George is excellent at communicating , quick response! Love the location, very private, plenty of space in the house for just two of us and dogs ! Back yard can use some attention. It was fine with us since we spent most of the time by the beach. Dogs had a blast swimming in the lake !!

Lake Huron in the background was beautiful. The steps leading down to the rock beach was old, shaky, and overgrown with plants. The bathroom inside the house was the smallest I have ever seen. The toilet paper holder was dangling off one of the cabinet handles which was almost touching your knees. We had 6 adults and 4 kids under 10. We alternated the shower. On a good note, the air conditioner worked, the kitchen sink worked with a small leak running, the refrigerator and dryer also worked, but the washing machine drained on the laundry room floor when the shower was being used. We rent a house once a year and this house in poor condition , but our family spent time together watching and swimming in Lake Huron. We made the best of it.

Our dates were July 15-19Clean home, nice location, very communicative host who seemed genuinely interested in our arrival and safety. Everything you need available. Only suggestion would be to lighten up interior, fix up steps to beach, have less brush around to obstruct view. Outdoor lights didn’t work on back fence . We may return but we sure didn’t need that many beds with just us two. We booked last minute and were so happy to have direct view ,and location on the lake for our dates. Great place with even greater potential.

Fall Getaway
Residence is exactly as described and expected. We throughly enjoyed our stay. The weather was warmer than normal and we were able to spend a few days relaxing outside enjoying the lake views. It is a quick drive to town for groceries, restaurants and bars. Highly recommended George’s place for your next family trip!

Water view is awesome. Beautiful sunrises
We had a good time and enjoyed our weekend. Sitting outside and enjoying the water view was great. We were lucky and had great weather for October
Clean, but we felt inside could use some updating.
Communications with George went well.
We had a great time at the property. Its a nice, secluded and cozy place with dedicated beach access. The backyard and lake view was amazing. The sunrise view from the backyard was wonderful. The kitchen is equipped with basic needed amenities such as pots, pans, cutlery etc., no dishwasher though. The backyard has both charcoal and gas grill and there is a firepit as well for a nice chill & grill time.
The stairs needs to be fixed up but for the time being it does the job. Also I felt there should be more lighting in the backyard for late evening hangouts.

Lake cabin
Its tucked away and has beautiful views. Its like grand-dads cabin. Enjoyed how close it is to a bunch of small towns. The stairs down to the beach is a bit sketchy, but its worth it when you down there. The host was quick to respond and help with any requests asked of him. I wouldnt mind going back soon.

Weekend getaway
The cottage was as described, George’s communication was excellent. The views were great and the cottage was clean. The only issue was we couldn’t use the shower, there was no hot water, kind of a big deal. We weren’t offered a discount because of it which was disappointing and we were told no one was available to fix it until after our stay.

George’s cabin is wonderful. The view is amazing and having your own private beach is a huge bonus. The cabin is extremely clean and well maintained, spacious and has everything you need. Stairs to the water are a little worn but had no problem getting down to the beach. Just have to be careful. Highly recommend this property.

Carsonville weekend on Lake Huron
This is the 2nd time we’ve been here. We like it because it’s private, quiet except when the waves and wind get crazy which is pretty cool to experience. Our dog loves it. It’s simple, relaxing and reasonably priced for a property backing right up the the lake! We’ll be back again.
