Home away from home
This is our second time staying at the cottages. Perfect location across from the beach, and park. Clean and comfortable. Lots of games for playing indoors when cool, and an outdoor fire pit , volleyball court and outdoor toys for playing outdoors. The host is very responsive, and super helpful. Perfect place whether visiting in the summer or Fall.

Was a great place for our family of 4. Good location and the property was nice and clean. The parking pad for our cottage was pretty tight for a pickup truck to navigate, but there was parking across the street available. Thank you!

When you pull in just ignore the mess to the left as it doesn't reflect where you will be staying. Sadly it is someones elses mess. Your rental will be very clean and neat, and have nothing amiss. The beach and park across the street are great! And the restaurant that is a 3 minute walk was a plus. And not to far, about a mile or two is a great place for breakfast!

Couple getaway
Such a beautiful and well appointed cottage. We had an issue the first night and the owners were quick to respond and resolved the issue. The cottage is across the street from a park with a small beach, we enjoyed sunbathing there. A quick commute to Lexington, great restaurants and shopping. Walk to the Tally Ho from the boathouse for lunch or dinner, nice locals. We would definitely recommend the Lakeshore cottages!

Lovely Cottage
The Boathouse Cottage was so cute! Backyard with chairs, picnic table, and wood for a fire. Inside was clean and had everything you’d need for a weeks stay, or longer. The park across the street offered walkways, and the beach was just a short walk. I would definitely recommend!

Nice place to stay for a Port Huron visit
We were there for a baseball tournament and instead of staying in a hotel, we stayed at the cottage as it allowed for some privacy and was cheaper than the hotel. Just a 20 min to Port Huron and had everything that we needed.

Very nice cozy cottage
It actually seemed like more space than I thought it would be from the pictures. It was clean & cute & located across the street from a park & Lake Huron. We enjoyed the use of the grill one night and the fire pit both nights. It was a Great home base to explore the area.

It's a perfect place in a beautiful corner of the world. The house was clean and comfortable - perfect for myself, my mom, and 10-yr-old son. We enjoyed the fire pit and TV. We loved the park across the street and the restaurant right down the road. Super cozy place. Will be back!
