We had a wonderful stay! The property was in a great location with Port Crescent State Park and beautiful beaches nearby as well as the best mini golf in the area. The space was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it easy to relax and feel right at home. Everything was exactly as described, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!

This was my family's third time staying in Port Austin and this cabin was one of our favorites. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Tammy was great to work with and very responsive. We would love to stay here again next year!

This place is such a gem. The house was spacious and comfortable. Very dog and child friendly. Lots of items stocked so we didn’t have to pack so much. Great location with so much to do near by. Looking forward to our next stay!

It's wonderful to hear that your family and dogs enjoyed the property and all that Michigan's Thumb has to offer.

This Family Friendly vacation home is right on M25 with access to the water with multiple scenic parks to drive to. A walk next door to the Sandy Dunes Miniature Golf course and Ice Cream Parlor was such a treat as well. Beds were comfortable with 2 baths, full kitchen and a family room,(with WiFi), and with a shaded deck and a propane BBQ..This was such a relaxing week before the 4th of July. I’m looking forward to coming back next year!
Great all around stay. Canoes, mini golf, ice cream and so much family fun within 2-3 minutes.
