MICHIGAN VACATION RESORT NAME/LOCATION

A Woodsy Tawas Lake Home - Pets OK, Deck, Boat, Low Rates, Remodeled
East Tawas, Michigan 48730, Iosco County

Right across a quiet street to Tawas Lake. Only one mile from the nicest town for visitors on the Lake Huron side with a large city dock at the beach park, great swimming and a variety of shops. House is in a very quiet cottage neighborhood with paved streets. There is a nice feeling of privacy, houses are across the street towards the lake and next door across my lot but the view on the deck and out the back family room is into large oaks and the woods.

MICHIGAN VACATION PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Private and pet-friendly spacious home in a great location across a quiet neighborhood street from Tawas Lake. Easy lake access with rowboat provided. Closed in Jan. to March. Only one mile from the Lake Huron beachfront park and quaint shops of East Tawas, the nicest tourist destination on the Sunrise Coast. Fully updated with all new appliances in 2006 with a total inside and out renovation. House is on 5 lots with huge oak trees and nice views of Tawas Lake and the surrounding woods (look for the deer!). See www.ecologyusa.com with guest comments, more information, and many photos of the interior and lovely surroundings.

The house will sleep 8 and has a fireplace, AC, cable TV, DVD, stereo system, outside fire pit, and everything you need except food. The large family room is all windows with a nicely private view of the woods. The front room has Tawas Lake views and can sleep a ninth person. There are two bedrooms, one with two twin beds, the other with a newer full bed. Each of the two large family rooms has a good-quality sofa sleeper. The kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, coffee maker, cooking utensils, dishes, etc. There is a full bathroom with shower and tub, and a full-size new washer and dryer. Expect a clean, fully equipped house in a quiet cottage area with friendly neighbors. Paved streets with little traffic are ideal for bicycling, walking, and skating.

Tawas Lake is a large all-sports lake with a mostly undeveloped shoreline. Enjoy great fishing, waterfowl viewing/hunting, or just adventuring out in my rowboat. The boat can be left on the beach right across the street from the house in a rarely used right-of-way. Larger boats can be launched and beached at the nearby public boat ramp. Wild rice still grows on some of Tawas Lake, this is definitely a special place compared to many overused northern lakes because of its beauty, natural character, and abundance of fish and wildlife. You or the kids can swim or wade across the street or at a nearby city owned vacant waterfront lot, but the best swimming is only a mile away at the great East Tawas waterfront park. The park has an incredible long and wide sandy beach with a huge dock where you can take a long walk, fish, or just view all the docked yachts.

The main street of East Tawas ends at the waterfront park and is lined with antique stores, casual or fine dining establishments, a classic movie theatre, and a variety of other shops. The East Tawas/Tawas City area spanning Tawas Bay is the perfect size, small enough to be uncrowded and quaint but large enough to have lots of activities, large grocery stores, and a variety of shops and dining. Nearby Tawas Point State Park juts into Lake Huron with another super beach, historic lighthouse, and an extensive hiking area at the end of the point. Tawas Point is a nationally known bird watching area year-round, with even more to see during spring and fall migrations. The Huron National Forest, the famous Ausable River, Tuttle wildlife refuge, Lumbermans Monument, and many lakes are all within a short drive from the house. Take a scenic 12 mile drive along Lake Huron to the small tourist town of Oscoda at the mouth of the Ausable River but stay in East Tawas where theres a lot more to do.

Every season offers new activities. Spring has a burst of wildflowers and flocks of migratory waterfowl (and very low rates). A northwoods summer is usually warm without being too hot, I only rent weekly during the peak summer season (unless I am open at the last minute). Fall colors are outstanding throughout the area. Fall also brings hunting season. There is ample public land for deer hunting nearby and Tawas Lake hosts incredible waterfowl flights. Spend a great Christmas and New Years holiday week in the North. Winter snows bring icefishing, snowmobiling, or just sitting in front of a wood fire. Open all year.

We had a wonderful weekend at your cottage. Everything was very clean and roomy. In fact, we spent most of our time in the room at the back just relaxing and talking. C.G.

Thank you for the opportunity to rent your place in East Tawas. My son became an avid fisherman, with your home conveniently located, he went fishing daily on Tawas Lake, off the pier in town and on the AuSable River. We saw our first Bald Eagle with my husband's telescope across Tawas Lake, along with many Sandhill Cranes flying in every evening, very exciting! The sunsets where beautiful on Tawas Lake. There were Osprey nesting at Tuttle Marsh, not to mention all the birds at Tawas State Park. Thank you also for allowing us to spend an extra day. We may be repeat customers as we love the location and the amenities in your home. M.D.

Hi, we just got back and wanted to let you know that we really liked it and will take it again next year, same weekend. L.F.

I have discussed "re-kindling" our old tradition of the family going to Tawas Lake in the spring to catch bluegills. The boys and I did well, about 400 or so in the week we were there. They had an awesome time. I would like to, if possible, reserve the cottage for next spring. J.R.

I look forward to renting again. We have so enjoyed it there the last two years. S.R.

The house was great, we enjoyed our stay. I'll keep your place in mind for another trip. S.L.

Thanks again for the cabin. It was perfect for what we needed. J.G.

Thank you so much for sharing your cottage in East Tawas with us. We enjoyed a truly restful few days; something we needed badly! Everything was wonderful! S.Z.

We had a great time. Not knowing exactly what to expect we were very pleased to find a spacious, clean, comfortable and well-stocked home. The proximity of your place is so convenient yet off the beaten path. I'm hoping to come again and next time will try to rustle up a kayak to borrow for exploring some more around Tawas Lake. C.W. The cabin was superb...clean and homey feeling. C.F.

We had a great time. It was quite relaxing and accommodating with all the creature comforts. East Tawas is a nice little town and we loved the state park and beach. T.E.

Thank you so much for sharing your cottage in East Tawas with us. We enjoyed a truly restful few days; something we needed badly! Everything was wonderful! S. V.

Well, we are home from a wonderful week at your cottage/cabin. I expected good, we got FABULOUS - and I want to thank you! The house is adorable - not so important to a man, most likely, but to a woman who must avoid daylight and so spends her days inside, it was very important. It is surprising how a small cottage can feel so big also!! But even better than cute and spacious, the house was spotless!! I used to own a cleaning service and I was totally impressed with how clean Mz. Kirby keeps the house! It was such a joy! E.T.

Everything was great! Your place is very nice, well stocked kitchen and clean!! D.Y.

Thank you for a very clean and tidy cottage to stay in! It was a real pleasure to have everything spotless!! Thanks for supplying a wonderful place to spend a family weekend! M.B.
