The property is in a cute neighborhood walking distance to downtown East Tawas. But you would never know you are that close. It was very quiet and peaceful. The back covered porch was nice to sit and drink our morning coffee before hitting the beach. The host even provides beach towels which was an added plus. We enjoyed our stay

The Garbage can was full when we arrived. There was an objectionable fragrance device plugged into the wall. I wasn’t sure if the sheets were clean.

This was a great place to stay in downtown Tawas. Easy walking distance to town, but we were going to the state park everyday.

The location and amenities were amazing. It was a quiet neighborhood. The house was comfortable and quaint. It was a little musty smelling though, which caused some issues with allergies, but overall good place to stay. Owners were amazing at communicating with me.

We were 4 adults all in our 70 and 80’s. Love the location, like the layout, owner was very helpful and friendly.
However was greatly disappointed in the sofa’s needed to be replaced, the throw rugs on the floor to cover the dirty carpet, the soft mattress in the bedroom to the right of the bathroom, the dirty back deck and furniture not able to use and messiness of the cupboards in kitchen.would not return unless these things are taken care of. Felt high priced for the dirtyness and uncomfortable furniture. Thanks, Karen Davis

Wonderful and cozy lodging! Our girl's trip was a blast in East Tawas and our lodging was perfect. Close to downtown, clean and cozy, pull-out couch was comfortable(I slept on it myself). Lots of hot water and water pressure was great. We will rent again for sure :)

Stay was great. My only suggestion is your check in says recycling bin available and we only seen big trash bin outside so we took the recycling with us when we left. Unless you meant the little recycling bins in the house but we didn’t want to leave it in the house when we left

8.0 / 10.0
This is a charming little house. The owners have put a lot of home decor into it. And it definitely has a retro feel to it. I liked it.
Could have been cleaner and maintained more. Like the cupboards could use a fresh coat of paint, the deck power washed around the edges. A new back door off the kitchen/deck(paint cracked?) A newer bed spread in one of the 2 bedrooms would go a long way.
But it was a fine little vacation place. In beautiful Tawas. And the owners were very nice and let us in earlier in the day than expected!

East Tawas
Expected more for the price. We were only there 2 nights, but the place really needs updating . It was clean, but very dark inside. Bathroom and kitchen could really use updating, especially the shower. Room air conditioners were very noisy and kept me awake. Outside of house appeared to be in poor repair, and very dirty. The scent of cleaning fluids permeated the house, and my bags after we got home.

It was perfect for the up north getaway we were looking for right by the heart of downtown and close to everything we wanted to do. The place had a very homey feel and felt comfortable the instant we arrived.
