Why the Owner Chose Huron
We bought this cottage many years ago when our 10 children were young so we could all enjoy Lake Erie and the simple pleasures of summer.

We stayed at the Cottage with some friends on Memorial Day weekend. In all there were 4 adults and 6 kids. We couldn't have been more comfortable. Everything we needed was available and sleeping accommodations were excellent. We felt like we were staying with family. The tree & swing was a big hit for the kids. It was really nice to have the lake right there. It was a perfect getaway. Just thinking about it makes me want to go back!

Eight of us (4 couples) stayed in this cottage and had an absolutely wonderful time. George and Carol were so friendly and accomodating. They really made us feel like family. The cottage was everything they said it was. It's very rustic with lots of personality! The front porch was a great gathering place....we had hours of fun playing games there. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The cottage was spotless. Although the cottage is old, there were plenty of electrical outlets in all of the rooms. There is lots of room in the yard for corn hole or bocce and there's a great back deck. I would highly recommend this cottage both for the facility itself and for the ease of working with the owners. They were truly a pleasure and added to our enjoyment of the week!

Though I stayed her with 5 other women who I graduated from high school with, I could definitely see it filled with family and extended family just having a great time together. The pictures definitely do the place justice. The view of the lake is beautiful. It is convenient to restaurants and places to buy necessities. Carol and her husband live right next door in a beautiful home and were very hospital. Returning is definitely something we will be doing.
