About this property

Sand Point North Shore Cottage, Lake Huron

Note: June 30- August 25th the rental is only available for weekly rentals - Friday - Friday.

Neat cottage with a real cottage feel. Clean and updated in all the right places to keep that cottage feel. 4 bedrooms, cozy kitchen with new appliances, side by side refrigerator, fully stocked kitchen dishes and appliances.
3 bedrooms 1 bath upstairs. 1-Queen bed with TV. Set of twin beds in other 2 bedrooms.

Nice Living room with large flat screen and amazing lake views. There is a nice sunporch overlooking the lake.

Downstairs offers a large room with king bed and a set of twin beds. Large flat screen TV, couch, chairs and game table. Also downstairs is a newly remodeled bathroom and an over sized extra refrigerator for all those extras.
Outside has generous parking, a gorgeous brick patio, propane grill, picnic tables, and more.

There is also a boat house and inside you will find a couple of Kayaks and vests.

Enjoy amazing sunrise and sunset views.

The beach has been eroded in the last few years, but lake is shallow and sandy. Hard to tell what mother natures has in store each year. This is a Fantastic Summer location, and also perfect for Hunters and fishermen.

Close Caseville and all the fun downtown activities. Lemon Tree Marketplace is great for shopping, plus coffee, smoothies and pastries oh and don't miss the upstairs here - fantastic, you will find several consignment areas, Dancing Lotus has Crystals, art, and painted furniture, while Crafts by Sherri has some wonderful home painted furnishings and decorations, there is also a mix of consignment clothing and painted furniture and houseware accessories scattered throughout the upstairs. The Market on Main is every Saturday in the summer months where you can pick up fresh produce or baked goods along with other crafts and general goods. Jades on the Bay is a great Women's clothing boutique, Cottage Outfitters has a wonderful selection of goods and furnishings while LaBlanc's is full of souvenirs, T-shirts and more, and Keepsakes has wonderful shopping, greeting cards, Cheeseburger decorations, toys, t-shirts and beyond, you will also want to check out the local thrift store - Helping hands while you are in town which is next to Key North Surf shop where you will find beach wear from suits to hoodies and everything in between. For that real hometown feeling, try Walt's for breakfast, there is also Lefty's or stop into the historical Dufty's Blue water for that local bar atmosphere with awesome food. If you like beer, stop in to The Thumb Brewery on Pine Street for a pint along with a nice selection of food such as flatbreads or burgers, and for a fun meal, try out Beachy's menu which is full of wonderful options. And that is just some of the things in Caseville, not to mention Bay Port, Pigeon, or Port Austin! Check with the Caseville Chamber of Commerce for festivals and other amenities or attractions in the area.

We do have a Strict No Pet Policy.

Note: 2021 winter sea wall replaced. And Boathouse slab redone.

Serenity and peace

This home is located right on Lake Huron. The view is magnificent and the sound of waves is like a blanket of peace on your soul. TJ has provided everything you need. The sheets were soft and smelled like spring. The beds were very comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. The home is large and easily accommodated 9 of us. The downstairs sweet is huge and set up with a seating area. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. The owner was a joy to work with! She responded quickly to all my questions and she was very gracious and accomodating. You can’t miss if you stay in this home during your vacation.

A wonderful weekend getaway

I recently had the pleasure of staying at TJ's beautiful property on Lake Huron with five of my friends, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, TJ was an amazing host who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The property itself is stunning—right on the lake with breathtaking views that we enjoyed every morning and evening. The cozy and comfortable atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. I loved the wonderful vintage vibe that the place exuded, blending seamlessly with all the modern conveniences we needed. It was the perfect setting for our getaway! TJ was incredibly attentive, providing us with everything we needed. The cleanliness of the property was impeccable, which made us feel right at ease. I would not hesitate to stay here again in an instant! Thank you, TJ, for your hospitality and for sharing your beautiful property with us. We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to return!

A traditional lake house get away. The knotty pine interior brought back many childhood memories. The view of Lake Huron was most relaxing. This place met or exceeded all our expectations and the cleanliness and thoughtful touches were much appreciated.

Extended family summer vacation!

This place was so much fun for our extended family! It was so clean, stocked for anything, and we were greeted right away by T.J. the owner! She was delightful & helpful! We were pleased at how shallow Lake Huron can be for swimming in comparison to other great lakes. Due to the rise in water levels there are steel walls for erosion protection. With little children we had some concern about the lack of rails along the edge of these tall walls, yet made it work. The treat was seeing the sunrise & set all in one beautiful place!

Family Vacation 2022

We had a great time! The "grandkids" (all adults now) could drive up after work, which they did (from Caro & Akron). One daughter/fiancée live in Essexville and said they weren't going to stay but ended up staying two nights! We even had extra beds! Lots of parking: had six cars at one point, and visitors for a few hours we didn't expect from Caseville, so we could entertain them too. Loved the view from the outside deck watching the sunset. Everything about the place suited us very well. We highly recommend it! The grandkids even stated that the cottage felt comfy and homey. Great place! Thank you for sharing it with us.

Just Perfect!!

This property was not only beautiful, but the location and views were simply amazing! Oh my the sunsets!!! And talk about having literally everything you need! Every detail was taken care of from eating utensils, pots and pans, dishes, kitchen stocked with spices. There are plenty of bath and beach towels, games, outdoor furniture, fire pit, grill. We only left the property for about 2 hours to go on a short hike. I wish we had more than a weekend because we could literally have stayed here for a month and enjoyed every second of it! We also found the living room furniture to be so unique, very cottage vibe to it, but solid wood, very well made and upholstery looked brand new but with a classic old school look to it! This is the place to stay for an incredible weekend, week or more in the thumb! We will definitely be back next year.

Phenomenal Sand Point Stay

The place is awesome! Location is great! Communication and assistance from the owners is top-notch. A lot of memories made with family and friends at this absolute gem on the North Shore of Sand Point. The cottage had everything you could possibly ask for... plenty of room, 2 full baths, sunroom and an extra fridge downstairs to keep all the food (and beers) cold! A nice grill, kayaks, a portable fire pit and 2 beaches (upper and lower) to pick from... along with a great garage (boathouse) set-up for rainy days... a great time was had by all even with a couple days of rain! Thanks a million!

Great for a large group

We had a group of 9 ladies staying at this property for a weekend away and it was just perfect. The only challenge for a large group is the size of the kitchen. Other than that, the location is beautiful, the space is cozy and well furnished, beds are comfortable and there are plenty of them, and everything is provided for. We were so pleased with the availability of basic essentials both in the kitchen and in the bathroom. If I had another group getaway, I would certainly be back!

Vintage Cottage With All the Updates!

The Lilac Cottage was as close to perfect as any rental we've ever stayed in! We have a large blended family that includes our adult children with their spouses and 3 grandchildren, and we just loved our time there last week! I look forward to renting this property again soon! PROS: The vintage charm of the inside will leave you fondly remembering family vacations of your own childhood while having all the updates and technology of today, not the least of which are AC, WiFi, and three flat screen TVs with a gazillion channels and access to Netflix! The kitchen is fully stocked and its appliances, including the dishwasher, are new. The owner has even provided a Keurig with k-cups in addition to a regular coffee pot for those relaxing mornings on the patio overlooking the lake, and there is an industrial sized refrigerator for beverages and overflow as well as a big, new washer/dryer set in the basement as soon as you walk in and a gas grill and picnic table on the patio beside the house on the lake side! The apartment sized room in the basement was fantastic for our oldest grandson and his cousin. The adults shared the king size bed and the boys each had their own twin plus a family room area with a big flat screen TV where they played video games when they tired of being with the adults and babies. We called them the "cave dwellers" because at 10 and 12, they were usually tired of us so spent a lot of time in their "cave", but because the room is downstairs, this grandma didn't need to see or stress about the messes they made and it was all cleaned up before they left! CONS: (These are NOT complaints! As I stated in the beginning, this was the best place we have rented over the years, but each family is unique so I provide the following as feedback for those multigenerational groups with little ones like us looking to rent.) The biggest disappointment was the lack of beach, but I have rented on Sand Point for many years now and know how the water levels fluctuate from year-to-year. We were still able to access the water using a ladder and enjoyed floating on rafts and taking the kayaks out. The backyard (roadside) is better for small children due to the steep stairs and drop offs from the patios to the water and cement boathouse pad in the front yard. We made the best of things though and used a small inflatable kiddie pool for our two youngest grandchildren and played some mean games of wiffle ball in the private drive off the main road!

Weekend getaway

The Lilac House was a lovely cabin in Caseville. We only had 4 people so the house was plenty big for us. Everything you needed was there and then some. The use of their kayaks was convenient, the towels, sheets, beds were all nice, clean and comfortable. The owner was very responsive with before we arrived and also with any questions while we were there. My only suggestion would be update the listing so does not show as beachfront. We were looking forward to letting our kids play right in front of the house, but the water levels are so high, there is no beach right now. Not the owners fault, obviously, but our expectation was there was a beach. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay!

Great location and property

The location of property is perfect. It is maintained really well. The kitchen is stocked with lots of items. It also provides kayaks, floats and many other item to make your time in water fun. They also have fire pit and provide wood! The internet connection may not be first thing on your mind when you go there but if you need one they have really good connection. TJ was very responsive to my messages before arrival as well as through out the stay. We had wonderful time. Thank you!!
