There was a lot of sand on the floors. Even sand on a dresser in one of the bedrooms. We don’t wear are shoes in anyone’s home. Being barefoot it was very noticeable. There were a few utensils that we pulled out that were dirty. Also noticed some ants in the kitchen. Over all the cottage was very cute and comfortable. The location was very convenient. The park was nice too. We did enjoy our stay.

Home sweet home

We loved our stay at this comfortable and beautifully decorated cottage. We felt at home as soon as we walked in. Everything we needed was provided. The beds were exceptionally comfortable. The only issue we had was that there wasn’t a great view of the lake, yet it was an easy one block walk to the lake and a cute small beach. We’d stay there again, in a heartbeat.

Short getaway

Enjoyed our short stay. House was cozy and the walk to the beach was awesome! At times we were the only people there. It is rocky so make sure to get the $7 water shoes at Walmart!

Perfect vacation

We absolutely loved this property. My 6 year old had the best time. We walked across the street to the park/ beach every day. It's rocky, but I like to look for sea glass so it didn't bother me. Just make sure you have water shoes. The backyard and fire pit area are immaculate and well maintained. The kitchen is spacious, the decor is very beachy and you definitely feel like you're getting away from it all. Loved how the washer and dryer were right there and the house was stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

I want to mention that the hosts were accommodating, the uplifting spirit of the decorations of the beach, and the closeness to the beach and the playground right across the street. I didn't bring any children, but the bunk beds in the children's room seemed perfect. Oh, and the games in the children's room! I haven't played Battleship in forever! The cottage was decorated with a nice beach theme. Even though I picked a rather cool and rainy 5 days there, the town of Lexington offers nice shops and restaurants for a cool rainy day. On a personal note, I had such a pleasant conversation with Kevin as we compared notes regarding his and my recent travels. He was there to add beauty to the grounds which were well tended. I highly recommend this cottage for time in this area.

We really enjoyed our stay. Cottage exceeded our expectations. Very clean and comfortable. Decent view from front porch of the park and lake. Enjoyed a few hours at the beach which is within walking distance. Good location to shopping in Fort Gratiot. Friendly restaurant with great food a few doors down. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Pleasant place to stay

The property exceeded my expectations. The cottage was larger than it appeared in the pictures, and was very clean. The location was near a beautiful park on Lake Huron. Besides the beach, the park had a basketball court, beach volleyball, tennis courts, play area, and picnic pavilions. The property manager responded quickly to my questions, and made us feel very welcome. I plan on returning to the Lakeshore Cottages next year.

Perfect little family spot.

Perfect size for us and our 2 boys. Plenty of common green space in the back for them to run around and for us to enjoy a bonfire. And the beach across the street is what it's all about.
