Cottage vacation rentals in Tawas City

I booked this beautiful home after my first reservation and host cancelled on me due to the storms. Well, I can say… we are so happy with our stay. It was exactly as described and even better than expected. April really is a one of a kind host, so good that I had to take notes for my own Air bnb adventure. She thought of everything! I’ve never had a better stocked kitchen. We always cook and make a big meal and we sure did not want for anything. We were even greeted with a local baked good and extra sheets and blankets for the dogs. These hosts were the best I’ve had in Michigan, if not the whole country. I’m thankful for people who truly consider someone’s stay and thinks of it all. Thank you again to the hosts. The Cabin was spotless and one of my favorite features was the deer lights.

Host Robert, was very responsive with any issues we had. We were in town for my sisters’ funeral, and it was extremely difficult for me. Unbeknownst to me my 3 brothers and nieces and nephews thought that they would bring food over to us because I was in a not in a good state of mind. They felt I needed people around me and needed to eat. The host Rob, was concerned with the amount of people that were there and clearly stated in the rules of limit of people and reached out to me and very kindly reminded us of the rules. I instructed my family to please go back to their Airbnb’s. I am very apolojetic for putting our host in that position. I would highly recommend this Airbnb. Very beautiful. Thank you Rob, The Martin’s

Cute stone cottage, quiet neighborhood, beautiful setting and nicely decorated.

Cute little cottage on the river. Great location and close to Hubbard Lake. Amanda is a perfect host, great communication and very responsive.

Our family had the most wonderful time. This place exceeded expectations. As other reviewers have mentioned this place is very well stocked. We rode bikes to the ice cream shop, swam at the nearby beach (most days we had it to ourselves), grilled, had a campfire, enjoyed the lovely view from the porch and drove into town to go out to eat. The hosts were very welcoming and even provided a cute little frog table and chair for our little one. We would love to book again some time. Sadly, it does not come with the cute pictured pug. :)

We loved our stay at this cottage. Even though we had rainy weather were still able to enjoy our trip, we felt cozy and right at home. Host is very helpful and responsive.

We were looking for a peaceful retreat-like property and this filled the bill. Every morning we were greeted by colorful sunrises. Each evening we had a full view of the star-filled sky, anchored by a brilliant moon. The property is such that guests have a unobstructed full view of the lake through t the spacious glass door windows. We began our days sitting on the beach as the sun rose. Each evening we ended the day gathered around a fire which was fueled by a generous stockpile of wood provided by Mark and Company. The property has plenty of woods, enough for a mini-wilderness walk. Most everything is provided for every day needs. The modern kitchen is fully-equipped with pots, pans, dishes, silverware etc. Beds are super comfortable. We even surpised ourselves by collaborarting on assembling a jig-saw puzzle provided by the property. Thanks Mark. Great job.

Had a great time with the kids at Edwards place. Definitely off the beaten path, 20 min drive to property driving on gravel and then dirt/sand after the gate, was a little tight between the vegetation on the path with my truck but no damage done(couple minor scratches). You'll get used to the solar power and learn to conserve, make sure to charge during the day. Amazingly beautiful property, crazy quite. We didn't see much wildlife during our stay, mostly a wide variety of birds. we rented the small boat and made it to the sandbar on Hubbard lake, if your not too familiar with boats I would rent a boat in the surrounding lakes before trying to make it by river to Hubbard lake. River is GREAT for kayak, canoe or paddle board plus you won't scare off the wildlife with the sound of the engine. Overall, we had a great time in this secluded setting and spending quality time with the kids without wifi/internet.

This was a very peaceful place to stay on a beautiful lake. Be aware that there is no WiFi, or cable so be prepared to unplug!! Cell service is spotty also. We had a great time kayaking and fishing.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Cutie Pie Cottage! The place was charming, clean, and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The cozy atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home, and the attention to detail in the decor was just perfect. A special shoutout to Marci, who was incredibly helpful and quick to respond whenever we needed anything. Her hospitality truly made our experience even better. If you’re looking for a relaxing and adorable place to stay, this is it!

We will definitely be looking to book Shawn’s place again! It was everything we needed for a nice weekend away in Tawas!

Michelle’s Haven was the ideal Port Austin getaway for my husband and me. Just steps from the beach and a quick walk into town, the location couldn’t be better. Our small dogs loved the private patio, and the quiet neighborhood made for a peaceful stay. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. Our host Shelby was responsive, kind, and helpful. A special bonus was listening to vinyl records while getting ready for our family event — such a charming touch!

the beach was better than expected and the sunrises were spectacular. already planning another stay.

This is by far the best Airbnb stay I’ve had in Northern Michigan. Steven had given great recommendations and was attentive whenever we needed him. In addition the location is perfectly secluded but complimented by a near by bar and downtown area! Highly recommend!

Our event "Sno Droft" because we were competing was stressful. Pete's Retreat just plain took that load off of our plate as did the host Leslie! Just a great location, great neighborhood and great people!

This is a great place. Private location, good size cottage, large sandy area on the lake, great for kids. It was our second time coming here and we’ll be back again!

OMG where do I start......Loved the new retro appliances, the mermaid decor, so close to downtown Tawas and much more!

Great little spot with perfect back deck looking out onto the lake. Had all the amenities and games/kayaks you could want. Would definitely book again!

For what me and my two golf buddies needed for a place to stay, this rental was just perfect! The host communications were first rate. I asked and they answered in a timely manner. Craig 5/19/2025

Great house!!! The place is picturesque, with a beautiful backyard and barbecue area. If you want to stay in silence and listen to the birds singing, come here! I recommend it!

Great place to stay! Beach is great and close to downtown Caseville. Great communication with host! Will stay again!

We had a very nice stay. The house was clean and comfortable. Len was a very responsive host.
