About this resort

Studio Type Cabin with kitchenette right on the beach! Beautiful Lake Huron views with private grill and picnic table shared firepit and sandy bottom lakeshore. Sofa, refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave, sink, coffee maker and toaster make staying in as much fun as going out. Unit is number 4 of 6 in a six unit resort. One bedroom, one bath studio kitchenette right on the beach, sunrise view from bed! This unit has one large bedroom with one bed in it. The couch is also in the same room that can pull out into a full size bed to accommodate two more to sleep but it is a tight squeeze. The kitchen is connected without a door as seen in the pictures. This unit is perfect for a couple or a small family and has everything you need for a weekend getaway or fun family vacation. Leave your cares at home and lull yourselves to sleep while listening to the crash of the Lake Huron waves from your bed in this charming rustic adorable room right on the beach! Not recommended for four adults, sleeps 3 comfortably.

Pets welcome but MUST be non-aggressive toward all people and other pets.

This resort is located just south of Oscoda. - Serradella Golf Course and Tawas Creek Golf and Country Club are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Huron-Manistee National Forest and Tawas Point State Park.

Overall our stay at the Lazy Fish was very nice. The room was very clean when we got there

Hi there: Everything was as expected, the view and the beach were spectacular. Other guests very friendly. Your cleaners were super nice and while cleaning another unit made sure to ask if I was all set. Wifi and TV were great, I appreciated that! I have a couple of recommendations - You need a plug in the bathroom Hooks on either side of the shower would be great as well for hanging towels or wet bathing suits I certainly have no issues with doing my own dishes but you need dish towels in the kitchen My strongest recommendation though, is blinds for the windows, the curtains were very thin and see through at night with lights on inside, traveling alone I did not feel comfortable in the unit with the lights on at night especially with folks walking back and forth on the deck and also for the window over the bed facing the road. But with that said, I'd come back again! Thanks Deb

Not only are the owners nice but the guests are too! The Lazy Fish has the most stunning, pristine peaceful beach I've ever strolled on. The location is a true gem as are the folks, too. We enjoyed our stay so much we are going to come back again next summer. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The perfect place to get away. Everything we needed was provided. Step outside your door right to the beach. I was very happy with my stay. I will be returning next year with my whole family. This will definitely be a place we visit often in the future.

We were so amazed at how close our door was to the beach. The views from our room were amazing. The weather could have been better(it was beautiful the day we left!) but we enjoyed every moment we had there. Will definitely go back.

Quaint small cabin located on the shore of Lake Huron. Perfect place to downshift from the hectic pace of worn and the city. We had a wonderful time on the beach and enjoying the many state parks, lighthouses and National Forest! Plenty of activities to take part in or just relax on the lakeside - this place has everything. (Except traffic!! Which makes it all the better!)

I loved the location of this property. Right on the beach. Beautiful view. The accommodations were a bit rough. Flies (lots) to deal with on entering the tiny bungalow. Thin walls so every sound was amplified. Only a bed (comfy) and sofa (that needs to be replaced - I wouldn’t sit on it). No place to relax inside. The kitchen and bathroom were fine and the shower was awesome. So there’s that. Mostly you’re outdoors so a lot of this is really just about comfort in the overnight hours or if there’s inclement weather. I’d go again now just knowing it’s a bit rough. Not expecting more, it’s just fine. The essentials and nothing more.

This was a perfect little spot for my kids and I! It was so nice not having to pack up and go anywhere we had everything we needed right there. Hearing the sounds of the waves with the windows open was so relaxing, all the neighbors were wonderful as well! I will definitely be coming back!

Everything was great except for the wobbly floor by the front door that I kept forgetting about when I stepped on the floor the shelf would rock back and forth and I kept thinking it was going to fall over, the other thing was a cloudy window I couldn't see the water from the kitchen table while we were eating and the only reason I said anything about it was because it was a little cool while we were there and we didn't really get outside but thats not Tim and Nancy's fault other than that it was good time,great location

We couldn’t have happier with our stay. The cabin was as clean as could be and cute as a button. It felt so private but we were also super close to downtown Oscoda and a short drive to all of the area attractions. Check in and out was a breeze. 100% will be staying again.

We enjoyed the view and waterfront beach experience, which made it all worthwhile. The inside is cute and comfortable, though a couple unfortunate aspects dimmed our view overall: 1.) Flies inside. Likely a result of windows being left open prior to our arrival, we had an infestation of flies. Killed at least a couple dozen within first night. After we'd closed windows, that helped cut the number down; though several were inside our entire 3 day stay. Not something that could've necessarily been avoided by owner, just unfortunate. 2.) A decent sized spot on floor by the door was quite soft and felt as if it was soggy, about to collapse. This seemed to indicate a need for floor repair. We put a towel down to mark the spot to avoid as much as possible, but difficult because it's right in front of doorway. That being said, we enjoyed the experience for the most part especially with the waves, beach views.

Perfectly Imperfect!

Perfectly Imperfect!

Clean beach, sand up to your door without a retaining wall (due to water levels over the past 1-2 years) = priceless and you get that here in #4 at Lazy Fish. I’ve been coming to Oscoda for about 30 years and I prefer the nostalgic feel,……And that’s a guarantee here. If you’re looking for the Taj Mahal, this isn’t the spot, but I say that in a great way. A northern MI cabin on the lake shouldn’t be decked out & fancy. With that being said (and I said this to Tim & Nancy directly, not being negative/passive aggressive online), there are some updates necessary. The pullout couch in #4 is being replaced, wish it was before we arrived! Needed more linens, but Angel got them to us the next morning (thanks). Couple other suggestions, reclining lawn chairs, sand games (ladder golf or corn hole), kids sand toys, etc. —> all of which are at their other property, Miami Beach. I suggested a Dollar Tree dish tub at everyone’s door to clean feet before entering cabin (thanks so much, they got us one before we left!!!). Bottom line, it’s perfectly imperfect with the nostalgic cabin vibe! Tim & Nancy are WONDERFUL and literally will do everything in their power to fix an issue and/or provide what you need within minutes. I only listed the suggestions because I feel we all can strive to do and be better! I would come back for sure, especially if they continue to update (oh and ceiling fans in Lazy Fish #4 like the other units!!). Thanks for allowing us to make lifetime memories on your property!

Staying at the Lazy Fish was sure a treat! To be right on the water and to be able to watch the sunrise each morning was just beautiful. Centrally located to Tawas and Oscoda was another bonus perk. From just relaxing on the beach to exploring the area, my time at the Lazy Fish was exactly what I needed to rest and renew!

Our experience was great on this private beach. Enjoyed our time and our dog loved being around the other pets - two neighboring couples with their pets on the same property. Peaceful. Refreshing.

My wife and I were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and I found this location. It has everything you need for a peaceful and relaxing getaway. It was secluded and right on the water, which we loved! The site was clean and the owners were very nice and helpful. We never even left the site because we wanted to be by the water and have a campfire, convieniently right in front of the front door! Highly recommended site and will definitely be booking with Tom and Nancy again!

The cabin was small, rustic, and simple...but very clean. The location was wonderful - right on the beach so only steps away from the water. Each day the sky and water offered us such beauty!

Beautiful view, excellent base camp for exploring the area.

We had a great time at Tim and Nancy's place, which they are in the process of renovating. Though the unit where we stayed (#5) was on the small side, we didn't mind since it had great natural lighting and was very well equipped. It had a nice outdoor seating area and an outstanding view of the water. We had a chance to look inside the other units (since they were not occupied) and were very impressed by the updates that had been done. It is a well-managed operation. Since the place is super close to the water, we could hear the sound of lapping waves. What a treat! We will be back for sure.
