Summary:
Welcome to Barefoot Beach Resort, a laid-back spot on the best beach of Lake Huron. Cabin 8 is one of our only one-bedroom cabins—but with a spacious kitchen and living area, it definitely doesn’t feel small. The front patio and screen door open up to a clear view of the lake, just a short stroll from the beach.
Inside, you’ll find a comfy queen bed and a new pullout couch, plus a unique bathroom setup that’s somehow still makes sense. It’s a great fit for couples or a small family who want to kick back, cook a few meals, and enjoy the beach without overthinking it.
The Space:
☀ One bedroom with a queen bed + pullout couch (sleeps 4)
☀ One bathroom—separate toilet room + shower in a (non-working) jacuzzi tub
☀ Full kitchen with plenty of counter space + a 4-person dining table
☀ Living room with Roku TV (if you feel like turning it on)
☀ Charcoal grill, picnic table, patio chairs, and some beach toys
☀ Shared fire pits literally on the beach
☀ High-speed Wi-Fi (good enough for Zoom, if you must)
☀ Easy self-check-in, no keys or hassle
☀ Starter Kit: Coffee, paper towels, soap, trash bags, toilet paper, charcoal, lighter fluid, etc. (restock as needed)
☆☆ A little more space to stretch out ☆☆
For a one-bedroom, Cabin 8 is surprisingly roomy. The living area and kitchen are bigger than you’d expect, which makes it a nice option if you’re staying longer or just want to spread out a bit.
☆☆ Close to the lake, with a clear view of the water ☆☆
While it’s a couple cabins back from the beachfront, the screen door and patio open up to a direct view of Lake Huron. You’re still only steps from the sand.
☆☆ Grilling, s’mores, and bonfires on the beach ☆☆
Bring the marshmallows. The shared fire pits are right on the lake, and there’s nothing better than ending your day watching the fire crackle and waves roll in.
☆☆ Great for families, couples, or fishing trips ☆☆
Whether you're trying to get the kids sandy and tired, spend a weekend unplugged with your partner, or sneak in one last cast before sunset, this place works.
