It was a great girlfriend getaway. We wanted to be on the beach and enjoy sitting reading and relaxing by the water and this property delivered. The cottage was clean and well stocked. The host replied to our questions and concerns very quickly. We would definately book again.

CAUTION: no ceilings in bedrooms, they are open to each other. No privacy.The place was clean and cozy. Great place for a couples getaway. The sun porch was great to watch the sunrise and boats.The second bed is a full not a queen and needs replacingOverall pretty good experience.

This is a beautiful and cozy place right on the lake. The sunroom is especially lovely, and the lake area is very quiet - great for reading and watching sunsets, etc. The kitchen is well equipped tools-wise, but you will need to bring salt, oil etc. - recommend stopping at a larger grocery store if you plan to cook a lot, but the store in town is pretty well stocked.The one thing I wish was clear is that the two bedrooms are separated by a wall that doesn't go all the way to the ceiling, so you can hear everything in the other room. It wasn't a big issue for us but may be for others.Overall a great stay!

This place is absolutely beautiful. The beach property was so nice and relaxing. The location was just outside of the city and easy to access restaurants and stores. We were able to spend time in both Port Sanilac and Lexington during our vacation. During our stay, we had an issue with the water and it took longer than we would have liked for it to be resolved. Communication took longer than we would have hoped but they ended up full resolving the issue. Overall, I would recommend this location for the beach front property.

Thank you for the recommendation and the kind words about the property. You're right that the water issue took longer to resolve than it should have, and the communication lagged along with it — we're sorry about that and we're working on faster response times so problems get handled while you're still enjoying your stay. Glad you got to explore both Lexington and Port Sanilac. We'd love to host you again.

Amazing get away for two

This house has everything, including the perfect location, for an amazing, relaxing escape from the every day! Perfectly situated to hear the waves crashing on the shore. Comfy furniture, a bonfire pit, bring a book or your favorite movie, it really is the perfect escape!

Over priced

Door screen was ripped, bedroom window wouldn’t close/lock, rugs dirty, back porch was dirty and overgrown weeds but the view was nice. Second room just had foam as the mattress so luckily no one was with us and had a very tacky Desk that didn’t belong in a bedroom.

Cozy place, great view, quiet and rustic

We enjoyed our stay first week of June with cooler weather. Cozy place, great view, firepit, quiet and rustic. House is offset far from road which make this place feel secluded and private. The back porch 20fett off the breakwall makes this place, with access to beach below. Just needs a little TLC to be outstanding from very good. Needs outside lawn Maintenace, power washing and fridge cleanout, otherwise this cabin is well done. A couple nice to haves LED lighting in Kitchen. Only a shop light makes it dark at night cooking. Also no smoke detector or Fire Extinguisher [ I always bring my own] would be $40 well spent by property owner. NOTE: No AC, this place gets hot in summer days. Other than missing Adirondack chairs in pictures, this cottage is as seen in pics.
