Large house, very spaces home. Extra large living room, large master bedroom and bathroom. House was located just off of 23 close to all the activities in the area.
Everything was great from check in to check out! Owner was quick to respond and the house could not be in a better location!! Will definitely stay again next year!!
Our stay was so comfortable and provided so much room for our grandchildren to enjoy. The location was perfect to get to everything we needed. Clean and provided all the comforts of home!
A spacious 3 bedroom property near Lake Huron and the town of Tawas City. The park across the street was a great place to walk the dogs. Great location and access to many activities.
We were in town for my daughter's wedding, which was only a mile away on Wilbur Road and made it so convenient. The house has a perfect set up and even allowed dogs. Beautiful area to walk the dogs. House was clean and comfortable. Ryan was so accommodating, allowing us to check in early, which helped us greatly. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your home.
Recently renovated and very well done, this house has everything you need for an "up north" getaway. Plenty of great views and lake access, along with room for our off-road vehicles (3) in the massive driveway. I would recommend this property for anyone looking for a getaway in the Secord, Gladwin, Houghton areas.
I enjoyed a restful weekend during the fall at this house, which was likely much too large for just me. I made ample use of the kitchen. I enjoyed the parks on Lake Huron, some located just a block or two away.
Ryan was great from the beginning. We had a bit of a mess with the dates somehow on my end after booking. Ryan was able to work with us and VRBO and get things taken care of! House was perfect! Thank you!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Great location. Needs new air conditioners!! Didn't have a shower liner in one bathroom. There were minamal screens in windows. It had an odor of dog. Bathroom door handle was broke. Owner communicated well and was convenient. Acomadated a big group!
We had a great weekend!!! Plenty of open room for all of us!! I will say though that when it says air conditioning it’s NOT central air like I assumed, it was a room air conditioner and it was soooo hot up there and with humidity noone slept good..not used to it being so hot and humid up there but it sure was!! That’s my only complaint other then that it was a nice place!!!
The house was super big. Plenty of room. We were basically across the street from the beach. The grocery store is right here. The house was clean the beds and the bathrooms were super nice! We had a really great time!
