Great place to stay, nice and close to downtown East Tawas. We especially like the ranch style layout. Weather was cool so the lack of central air was not an issue. Look forward to visiting again.

This house was definitely one to stay at. It was very roomy and had everything you could ever need from bathroom items to kitchen items. It was perfect. My family could not say enough about it. The owner was very pleasant and very quick to respond. We will definitely be staying here again if need be!

This property was in a great location. Close to shopping and close to the local beaches. The extra amenities added to the house (snacks, shampoos/conditioners, items you may have forgotten) was just perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

Thank you for the review. You and your husband were awesome to work with! We welcome you back anytime!
We had an amazing weekend getaway at a house that allowed us to spend quality time together, playing games, visiting, relaxing, and enjoying each other's company. The location was ideal, as we could easily walk downtown to join in the festivities. The owners of the house were fantastic to work with, and we're already looking forward to booking our stay again next year.
