Secluded/Quiet Renovated Lakefront Cottage For Families/No Large Groups,Sleep 10

For families looking for a little quiet and seclusion nestled in the woods and right on beautiful Lake Huron then this is the place for you. I'm sorry, this is not a place appropriate for large groups. Welcome to Cedar Tree Beach House. Almost everything in & out is either brand new or newly renovated. Providing a warm and inviting 1700 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms(w/ceiling fans) + loft area with queen air mattress (can sleep 2 adults but there is low headroom and limited space), 3 full bathrooms, living room(w/ceiling fan), dining room(w/ceiling fan), kitchen and sunroom(w/ceiling fan). And that is just the inside… The front offers plenty of parking and a beautifully landscaped and accessible front entry. Walking out the backdoor, you step onto a large 16’x24’ deck with propane grill, patio furniture comforts with umbrella. Walking down the deck steps you then step onto over 360 sq. ft. of paver patio space. Depending on your mood there is open paver space for sun and shaded space provided by a well-appointed pergola. Want a little more shade or seclusion, than camp out in the cabana. Day or night, the propane fire pit is at the ready for a story, a marshmallow or a great backdrop to the sound of the waves rolling around the 88’ of beachfront. (recommend water shoes because of fist size rocks and bigger in the water with scattered sand bars) Once finished on the water, then use the outdoor shower providing both hot and cold water. With plenty of outdoor lighting, the deck, paver patio and cabana are ready for night use.

Amenities are also at your fingertips. City water is first on the list. The outdoor space has plenty of outlets to plug-in any-and-all technology and the cottage is Wi-fi/Internet ready (it's satellite internet and the speeds can be slow and are inconsistent for streaming and/or any Zoom style activities). Knowing kids and parents don’t always agree on TV/Movie/Cable selections we have provided two 55” Smart TV’s and soundbars with PlayStation 3 consoles and wireless controllers. Both TV's also have Dish Hopper 3 Cable with America's Top 200 Cable package that includes FOX Sports for Detroit Tiger Baseball & The Tennis Channel. So, you pick… Dish Hopper 3 Cable, DVD or Blu-Ray movies, games or access to the internet. Kids and parents can have their own entertainment worlds. TV’s are also compatible to “Mirror” to anything off your phone, tablet or computer. A Bluetooth portable speaker is available for all you favorite music. There is also an internet radio available for thousands of radio/music stations from around the world.

Want to limit the kid’s technology use… then let them have their own “fort” space up in the loft.

Along with a fully furnished kitchen, you have a brand new washer, dryer, refrigerator/freezer with automatic ice maker. A second refrigerator with freezer and microwave are available in the cabana. There is a realistic propane fire log kit to make things cozy. Easy ON/OFF & nothing else is needed. The fireplace is located right in the dining room/kitchen area where everyone hangs out & can enjoy. All showers have grab bars for your in/out convenience. There is a portable generator that can power most of the house electrical needs. Furnace and air conditioner are less than 2 years old.

Please remember that our beach house is for family & friend use. We respect our neighbors and their privacy. If you are looking for a "party place" for a large group to be loud, this is not a compatible place for you.

There is a 34 second video showing the beach side view and yard layout. When looking at the photos, click on the "VIDEO" icon (camera symbol) to view video.

The beach is calling… I must go… Cheers!

Wow
You walk in through the front door and say wow at the view of the lake but then you look around at the house and you know its going to be a good vacation. Water pressure and water heat was good for showers. Towels, bedding, and kitchen supplies were all clean and ready to go. Looks like guests have to make their own beds but that's fine to ensure no spiders or anything are an unintended guest (the property managers did do a great job keeping things bug and spider free as much as possible) There were tons of social areas at the home to do whatever you'd like. Big central dining island with plugs. Two "living rooms" each with seating. The loft is awesome for kids or a teenager to make it their own little cool hideaway. The outside had a propane fire pit, sandy lot to play games like volleyball, there was a front yard strip to play lawn games and of course the lake. The cabana shed had everything you needed to stay outdoors for the day too like water and land sport stuff, nice chairs, a fridge to keep the party going I would definitely recommend this place. The property managers clearly take care of it and want your vacation to be awesome.

Great Family Vacation
Great location and cottage for a fun and relaxing family vacation. Grandparents, adult kids and grandkids had a great time. Cottage was clean with nice amenities indoor and outdoor. Nice deck and firepit. The sand area near the cottage was perfect for volleyball/badminton. The long sandy beach area is great for kids to play. Great communications by the host. Overall, we highly recommend this cottage and would come back!

Amazing time!
This property is top notch. The location is perfect and secluded. The home is spacious and well-laid out, perfect for our two families. The outdoor area and the beach were outstanding, great for both adults and kids. We only wished there were less rocks in the water to walk out further, but we managed to make it happen. Communication with Chris was excellent. We’d love to stay again sometime.

Secluded & Flawless
Loved everything about our stay. Home was private, spacious and well stocked with any and all necessary amenities. Clean and very obviously cared for; attention to detail was immediately apparent. My wife and I took our three boys, aged 2-10. Chris was on point with any necessary communication before and after the fact. The privacy of the neighborhood is very guarded. Wonderful sun room, private beach front with rocky bottom for the first few hundred yards, but nothing our swim shoes were uncomfortable in. Well stocked with linens, toiletries, and kitchen appliances; not to mention Dish TV. Weak internet, but this is very typical for the area and more informative than anything else. Unobstructed view of the sky and lack of light pollution made for some great stargazing. We’d come back again 10/10 times.

Peaceful family vacation rental
We were extremely pleased with EVERYTHING surrounding this rental. The house is absolutely perfect and you couldn't ask for a better outdoor area - especially the beach. The only item we wished was better was the swimming area - due to all of the rocks, it is almost impossible to swim.

Rest and Relaxation
This property was beautiful and well taken care of. Check in was a breeze. Everything we needed was available (linens, blankets, bath towels, beach towels, toiletries) Kitchen was well stocked. The beach was beautiful. It was close enough to Wagoner Park for the hiking trails. The only thing missing was a real outdoor fire pit. The propane fire pit was nice but just doesn't give off the necessary heat needed for the crispy cool Michigan evenings. Definitely would stay here again.

Beautiful and comfortable beach property
Our elderly parents stayed with us and loved the property because it was easy for them to get to the beach with very few steps and it is quiet and secluded. The great room on the back of the house overlooking the beach is perfect to watch and listen to the waves with your morning cup of coffee. The property was very clean and well appointed. Communication with the owner was easy and he was very responsive.

The communication leading up to, during and after the stay was great. The home was more spacious than the photos in the listing portray. The views from the sun room were lovely. The local community was pleasant and welcoming. The wonders of the lake were at our doorstep. Watching the lake freighters was interesting. Lots of windows, comfortable furnishings. Indoor amusements were plentiful. Would recommend this home for a stay at any time of the year.

Wonderful place - great owners - great stay
This house has the perfect layout. There was 6 of us and we had tons of room. Many places to sit and visit. There are a tons of games, summer things to do, fully stocked with towels and kitchen stuff. The owner had great communication. The view is spectacular. There are spiders lol but youre in the woods so its expected. It took us about 30 min to get to a restaurant/town so be prepared there is nothing around but its also nice to just be there and enjoy the house, there is plenty to do. Great place.
