About the host

Hosted by Melissa K Sanford Noel

Host profile image
My name is Melissa and I live in Taylor, Michigan. I work for the public school system and I am a school psychologist. I went to school at Wayne State University and love what I do for a living. I love to ride bikes and swim. I love Florida and I LOVE my two dogs; Edison and Sterling! They are both Aussidoodles and they are adorable! I am a mother of two adults and four grand children. My youngest grandchild is a teenager (gulp)!

Why they chose this property

I love Lake Huron and all the small cities situated along it. I have visited here and just new I would one day want a cottage up here where I could enjoy that beautiful lake! The neighborhood as wonderful restaurants such as the Pizza company near by, great shopping such as an antique store on the corner of First St. and us 23 and a local farmer's market. There are free concerts every Tuesday night in the summer in East Tawas and there are nearby lighthouses to tour. In the fall there is the color tour to look at all the beautiful trees and their stunning colors. In the winter there is hunting and fishing, skiing and snow mobile trails. The cottage comes with bikes to ride the coastline or go to town for dinner. The cottage also comes with inflatable Kayaks to test the waters of Lake Huron or other nearby lakes such as Lake Cedar in Greenbush. There is also the AuSable River nearby and you can rent a proper Kayak and go on a river tour! So much to do and you do not have to venture very far to experience it!

What makes this property unique

I have provided so many amenities including a Keurig coffee pot with many flavors, sugar, sweet and low, equal and International creamer flavors. I have provided tea and an electric kettle. Many new small appliances such as an air fryer, an ice machine, a blender, a toaster, a can opener, an emersion blender, and margarita glasses if that is your vibe. I have provided an air microwave popcorn popper with sixteen different flavors of seasoning to try along with the butter to add after popping (never put the oil in the oil in the popper it is a fire hazard to do so). I have provided s'more packages with and without nuts to roast on the fire pit. I even provided the skewers to roast the marshmallows. I have provided canvases and painting supplies in case the area inspires you to paint a picture (please clean up after yourself). There is a tarp provided to help with the mess. There was a new microwave purchased to accommodate the microwave popcorn bar, There is a new shed that will hold the 3 bikes and Kayaks provided and there are even umbrellas provided hanging up in the utility room in case it rains. There is a washing machine and dryer provided in the house for you to use, there are four brand new luxurious beach towels, six new towel and linen sets for the bathroom and six new sand towels provided for the beach! I have tried to think of everything that will make your stay the best possible AND I welcome any feedback to help me improve!
