Note: Additional steps are taken to ensure the safety and health of our guests and mitigate the spread of C19 or any other virus: 1\. Additional cleaning and sanitizing by disinfecting the cottage with professional, hospital-grade cleaners that are specified by the CDC/EPA. 2\. Extra time on disinfecting all doorknobs, light switches, remote controls, etc. as recommended by the CDC. 3\. Access to additional paper goods (plates, napkins, toilet paper, paper towels, etc.) as well as disposable silverware, cutting boards & disinfecting supplies. At the end of a row of 5 cottages, along a private street, sits a 1935 cottage, Sandy Feet, that embraces 21rst century living without letting go of its beloved past. This quaint & timeless \*air-conditioned\* cottage sleeps 7 - 8 comfortably in three bedrooms (Primary bedroom with new king mattress & adjustable frame, 'Beach Room' with 2 XL twin beds & pullout twin trundle, & 'Bunk Room' with 2 twin bunks & antique Ranch Hand's bed). All three bedrooms plus the living room have a ‘smart TV’ for streaming (no cable or network TV). Sandy Feet's daily & weekly prices are completely \*inclusive\* of cleaning fees and taxes. All the basic amenities for guests (paper goods, soaps, spices/condiments & coffee/tea/hot chocolate) are included - even oatmeal for breakfast and cookies warm from the oven!! Nightly and weekly rates (as well as minimum stay) vary depending upon the season. Check the calendar for the rate on your requested dates. There is an additional charge for more than 5 guests, including family/friends who arrive/sleep after your arrival date. Relax at Sandy Feet in a living room with leather couch, large screen TV (Netflix, Hulu, etc.), board games & puzzles, a full kitchen, dining room, bathroom with shower, and sunroom/enclosed porch (with a small view of the lake). Located across the street from Lake Huron, a giant deck wraps around two sides of the house with gas grill, umbrella table, chairs, and loungers. The huge yard, great for badminton & croquet, also has a fire pit for evening bonfires. There's a garage with a ping pong table & all the beach toys & games imaginable for the young and young-at-heart. Grab your lightweight wagon with beach chairs, towels and cooler (provided) and head down the block to the paved path to the beach where you can gaze over miles of open water, with it's ever-changing waves & sand. And there's no better place on earth to sip a cup of morning coffee and watch the sun rise. Sandy Feet Cottage is in a superb location in Fort Gratiot Township on the 'north end,' only 1 mile from the mall and all of the major superstores and restaurants (both local-owned favorites & all the chains) - and less than 5 min. to Starbucks, Barnes & Noble Books, and Krafft 8 Movie Theater. You're in downtown Port Huron in 10 minutes, with all of the great shops, restaurants, farmer's market, River Walk, marinas and more. The picturesque vacation village of Lexington, with their great summer music series, quaint shops, fun beach and long pier walk is only 15 - 20 minutes to the north of Sandy Feet. And for those visitors not from SE Michigan, it's no more than 60 minutes to Tiger Stadium and the Fox Theater in downtown Detroit to catch a ballgame or professional theater. With this quick and easy access, unusual for most cottage experiences, there is some road noise from nearby Lakeshore Road. This is the only access up the 'thumb' of Michigan, so guests hear traffic noise when on the deck or lawn, or windows are open. This charming cottage has vintage furniture in the sunroom, local antique postcards on the walls, a very unusual antique 'ranch hand's' bed, mission rocker, and other retro touches. But there also are four 'smart' TVs (49' in lvg rm) with many free streaming apps (Apple TV+, Disney+, Hulu, Amazon Prime), a recently-remodeled kitchen with microwave and all needed small & large appliances, a Bluetooth music system (streams music from apps like Pandora or Spotify or play your own stored tunes in your smart phone), washer & dryer (supplies provided), and high speed internet augmented with an additional router to be sure there is plenty of strong Wi-Fi access for all of your devices. We want you to be able to relax on your vacation, so in addition to linens & towels (both bath & beach), all paper goods, shampoo, soap, spices, coffee, tea & hot chocolate are provided. There's even extra sunscreen, bug spray, toothpaste, & deodorant if needed! Cozy throws & blankets are located throughout the cottage, but a new gas forced-air furnace will make Sandy Feet toasty in an instant. And for those 'dog days' when fans & the lake breeze are not enough, there's central air conditioning. Vintage, yes, but re-imagined for the 21rst century. In the spring of 1919, Harry S Truman returned from duty in World War I & married Elizabeth 'Bess' Wallace. The couple spent part of their honeymoon at the Harrington Hotel in Port Huron, MI. Their daughter, Margaret, wrote in her biography of Bess, 'For the rest of his life, whenever Harry Truman wanted to regain the radiance of those first days with Bess, he simply wrote 'Port Huron.' For him it was a code word for happiness.' It's our code word for happiness too, and it will be yours as well as you discover the Blue Water region. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet -

The property is tucked away in a very nice and quiet neighborhood, just steps away from Lake Huron. Once you step inside, you will feel right at home. Everything you need to take the stress out of your stay is provided. We were able to sit out on the large deck and watch the sun rise in the morning and set in the evening. We found the games and Ping Pong table to be a great way to relax after a long day exploring the area. We had such a great time and will definitely be booking this property again. ##### Adam L.

Stocked with everything we need. Just like being at home but off Lake Huron. Ms. Darlene is always kind and available for any questions or concerns. Love that place and all my summer neighbors. Looking forward to 2024! Marvin ##### Marvin D.

Yes, we decided to come to the warm state of Michigan for our Spring Break. Actually, the true reason was to come visit my husband’s elderly mother. This home was in the perfect location. It was clean, stocked with all necessary items, and had a nice view of Lake Huron. Restaurants, grocery stores and shopping are all within a 5 minute drive. Darlene was a wonderful host. The weather wasn’t too bad (not having any snow was a win), but we will perhaps rent again when we return in the summer. ##### Kim S.

It was clean and cozy, and Darlene was the most hospitable host EVER. So many thoughtful touches- plenty of linens, cookie dough and cinnamon rolls, tons of board games, and so much more. The beds were comfortable, the Smart TVs were appreciated as it was cold and rainy in evenings when we were there. The beach was just steps away and since my friends and I specifically came to PH/FG to look for rocks, we were pleased to find it it was rocky. It was lovely being able to sit in the sunroom in the morning and see the Lake. My friends loved having the ping pong table available. It was all such a lovely, pleasant stay, and I hope to visit again!! ##### Erin W. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica M. 1 Jun 2015 #### Absolutely amazing!! I can't even fully express in words of how amazing it was staying in Darlene's cottage. From the outside it looks really small and once you walk in, you are instantly blown away! The cottage was very clean and picture perfect with the nautical theme of the cottage. There was a lot of light coming through the windows and an amazing view overlooking the lake from the patio. My girlfriends and I had a great time spending the weekend with each other in this cozy cottage. We were all impressed with what was provided and the charm this place had. One thing that really impressed me is the kindness coming from Darlene. She wanted to make sure my stay was pleasant and even went out of her way to give me info about the area. So when I left I wanted to make sure it was just as clean as I arrived. My parents stopped by and even they would like to stay there. If you are looking for a place to have a romantic getaway or just a weekend with the friends, this is the place! ##### Jessica M. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Walt P. 1 Sept 2015 #### A Perfect Getaway Sandy Feet Cottage is truly a home away from home. I needed some time away from a very busy schedule and stayed at Sandy Feet on Lake Huron for 4 days - although I wish it could have been longer. It was a fully relaxing and completely carefree vacation for me. Host, Darlene and family, have set up Sandy Feet with your every comfort in mind. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and preparing meals at the cottage, but there are plenty of places to eat nearby if you'd prefer to not cook. And there so many choices at the cottage for where to enjoy your meal - at the counter facing the kitchen, in the dining room area, or out on the expansive deck. All the rooms are well decorated with that perfect vintage "beachy" feel and the bed I slept in was extremely comfortable. The bathroom even included shampoo and body wash if you happen to forget your own. An entire notebook is available for guests looking for places to visit and things to do, as well as instructions for every appliance at the cottage, just in case you are unfamiliar with how to use the coffee maker or turn on the TV. Seriously, you don't have to think or worry about a thing! I fully enjoyed beach-sitting, deck-sitting and comfy-couch-sitting during my stay. I did manage to motivate myself to do a little antique shopping and just wandering around the area. Everything Antiques in Port Huron was great, but I found better prices, offerings, and great deals in some of the "out of the way" antique shops north of Port Gratiot. I enjoyed downtown Port Huron, the local lighthouse, and traveling one day for several hours up the coast. Highlight: the Exquisite Corpse Coffeehouse in Port Huron was a morning necessity, although I found The Raven Coffeehouse, just down the block, equally as nice. I will definitely stay at Sandy Feet Cottage again. Walt ##### Walt P.

We have stayed in many Vrbo rental properties and Darlene is the best host we have had so far. Communication with her is great! She also had a freezer packed with goodies to enjoy. It was amazing!! Thank you so much. We highly recommend this place. The location was perfect. Just a short walk from the beach. ##### Alisha W.

The host thought of everything we might heed during our stay. The unique sailboat themed antiques added to the ambience. This was our second time staying there and hopefully we will get to relax at Sandy Feet again in the future. ##### Mark M.

This was the perfect place for my family as an overflow from my mom and dad’s beach house. It was a great place to return to at the end of our busy family get together’s. The cottage was very cozy and well kept. We will definitely hope for this to be available for future stays. Darlene was a great host extremely friendly and communicated everything perfectly! ##### Carol H. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ---
