The house is clean however we did find mouse droppings at the bottom level of one cupboard. All in all We would stay at this property again. Thank you

Tranquil stay "home" away from home
Cottage provided everything we needed for the duration of our stay. Great location; quiet neighborhood and relaxing feel of home. Close to lake, beach, restaurants and shopping. Communication with host was excellent Would consider staying at the cottage again.

Clean, cozy, and accomodating
This is our second stay here at James' cottage. We had a great stay. The house is well maintained and only had a minor issue with the roof. We really loved the proximity to the lake. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are very friendly. The kitchen is nicely organized and stocked. The bedrooms were comfortable and the laundry room is great to have for a vacation. There is a lot around if you need a store or park. We'll be back!

Had fun
The house was very nice. We really enjoyed our stay. I had trouble with figuring out the TV system with my computer and the sound system, but that is mainly my own fault. I am technically challenged. The internet was very fast, we loved the layout of the house. Very cozy. I have a son with autism and usually has a hard time transitioning to new situations but being at this lovely house he transitioned pretty quickly to our vacation. It was very nice to be able to take our dogs on vacation with us.We would definitely stay there again.

Great Weekend Getaway
I just got back from a weekend with my wife and our best friends and we loved the place. It's about 15 minutes south of Lexington and 20 minutes north of Port Huron, but it's super easy to get to either city. They have a ton of extra silverware, spices, etc. in their cupboards that will satisfy most of your needs. The fire pit on the side of the house was very nice for some late night drinks and smores. I had a few questions and James was always quick to respond and even suggested a few things to do. If you like wine, good views, or just relaxing, you need to go to 3 North Vines Winery in Lexington. Such a cool place! There are also a few local bars near the house that are pretty fun. The only thing I was disappointed in were the bikes. My wife and I wanted to ride them in the park and one bike had the seat broken and it was basically set up for a 6'5 person, another bike wasn't broken but wasn't suited for a normal sized person (I'm 5'10). and the third one was a low rider. However, this did not take away anything from our weekend. Overall great place that I'd recommend to others and hope to stay at again in the future!

Cute, clean, Cottage by the Lake
We enjoyed staying in this home over the Christmas Holidays. It is a cozy cottage and is kept clean. We enjoyed walking through Lakeport State Park every morning, which is right next to the property.

The property is spacious and clean
We rented this property to attend our daughters wedding reception. This house was perfect for the weekend. We were able to bring our family pets as well as grandson with us. It was nice to be able to run back and forth from wedding activities to walk and feed them. The neighborhood was nice and quiet & and the neighbors we did meet were very friendly. I would recommend this home :) Roxie

A cute cottage style home
My sister and I wanted to go on a "girly get away" by the water. This lovely blue cottage style home was lovely, and decorated with rich woodwork, and very spacious. We had plenty of room and many amenities. Lake Huron is a beautiful lake and the drive up to Port Sanilac and Harbor Beach was wonderful. The owner was very thoughtful and helpful - - - for this was my first experience with VRBO. This place fit the bill for my sister and I and we had a wonderful time.

Memorable Holiday Weekend July 2016
I found this property by chance and my family (husband, 3 adult children) and I were not disappointed. The house is beautiful, clean, comfortable. The beach is a short, scenic walk away. Everyone we met (neighbors and other residents) were warm and welcoming. The owner friendly and responsive with any questions we had. We attended the fireworks in Lexington watching them with local merchants who invited us to sit by their shop. We had a fire at night on the patio, laughed, told stories, ate s'mores and star gazed. We hope to come back again and stay even longer. THANK YOU! cm

Suprisingly spacious!!
The property is well kept and clean. My family of six adults and two toddlers enjoyed our weekend stay. The pictures are deceptive because the house is more spacious than they show. There was plenty of room for all of us. We never felt crowded or cramped. We were able to all sit at the dinning room table for our meals and with three bedrooms, no one had to sleep on the couch. One small issue, though I'm sure it's no different for any home in that area, there were quite a few small ants in and around the kitchen sink. No leaving anything out on the counter unsealed, that's for sure. If you can tolerate that, then this is a great and affordable cottage with an 'upnorth' feel that's not to far away. Oh, and the owner is great!!
