This was, without a doubt, the nicest home we have ever had the pleasure of staying at in town. It is decorated so adorably. The kitchen is well stocked with anything you could possibly need. The dining nook worked well for game time. The bedrooms are super comfortable. The living space is perfect for a movie night. If the weather had cooperated more we would've used the outdoor space also. Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend. We look forward to coming back in the summer.

Clean home with charming decor. Excellent location within walking to downtown East Tawas shops, restaurants and coffee shops. Nicole is a good host. She has thought of small details for her guests like q-tips, cotton balls, games and a small library for guests. Kitchen is well appointed with fun dish ware, easy clean pots and pans and small appliances like toaster, waffle maker and coffee system. There is a train that travels through from midnight to 1am that blows the horn and shakes the house a bit but the rest of the night is quiet and peaceful.
