Description
Fall in love with lakeside living at this 3-beds, plus sofa bed and 2 rollaways, 2.5-bath vacation rental house in Fort Gratiot. With space for 8 guests, this house has everything you need to feel comfortable during your getaway.

You'll love exploring the charming, historic township of Fort Gratiot, where you can see Michigan's oldest lighthouse, tour wineries, visit state parks, and more!
The Property
Master Bedroom: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: Full Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa | Additional Sleeping: 2 Rollaway Beds, Pack-n-Play
Walking into this updated waterfront home, you are greeted by views of the lake through large open windows filling the home with natural light. New hardwood floors are complemented by cute decorative rugs and a blue sectional couch that offers a tasteful pop of color.
Subtle nautical decor throughout gives the home a warm, welcoming vibe. You'll love relaxing in the comfy living room with a movie playing on the flat-screen cable TV or curled up on the stately black leather chairs with an enticing historical fiction novel.
Fix supper in the fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. You can have a nice meal with the adults in the dining room while the kids laugh and banter at the kitchen table nearby.
Take dessert out to the patio where there is ample outdoor seating to relax late into the night while enjoying views of the lake. Sip a glass of wine on the deck after the kids are tucked in for bed and enjoy those lingering peaceful moments of your vacation day. Access the patio from the RecRoom via the lakeside door.
Fall asleep in one of the 3 cozy bedrooms, and sleep an additional 4 guests on the rollaway beds or queen-sized sleeper sofa in the living room.

Location Details
Grab a latte or cappuccino at The Exquisite Corpse Coffee House in nearby Port Huron and sip your delightfully foamy caffeinated beverage while wandering the picturesque streets of Fort Gratiot. The historic area is rich with culture and tales, be sure to see Michigan's first (and therefore oldest) lighthouse, framed by old architecture and quaint homes.
There are various events and festivals happening in the township and nearby cities throughout the year, so be sure to see what's going on in the area! With events like Blue Water Cruise Night, volleyball festivals, scarecrows, and more, the vibrant Blue Water Area is filled with fun for all.
Your resident golf fanatic will love taking a swing at Willow Ridge Golf Club or Port Huron Golf Club. Practice that hole-in-one and go out for craft beer afterward at War Water Brewery or Conner Street Pub.
With sightseeing, restaurants, watersports, and more, this vibrant location has something for everyone. You'll love being able to take the provided kayaks out on the lake, don't forget the life jackets!
Visit Detroit, just an hour away from the property, or take the Twin Bridges over to Canada for a day on the Canadian side.

Perfect getaway!
This is a great beach house. Clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything you need. The mornings on the balcony watching the sunrise were fantastic! We would rent this house again.

Wonderful beachfront cottage near Port Huron
We had a terrific stay at this beachfront cottage. The location is perfect, tucked into a private residential area right on the waterfront, minutes away from local attractions in Port Huron, and perfectly positioned for exploring up the Lake Huron coast of the Michigan "thumb". We really appreciated the house's owners: They were friendly and quick responding to emails and texts, non-intrusive during our stay, and our whole family agreed that this house was by far the best stocked right off the bat with potential things guests might need, out of all the VRBO homes we've rented. The owners really seem to have put extra thought and care into anticipating those needs, and providing a place that is ready to go the moment you walk in. The house itself is well taken care of and has a warm and welcoming feel. For rainy days it is well-stocked with games and DVDs. The porch facing the lake is perfect for sitting outside to watch the sun rise, the freighters cruising by in the distance, or just enjoying views of surf and sand. Our family spent a week in the area with this home as our base of operation, and enjoyed every minute of it!
