The house was absolutely gorgeous and immaculate. Loved the location as it was very private and peaceful. Thoroughly enjoyed walking the beach and sifting through the rocks. We met Sergey, who was so kind, generous and eager to help in any way possible. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

We had a lovely time. We enjoyed combing the beach for unique rocks and drift wood. The cabin was the perfect size and layout for our family, and close to the shoreline.

Serene Beauty

Marina and Sergey’s beach-front cabin is a beauty. The location is serene - far enough away from town for stillness and relaxation, yet close enough to amenities and activities. The cabin is newly built, open and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.

Petoskey stone heaven, just grab a couple for a souvenir. Strong internet, owner friendly and helpful. There’s a few condiments, ice cream, etc in frig. He encourages you to use it! Good mattress , great bath towels. Back up generator kicked on for a few minutes while while we were there. Water filter at the sink, kayak and canoe. It gave my spouse some peace from unavoidable changes at work to be there. Also, there are curtains in bedrooms and bathroom, I couldn’t be sure from the photos. You’ll love it.

This cabin rental is gorgeous, clean and in such a beautiful, peaceful setting along Thunder Bay in Lake Huron. We loved our stay here and just wish it could’ve lasted longer. Sergey was a most welcoming and helpful host. We really appreciate the owners opening up their home for us to enjoy a truly relaxing time. It’s a beautiful piece of Heaven here on earth.

Great Stay!

We had a wonderful week at Marina’s Lake Cabin! The house was lovely, clean and comfortable. It was a good home base for our treks to area hiking trails and lighthouses. We enjoyed the kayak, fire pit, and collecting rocks on beach. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Enjoyed much time on the porch and walking the bay. We went rock collecting for unique rocks to add to rock garden at home. The home was relaxing and comfortable. My husband does use a walker at times. The open concept accommodated his walker.

Tranquility

We had a lovely time at Marina’s cabin. Everything we needed was available and the cabin was beautiful. The beach was clean, the water was clear. Sergey provided excellent directions and suggested a few places we could visit close by. We were visited by some deer, saw a pileated woodpecker, and a few song birds. It was just what we needed to relax and unwind. Thank you for sharing this special place!

Perfect Getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at Marina’s cabin. It is a lovely, comfortable home right on Lake Huron with all you need to simply relax and enjoy life. There is much to do and see in the area but we mainly stayed “home” and soaked in the beauty of the beach and Lake Huron. Beautiful sunsets, the Milky Way at night and we even got to see the Northern Lights. Also, it is rockhound’s dream location! Sergey is a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. We have stayed at many, many VRBO homes over the years and this one is at the top. We do plan to return!!!

Beautiful cottage, relaxing stay

We stayed in this cottage for seven nights and absolutely enjoyed it. The cottage was cozy and very clean. We had basically everything we needed for our stay. The beach is steps away. The whole area is peaceful and quiet. A morning coffee on the porch with the water view, and night soothing wave music was so comforting and relaxing. The town is just 15-20 minutes away, if you want to try some restaurants or get a little more supplies for your stay. Sergay and Marina were great hosts. They were friendly and helpful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us, we had a wonderful stay!

Peaceful

We had a wonderful stay at Marina’s Lake House with our children and dogs! As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by Sergey (who was working/staying on property in a separate building). He welcomed us and gave us some helpful pointers about the beach and the surrounding area. The lake and beach were beautiful and the kids and dogs loved the water, going for walks, and looking for rocks. This was a rockhounders paradise!! The house is well out of town and surrounded by incredible nature every where you turn. There were lots of nature preserves, parks, and hikes nearby and we loved exploring them as well. In town we played putt putt golf at Lee’s, visited the local museums, and enjoyed Mexican food and ice cream! It was the most relaxing, peaceful vacation we’ve been on in a long time. We saw beautiful sunrises and sunsets and our last night there, and incredible northern lights show! We are already talking about a return trip in the future. Thank you to Sergey and Marina for sharing your beautiful home with our family!
