About this property

Tequila Sunrise Beachfront Cottage on Lake Huron

Cozy cottage on private 100 feet of sugar sand beach. The cottage is located on a small bay on Lake Huron with island views. The water is shallow toward shore and gets deeper toward the mouth of the bay. This 788 sq. foot cottage has two bedrooms, one bath and sleeper sofa. All new windows and french doors installed winter 2019. Complete bathroom remodel, new kitchen island, and gas fireplace installed winter 2021 (fireplace available for use Labor Day to Memorial Day) . New tile floor, new baseboard heaters, new barn door, new pocket door, all walls covered in tongue and groove, new dining room table and seating, new side tables, and new dressers winter 2022. It is perfect for a couple or small family getaway.

Large covered porch is facing Lake Huron for breathtaking sunrises, moonrises and lounging on during the day watching the kids or your dogs play on the beach. Two kayaks and three stand up paddle boards are waiting for you to explore our bay. Basketball court and beach volleyball net are ready for fun out of the water. Container of beach toys is on the porch for kids to dig and play in the sand.

You can cook your meals right on the beach in the firepit, on the stove in the kitchen, or on the full sized gas grill behind the cottage. Dine outside on the covered porch or picnic right on the beach. The cottage is less than 10 miles to downtown Alpena for shopping, dining, winetasting, marina, chartered fishing, glass bottom boat tours, and exploring the NOAA maritime museum.

What a wonderful house and couldn't be a more perfect beach location! Beautiful home and lots of character and charm. Located on the BEACH is actually on the BEACH!! Beach fire pit was one of our favorite spot every night for fires and hanging out. And the beach is white soft sand and the water is crystal clear! Will be definitely staying here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute cabin on Lake Huron. The pictures don't do it justice. Quiet area on the lake yet close to Alpena, nature preserves and state parks. The sunrises and moonrises were spectacular, and we were able to see freighters on the lake. Water is clean, clear and shallow close to shore. The bay was perfect for kayaking. Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Host was very responsive. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at the cabin and would highly recommend it to others!

Our family of 5 (three adult children) and small dog stayed 4 nights and had a wonderful time. The layout of the cabin utilizes the space very well and it was nicely remodeled. The beachfront covered porch is a great place for morning coffee and afternoon shade. We chartered a fishing boat in Presque Isle and caught many lake trout, as well as toured the light house there. That was our only excursion, We mostly stayed at the cabin and enjoyed the water during the day and campfires at night. Would definitely go back!
Beautiful sunrise views

I was glad to have my windsurfer as there were a couple of breezy days for sailing. Although, a warning for board sailors, there are many large boulders along the coast in this area, … unfortunately, I broke a fin on one of them!  .

Long weekend getaway

This property has a fantastic sandy beach. The Lake and sunrises are breathtaking. Even though we had clouds and rain most of our stay, the sounds of the lake and enjoying quality time with our family made this a very relaxing and memorable trip. We can't wait to vacation here again.

10/10 on the beach

This was a long weekend girls trip. We had a great stay! House location and view is 10/10. The house is really nicely decorated on the inside with everything you could think of needing. Loved being able to have my dog she had the time of her life playing in the water. Owners thought of a lot of extras. We really enjoyed playing on the beach. Only downside was the flies, we forgot about them attacking in June lol.
