About this property

#8 | Spacious & Quiet Near the Sand

Summary:
Welcome to Barefoot Beach Resort, a laid-back spot on the best beach of Lake Huron. Cabin 8 is one of our only one-bedroom cabins—but with a spacious kitchen and living area, it definitely doesn’t feel small. The front patio and screen door open up to a clear view of the lake, just a short stroll from the beach.

Inside, you’ll find a comfy queen bed and a new pullout couch, plus a unique bathroom setup that’s somehow still makes sense. It’s a great fit for couples or a small family who want to kick back, cook a few meals, and enjoy the beach without overthinking it.

The Space:
☀ One bedroom with a queen bed + pullout couch (sleeps 4)
☀ One bathroom—separate toilet room + shower in a (non-working) jacuzzi tub
☀ Full kitchen with plenty of counter space + a 4-person dining table
☀ Living room with Roku TV (if you feel like turning it on)
☀ Charcoal grill, picnic table, patio chairs, and some beach toys
☀ Shared fire pits literally on the beach
☀ High-speed Wi-Fi (good enough for Zoom, if you must)
☀ Easy self-check-in, no keys or hassle
☀ Starter Kit: Coffee, paper towels, soap, trash bags, toilet paper, charcoal, lighter fluid, etc. (restock as needed)

☆☆ A little more space to stretch out ☆☆
For a one-bedroom, Cabin 8 is surprisingly roomy. The living area and kitchen are bigger than you’d expect, which makes it a nice option if you’re staying longer or just want to spread out a bit.

☆☆ Close to the lake, with a clear view of the water ☆☆
While it’s a couple cabins back from the beachfront, the screen door and patio open up to a direct view of Lake Huron. You’re still only steps from the sand.

☆☆ Grilling, s’mores, and bonfires on the beach ☆☆
Bring the marshmallows. The shared fire pits are right on the lake, and there’s nothing better than ending your day watching the fire crackle and waves roll in.

☆☆ Great for families, couples, or fishing trips ☆☆
Whether you're trying to get the kids sandy and tired, spend a weekend unplugged with your partner, or sneak in one last cast before sunset, this place works.

our stay

When we arrived we had to text to obtain the code which took a while, we found the sliding door was unlocked before the code was sent. When you flushed the toilet a gurgling sound came out of the kitchen sink and it smelled like sewer. Kitchen sink took forever to drain, many windows without screens and the sliding door did not lock nor did it have a screen. Location is good overall comfort was good but the place certainly needs upgrades.
