Cute small home close to town

Cute smallish place on outskirts of residential neighborhood. Clean and comfy livingroom/kitchen area for our group of 3 adults for 4 days. Nice backyard/deck. Lindsay very responsive to questions. House about 15 min walk to downtown. Bathroom small; could use updated shower, hooks or shelves for people's wet towels, clothes, etc.

About the host

Hosted by Lindsay Bitzer

Host profile image
Jason and Lindsay are happy to share their vacation home and love of Port Austin with others. We live in "the Thumb" of Michigan, but you won't see/hear from us unless you need to.

Why they chose this property

Port Austin has so much to offer in the Thumb of Michigan and yet it allows you to feel away from it all. The perfect spot for a small family!

What makes this property unique

We're kitty corner from the Butterfly House, and a block away from Bird Creek Farms (the best place to eat and drink in PA!).
