About this property

Pontoon available on site to rent.

While we lovingly refer to our home up north as "The Cabin" it is far from just a cabin. Cottage on the outside, cabin on the inside, this home has it all! LAKE, ORV trails, a stunning home, and best of all you can bring your fur babies (dogs only - $50/dog). Ramp to front porch for more accessibility. Pontoon boat (10 person, 25 hp) available to rent ($400/week). This unique 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home is located on Little Island Lake and is less than 0.5 miles from the ORV trails (Sand Lake ORV Trailhead). When the lake level is normal, we have a large sandy swimming area. Additionally, our cabin is located approximately 10 minutes from Corsair Trails, for hiking and groomed cross-country skiing. Only 20 minutes from Red Hawk Golf club in East Tawas. Be sure to check out Lumberman's Monument and Largo Springs in Oscoda. Enjoy the peace and quiet of this lake front home as you sit on the deck and enjoy your morning coffee. Lake side deck also has a patio table and new Weber gas grill allowing you to enjoy nice summer evenings with family and friends. Little Island Lake is shallow with a sandy bottom bottom along the shore and island when water levels are normal. We have a large sandy beach and sand toys for kids. Rental includes kayak’s (2), paddle boards (2), and corn hole. Additionally, the house has air conditioning, a washer and dryer, dishwasher, kitchen aid stand mixer, pots, pans, plates, bowls, cups, silverware, blender, electric pancake griddle, electric skillet, measuring utensils and includes sheets and bath towels. We have a baby gate already up at the bottom of the stairs, a booster seat to strap onto a chair, a pack n’ play, and a step stool in the bathroom for kids. Max of 10 people (not including infants <1 year of age). There are plenty of sleeping options with 2 bedroom’s on the main level (2 with queen beds) and a large loft (2 queen bed’s, 4 twin bed’s, and a full size futon). There is also a queen size sleeper sofa in the living room. Our home is located approximately 15 minutes from Tawas/Lake Huron (beaches and parks) and is less than 3 hours from Detroit. Cable TV and WiFi included.

Dog friendly lake house
I don't even know where to begin! We've been looking for a Northern MI lakefront property that would allow us to bring our two dogs. This was it! The host, Courtney, was absolutely amazing! She answered all my (many!) questions immediately and the check in process was seamless! Even though it rained for half of our stay, we still had an amazing time! The dogs loved the lake and played in it every day! This house had everything you could ever need! Just bring your clothes and food and you're all set. The grill worked great, firepit was awesome and we were able to even kayak. We are definitely going back! We found our spot - no need to look anywhere else!!!! Thank you, Courtney, for your hospitality and opening up your beautiful lake home to us and our fur babies!!!!

Bradley vacation
I can’t say enough about Courtney’s beautiful lake house. It is stocked with essentials, roomy enough for our family of 6 adults and one child, has 2 bathrooms, beds are all comfy, and the loft that sleeps 8 overlooking the lake is fabulous. This is our 5th fall staying at the house and will continue to return every fall.

Perfect R&R Place!
Courtney & her crew thought of everything to deliver a perfect place for some R&R! All the essentials are provided & the lake home and grounds have everything you need to enjoy time away! Being able to rent the pontoon from them rather than finding one from a marina was a huge bonus! The lake is small, but so peaceful! More a fun “catch & release” fishing spot than swimming, but we enjoyed both while we were there. Wonderful for kayaking… especially to the little island. Our kids loved that! The house gave plenty of space for everyone, while still feeling nice & cozy! (And so organized which adds to the peacefulness!) We’re so thankful to have had the opportunity to spend some overdue time away here!

70th Birthday Getaway
House was lovely! Just as in the description of the place. Had everything we needed while we were there. Weather was not good, which is always unpredictable, but we made the best of it by playing games and spending family time together. The only bad thing i can say is that the grill was filthy when we got there. We tried to clean it but it was so dirty we gave up and never did use it. It was too cold to eat outside anyway, so it didn't really ruin anything for us. The owner was very quick to respond whenever i had a question. The pontoon boat ran well and gave us some fun fishing time out on the lake. The area is very nice for a relaxing getaway! Overall, very nice!

About the host

Hosted by Courtney Iwanicki

Host profile image
My husband, my parents and myself decided to go in together and purchase a lake house for us to spend vacation time at and as a place that others would be able to rent and enjoy.

Why they chose this property

We spent almost 2 years looking for what we consider the "perfect place". That included a cottage/cabin with minimal repairs (because who wants to spend your vacation time making repairs), being on a lake with a sandy bottom so the kids can play and being within riding distance of ORV trails. It took us a while, but we finally found what we consider to be the perfect place!!

What makes this property unique

One of the great things about this home is it's open main level floor plan. My dad is in a wheelchair and he get's around great on the main level. Hopefully this fall we will be installing ramps for the front porch and back deck!!!
