Local Environment: This Cottage Home is located on the Huron River in Huron Ohio. You may hear birds, motorized water vehicles, other people, route 2 bridge that is 1200 feet away, There is a railroad system that through the North Coast of Ohio. It runs through The City of Huron (no matter where you stay in Huron/North Coast you may hear the trains)- our cottage is further from the tracks than most Huron rentals, but you may hear trains (1.125 miles away)- my guests say they didn't even notice any train sounds. This cottage house has updated double pane windows and new doors and is very cushioned from sound. We are surrounded by lots of spectacular wildlife & many Canadian geese in the yards and on the roads so enjoy the nature filled surroundings, drive slow and check your shoes often;-)
