would definitely do this property again.

    Right on the beach- no cliff, no steps. Walk out to water, walk almost 1 mile on sandy beachfront. House was immaculate and very well supplied. Photos very accurate. A little over 10 minute drive to Port Austin- beware after Labor Day many restaurants closed. Neighborhood/street extremely quiet and peaceful- hardly saw any people. Great to sit on patio and enjoy views of Lake Huron. Furniture and beds comfortable.

    The view is awesome and the cottage is so cozy! Christina and her family are wonderful hosts. The house was extremely clean and very comfortable. The beds were super comfortable to sleep in as well. They really went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed our stay And sweet little gifts for our children to enjoy while we were there. They were extremely friendly and had a lot of things on hand that we needed for our young children such as a pack and play and highchair and lots of toys. A lot of times when you do a home rental, the owners provide the bare minimum of toiletry items and kitchen supplies. In this case, Christina and her family went above and beyond. The bathrooms even had infant Tylenol and first aid kits just in case. There were also plenty of pillows and towels, which was really helpful. She also had lots of different cooking supplies and spices that we were able to use which made things easier for us as well. The flat top grill outside was awesome. Our kids loved playing on the beach, and we really enjoyed taking walks on the beach as well. We would definitely consider staying there again and will recommend it to our friends and family members! Thank you !

    The inside of the house was beautiful- great layout, clean, updated, great decor, and amazing linens. It’s obvious that a lot of thought has been put into this vacation property. We enjoyed exploring the area of Port Hope and Port Austin. We had amazing weather so there was a lot to do … kayaking, shopping, checking out the lighthouse, and trying out some restaurants. (Although we ate most meals at the house and had everything we needed!) The only downside was that the beach was pretty much unusable for human swimming. There was a lot of natural debris and very, very thick and slimy muck at the shoreline and beyond for at least 20 feet. It also smelled rancid. We allowed our dogs to play in the water, but didn’t feel comfortable swimming in the water ourselves. That being said it is still a beautiful place to stay, close to the water in the thumb.

    The house was as good as it looked online! We absolutely loved our stay. By far the best supplied rental we’ve ever stayed at. The owner has thought of everything you could possibly need and has it. Super comfortable furniture and wonderful outdoor spaces. Truly a special place. The location was quiet but close enough to Port Austin to be convenient.!
