Convenient Stay!

Great location! Cottage was clean, organized and welcoming! It was very humid and the fridge was leaking which was a little unconventional, but we persisted! We had lots of fun exploring the near by shops and amenities. The hosts were very kind and had great communication. I would highly recommend this place!

Wipp inn over the lake

Nice getaway

Weather wasn’t fun the first two days but that didn’t diminish the stay one bit! Views for days and fishing off the lower deck. Too bad the water was so rough. The breeze through this cabin was perfect as it warmed up the last two days here. Just a note park behind cabin 7 if you are staying in that cabin parking is tight and right in front of cabin 7. Thank you for anniversary memories!!!

A weekend getaway

Pros: great location, just north of Lexington and sound of Sanilac. There are 7 cabins and everyone was friendly. Although no beach access (you look down over the lake), there is a viewing area with chairs, etc. The owners are attentive before, during and after our stay. It is priced very reasonably. Cons: There were carpenter ants in the cabin. Two were in our bed, and it creeped me out. Apparently, they spray on a regular basis, however, when we were there, they had just sprayed outside, possibly that made the ants come inside. Our cabin, number 7, was exceedingly small. There was barely two inches between the toilet and wall. It is advertised for sleeping 4, but there are only two chairs at the bistro-type kitchen table because nothing more could fit. Overall, we had a great time going to the beach and Lexington. We spoke with our neighbors and they seemed very content with their stay. I have mentioned things here that I would want to know before making a reservation.

Road noise

Our cabin was very close to the main road. We didn’t like the constant noise. Also, the stairs down to the water were challenging. We decided to go to another beach to have a beach day.

Lovely view from the deck

Cozy cabin on Lake Huron. Check in/out was easy and the place was clean. I wished it wasn’t so close to the main road but that’s unavoidable in the area if you want to be on the water.

Cute Get Away

Very cute little cottages. Nicely kept. Was able to take out 2 Labradors. Was disappointed when the there wasn't a beach for the dogs to go down to and get in and swim, but the owner was great at finding out places for us to take them.

Peaceful Stay at the Wipp Inn

It was a nice overdue get away with my family. Spent a day at Lakeport State Park swimming and rock-hounding. The Wipp Inn property has wonderful morning views of Lake Huron that pair marvelously with a cup of coffee. The Barn Swallows will dazzle you in the am with their unique, acrobatic, circular, aerial flocking pattern and live in the sand nests right next to the lower deck on adjacent property. The steps could be tricky for an elderly person but I personally didn't mind the butt and leg work out. The property does shade quickly by mid day so the am was a great time for solace and watching barges, sailboats go by. The Garden cottage is older and does have some quirky electrical issues that I figured out fairly quickly as running the space heater on certain outlets trip the breaker and cause electricity to go out. If I was cooking bacon it was best to take fire alarm down and open the windows or it would go off. I am sure they probably at some point need electrical re-worked but the owners were great and had it all back up and running fairly quickly. The owner was nice and gave us some restaurant suggestions and let us check out late. The Windjammer at the marina ran out of food by 6pm and closed early ( I don't think they expected a big crowd for Memorial Day weekend ) Cadillac House Inn had 2 hour wait so we just hit the local tavern in town that had live music which suited us just fine. Rode my bike in AM down Townsend road and found small airport.
