About this property

Port Austin Cozy Cottage!

Located right at the tip of Michigan’s Thumb, Port Austin is one of the rare places where you can catch both sunrise and sunset over the stunning waters of Lake Huron. Known for its natural beauty, this area offers incredible hiking opportunities—including the iconic Turnip Rock—and endless outdoor adventure.

Our cozy, centrally located cottage sits on the peaceful south side of M-25, just minutes from downtown Port Austin and Caseville. Whether you’re looking for a summer escape, a fall color tour, or a snowy winter retreat, this rental is available year-round. Summer is a favorite with its long beach days and warm nights, but autumn brings breathtaking foliage, and winter offers a serene, snow-covered quiet that’s perfect for recharging.

About the host

Host profile image

My husband and I purchased this home in 2011. We have put a lot of love and hard work into fixing it up over the years. We had kids shortly after and have created amazing memories! As our children are getting older it’s harder to make the trip every weekend so it’s we decided share our home so others can make memories and enjoy all that Port Austin and the surrounding area have to offer!

We have a large yard with a bonfire pit. There is a wood burning stove for those fall and winter nights where you just want to relax. In the winter the frozen lake is beautiful! There are local snow hills, cross country skiing trails, snow shoeing. Downtown Port Austin has an ice rink with equipment rental available.
