- "Loved our stay. Only suggestion would be some ADA 17 inch toilets or grab bars" - "The cabin was nice. The listing was not clear as to which cabin had an unobstructed view of the water. We were booked in the Garden cottage. It sets behind the other two cabins. You can see the water between the other two buildings. The cabin was comfortable and in a convenient location. " - "Ended up being a great stay! Was concerned on arrival. Our lodging (Garden view) was behind another building and the lake view was mostly blocked (I wasn't aware of this at time of booking). I asked the property manager if we could move to the beachfront and they made it happen. Make sure you head down to Sunrise Kava Cafe and get some great coffee!"

Casa Luna – A Modern Lake Huron Retreat with a dash of Puerto Rican Soul (I’m originally from Puerto Rico ☺️).
This is our family’s beach house on the Sunrise Side of Lake Huron—where the sparkling water and sugar sand feel like the hidden beaches of Puerto Rico… but right here in Michigan!
Set on 1 acre of peaceful wooded land with 50 feet of private shoreline, Casa Luna has been completely renovated from top to bottom to blend modern comfort with natural beauty. Every detail has been thoughtfully updated: new plumbing, electrical, insulation, windows, drywall, furnace, central A/C, and more. All furnishings and appliances are updated —including beds, linens, cozy sectional, dining set, fridge, dishwasher, stove, and microwave. Even the kitchen accessories and cookware are fresh and fully stocked.
Step outside to the lakeside deck for morning coffee or sunset dinners. Walk down to the sugar sand beach, where the water slopes gently and safely—perfect for kids to wade and play. In the evenings, gather around the fire pit under the stars and watch the moon reflect off the lake—the magical moment that gave Casa Luna its name.
Inside, you’ll enjoy high-speed WiFi, a smart TV with cable, full-size washer and dryer, and plenty of towels for your stay. In the winter, the frozen lake views are breathtaking and serene.
Located just north of East Tawas and south of Oscoda, you’re close to dining, hiking, golf, and more—but with enough space and quiet to feel like a true escape.
Casa Luna is our home away from home, and we hope to build a community of repeat guests who love it just as much as we do. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, you’ll quickly see why this place is so special.
- "Great little beach getaway for our family! Loved the beach chairs and sand toys. Plenty of towels and every slept great! We made almost all our meals, the only thing that would suggest that would of made our stay easier would be a crockpot! We loved the recommendation of the Hilltop bar for dinner! Great priced, yummy hidden gem on the rainy day. Would recommend a trip to Sturgon Point Light House while you visit too!" - "Awesome property, had everything we needed. Close to town but far enough away to be isolated. Great surroundings. Recommend it to anyone."

- "This home was very well appointed and located very close to town, right on the Au Sable river! We stayed here spring break/Easter weekend to do some fishing and get away and the best part of the trip was definitely this house. The weather didn't cooperate to allow our littles to get outside much (2 and 6 yo), but the home was cozy, stocked with board games, cards and puzzles, and smart TVs in both bedrooms and the living room. The kitchen was stocked with everything we could have needed, including coffee which was great when we realized we forgot to bring some. Even spices, extra cleaning and paper products, and some pantry staples which is rarely the case with vacation rentals! The hosts were super kind and loaned us some extra fishing tackle for the kids, left us some tasty treats in the house to welcome us, and even left some sweet little Easter baskets for the kids on Easter morning! I'm so thoroughly impressed with how nice this home was and we definitely would stay here again!"

RULES
We want you to have an awesome experience at the house and hope you enjoy your whole vacation. Our biggest philosophy is leave it as you found. I.e clean up after yourself and treat the property as if it were your own. We think this is a place you’ll want to stay again after you experience it the first time.
++WHAT TO EXPECT++
Each of our vacation rentals possess distinct traits, and we consider it essential for you to be aware of these prior to your visit. Our goal is to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience; understanding these differences from your home can contribute to a great stay.
++SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS++
SHARED SPACES: This cottage is part of a shared property. Consequently, the outdoor space and beach are shared with other guests. We anticipate everyone to respect others' enjoyment. Rest assured, the interior of your cottage remains completely private and personal throughout your stay.
BEDDING/TOWELS: Bedding and towels are not included in this rental. Each mattress and the provided pillows are protected with waterproof, zippered covers. Don't forget to pack bed sheets, pillowcases and blankets in addition to bath, beach and hand towels.
DOG-FRIENDLY: Cottage Cove welcomes dogs. Even if you're not traveling with a pet, expect to see dogs in shared areas. Bear this in mind when booking, especially if you have allergies or plan to bring your dog. Dogs must be on 6ft leashes whenever outside the rental (including the beach), and owners must clean up after their pets immediately.
CLEANLINESS: We prioritize offering a clean environment for your vacation. Every appliance, surface, and fixture is thoroughly cleaned between stays. However, there are some points to note.
• We are pet-friendly, so a few stray hairs may evade our cleaning.
• Our spacious, circular driveway is a great playground for kids and provides a smooth walking surface. However, it can lead to oil from the asphalt being tracked into the cottage: especially, when guests walk barefoot from the beach. Despite our diligent cleaning efforts, the asphalt can sometimes leave marks on the cottage floors and bathtubs.
• With the beach comes sand, which we endeavor to remove completely. However, if we miss a few grains, rest assured they've been mopped, sprayed, or wiped clean.
• We make every effort to keep our upholstered furniture and carpets clean. However, due to the nature of rental properties and limited time during our rental season, some stains may not be completely removable. We appreciate your understanding.
• Some appliances might not appear spotless due to exterior rust or old paint jobs. We replace appliances as time and resources permit, and ensure they are cleaned between stays.
• Please note, these points are not meant to excuse substandard cleaning. If you ever feel our cleaning is insufficient, let us know immediately, and we'll rectify the situation.
HOT WATER: This cottage has a smaller water heater than you may be accustomed to at home. Prolonged or extremely hot showers might be challenging, especially in cold weather. Spacing out showers, dishwashing, and other hot water use usually solves the issue. If this poses a concern, consider booking one of our larger cottages with more substantial water heaters.
COASTAL LIVING CHALLENGES: Our vacation rental homes are located on Lake Huron's shore, close to the Huron National Forest. Given our location and the age of our properties, please be aware of the following.
• Ants and other insects may find their way into the cottage, despite regular pest control efforts. You can help by maintaining food cleanliness and immediately cleaning spills/crumbs.
• Rarely, mice may get past our precautions, especially during cooler weather. It's unlikely but worth considering when deciding to book.
• The location's humidity and higher water table might introduce unfamiliar smells. We assure you, however, that these scents don't indicate mold, and your health is our priority. Every rental is regularly inspected. During especially humid periods, you may find a dehumidifier in your rental.
ACCESSIBILITY: Our cottages are not handicap-accessible. Most doorways are narrow, and some spaces may present obstacles for those with mobility issues. Please review all photos to assess suitability before booking.
PROVIDED ITEMS: To simplify your packing, we supply essentials for your trip, but with certain limitations to stay competitive.
• Sanitary Items: Expect roughly 1 roll of paper towel, 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom, hand soap, dish soap and 2 trash bags.
• Kitchenware: We provide dinnerware to accommodate the maximum number of guests, plus basic cookware. e.g. at least 1 saucepan, 1 frypan and simple cooking utensils.

We’ll definitely be coming back." - "Nice, clean, no-frills cottage. Great location." - "So close I could hear the waves, and sunrise was awesome! Lots of friendly people, and dog lovers!" - "Nice to walk right out of my door to the beach and anything I needed access to do. And shopping in cute town less than 20mins in tawas🥰"

++WHAT TO EXPECT++
Each of our vacation rental properties possesses distinctive traits, and we consider it essential for you to be aware of these prior to your visit. Our goal is to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for every guest, and understanding these differences from your home can contribute to that. To assist in making your booking decision more informed, we present some key points for your consideration.
++SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS++
SHARED SPACES: This cottage shares beach access with our next-door property, Cottage Cove. Consequently, the beach is shared with other guests and the possibility of dogs.
CLEANLINESS: We prioritize offering a clean environment for your vacation. Every linen, appliance, surface, and fixture is thoroughly cleaned between stays. However, there are some points to note.
• Our spacious, circular driveway at our next-door property, Cottage Cove, is a great playground for kids and provides a smooth walking surface. However, it can lead to oil being tracked into the cottage from the asphalt, especially when guests walk barefoot from the beach. Despite our diligent cleaning efforts, the asphalt can sometimes leave oil marks on the cottage floors and bathtubs.
• With the beach comes sand, which we endeavor to remove completely. However, if we miss a few grains, rest assured they've been mopped, sprayed, or wiped clean.
• Some appliances might not appear spotless due to exterior rust or old paint jobs. We replace appliances as time and resources permit, and ensure they are cleaned between stays.
• Please note, these points are not meant to excuse substandard cleaning. If you ever feel our cleaning is insufficient, let us know immediately, and we'll rectify the situation.
COASTAL LIVING CHALLENGES: Our vacation rental homes are located on Lake Huron's shore, close to the Huron National Forest. Given our location and the age of our properties, please be aware of the following.
• Ants and other insects may find their way into the cottage, despite regular pest control efforts. You can help by maintaining food cleanliness and immediate cleanup.
• Rarely, mice may get past our precautions, especially during cooler weather. It's unlikely but worth considering when deciding to book.
ACCESSIBILITY: Our cottages are not handicap-accessible. Most doorways are narrow, and some spaces may present obstacles for those with mobility issues. Please review all photos to assess suitability before booking.
PROVIDED ITEMS: To simplify your packing, we supply essentials for your trip, but with certain limitations to stay competitive.
• Sanitary Items: Expect roughly 1 roll of paper towel, 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom, and 2 trash bags.
• Linens/Bedding: We provide each guest with 1 towel and 1 washcloth, based on the cottage's occupancy limit. Each bed is fitted with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, pillows with cases, and a light quilt. In the bathrooms, you'll find 1 floor towel and 1 hand towel. The kitchen is equipped with 1 dishcloth and 1 dish towel. Please note that we do not offer towel exchange services, nor do we provide extra linens beyond what is mentioned here.
• Kitchenware: We provide dinnerware to accommodate the maximum number of guests, plus basic cookware. e.g. at least 1 saucepan, 1 frypan and simple cooking utensils.

- "Great spot steps from the beach. We had one issue and the property manager responded right away and dealt with it. Close to a lot of things." - "I brought my two children up to visit family in the area. We loved how close this was to the beach! My 14 year old son even suggested getting up at 6 to go down and watch the sunrise over the lake (highly recommended). The property was nice, clean, and within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the public beach. We would definitely stay again."
