Located on East Michigan - the straight road to the beach - this two bedrooms private home with 3/4 acrea lot is only 2 minutes to the lake and can comfortably accommodate up to 11 people at a time.
We have 2 queen beds in the master bedroom and 1 queen, 3 twin beds in the other. There is also 2 futons in the living room. As a home away from home, we provide you with plenty of linens and towels, even beach towels, so you can pack light for your travel. You will enjoy cooking meals in the kitchen which is fully equipped and offers a great view of the tranquil neighborhood through large glass windows.
You can curl up with a book, relax in the cozy living room and let the time fly by as you look up from the book only to gaze at the glorious sunshine of a beach front community. Enjoy walking or biking down to the beach, only steps away. Stroll down the warm sand of the beach and enjoy the feel of the cool lake waves splashing your feet while you are hunting for 'petoskey' stone, marine fossils and polished glasses.
AuGres is a town with a yesteryear atmosphere has an amusement park with water slide, Golf courses, state parks nearby allow hunting, fishing/ice fishing and snowmobiling in winter and "the best Ice cream parlor" in the whole Mid Michigan. Au Gres is also the country for cross country. There are several boat access sites to go boating or fishing on the pier. Here, you live close to the nature. Deer, wild turkey, hawks and eagles etc... on occasion come to the porch. Take long walk on the promenade beach, watch the sunrise/moon-rise and feel yourself immersed in the greatness of the Great Lake. Take a swim in the clear water of Lake Huron or simply sunbathe on its sandy shore. Right behind the property, a small wood with many native fauna and flora, such as the much protected "lady slippers" which flower around the summer solstice, invite you to the nature discovery.
In the winter time be prepared to participate in many winter sports (ice skating, hockey) or games right on the lake! ! There are many activities all year round. Walleye fishing tournament, smelt running in April, our own "Dream Cruise" parade on East Michigan right in front of the house in July, Art and Craft show in August, Chili cook out and Music on the Street in Tawas in summer, Tall ships in Bay City etc...
