My friend and I were looking for a place to get us by some water and see the beautiful colors. This was a quaint place to stay without breaking the bank, and on fixed incomes our bank is easy to break. We enjoyed our stay, it had everything we needed. Thank you for the quiet ,relaxing getaway.

The location was great. I loved being right on the beach. However the windows in the cabin were so cloudy, that it diminished the view. Also the cheap toilet paper was an issue.That being said, I did enjoy the overall experience and would definitely come back.

I know some of the reviews say it needs a facelift and that’s true, but it was very clean and we loved it. It was quiet and peaceful, and I love that it was dog friendly. The owner stopped by and brought more fire wood for the fire pit! There was charcoal for the grill and it had everything else that we needed. I loved that we could walk out onto the beach and my dog could swim!! It was a typical up north Michigan vacation spot and we will definitely be back!!!!

The beach was so beautiful! The buildings are in need of a bit of a facelift but the room was impeccably clean. The bed was comfy and we had a nice visit.

Beautiful views!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is small but has all the essentials for a quaint stay on the beach. The views are spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit. Falling asleep to the waves was therapeutic and those sunrises were amazing!

Everything about this cabin was incredible. VERY clean and comfortable. The hospitality was outstanding. So kind and so accommodating. Anything you could need they had in the cabin. Went over Easter weekend so a little chilly but they had extra wood we could use to keep the fire rolling! Will definitely be renting with them likely a few times a year. Perfect weekend get away. If I could give it 100 stars I would!

Perfect get away with the perfect sunrise view

Staying at the Lazy Fish was sure a treat! To be right on the water and to be able to watch the sunrise each morning was just beautiful. Centrally located to Tawas and Oscoda was another bonus perk. From just relaxing on the beach to exploring the area, my time at the Lazy Fish was exactly what I needed to rest and renew!

You cannot best the location of this rental! We really enjoyed ourselves out on the pristine sandy beach and in the crystal clear water! The unit is small which we knew going into it but the outdoor space is huge and we were really inside just for sleeping
