About this property

Barefoot Bungalow- Sandy beach & gorgeous views of Lake Huron!

Summer 2026 booking Friday-Friday rentals. Spring and fall weekends available. Available summer dates: July 10-17, New for 2026 - whole house air conditioning!
Enjoy the beauty of Lake Huron with 95 feet of wide, sandy beach and lakefront. We have Sandy bottom water with shallow entry and a sandbar - perfect for families! This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house with a loft is down a secluded, dead end private street - no loud noise from US23! Master bathroom fully remodeled in 2024. We are close to area shopping, golf and restaurants. Fantastic deck for enjoying the views and everything you need to enjoy the beach available for your use - chairs, towels, sand toys. An outdoor shower to wash away the day's sand and a fenced in back yard for added privacy. Beautiful modern kitchen, fully equipped, and gas BBQ allow you to cook your own meals if you choose. The perfect end to a day spent splashing in the waves is making s'mores over the beach fire pit, or relaxing in the sauna. Amazing lake views from the kitchen, dining, sitting room, 1st bedroom, 4th bedroom and loft.

Located directly between downtown Tawas and Oscoda means access to all kinds of summer fun with festivals, movies/music in the park, cute shops, great restaurants, lighthouses, putt putt and renowned golf courses. Located near the AuSable River with opportunities for kayaking, canoeing and tubing. There are also amazing views of the fall colors with state land right across the street. Long driveway with plenty of parking and a basketball hoop for fun. TVs are equipped with streaming capabilities so you can login to your own accounts on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. Bike trails, hiking trails, sun and sand make Barefoot Bungalow the perfect destination to enjoy Pure Michigan. Come experience the sunrise side at its finest!

*Signed rental agreement and copy of photo ID required for all rentals.

Take a look at our sister property in Charlevoix, Michigan. Walking distance to Lake Michigan sand dunes and beaches. 1.8 miles outside of downtown. Walking distance to sledding, cross country skiing and ice skating! Year round fun! VRBO Property ID 2042079

It’s our second here and we can’t wait to come back next year. Our group of 7 friends love walking on the beach, sitting on the back deck watching the water & shopping in town. The home is beautiful & accommodates us all well. The peaceful setting can’t be beat.

Perfect stay. Beautiful beach property

We had 8 guys stay for a golf weekend, each with their own bed, and this place was absolutely amazing. Sweet fire pit and chairs setup out by the beach. Kitchen was well stocked. Coffee bar setup was a nice touch.

Barefoot Bungalow was the best Vrbo stay I have ever had! The property is absolutely beautiful, clean, and well maintained. It seemed like the host had truly thought about everything. There were tons of toys and games for kids and entertainment for adults as well. Jayme was very responsive and quickly responded to any questions we had prior to and during our stay. My family is already planning a return visit to this property. I cannot recommend this property enough! We had the best time and experience!

Wonderful week at Barefoot Bungalow

The house is very nice. The location on a sandy beach on Lake Huron is perfect. Our grandchildren loved playing in the water on the sandbars. The home is the perfect size for our group of 11 family members.
