With a fire pit, a bountiful garden and lots of sand, this charming cabin is the perfect place for a large family holiday or a group trip to the beach. Our cabin faces the garden, but it is just a few steps around the back for direct access to our private beach which you’ll share with the guests in the Lake Side Cabin. Don’t worry, there’s plenty of sand for everyone! A charcoal grill awaits your brats or steaks or whatever was on sale at Walt’s Meat Market across the street. This can be a quiet romantic getaway for long walks on the beach, or an exciting family splash fest with fire roasted hot dogs and scorched marshmallows. We ask our guests to leave the cabin as they found it. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet - Available in the cabin: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Service animals only (pets not allowed) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70580000/70573500/70573484/a196714e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SandyCabins Duplex Beach House - Lake Side Cabin Port Austin - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.6 Exceptional 48 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-21&selected=70573484&PinnedHotelID=70573484&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107620000/107612700/107612654/2758ee8d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### HOT TUB, beach access, 2-bdrm cottage just outside Port Austin with AC & WiFi #1 Port Austin - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Air conditioning 9.2 Wonderful 18 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-20&endDate=2025-12-21&selected=107612654&PinnedHotelID=107612654&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70100000/70099700/70099643/180-7e96a733.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### UPPER 3 rm. studio B&B steps from beach & farm markt/shop'g.; dogs ok w/fee.

It was renovated on the inside and clean. The downstairs stayed nice and cool though the upstairs got a little hot on the day temps were in the 90s. We would definitely stay here again. It is right behind the dune on a sandy beach with great water for swimming, paddle boarding, etc. It is located along a shallow section of Lake Huron so the water was much warmer than we expected (we were there in June). We were close enough to Caseville and Port Austin to go get lunch, ice cream, or groceries whenever we felt like it. The hosts were easy to communicate with and there is a washer/dryer on the ground floor. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe P. 4 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place Other than no view of the water... prefect place ##### Joe P.
