We had an amazing 3 night stay! The apartment was perfect for 2 people, very clean and had everything we needed. The deck and views were amazing, especially the sunrise. It's very close to Tawas for food and shopping but also perfect for staying in and relaxing. If you love sun and water it's perfect! Would definitely stay again.

The location was fabulous in relation to downtown Tawas. The only bummer was to get into the water you had to walk over rocks, so no sandy beach. But we just went to the public beach to swim. The view is fantastic and we would absolutely stay here again! Perfect for my husband and myself!

This property is absolutely beautiful! Very clean and perfect for a short get away. The location is very private but close enough to both East Tawas and Oscoda and everything the area has to offer! I highly recommend booking if you want to visit Lake Huron.

Everything about our stay reflected exactly what we were looking for. The apt. was so clean and inviting, the grounds lovely in Spring, and the quiet beauty of Lake Huron from the private deck was amazing! The hosts were kindly available if needed. Delicious restaurants and mountain biking in the Huron National Forest were fabulous entertainment. We would love to return!

Very quaint and cute studio. If you’re looking for a beautiful lake to lounge about during the day this is it. At night there was a flood light issue the property owner took care of. Although I couldn’t enjoy a fire I appreciated the effort. The house next door also has flood lights that shine right on you down by the lake but if darkness and star gazing isn’t what you’re looking for you’ll be just fine. Not a huge deal. Just something worth mentioning. The outdoor area was the best and my favorite part!If you can’t find the place, replace US 23 for Huron rd. Just a little help if you can’t find the place.

Lovely clean accommodations, wonderful property overlooking the lake. We were able to enjoy the lake view while feeling like we were in a tree house! We spent time on the deck reading and we stayed up late to view the Milky Way! Good location between Tawas and Oscoda. We'll be back!

Very suitable for a couple, otherwise too tight for more. As is, need to live out of your suitcase or pile clothes on a table/hang.. Deck seating at all levels was phenomenal. Sunrises and moonrises to die for! Excellent location between two lovely small towns. Our host was sweet, charming, a lovely woman
