This visit marks the second time that I have rented this wonderful modern-day log home on the shore of Lake Huron. Mark is an outstanding host and maintains his property in top condition. It was every bit as neat and clean in 2024 as it was when we visited in 2021. If you like being just a few steps away from the sand beaches of Lake Huron, this just may be your vacation home option.

Stayed here with our daughter, SIL , and granddaughter ( 4 1/2 yrs old ) and couldn’t have asked for a more memorable “ first time “ staying at this home . Location was perfectly situated by the beach/ park where there was plenty of playground equipment for the 4 year old and beach access for the rest of us ! ( We were stationed here years ago at Wurtsmith AFB so part of our trip was revisiting “ old stomping grounds “ , which included Lumberman’s Monument, Foot-site , the base itself ( which seems to be coming back as a
housing/vacation area which was nice to see) We have already asked if we could do this same time next year and hopefully make this a family “ tradition “ for our “ Anniversary “ visit ! The house itself had great amenities…the mattresses were firm and the pillows were plump, great water pressure and never ran out of hot water ! ( reminiscent of cabins in the past !) and Mark ( and Elizabeth) was great to communicate with and very open to any questions or concerns we might have had . We had one “ glitch “ with the bbq grill that a previous guest apparently did not take care of and resulted in us not having one at the house while we were there …but we were able to just walk across the street to the park area and utilize one of the charcoal grills there ! Memories were made and we hope to do it again next year!

Great time had by all. Beautiful location for 2 and 7 year old granddaughters. Park and beach right across the street. When it rained, set up a mini corn hole game in garage and had fun practicing chipping and putting with plastic balls. Also, can't go wrong taking a trip to Tawas' Ben Franklin. Can walk to ice cream parlor, theater, restaurant, Hallmark. Owner great to work with. Highly recommend.

The property is inviting, opeen amd wonderful. 5 adults and one child were very comfortable. Close to town & within walking distance to anything really. Mark is a super host & communicated that I left something behind & is sending it to me. Thank you for allowing us to stay. We all agreed it was a great place to reunite our family.

The log home is gorgeous, spacious and clean. The setting is perfect— right next to Oscoda Beach Park and town. We loved hearing the waves from Lake Huron and watching the spectacular sunrises. The host was friendly and responsive. We’ll definitely return!

We loved every minute of our stay in this beautiful log cabin. We just left today and I already want to come back! The host is great with communication and the house has everything AND MORE that you could possibly need. The beds were very comfortable, the upstairs loft for the kids was great, and the house was very spacious. Hoping to book again next year!

I almost never write reviews, especially negative ones, but I want to share our experience because my husband and I felt a bit duped by all the five star reviews of this property. The location could not be better and the host was great. We found Mark to be friendly, responsive, and helpful. We were disappointed in the cabin itself, however. It wasn’t clean. The counters had old food on them, the floors were gritty with dirt, there were cobwebs on the walls, there were dead bugs suspended in cobwebs in the light fixture directly above the dining room table and covering both skylights, and many of the cabinet and door knobs were sticky with grime. With the amount charged in cleaning fees, I personally don’t see any reason for the lack of cleanliness. The walls in the upstairs bathroom are covered in what we believed to be mold (there’s some in the downstairs bathroom too, but not as much) and it smells. We nearly left right after arriving but decided to stick it out for at least one night after we’d spent so much on the rental and traveled so far to get there. We’d booked three nights but left after the first night, once we saw the upstairs bathroom. We didn’t feel comfortable staying there with our daughter.

We had a great stay. The location with little kids couldnt be beat- practically on the public beach with a big playground. The cabin itself was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. Communication with the property owner was east and fast. 10/10 and can't wait to stay again next summer!

Our stay was wonderful! Mark is a great host, and his home was ready and very clean when we arrived. It had everything we needed and the location across the street from the beach was perfect for a relaxing family vacation.

The location was perfect as it is across the street from the park and beach as well as walking distance to downtown. Mark was great with answering questions prior to our arrival as well as while we were there. We had a great time!

The home was very cute, comfortable and clean! We loved the beautiful view of the water and the kids had a blast with the beach and playground right outside of the door! The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfy! Thank you!

Oscoda and this property are a hidden gem!
The beach and park right across the rarely traveled street were so convenient. The beach itself was so beautiful and sandy. Despite the unseasonably chilly weather, we were there everyday with our kids. There was so much to do within walking distance from the property: restaurants, ice cream, shopping, and a movie theater! The home is a beautiful custom built log home. Many amenities and necessities were supplied that made our trip so much easier with 6 young kids and our stay more comfortable. The only thing I would suggest are some extra blankets stored, as we had some unseasonably chilly weather for our stay. I would love to book this vacation property on a yearly basis as we all had SO much fun! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Perfect Location, Amazing clean home, communication with Mark was great, he was very in touch with every step of the way.
My husbands grand parents built a cottage on Cedar Lake in Oscoda 70+ years ago and my husbands family of 9 kids vacationed there all there lives and we also vacationed there with our families every year. When she passed unfortunately the cottage had to be sold. We used to bring our kids to the beach and playground right in front of the house whenever we were up there. We always admired your house and my sister in law and I said we would love to see the inside and that it would be so fun to have a place there. Well we have had our first of many vacations there! Booked for next year already! We have rented many different places through VRBO in different areas of the US and this by far surpassed any stay we have had.

This property is wonderful! From the house to the location to the amazing beach, it met all of our needs and more! Thanks Mark for a week where our family could make many great memories!

Everything was as described. House is a great location across from the beach and walking distance to a souvenir store, ice cream shop, couple of restaurants, and pharmacy/liquor store. The beach was never crazy crowded. Owner was very responsive to small issue we had - called within a minute of sending him a text.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I was very concerned about the lack of air conditioning in August and packed fans. Didn't need them at all as the house fan setup made the place borderline chilly (which I prefer).

Mark has the perfect house and location for our family vacation. The kids (3-6 yo) loved the loft with the 4 beds! The house was cozy but with lots of room for the 10 of us. The beach and play area were so close and we enjoyed walking the couple blocks to the ice cream shop every night. We look forward to returning next year!!

3 day getaway
The house and location are great. The weather could have been a little warmer, but we made the most of it. I thought it should have been cleaned better for the cleaning charge collected. Also it could use an upgrade of the grill (we grilled in the park after the first night) and the bath towels. All in all, it was a good stay.

Lovely home
We really enjoyed our stay here, the home had everything we needed to be comfortable and make meals. Laundry and dishwasher detergent, spices, plenty of cookware made it a breeze. It was our first time visiting the area and enjoyed venturing into Pawas Bay for activities since it wasn’t yet sunbathing weather in early June. We had no issues at all and definitely recommend staying here if you’re considering the area!

Perfect getaway
We had a great time at this house, the location is perfect just steps away from Lake Huron which is crystal clear and the beach is very well kept. The beach has a great boardwalk, playground for the kids and a small splashpad. The house itself is very open so it never feels cramped and the windows in the front give a great view of the water. I was a little concerned about not having any AC in the house, but the whole house fan does a nice job of keeping it cool and there is a small AC unit in the master bedroom as well. Walking distance to ice cream and restaurants in the area just makes it a perfect getaway. The host was communicative and answered any questions we had immediately. There is a nice folder with information about the house and surrounding area that we found very helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

The property was exactly as listed. Space and location were perfect. It could use a good overall cleaning but was good enough.

Great Location & host
This home is conveniently located only 1-2 blocks from downtown shops and overlooking the beach and Lake Huron. The host, Mark, maintained excellent communication when I had questions and was very accommodating. Since it was a very hot and humid week, the extra fans we brought were essential.

Great place for family vacation
The house was exactly as described. Lots of space for our family. We enjoyed time on the outside deck. The location is amazing. You walk right outside and are at the beach. Our boys loved the beach which had a basketball court, volleyball, and playground equipment. It was a perfect Michigan getaway. Mark was a great host. He was very responsive to any questions. Everything was all set when we arrived.

Great Location!
My family and I had a great time at this property. There was plenty of space for all of us to feel comfortable. The location was perfect especially with little ones. We were able to pack up a few things and walk right across the street to a beautiful beach, playground, and splash pad. Thank you for having us, we hope to be back!

Family Beach Getaway
We loved the size of the house and the location to the beach. The beach was amazing. Our family had a great time. Our only issue was the cleanliness of the rug in the living space. It smelled like a dog had peed on it, and when you sat in the living space you could smell the oder. It was off putting. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

OSCODA Fun
Although the weather had a mind of its own, it didn’t damper the fun we had in OSCODA. Enjoyed a few meals at The Office and ice cream down the street. The rain kept the number of vendors down at the Art/Craft fair but still had fun shopping. The house is a great location to the beach and comfortable to hold our family. Nice large eating area and comfortable bedrooms. Great time!!
