1 Bedroom House in Tawas City, East Tawas

NO ADDTIONAL FEES! No cleaning fees or pet fees.
Adorable space, old fashioned cottage right on Lake Huron. Large unclosed porch with bar. Fireplace and wood burning stove for heat. This cottage has the best views of the property and by far the best place to watch the sunrise.
This is a very old log cabin with original everything. It is around 100 years old and has tons of charm. The bedroom is an addition behind the chimney so you get to wake up to old beautiful brick work to your right and the gorgeous sunrise to your right through original single glass windows.
The enclosed porch is the best place for drinking your morning coffee and watching Lake Huron in all it's beauty. There are two dining tables for all your meals and a cute little dry bar to enjoy your evening brews.
The kitchen has a stove, refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot and toaater for all your cooking needs.
The other addition off the back of the cabin has an updated bathroom with a small but brand new shower.
We supply electric heaters for those cold nights but there is also a wood burning stove and electric fan to keep you warm if you prefer the old ways. We also supply box fans for those warm days to help pull that cool lake air in.
There is a private deck with a charcoal grill, fire pit and patio furniture.
This property has only the owners home and two other cottages so your time here will be quiet and peaceful. You largely get Lake Huron to yourself.
Host lives on site and is available whenever home to assist guests with their needs.
The property has two other cottages and owners home. There are a lotof trees and not many neighbors. It's quiet and peaceful. We have many many bird species and lots of black squirrels and chipmunks to watch.
Lake Huron is right outside the cabin for beautiful views. There is a deck and table with grill and fire pit for Lakehouse guests. There is also hammock and picnic table at the water for all guests to enjoy.
Bring your bike and take a ride down Baldwin Resort Rd to Tawas Beach where you can take the bike lane all the way to the Tawas Point State Park or into town.
This property sits on wooded sand dunes next to Lake Huron. It is rural and quiet. However, because it is next to the lake and in the woods we share our property with nature. We take every precaution to keep nature outside but this is a 1950's log cabin and sometimes nature comes in anyway.
Wifi is functional but slow. Not recommended for streaming.
We have a two night minimum requirement.

Summary: Beautiful views and close to town! Sun porch is very nice but can get real warm. A little tough without the air conditioning but there are fans to help with that and the breeze from the lake. The bed is nice and comfy.
