This property is in a great location in Port Austin! The bathrooms were very clean and it was great having a second 1/2 bath. If you are staying during warm weather, even with the one unit, it is hard to keep the house cool, but the listing was accurate- we just ended up with extra warm weather during our stay. The grill is on the smaller size if you are planning to grill. The yard is huge and great for outdoor games.

A simple but well decorated home! Very clean and comes with all the amenities. On a quiet street close to town and the beach, a delicious restaurant and bar only 3 minutes away. A cute small backyard with patio furniture and a spot for fires. Bring some food to cook as the kitchen is fully stocked with dishes an oven and microwave. The guest is very accommodating, texted back about all our questions. The washer and dryer were a godsend and the password code for the door meant we never worried about leaving it unlocked. A great house for a family stay or a couples getaway. Can’t wait to go back!:)

My family had a BLAST staying at The Huron Host. Location, location, location walking distance to everything in town. Love that it has four bedrooms as I had family coming up for a few days at different times. Would love to come back next year.

The check in process was smooth and the owner very responsive. We had six adults staying there and it worked quite well. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the bedrooms. The kitchen was clean and had all we needed. The deck had seating for about 10. TV worked great, included Netflix. Suggestions: ceiling fan or exhaust vent in bathroom, mirrors in bedrooms, railing on front porch for handicapped. I would highly recommend the Huron Host! Thanks Kristin.

Our group of friends enjoyed our stay very much. When we arrived to find the A/C was not functioning I wasn’t sure we would even stay. But I contacted the owner who was very quick to resolve the issue to our comforts. The location is quick to most places yet very quiet.

Huron Host Holiday
This rental is right in the middle of town, while still being shielded from the main street happenings. The home is spacious and comfortable. During my stay, we had an issue that could have ended the trip early. The host was immediately responsive and supportive to ensure we were able to enjoy the vacation as planned. Thanks again!My family truly enjoyed experiencing Port Austin with the Huron Host.

Nice place to stay
The renovation of the home made it nice. Clean up could have been better. There was sawdust in the cupboard from mounting the microwave. The master bath toilet had not been finished, the water was not turned on. Owner was very helpful and was quick to return calls. We would 100% stay again.
