Michigan is known as the water-winter wonderland. Our Lake Huron Sunrise Suite Retreat invites you to bathe in the light and warmth of the sun while refreshing yourself in the cool fun of beautiful, blue Lake Huron or enjoy Michigan’s winter beauty. Location! Location! Location!
With its two distinct rooms, this laid-back suite retreat is the perfect setting for business trips, commuters, traveling workers or a much-needed romantic weekend away. And, with room for up to 4 guests, including pets (+ fee) close to nearest hospital only 15 minutes away.
With an unstoppable sunrise view of Lake Huron just outside your door no matter the season, Michigan's Lakeport shoreline invites you to watch majestic freighters, colorful sailboats and puttering motor boats all while enjoying much-needed down time.
For the early risers as dawn breaks, Lake Huron offers a spectacular light show, featuring rainbow colors and glittering waves. Later, enjoy a nice sandy beach during the day and then a TOASTY BONFIRE at night. You can cap off your day by watching the moon rise above one of mother nature’s greatest triumphs.
Not only do you have your own slice of heaven, if you’re looking for adventure, heading north or south, you’re minutes away from shopping, dining and exploring other great thumb coast treasures including shoreline parks, outdoor sports, bike and walking trails, fishing off the beach, boutiques, antiques, nature preserves, golf, boating marinas, live entertainment, rivers and kayaking. It is so fortunate you found us!
What to Expect When You Arrive Right off the beaten path of M-25, our laid-back Lake Huron SUITE retreat sits on a quiet suburban street. As you pull onto the property off Lakeport Drive, you see what BEAUTIFUL Lake Huron has to offer any time of year. Flowering shrubbery and evergreen trees provide PRIVACY with a standard child’s swing set and slide will provide extra fun for the kids. In the warmer months and just steps away from the entrance you’ll find a picnic table, barbeque grill and small fire pit for your enjoyment.
Walking into the house suite through your private entrance, you are greeted with a homey living room. Its two windows fill the space with natural light, a TV is available. To the right you’ll notice a well-appointed kitchenette with a coffee pot, toaster, microwave and a mini-fridge. A comfy sofa-bed couch and coffee table makes the place cozy and inviting. For intimacy, the suite offers a private primary bedroom and queen size bed, TV, AC, storage closet and a quaint bathroom with a stand-up shower. To really appreciate what this suite has to offer, you are encouraged to check out all our pics.
Even though the shoreline is only a casual walk down the driveway (about 200 steps to the beach), an extended driveway gives guests the flexibility to transport any gear, including kayaks, paddle boards or floats right to the water’s edge. On our beach, you’ll find a permanent bonfire pit and wooden swing. The romantic, lighted gazebo might just invite you to sit awhile with a warm cup of cocoa, or your morning coffee or tea.
What does Michigan’s Sunrise Coast Have to Offer? Lakeport is centrally located on Michigan's thumb coast and is within minutes of gas, golfing, wine tastings and live entertainment at the theater in Lexington. To the south, Port Huron is known as the Maritime Capital of the Great Lakes with unique sites such as the Huron Lightship and Museum. Downtown Port Huron along Black River has entertainment and sports events including the Bayview Mackinac Yacht RACE. This sailing tradition is one of the largest fresh-water sporting events in the WORLD and has grown into the greatest summer CELEBRATION. The Blue Water Bridge is a great gateway linking the USA to Canada (bring your passport). As the second largest country in the world (land mass), Canada is filled with historical wonders, outdoor exploration and a casino just off the bridge and all about 20 minutes away from our house suite.
On the thumb coast, Lakeport is its own hidden LUCKY CHARM with a bank, market, restaurant, barber, pizza/ice cream parlor and tavern you can travel to by foot with your family or pet. Just 10 minutes south on M-25, you’ll find gas stations along with the Birchwood Mall which offers a carousel music ride for all ages in the food court and AMC theater.

We found our accommodations to be very clean and comfortable. The location was great. It was close to a state park, shopping, restaurants, and attractions in Port Huron. We would consider staying there again.

February has been remarkable with warm temps and hardly any snow! It is such a special month to come be together at a clean, cozy quiet place just off Lake Huron. Thanks Scott and Jackie for picking our place, Diana
The suite we rented was clean and comfortable. Cozy bed. We enjoyed exploring the area and were lucky enough to stumble on a fine art fair in Lexington. We enjoyed our time there. Of course the lake was beautiful.

I agree, Lake Huron is beautiful! Clean, comfortable and COZY says it all for our house suite. It is so pleasing to read you enjoyed your stay and lucky enough to explore a fine art fair just about 10 minutes away in Lexington a little further North of Lakeport. Thanks, Amy!
The lodgings were comfortable, clean, and accurately described - everything was as promised, and the owner was super responsive and helpful in communication. A great experience.

We stayed for two nights during a road trip thru mid Michigan. The location on a private beach was excellent, and the host and company definitely took care of us. Restaurants and other beaches close by. Very enjoyable and would stay at the property again. 5 star.

Location! Location! Location! A private place with 160' of beach on beautiful BLUE LAKE HURON is what we provide and I am so thankful Ron you mentioned it in your nice review. It is just one of the vacation/working perks provided along with restaurants, other beaches, tavern and Lakeport Market are all within walking distance or a minute away. I am so glad you both had an enjoyable stay in our Lake House Suite and would come back! Taking care of guests is a top priority I am committed too...Thanks Again! Hope to see you when you circle back through -Diana
Thanks Donna, I am so glad you two had a pleasant stay! It makes me smile knowing even golden-agers really enjoy Lake Huron and the beach! Please come back and stay again!
Thanks for your review, Mathieu! I know it was only one night but, I am so glad you thought our place was nice and you and your family with dogs had some fun at Lake Huron! - Diana

Kenneth, even though our house suite property was just a great stopover I am glad we were here for you. Lake Huron and the stunning sunrises will all be waiting for your return! Thanks for your review, Diana
Cozy, clean and stocked with board games. Lake Huron, the beach and fire pit were amazing. Enjoyed the colors of fall. Loved that our fur babies could join us!

Thank you so much, Sue! I am always glad to hear about certain details of the suite like stocked board games and how clean it was. The fire pit is always inviting during any season and the FALL colors were very enjoyable this year. Come back and stay during some warmer days and enjoy with your fur babies, too! Thanks again, Diana
The apartment was very clean and well-appointed. Beautiful view of the lake from the yard; It is just minutes from Lake Huron State Park. There are local restaurants and small stores only minutes away, and it is only a short drive to Port Huron, with all larger town amenities.

Thank You, Ray! You stayed at our place the longest and I am so happy you enjoyed the beautiful view of Lake Huron, stores and restaurants minutes away and all the amenities close to our wonderful location in lovely Lakeport. Take Care and hope to see you again!
It's hard to find a place to stay for just one night (especially one that accommodates pets!), but this was perfect for a short trip to pick up one of our kids that was at a local camp. Beds were comfortable and it was nice having a private sandy beach, which is hard to find on Lake Huron. We had a lovely trip!

My husband, adult son, and I had a lovely stay. The suite is cozy and comfortable. The beach was exceptionally nice. We enjoyed the gazebo as it offered shade as did the trees near the beach. Best sandy beach on Lake Huron we have found!

Kris, thank you so much for sharing your review and highlighting our sandy beach. I totally agree it is the BEST beach on Lake Huron with such a nice shade tree available for guests to enjoy! Thanks Again, for your lovely review - Diana
Nice partial section of main house. I rented both the house and suite, which did feel more private. A door wall allowed the quiet part of the family to be separate from the side with children.

Therese, thank you for all the really GREAT compliments! Our almost an acre of "green space" does provide lots of open space full of natural environment while reducing noise with soothing shade. Along with the wavy water feature Lake Huron offers and beautiful BEACH makes this place perfect for everyone! Thank you so much for bringing those aspects of my VRBO property into the light of your review. I am delighted to read that you felt it was like a "home away from home". Exactly, what we are trying to share with the rest of the world. Thanks again, Diana

Thanks, David for the good advice. I totally agree guests should read the House Suite description, understand the house and pet fee rules, look at the pictures and ask questions if any after the welcome letter. It is always better to be well advised then be surprised. - Diana
