The house is cute and comfortable, on a quiet street. The house was supplied with everything we needed and more. The porch was cute and cozy and we spent a lot of time out there.The Lake was close, but the public beach was several blocks away and you could not see the lake from the cottage.

Perfection in port austin

Everything was above and beyond about this property. Not only was it incredibly clean and seemed brand new, but the beds are the most comfortable I’ve ever had in any type of vacation rental. We love it and Jason was a great host!
