About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Coastal Breeze · Beachy, Updated Home · Steps to Sandy Lake Huron & Downtown

Experience the charm of Michigan in our newly renovated vacation home, offering private beach access. Right at your doorstep is sandy Lake Huron, perfect for relaxation. Just minutes away, indulge in tubing adventures down the AuSable River, hiking in the Huron National Forest, or exploring Oscoda's attractions. Craft your own Pure Michigan journey, then return to your cozy home away from home. For an informed booking, click 'Show more ' below and refer to our 'What to Expect' section.

++OVERVIEW++

Located near the end of a dead-end street in-town, you're less than a few hundred feet from sandy Lake Huron. Enjoy the beach at our resort across the street or walk along the shore to the Oscoda boardwalk and public park with plenty of activities for the kids: a splash pad, playground, skate park, and maintained beach.

For time spent indoors, there's comfortable space for your entire family + friends with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Spread out when you want some privacy or gather in the spacious, open-concept living area. Stay connected with high speed cable internet and whole home WiFi. All three HDTVs are loaded with premium movie content and channels.

Enjoy your morning coffee gazing at Lake Huron from the front porch or relax on the shaded, back patio with a glass of wine in the evening. Walk across the street and relax on sandy Lake Huron with private access through our waterfront property.

BEDROOMS

There are 3 private bedrooms, each with comfortable memory foam mattresses. The front bedroom has a queen/twin bunk sleeping arrangement and cubbies for nighttime phone/tablet charging. The downstairs master has a raised queen bed, HDTV and armchair. There’s a king bed and HDTV in the upstairs bedroom.

BATHROOMS

The main bathroom is off of the living room and features a tub-shower. The second bathroom is off of the downstairs master bedroom and has a large 6’x3’ walk-in shower.

LIVING SPACES

The living room, kitchen and dining room are all open to each other and offer plenty of space for your entire group. Like the other televisions, the living room HDTV is Roku enabled/equipped. Across from the upstairs bedroom is a semi-private, secondary hangout space with a daybed (daybed linens not provided).

ACCOMMODATION

The home is equipped and intended to sleep 6 people comfortably. While there is technically space for 8-9, we know that not every travel party consists of couples—there’s no need to bring an air mattress—the day bed (day bed linens not provided) and twin bunk give you space to spread out. Our max guests, including children, is still limited to 6.

ANIMAL-FREE HOME

Allergic to animals? This home is always animal-free in order to provide guests with animal allergies a comfortable place to vacation.

OUTDOOR SPACE

Off the back of the home is a semi-private patio with dining for 6. Located close to the water, there’s almost always a nice breeze on the property and the large pine trees offer shade most of the day making outdoor relaxation comfortable. The outdoor space of this home is yours to enjoy and not shared with our resort.

Additionally, you have full access to our beach across the street at Cottage Cove.

RULES

We want you to have an awesome experience at the house and hope you enjoy your whole vacation. Our biggest philosophy is leave it as you found. I.e., clean up after yourself and treat the property as if it were your own. We think this is a place you’ll want to stay again after you experience it the first time.

++WHAT TO EXPECT++

Each of our vacation rental properties possesses distinctive traits, and we consider it essential for you to be aware of these prior to your visit. Our goal is to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for every guest, and understanding these differences from your home can contribute to that. To assist in making your booking decision more informed, we present some key points for your consideration.

++SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS++

SHARED SPACES: This cottage shares beach access with our next-door property, Cottage Cove. Consequently, the beach is shared with other guests and the possibility of dogs.

CLEANLINESS: We prioritize offering a clean environment for your vacation. Every linen, appliance, surface, and fixture is thoroughly cleaned between stays. However, there are some points to note.

• Our spacious, circular driveway at our next-door property, Cottage Cove, is a great playground for kids and provides a smooth walking surface. However, it can lead to oil being tracked into the cottage from the asphalt, especially when guests walk barefoot from the beach. Despite our diligent cleaning efforts, the asphalt can sometimes leave oil marks on the cottage floors and bathtubs.

• With the beach comes sand, which we endeavor to remove completely. However, if we miss a few grains, rest assured they've been mopped, sprayed, or wiped clean.

• Please note, these points are not meant to excuse substandard cleaning. If you ever feel our cleaning is insufficient, let us know immediately, and we'll rectify the situation.

COASTAL LIVING CHALLENGES: Our vacation rental homes are located on Lake Huron's shore, close to the Huron National Forest. Given our location and the age of our properties, please be aware of the following.

• Ants and other insects may find their way into the cottage, despite regular pest control efforts. You can help by maintaining food cleanliness and immediate cleanup.

• Rarely, mice may get past our precautions, especially during cooler weather. It's unlikely but worth considering when deciding to book.

ACCESSIBILITY: Our cottages are not handicap-accessible. Most doorways are narrow, and some spaces may present obstacles for those with mobility issues. Please review all photos to assess suitability before booking.

PROVIDED ITEMS: To simplify your packing, we supply essentials for your trip, but with certain limitations to stay competitive.

• Sanitary Items: Expect roughly 1 roll of paper towel, 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom, and 2 trash bags.

• Linens/Bedding: We provide each guest with 1 towel and 1 washcloth, based on the cottage's occupancy limit. Each bed is fitted with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, pillows with cases, and a light quilt. In the bathrooms, you'll find 1 floor towel and 1 hand towel. The kitchen is equipped with 1 dishcloth and 1 dish towel. Please note that we do not offer towel exchange services, nor do we provide extra linens beyond what is mentioned here.

• Kitchenware: We provide dinnerware to accommodate the maximum number of guests, plus basic cookware. e.g. at least 1 saucepan, 1 frypan and simple cooking utensils.

++CHECK-IN & ARRIVAL: REQUIRED STEPS++

It's important to us that you have an enjoyable getaway! We own 15+ properties and want your arrival to be as simple as possible. In order to ensure everyone has the most up to date info, we provide all access details through our company, Hunger & Ransom.

After booking, you'll receive a message from us that contains credentials for accessing your reservation page with us. On this page, you'll find helpful info like packing tips, directions, WiFi, your door code and more. You'll also be required to e-Sign a rental agreement with us. You'll be presented with a copy of this agreement before booking so you can review ahead of time.

You are always welcome to message us here before booking, during your trip and after. Don't hesitate to get in touch with any questions!

Perfect getaway for Birthday trip.
Perfect location and getaway for my annual Birthday trip. Aaron communicated well and the accommodations were spot-on with the online description. We were comfortable and will definitely be back next year! We ate at Hilltop, Edelweiss, AuSable Inn Riverview, did two art shows (Harrisville and Tawas), and was able to visit Sturgeon Point Lighthouse and Harrisville State Park. Thank you.

Nice beach cottage
We enjoyed the property with our four children. The youngest slept in the loft which worked fine, but Sound travels easily in the house. The kitchen was adequate for simple food preparation. I would have appreciated a larger skillet for pancakes and French toast but appliances are very nice. There was enough hot water for about 3 showers at a time. Hosts were responsive and restocked missing dishwasher detergent promptly.

Nice Place - a couple of minor hiccups - GREAT communication with owner (Aaron)
The house was nice. There were four of us (2 couples). We had plenty of space and the beds were very comfy. We spent most of our time away from the rental so we didn't use the kitchen or go to the lake near the rental. My husband and I had the lower floor, the other couple had the upper room. It was early spring so a bit chilly; there was only one thinnish blanket on each bed. We called and asked Aaron for some additional blankets; it was late but he offered to bring them right away - we opted to increase the heat and asked him to bring them over the next day (which he did!). The next morning we noticed there were no filters for the coffee pot - after contacting Aaron we realized the reusable filter was missing. He said he would bring over paper filters and offered to bring us all coffee from a local shop (which we declined - still, very nice of him to offer). The only other thing missing were: hand towels in the two bathrooms, so we ended up using the extra towels from the unused 3rd bedroom. There was only ~ 1-11/2 roll of toilet paper for each bathroom, but we were provided with additional rolls. My only recommendation would be to have extra blankets on-hand for guests who prefer to keep the temps low at night and to consider a checklist of some sort just to make sure all the rooms have the necessary supplies. Aaron was, however, VERY responsive and brought anything we asked for right away. So, all in all it was a fine place to stay.

I had a nice time staying at the property. They communicated with me promptly when I messaged them. It was a little warm in the upstairs bedroom, but I did see central air will be available next year! The beach access was very close. The showers had excellent water pressure and appliances were very nice. The neighborhood was very quiet, which I loved!

Golf Holiday
The property had plenty of room for for four senior golfers. Each of us had his own bed. Plenty of kitchen space. Sufficient seating in the living/family room. Only one minor issue. We had to call to get a propane tank for the grill. It was resolved very quickly. I will recommend this property and will reserve it again for future golf trips.

Good short trip to oscoda - great for young kids
This property is as advertised. Cozy House that has a cabin feel. Major plus: property owner also owns several other properties on the street, so even though this doesn’t have direct beach access - there is a well maintained beach that you have access to across the street. Kids loved it. Walking distance to other beaches, parks, and food/ice cream options. Also walking distance to grocery stores.

Fall Family Getaway
Quaint, lovely home. Several areas in the home to spread out and enjoy. Living space, dining space, loft area. Outdoor area was the spot I looked forward to the most, but the porch had not been swept down and there were way too many cob webs with spiders to feel comfortable and enjoyable. It was a big disappointment. Also, there were not enough towels (1 bath towel per guest, 1kitchen towel) We had a three night stay and with no on site laundry it was not great. We knew going in though, but quickly realized we wished we had at least 2 per person and more in the kitchen. We did use the kitchen to cook meals as there is a fully stocked kitchen. Property manager responded promptly when I called about a concern. He did his best to accommodate as quickly as possible. So close to the beach and quiet street!

This was our first stay in this particular house and we would gladly return! Perfect location and perfect layout for a small family. Enough room for the kids to play and grown ups to hang out. We enjoyed walking to the beach (just down the street) and found everything that we needed close by. Management was super responsive when we needed help with small things (including adding another day to our stay!). Overall, perfect spot for a family getaway!

Great Oscoda Getaway
We had a great time here and the property is so nice and comfortable. Compared to the many other rentals we have stayed in over the years in Oscoda, this was by far the best. Short walk to beach, friendly owners, easy access, privacy, and plenty of places to sleep on comfortable foam mattresses. The master suite shower is awesome! Kids all had their personal space as well as a great family area to hang out and watch tv or play games. 3 smart TVs with your choice of streaming service install, just enter you account info and watch away. Very nice appliances including a dishwasher and disposal (both of which are luxury items when staying up north). Short walk (10 minutes to center) or drive to town. A+ from our family - best place we have spent the week of the 4th in yet!
