About this property

Summer 2024 available dates: June 28 - July 1

Enjoy the beauty of Lake Huron with 95 feet of wide, sandy beach and lakefront. We have Sandy bottom water with shallow entry and a sandbar - perfect for families! This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house with a loft is down a secluded, dead end private street - no loud noise from US23! Master bathroom fully remodeled in 2024. We are close to area shopping, golf and restaurants. Fantastic deck for enjoying the views and everything you need to enjoy the beach available for your use - chairs, towels, sand toys. An outdoor shower to wash away the day's sand and a fenced in back yard for added privacy. Beautiful new modern kitchen, fully equipped, and gas BBQ allow you to cook your own meals if you choose. The perfect end to a day spent splashing in the waves is making s'mores over the beach fire pit, or relaxing in the sauna. Amazing lake views from the kitchen, dining, sitting room, 1st bedroom, 4th bedroom and loft.

Located directly between downtownTawas and Oscoda means access to all kinds of summer fun with festivals, movies/music in the park, cute shops, great restaurants, lighthouses, putt putt and renowned golf courses. Located near the AuSable River with opportunities for kayaking, canoeing and tubing. There are also amazing views of the fall colors with state land right across the street. Long driveway with plenty of parking and a basketball hoop for fun. TVs are equipped with streaming capabilities so you can login to your own accounts on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. Bike trails, hiking trails, sun and sand make Barefoot Bungalow the perfect destination to enjoy Pure Michigan. Come experience the sunrise side at its finest!

Like many up north cottages, we do not have air conditioning. However, we have an awesome breeze off the lake, 4 sliding doors that allow in lots of air, and ceiling fans in almost every room! Sleeping with the windows open allows you to be lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves!

4 Years and Still Fabulous

Stayed in July-Aug of 2023. We have been renting this property every year for the last 4 years and we also booked our 5th year for next summer. We have found that the owners are super easy to work with and are very attentive to all needs. They have continually made improvements to the house through the years and while it was beautiful from the get go, the improvements are also so appreciated. The beach here cannot be beat. We can't get enough of it. And we love Tawas and Oscosa. Tawas especially is the cutest town and our kids never stop talking about going to Benjamin Franklin for souvenirs and toys. Love it here, thanks again!

Perfect for family vacation!

Our family of 6 adults, a young child, and 2 babies were extremely happy and comfortable in this spacious, well appointed home. Cleanliness was excellent, and the homeowner has provided a well equipped kitchen. We loved the Lake Huron views, especially at dawn. Many happy hours were spent on the clean, private sandy beach, and it’s shallow for a long way out, so perfect for kids. The photos are accurate ! Not an exaggeration! It’s a perfect place for a family vacation 😊

Beach House

That’s what our family calls this beautiful property. We’ve lost track of the number of years we have stayed here. We try to take care of the house and enjoy all that the property has to offer.
