Nice house with great character. Location was excellent. Fenced yard was great for our dog. We also loved the front porch. Just a note that the stairs to the third bedroom are very steep since it’s an older house.

Felt like home

We loved our stay here this summer. The house was very clean and cozy. My kids said it felt like home. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the screened in porch and backyard. Best part was the location, we could easily walk to the beach and downtown East Tawas!

Quiet Weekend in East Tawas

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage. Located in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood and just two blocks from the main downtown area, this cottage had everything we needed for our stay. Hosts were quick to respond to messages prior to our arrival. No issues. Definitely would stay here again!

Perfect house. Perfect location.

We enjoyed our stay and wished we could’ve stayed a week longer. Walk to everything. The house had plenty of amenities. Coffee on the porch was the best way to start the morning. The window ac had a little trouble keeping the whole house cool to our liking, but overall, we had an excellent stay. The host was very responsive and quick. Would definitely stay here again.

The perfect Tawas rental!

This house has so much space- the pictures don't do it justice! Two of the rooms are giant and one is regular sized. The owner responded quickly to any questions I had. Very open space with everything that we needed. Fun yard games. Close to everything. I will rent this house again.

As expected

Cute, older little house. Perfect for a quick weekend trip. Only a block from town which offers shopping, and restaurants. Close to pier and beach. Great option if you don’t mind not staying on the lake. Enjoyed the campfire and laundry provided. Downsides: small fridge, no propane for grill, narrow driveway due to trees, and upstairs is extremely hot (unit could not keep bedroom cold).

Our first trip in nearly 2 years and it was great. The home is in a quiet neighborhood and very close to the shops, restaurants, and the lake. Furniture and beds were comfortable and the yard was fenced in for our two dogs. We would gladly stay again in the future.
