Basic house on an amazing private lake beach with firepits

The private lake Huron beach access is amazing, AND they provide firepits and free firewood provided. Enjoying the crashing waves, expansive starry night sky, and a crackling fire all together was absolutely spectacular. The house itself is basic and practical. House came with one towel for each of us, Host quickly brought us a second set so we'd have a set for swimming and showering when we asked. Coffee maker was a Nespresso, but the host brought a drip coffee maker when we asked as well. Areas of improvement: Kitchen knives are very dull. Kitchen was stocked with 2 cutting boards and a baking sheet. There are no baking pans. There's only salt and pepper and some very solidified expired spices. Batteries in the TV remote are out TV screen is small, maybe 15in, but we came for the water! remember to bring a speaker and any games you may want, house doesn't have many. Best full grocery store (Mejer) is 30 min away. 5min away you can find an extensive gas station grocery store with basic vegetables. Beds - are fairly uncomfortable. The Primary bedroom is on the ground floor (double bed) has a locked door that connects to the second adjoining separate unit. The other 3 beds are singles in a shared space upstairs they creek and squeal every time you move on then so bring ear plugs. The screens had some holes in them so some bugs got in. The owners live on the property. between your house and the road a ways away. But only saw then when they brought over the

This was the perfect home base for our kayaking adventures. We had a wonderful stay as everything was exactly as described. Plenty of room for my small kayak trailer, the available charcoal grill was an added bonus

Family Summer Vacation

Our stay on the private beach along Lake Huron in the quiet Thumb Region was really wonderful. My children enjoyed going out to the beach, feeling safe, and especially liked the twin beds on the upper level - their own loft and hideaway. The property offered all it boasted. It would be better to have the duplex home listed as 2 separate vacation homes. It was difficult to tell which listing was the property we were staying in. We didn't mind having neighbors but we didn't understand they were joined. Love this region of Michigan. We hope to be back.

family reunion

We love this property. It allows my elderly parents a short and manageable walk to the beach, and benches that they can sit on to enjoy the water that they grew up on. Having both apartments allows the family to spread out (there were 10 of us) and access to both kitchens, refrigerators and the washer and dryer, helped with our reunion preparations. My older bones didn't appreciate the fold out futons, but the recliners in #1 were very comfortable and easy to use to catch a nap. The Dollar General located easily in town provided easy pick up of the charcoal and laundry detergent we needed. We appreciated the night lights through the house as it got very dark in the evenings.

Beautiful Property

This is a beautiful place with a private beach on Lake Huron. Quiet, restful, beautiful wildflowers next to a stream that empties into the lake. A lovely place for birdwatching or sitting on the beach watching occasional freighters in the distance. The cottage was perfect, clean, and tidy. The only problem I ran into was that I never received the code for entering the property. That was very difficult after a long drive. I tried calling the host 3 times with no luck, so I had to contact VRBO.They also tried the number with no luck. They suggested I use hotel.com to reserve a room in a hotel. I ended up reserving a non-refundable hotel room that was about 45 minutes away. (It was the closest place available). After filling up with gas to go to the hotel, the host from the cottage finally called and gave me the codes I needed for the property. At this point, I was tired and hungry and grateful to not have to drive any further. I called the hotel to cancel and they told me my money would not be refunded. So I ended up losing over $200. I am hoping VRBO can help me with this as I was put into this predicament by the lateness of my host to respond with important information. Communication was very disappointing. I never received information prior to the long drive. The host insisted that she texted it to me, but I had never received a text from her. I am used to having clear directions from VRBO hosts the weekend prior to leaving for the trip.

August 2023 Family

The pictures for Property 2 also include pictures for property 1. When you view Property 1, those pictures are only of Property 1. We loved the access to the washer and dryer located in Property 2. Both kitchens were handily stocked and easy to move around in. Property 2 had one queen bed and 3 twin beds to sleep sleep 6. We had one person attempt to sleep on the pull out futon, but it was so uncomfortable, he ended up just sitting on the couch to sleep. Each bed was made up, but we had no bedding for the futon. Property 1 has a step up into the kitchen that we marked brightly to remind everyone it was there, it helped to put the dark rug near it to delineate it from the other floor, making it easier to see and remember to step. Most of the windows in both sides of the properties could not be opened as screens were ripped or torn, but the little window AC units were very functional, especially when we used the fan that we had brought with us. We could sit in Property 1 and watch the water out of the big picture window, very little view of the lake from Property 2. Having easy access to the lake was great for our elderly parents, the boardwalk made walking safer, although we had a short distance of lawn to traverse to get there. 2 fire pits on the beach with convenient logs for fuel. Great rocky beach for our rock hounds, water socks are a must for swimming. Everyone enjoyed the weekend with the privacy and the quiet. Evening skies were fantastic.

The VRBO is comfortable, unfussy and well-provisioned. A great place to just hang out and relax. The beach is unpopulated and a good spot to watch the always-changing water. We discovered some interesting places to visit nearby.

Great spot to enjoy Lake Huron and the Thumb area

We had a wonderful stay. The beach area was quiet and well tended. Plenty of places to play and explore. The owners were quick and responsive when something that was stated to be in the cabin was not and brought it over. We had comfortable beds and warm showers. We were able to star gaze a little without having to head to the state park. We saw a beautiful blue heron that lives in the trees as you cross the bridge to the beach. I would recommend an update on the cooking pots and pans, there was only one small pot for cooking (the lobster pot was too big for simple oatmeal making) and one of the frying pans was very warped and made for an uneven cooking surface. I know many families choose not to cook while on vacation, but we used the kitchen often and that was one place that could use a little refresh.

Peaceful and beautiful

Two of my cousins and I stayed at the Tan's property for a family reunion nearby. We plan to stay in the other duplex next year. The owners are available if you run into issues (we did not). The duplex is lakefront and secluded. Both sides have a lake facing patio with seating. It is clean, with all necessary amenities included. We did not turn on the TV so cannot address reception there, but we did use WiFi and that was ok.

Our third summer staying here and it did not disappoint. The beach and view of the stars are our favorite. The kids were disappointed that the large hammock was gone, but still had so much fun. Can't wait to stay again next summer!
