About this property

Enjoy the views at this Gorgeous Lakeside Get-away!

You can see the Pte Aux Barques Lighthouse from inside this beautiful cabin on the lake!

Cabin 8: This Listing is for a Two-Bedroom Cabin with one queen bed, one double bed, and a sleeper sofa. This cabin can sleep up to 6 adults.

This is one of eight beautiful cabins between Port Austin and Port Hope, MI that are all just steps away from Lake Huron. Each cabin has a furnished kitchen, bathroom, dining area, living room, and bathroom with shower. Outside you will find an firepit, propane grill, picnic table and patio furniture.

These cabins were built in the 1940's so they have a vintage look and feel, but include all the modern conveniences of home, with electric, city water, heat and A/C, free WiFi, and TV!

The property is located adjacent to Lighthouse Park, and we have beautiful views of the Pte. Aux Barques Lighthouse as well as breathtaking sunrises and sunsets to be enjoyed with the relaxing sound of gentle waves. At night, minimal light pollution makes for star-gazing that can't be beat!

​Includes: Each cabin is furnished with a refrigerator, stove, microwave oven, toaster, coffee maker, dishes, silverware, cookware, picnic table and outdoor gas grill.

Water: Lightkeepers has city water provided from the Port Hope municipal water system.

Internet Service/WIFI/ TV - Free internet, ROKU TV and WIFI. The cabins have flat screen HDTVs.

Cabin had everything we needed and wanted. We are seniors so spent most of our time on the deck reading. The views are spectacular. The host very friendly. We were very fortunate to have excellent Michigan weather. Was lovely. God willing we will be back next year.

We have been coming to this area since the 70s. We love this area because of the lighthouse and being right on the lake. We have been really have been enjoying the new hosts. Thanks for taking good care of us!

Great place for a waterside getaway. Lighthouse and water views were phenomenal. Make sure to wake up for the sunrise! Easy walk to lighthouse. Close enough to get to good restaurants within 10 min. Loved the cabin. Had all the modern conveniences while still feeling close to nature. Beds were comfortable. Hosts were very kind and responsive to any questions. The place could use a good dusting and bathtub could use a good bleaching which was the only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars all around…but that is easily overlooked for the location and everything else felt clean and comfortable. I would definitely go back and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice waterside vacation on Lake Huron.

Me and my wife spent our 3 year wedding Anniversary here. The view of the sun rising over the lighthouse was breathtaking. The sun beaming through the grey clouds in the morning and a rainbow in the afternoon was a real treat to see. Many hiking trails near by to see fall color. Thank you Ryan and Candace for this awesome experience.

We loved the location, beach frontage. There has been alot of updates for appearance. We put a blanket over the couch as it is very old . The shower could use a new insert. Already booked it for next year, iam sure it will be even better.

Amazing views of Lake Huron and the Pointe aux Barques lighthouse. The cottage was clean and cozy, and host Ryan super friendly. We were close to everything we came to see, but tucked away in a quiet corner. Would definitely come back!

Beautiful property on the lake, great location next to county park. The condition and cleanliness were a little concerning. There was a dirty paper towel left on the toilet, cob webs were in every corner. My wife and I cleaned after we arrived and just sweeping the place we had a full dust pan. The flooring was busted up pretty bad so it made sweeping a little tricky. The shower drain was plugged with hair so bad it hardly drains, so I cleaned out the drain. This has been an issue for a while based on the condition of the shower floor. Other than having to clean the place it is a cozy place with a great view.

Rustic oasis

This classic cottage made for a fantastic three-night stay on the shore of Lake Huron. We had all of the amenities that we needed to enjoy wildlife viewing, relaxation, and amazing sunrises. No need for us to add our photos: property photos are accurate.our hosts were friendly and helpful, and never steered us wrong. If we can come back, we will.

Beautiful Rustic, Lakeside Cabin

My son and I wanted to do something different for Thanksgiving and this Lighthouse Cabin on Lake Huron was the perfect setting. We hiked, we enjoyed sunrises and sunsets and viewed the stars. The cabin was so cozy and the views were spectacular. Definitely recommend and can't wait to return!
