Absolutely perfect for the two of us. This getaway is in Tawas City, so located near a beautiful beach that you can walk to. East Tawas, is where the downtown, pier, more beaches are. There is abundant amount of parking. The house had enough dishes and silverware for two. If more are going to be staying, I would get plasticware beforehand. There are 2.5 bathrooms. One has tub/shower, another has a standing shower. Bedrooms have dressers, night tables for storage. Ceiling fans are in every room. It's a perfect place for a more mature couple to four people. We did get Dollar Tree battery run tealight candles to mark the top stair. We kept forgetting it was there. Enjoy!

Clean, comfortable, quiet and accommodating

Paul and the condo were A. The host recommended beaches and activities - Lumbermen's Monument and nearby hiking was our favorite. Back porch is awesome. Beds are soft, extra pillows and linens are included, as well as some other necessities.Couldn’t get an early check in but the late 12pm check out is fantastic.

Very nice home. Both bedrooms are upstairs and the ceilings are tall, so there are a lot of stairs. We loved it. Photos do not do it justice. This is a very nice place to stay.

Absolutely Wonderful Property. So enjoyed our stay

Loved sitting on the porch, so peaceful watching the deer, geese and other wildlife in the backyard and the park across the river. Property is very centrally located. The house is beautifully decorated, the high ceilings make it feel so spacious. It is stocked with everything you may need for your stay. Above all it was SPOTLESSLY clean!!

Time Together

We enjoyed a short stay together fishing, shopping and just having fun. The beds were very comfortable although I getting too old to climb so many stairs anymore but it was nice that we had a half bath downstairs. The only thing I wished I had was a recliner so I could relax while watching tv. We were there to make memories in Tawasand we did!
