The cottage followed the atmosphere of Port Austin. Everything was exactly as described and we enjoyed the cottage life. My adult children enjoyed walking to miniature golf and my father enjoyed the simple layout. I would recommend the stay for everyone and plan on reserving again next year.

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.
