Owner's Profile

Year Purchased: 1989

Why the Owner Chose Lexington

I bought this home as a family home for year-round use when my children were newborn and 2 years old. I worked at Port Huron Hospital as an Occupational Therapist for 18 years.I raised my girls in this home and we rented the guest house in the summer for play-mates for the kids. When I re-married in 2003 and moved to Traverse City, I decided to rent both houses as weekly rentals in the summer to help pay the bills and allow us to still enjoy it during the off season. In recent years we have been staying for a week in the summer and weekends that are available during the rest of the year.

The Unique Benefits of this Lakefront Home and Guest House

Beach walking remains my favorite activity at my beach house. Our beach is very walkable in both directions, I search for sea glass and fossils and rocks! There is no light pollution in this area so the stars are especially bright, star gazing is also one of my favorite night-time activities. Sometimes I lie in the hammock, listen to the surf and watch the stars. There is nothing more calming to me than listening to the surf and looking at the water.
I love to go to the cottage during the full moon, the moon rise over the water is amazing!!!
My favorite time of day at the cottage is SUNRISE!!! I sip my coffee and watch from indoors in winter, in summer I sit on a chair on the stair landing and watch the sun light my world.
The gardens at the cottage are nice to enjoy, they bloom all season long!

    • MY FAMILY AND I STAYED AT CINDY'S BEACHHOUSE AND GUESTHOUSE FOR A WEEK AND THEN HAD MY WEDDING IN THE BACKYARD OVERLOOKING THE LAKE....IT WAS BEAUTIFUL! WE COULDNT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER VACATION HOME OR LOCATION FOR A SMALL BEACH WEDDING. THE HOUSE WAS EQUIPPED WITH EVERYTHING, IT WAS CLEAN, CHARMING AND WELL-MAINTAINED...I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND A STAY OR A WEDDING ON CINDY'S PROPERTY

    • Cindy, Our family had a wonderful week at your lake property in Lexington, MI. There was enough indoor and outdoor space for our four generation family to spread out and have a great time. Between the house and the Lexington area, there were plenty of activities for everyone from 8 months to 77 years old. It was a great time. Thanks!!

    • My family and I spent 1 week, we had the main house and guest house. Your property and homes are very well maintained and clean. We would love to see a front yard fire because the bugs are bad on the beach and we could not find a designated spot for horse shoes. Other than that things are beautiful. The houses are so well supplied we could have left home half of the things we brought. We would like to rent again at the same time next year but the calendar only goes to June.

    • My family and friends stayed here for one great week. My favorite parts were the incredible beach and nice firepit for roasting marshmallows. The house is very roomy and the kitchen very well stocked with utensils, etc. It did get very warm a few days and air conditioning would have been great- but the breeze from the lake cooled us down. I would absolutely recommend a stay here and look forward to many more summers!!

    • The Richardson Family enjoyed our week (July 23-30, 2005) at Cindy Hull's house north of Lexington, MI. It was a little hot the first few days, but for the most part we had great, cool, Lake Huron weather. The house was fine, and we were well-pleased with the beach (nice firepit; great for horseshoes) and the yard. The location, near Lexington and Port Sanilac, 75 minutes from Frankenmuth, several lots down the beach from a nice city park, was perfect for our family. THANKS! The Richardsons Greenfield, IN

    • Cindy, The MaDa’s (mothers/daughters) really enjoyed our stay at your cottage - great sunny beach and wonderful shady yard. The grandmother’s especially enjoyed the swing and my mom and I really enjoyed playing backgammon out in the yard every afternoon with the lake as our backdrop. The house was roomy, the beds comfortable. I even found two Petoskey stones on one of our beach walks. We couldn’t have ordered better weather. We’ll definitely be back next year. Thanks for everything.

    • Thanks Cindy for an incredible stay. We enjoyed the coziness of the house, the walks on the beach, the bonfires with s'mores, the sunrise, the barbecues, the relaxing times on the hammock and beach swing. I hope we have a chance to come back again. Everything was terrific!

    • If you like spectacular sunrises, long walks in the sand and the quiet of a campfire at night (right on the beach!) then this is the place to stay! We had the beach to ourselves for our entire stay. You can walk for miles in the soft sand and the view is spectacular. Truly deserving of the name "Sunrise Shores!" You could watch the sunrise from your bedroom window, but who can resist running right out the back door to sit on the beach with camera in hand? The house was charming and large enough to share with family or friends. We are already making our plans to go back!
