About this property

Lakehouse on Lake Huron, Mermaid Coast Cottages

This beautiful log cabin is decorated in original up north vibes. It sits feet from Lake Huron for a peaceful and private view. Wake up to the sunrise from your bedroom window and enjoy the wonderful views of the lake from a rocking chair in the sunroom facing the water. When the sun sets enjoy the beautiful Milky Way in all its glory from the deck.

Relaxing and Perfect

This lakeside cabin is wonderful. So quiet, quaint and perfect in many ways. If you are looking for a relaxing time away, this is the place. Not to mention the beautiful views of Lake Huron while sitting in the enclosed porch watching the sunrise. 🌅

There was no beach to launch our paddle board and kayak. Place was dirty and in need of many fizes.

Property was run diwn, cold and not kept up. The property was listed having a beach, but none. We could not use our paddle board or kayak. The property was WAY over priced for the stay.

Instant therapy

What a cool house! Would love to stay here again for now I'm just happy to know it exists. Sounds and feels like the waves are crashing underneath the house. Very dog friendly, great hosts! Can't say enough, thank you again !

Cousin/Sister get away

My cousin and I came up for a get away. The cabin was perfect. Miss Huron was fierce and her waves were so soothing. We had a toasty fire all weekend and when we got low on wood, Q was right there restocking us. House was immaculate. We’d stay again for sure! Great location.

Week of relaxation

We wanted a week of relaxation and that is exactly what we got. Awesome view of Lake Huron. We had coffee on the deck every morning. The listing was very accurate. Hosts had great communication. We will definitely be back.

Breathtaking views & amazing property

The views and scenery were amazing. We absolutely enjoyed our time there. It was very relaxing and a great weekend getaway to recharge. The place has been well kept and the host always had quick responses. We would definitely recommend this lake house as well as stay there again.

Dramatic, comfortable and rustic

This is a cozy rustic cabin on a dramatic shore. We arrived to experience Lake Huron at its most dramatic, waves crashing on shore, and high into the air. The ladder to the water had been removed but the next morning as the water reuturned to calm, Quenton reinstalled the ladder and we were able to enjoy swimming each day and climbing on the rocks. Very fun. The cabin offers sitting in a comfortable living room, an enclosed porch, a deck, and a bench down by the water. Ample dining tables. Quenton and Jernnifer are very accomodating hosts. Thanks!

Beautiful View!

If you want to get away to relax with an amazing view, couldn't recommend this place enough. We spent a lot of time outside enjoying the sounds of the waves, but if we weren't doing that, then we resorted to the spacious patio overlooking the lake. Q and Jenn were very nice and communication was always swift leading up to our visit. We appreciate you welcoming us to your lakehouse and look forward to coming back!
