We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is small but has all the essentials for a quaint stay on the beach. The views are spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit. Falling asleep to the waves was therapeutic and those sunrises were amazing!

Lazy Days at the Lazy Fish

Not only are the owners nice but the guests are too! The Lazy Fish has the most stunning, pristine peaceful beach I've ever strolled on. The location is a true gem as are the folks, too. We enjoyed our stay so much we are going to come back again next summer. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This was a perfect little spot for my kids and I! It was so nice not having to pack up and go anywhere we had everything we needed right there. Hearing the sounds of the waves with the windows open was so relaxing, all the neighbors were wonderful as well! I will definitely be coming back!

We were so amazed at how close our door was to the beach. The views from our room were amazing. The weather could have been better(it was beautiful the day we left!) but we enjoyed every moment we had there. Will definitely go back.

Absolutely perfect!

The perfect place to get away. Everything we needed was provided. Step outside your door right to the beach. I was very happy with my stay. I will be returning next year with my whole family. This will definitely be a place we visit often in the future.

Beauty! Peace! Beach! Waves!

It was all here, and so perfect! It was the exact right spot I had hoped for. The feeling of beach front simplicity and the sound of all those waves. The little cabin had all that was needed including a lovely fire pit just ready for a match. I enjoyed every moment!

Beauty of Lake Huron

Quaint small cabin located on the shore of Lake Huron. Perfect place to downshift from the hectic pace of worn and the city. We had a wonderful time on the beach and enjoying the many state parks, lighthouses and National Forest! Plenty of activities to take part in or just relax on the lakeside - this place has everything. (Except traffic!! Which makes it all the better!)

Hi there: Everything was as expected, the view and the beach were spectacular. Other guests very friendly. Your cleaners were super nice and while cleaning another unit made sure to ask if I was all set. Wifi and TV were great, I appreciated that! I have a couple of recommendations - You need a plug in the bathroom Hooks on either side of the shower would be great as well for hanging towels or wet bathing suits I certainly have no issues with doing my own dishes but you need dish towels in the kitchen My strongest recommendation though, is blinds for the windows, the curtains were very thin and see through at night with lights on inside, traveling alone I did not feel comfortable in the unit with the lights on at night especially with folks walking back and forth on the deck and also for the window over the bed facing the road. But with that said, I'd come back again! Thanks Deb

I loved the location of this property. Right on the beach. Beautiful view. The accommodations were a bit rough. Flies (lots) to deal with on entering the tiny bungalow. Thin walls so every sound was amplified. Only a bed (comfy) and sofa (that needs to be replaced - I wouldn’t sit on it). No place to relax inside. The kitchen and bathroom were fine and the shower was awesome. So there’s that. Mostly you’re outdoors so a lot of this is really just about comfort in the overnight hours or if there’s inclement weather. I’d go again now just knowing it’s a bit rough. Not expecting more, it’s just fine. The essentials and nothing more.
