We instantly felt welcomed and right at home, especially when Jim and Joy made a special point of acknowledging our anniversary. The hosts live on the premises, but they are not intrusive. They encouraged us to utilize the property and made themselves available to assist with any need or questions. Parking is very close to the cabin entrance for easy access. We had a private patio to enjoy the view of the lake & the lovely flowers. The towels and linens were very nice, and the kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cookware, and utensils. There are two dining tables, so my wife had plenty of room to work on crafts projects. They also have a washer/dryer if you need them, as well A/C. We loved watching the ducks, sitting on the pontoon, and building a fire. The amazing Lake Huron beaches are only a 5 min drive and are open to the public. We thoroughly enjoyed Lumberman's Monument dune & trails and Largo Springs. There are quite a few restaurants in Oscoda but be aware that many stores and restaurants aren't open during the middle of the week. It was refreshing not have a long list of check-out tasks, nor threats of fees for every broken rule. Check out was 11am, which makes for a much more pleasant morning than rushing to leave by 10. We will definitely be back!
