    We really enjoyed our stay. Convenient for going to the beach, going to town to eat and visiting the surrounding area. Cabin was well equipped. We had a fire in the firepit almost every night and used the grill once too. Thank you.

    The pictures are not update, accurate pictures of what the house looks like. The house has a terrible smell we could not quite figure out what it was. Their is only one window ac, in one bedroom, leaving the bedrooms stuffy. Could not even open the window, as it appears something was living between the screens. We only stayed one night, because it was too late to find anything else. We did not feel comfortable in the house at all. Not sure how other reviewers gave it a 10?

    The house was very nice and clean. Plenty of dishes, glasses, and pots and pans - they were a little old but serviceable. The neighborhood was very quiet except for the main road close by. Plenty of grocery stores within a few miles to pick up whatever you need. The beach was a few minutes walk away and nobody was there. Plenty of golf courses within a half hour of the house. The only negative I have is that the tub gets very slippery with the body wash they provide. There is poison ivy in the back of the property.

    Quiet neighborhood, close to the beach. Quaint cabin had everything we needed.Not far from Tawas, Lumbermans Monument and of course Largo Springs. There are many spots to view and visit along the shoreline of Beautiful Lake Huron(the sunrise side of the state)

    We had a wonderful time staying at the sweet house. Beds are comfy and 2 bathrooms when you have 2 teenage girls is a must!!! Minute walk to the beach which was perfect. So many shells to collect! House had everything we needed and plenty of room for the 4 of us. Would absolutely stay here again!

    We enjoyed our stay at the property. Loved having beach access just down the block and the convenience having grocery stores so close to the home. Great location that had easy access to the Air Museum and Lumberman’s Monument. The house was very clean and especially appreciated having 2 full baths in the home. Our daughter reported she would like to come back!

    Was great experience for my family and I. Everything we needed was available, except fans. The window units were great for the main room and the one bredroom but the other rooms were stuffy without fans or air.
