In these words. Beautiful Sunrises, Beautiful Sandy Beach, Quiet Nights, Very Relaxing, Beautiful House

My family stayed here for five days in July 2019 and we had a great time! The view is beautiful and having the beach and water right off the back porch was amazing for our family. The home was clean and Jacqui was great to communicate with and has instructions around the property so you know how to operate everything. If you are looking to vacation in Oscoda, MI or just looking for a great place for your family I would highly recommend this property!

My family and I can't say enough about staying at Sunny Slope. We have stayed here a couple of times and it is by far the best on the beach! The location is perfect and Jacqui goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable. All you need to do is bring your clothes and food. There is plenty to do between the games, videos, air-hockey, BBQing, hanging out, and of course the convenient access to the beach. We enjoy cooking in as much as heading to the local restaurants. There isn't an appliance or kitchen need that Jacqui hasn't thought of. We look forward each year to visiting as you can truly relax. When not at the house, we are kayaking and canoing, going to the movies, bowling, playing golf or miniture golf, shopping at the Ben Franklin and other shops in Tawas or walking around Alpena. If you really want a relaxing and chill vacation this place won't disappoint. It will just make you want to come back year after year. Thank you Jacqui and to her family for sharing your home. Looking forward to next year! The Leonattis

When you can step off the back deck of the cottage/house onto white sand and then walk right into the clear water, we knew we were going to enjoy the week with our family (which includes a small grandchild). The area from the cottage to the water is huge, is a great play area for kids and gives great privacy being bordered by sand bluffs on both sides. We met one set of neighbours while at the water but otherwise would never have known anyone was there. The area is very quiet, but it is close enough to the downtown area so it's easy to walk or bike to for ice cream or to sightsee. There are some bicycle trails we used in the area. The cottage décor makes it really feel like a seaside cottage/beachy retreat as the photos online show. There are lots of games to play and books and magazines to read if it's an indoor rainy day, and the kitchen was very well-stocked with almost any item you could need, both big and small (we did, however, leave a suggestion to stock a cheese grater as we made pizzas on the barbecue [but we got by with the rasp that was there]). The king-sized bed on the main floor was comfy with nice sheets. There was a lot of clothes storage so we could unpack and not live out of suitcases. The queen-sized bed upstairs was comfy too; that bedroom is smaller than the bedroom on the main floor but is fine for two people. The second upstairs bedroom (third bedroom), a kids' room, with colourful undersea décor and two sets of bunk beds was a fun room and since we didn't need the bunk beds, the room nicely held a child's play yard (playpen) for sleeping. There is a large fire pit that we enjoyed. You need to bring your own firewood, but it is readily available for about $5/bundle at stores and from people selling it at the ends of their driveways in the area. The owner was great in answering any questions we had, being both prompt and detailed. She also gave us suggestions for rainy day activities, places to visit, things to do, shopping locations in the area, and so on. We spent a couple of hours poking through some décor shops in the town and there are two decent grocery stores where we were able to buy everything we needed for the week. The weekly farmers market was great for buying fresh items. We would happily return to Sunny Slope.

We could not have been more thrilled with out trip to Sunny Slope. The house was everything we needed plus much more. It was clean, welcoming and the perfect size for our family of 5, with space to provide plenty of separation for our two small nappers. The location was perfect. We were within walking distance of the downtown area and pier but the house was far enough off of the beaten path to feel very private and secluded. Jacqui went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we could possibly need for our trip. She was an extraordinary hostess, down to even making sure there was baby shampoo in the bathroom for us. She truly made us feel like the home was set up just for us. In addition, she was incredibly helpful in talking through issues that pertained to having an active two year old on a beach front property. Jacqui was very easy to reach and the one non-urgent question that I e-mailed to her during or vacation was responded to with a phone call within minutes of my sending the e-mail. The absolute best thing about Sunny Slope, however, has to be the AMAZING beach front. I have never seen a lake house with such a gorgeous and spacious beach. Jacqui made sure we had a list of current events and activities around town, but to be honest, we really just wanted to wake up and spend every day outside in the sand. The pictures simply do not do the beach justice. There was so much space between the house and the water that even being with 2 small children we were able to enjoy the beach rather than constantly worry about someone going in the water unsupervised. It was just perfect. Like everything else, the beach was stocked with everything we could have needed. Plenty of seating, picnic tables, a grill, fire pit, lawn chairs, volley ball net, sand toys for the kids, outdoor shower and too many other things to list. We can't wait to go back!

Sunny Slope was everything we could have asked for and more! Jacqui thought of everything needed to make the stay relaxing and comfortable. We cooked most of our meals and found the kitchen to be overstocked with cookware necessities. We traveled with our three boys (six, three, three months) and they loved the amenities as well! The beach was well combed, beautiful sand, and right outside the door. The views (sunrise AND sunset) are stunning. The campfire pit was wonderful for making smores and family memories. Sunny Slope was clean, well maintained, and set the stage for quality bonding and family memories. We will definitely stay at Sunny Slope for any future travels to Oscoda.

I have rented other properties but by far this was the best on yet. First of all the description of the property was very accurate and it was just beautiful. Large kitchen, central air, awesome beds, great location within walking distance of downtown, did I mention the beach??? My kids, four of them, had a ball. Lots and lots of sand and very quiet. I will be going back next year!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and the owners provided excellent service and when I had a question they called me back right away. Great Place!

We just spent a week at Jacqui's beautiful vacation home on the beach of Lake Huron! My family and I just loved this beach house and the lake view is fantastic. The house is nicely decorated, clean, well maintained and you feel like you found a piece of paradise on a big sandy beach that is all yours. We sat in the sunroom many evenings playing games, sat on the deck in the morning with our coffee and spent our days sitting and walking the beach. We also enjoyed catching up around the fire pit . We took a cruise on the Ausable River Queen, went to the local farmers market, and ate out at many of the local restaurants that were very good. We will definitely rent again. Jacqui was a great host and very good to work with. She made sure our stay was perfect! I would recommend this house to anyone who loves the beach and is looking for paradise! Thanks Jacqui! We had a memorable fantastic week! The Martin Family
