About this property

Michigan Fall Color Tour, Tawas Bay Retreat


Fall is one of the most beautiful times to experience Northern Michigan, and this peaceful, freshly updated retreat is your ideal home base for a color tour.

The home is just 15 minutes from Lumberman's Monument, where towering trees and scenic overlooks showcase the season's most brilliant colors, and minutes more from the AuSable River, Huron National Forest, and the Corsair/Silver Valley trail system.

Spend your days exploring miles of scenic trails, and take a leisurely afternoon walk along the East Tawas State Pier, or time wandering the shops and restaurants of walkable downtown East Tawas.

As evening settles in, head back to your private backyard, fire up the grill, and gather around the fire pit for s'mores, conversation, and stargazing under a crisp autumn sky.

Inside, the home has been freshly updated with high-end luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the beautiful kitchen, dining, and living areas, giving the space a bright, modern feel.

The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to cook and gather after a day on the trail.

With three bedrooms, including a kid-friendly twin room, the home offers comfortable rest for couples, families, or a girls' getaway alike.

Tucked inside an established quiet neighborhood, the space is perfect for slow mornings with coffee, creative work, family game nights, or relaxing after a day exploring the lake and surrounding nature.
Being centrally located to everything that makes fall in Northern Michigan special, this is where your color tour should end each day.
