The Garbage can was full when we arrived. There was an objectionable fragrance device plugged into the wall. I wasn’t sure if the sheets were clean.

This was a great place to stay in downtown Tawas. Easy walking distance to town, but we were going to the state park everyday.

Quick getaway
The location and amenities were amazing. It was a quiet neighborhood. The house was comfortable and quaint. It was a little musty smelling though, which caused some issues with allergies, but overall good place to stay. Owners were amazing at communicating with me.

Perfect with a deep cleaning
We were 4 adults all in our 70 and 80’s. Love the location, like the layout, owner was very helpful and friendly. However was greatly disappointed in the sofa’s needed to be replaced, the throw rugs on the floor to cover the dirty carpet, the soft mattress in the bedroom to the right of the bathroom, the dirty back deck and furniture not able to use and messiness of the cupboards in kitchen.would not return unless these things are taken care of. Felt high priced for the dirtyness and uncomfortable furniture. Thanks, Karen Davis

Fabulous stay!
Wonderful and cozy lodging! Our girl's trip was a blast in East Tawas and our lodging was perfect. Close to downtown, clean and cozy, pull-out couch was comfortable(I slept on it myself). Lots of hot water and water pressure was great. We will rent again for sure :)

Exactly as posted. A feel of up north in tawas
Stay was great. My only suggestion is your check in says recycling bin available and we only seen big trash bin outside so we took the recycling with us when we left. Unless you meant the little recycling bins in the house but we didn’t want to leave it in the house when we left
