Tawas Getaway-Perfect Location for Scenic Fall Color tours & Hiking Trails!

Super cozy, modern ranch home located just 2 blocks from beautiful Tawas Bay & a short 5-minute walk to the charming downtown shopping area with restaurants, shopping, movie theater and ice cream shops!

This is the perfect landing spot for a fall color tour of northern Michigan. The Ausable River has beautiful views whether you are an avid hiker or just love to stroll around and take in the beauty! Take a hike through Silver Valley and Corsair Trails for the ultimate tour through the woods. All located within 15 minutes away.

The backyard has a propane grill for your local finds from the downtown market, and a large fire pit to enjoy smores and sharing stories of the day's adventures, while watching the stars.
(You may see shooting stars!)

Outdoor patio lights hover over the chaise lounge and sofa area, making it the perfect place for end of day relaxation, and also a serene spot for a good book and a coffee in the morning.

When the snow begins to fall, the backyard firepit is a perfect place to warm up with some hot cocoa after a day of ice fishing/sledding/cross-country skiing or catching up on the snowmobiling excursions through the hundreds of miles of accessible state land!

The primary bedroom has a comfortable Serta pillowtop mattress, room darkening blind, a Roku tv and radiant heated tile flooring for those cooler nights.

The second bedroom has a full size luxury memory foam mattress, room darkening blinds, and a 32" smart tv.

The third bedroom is fun for kids, and adults alike, with two plush pillow top twin mattresses, a room darkening blind, Roku tv, and a built-in nightlight. There are some toys in the closet and games in the cabinet.

Whether you are looking for some much-needed time away to step back and do a reset, a girls' weekend of shopping and dining out, family getaways, or a landing spot for the beautiful fall color tour Iosco County has to offer, this home has been equipped and prepared especially for you!

State land trail access:

East Tawas / Iosco County: ~94 miles of designated and groomed trails.
Oscoda area / Huron National Forest region: ~267 miles of snowmobile trails in the Huron Zone.

Comfy and great location!

This house was so comfy and cozy, especially compared to the hotel my friends were at. The owner really thought of everything. It's in a great location near the beach and near downtown. We'd definitely stay again!

Girls Trip - East Tawas!

This is my second time staying here and I hope to continue to stay here time and time again! We had the best girls weekend and everyone loved the home! It's conveniently located for a nice walk downtown and to our friends family cottages! I highly recommend staying here, you won't regret it!

Girl’s weekend

A nice updated home 8 blocks to shopping and restaurants. Close distance to a beautiful park and Lake Huron. We loved the secluded back yard where we sat outside and enjoyed catching up. The home is well stocked with anything you need. The bonus was each of us had our own bed. The main bathroom has a deep tub that is challenging to get into without any grab bars, but it was a good shower. The smaller bathroom has a walk-in shower with a rain shower head that was awesome. We would stay there again.

Cozy Place for a Getaway

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this home. All newly renovated with two bathrooms. Enjoyed taking walks in the neighborhood and around town. Would not hesitate to rebook here. Had a few light bulbs out and couldn't find any replacements. Coffee pot did not work but Keurig pod side was fine. Floor is cold at night. A few extra area rugs in master would be nice with an extra thicker comforter. Love the Himalayan salt lamp in master bedroom for a nice, relaxed vibe. Nice back yard area. Slight trip hazard from kitchen to hallway. We were very pleased with rental.
