About this property

Fantastic Lake House Getaway!

Built in 2016 and extremely clean. This is a great place to stay for all seasons. Our home is in a spectacular setting with pristine views, modern amenities and beautiful, yet comfortable décor. Whether you want a romantic getaway for two, if you want to bring the family, or have a couple’s getaway or extended family get together our home offers you all the room of a large a spacious home with all the fun of a vacation getaway. The home itself is inviting and cozy. The outdoor spaces can be peaceful and relaxing and can be a lot of fun for a group up to 10 who enjoy lake life, bonfires, and all types of outdoor fun (golfing, hiking, snowmobiling, off-roading, boating, etc.). We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.

This vacation home is set back from the road and nestled in the trees on a very secluded lot. We have our own private sandy beach on all sports Cedar Lake. The lake is 6 miles long and our home is located at the south end in a tranquil bay across from a treed peninsula. If you have a boat, you can launch it at the Cedar Lake state boat launch and pull it up to shore. We are located less than 5 minutes from the Lakewood Shores Golf Resort and within 5-30 minutes from hundreds of trails for hiking, riding, off-roading and snowmobiling in the Huron National Forest.

The house is equipped with a large kitchen, an island in an open floor plan, which is great for entertaining a small crowd. We have most items you need to cook including a microwave, griddle, toaster, coffee pot, pots, pans, utensils, etc. There are three full bathrooms with lots of space and the master bath has an air bubble soaking tub that is great for relaxation in the cooler months. We have WIFI and three TVs where you can access internet accounts such as Netflix. We have a flagstone fire pit for bonfires on the property and outdoor seating for everyone. There is a gas grill on the back porch, a picnic table, and a patio set for outdoor eating. We also have a private balcony off the master bedroom that overlooks the lake and bistro table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee away from everyone while the morning sun is shining over the lake.

This home is located 5 minutes from the main street in town where you will find several restaurants and shops. We have three ice cream stores, two grocery stores, a bowling alley, a movie theater, coffee shop, mini golf, and a skate park right in town. Also, in town you can go to the city beach and pier on Lake Huron. It is a great family setting with a water park, playground equipment, lots of shaded areas and benches. Just a couple minutes down the road is the Lakewood Shore Golf Resort https://www.lakewoodshores.com/ with three courses. If you enjoy hiking, kayaking, and canoeing there are many places to go for those activities as well. You can visit Lumberman's Monument (15 min drive), which is a historical site with great views, hiking, and community activities https://www.michigan.org/property/lumberman-s-monument-visitor-center . The Iargo springs are also close by, where you can enjoy excellent views of the Ausable River and springs. http://www.us23heritageroute.org/iosco.asp?ait=av&aid=28. We are the landing point for the Ausable Canoe Marathon https://www.ausablecanoemarathon.org/ and spectators come from all over to celebrate the racers accomplishments.

We are located near US 23 which runs along Lake Huron. The home is located in between Tawas and Harrisville, which are also great places to visit and are 20 minutes in either direction. We are easy to find and are only a short distance from many exciting things to do.

Perfect location
This is our second stay at the cedar lake property and it never disappoints. The house is beautiful. The deck and yard are perfect. The seclusion of the beach area and sandy beach are exactly what we were looking for. The lake is perfect for kayaking and fishing. 6 adults and 4 kids, never felt crowded. We love this place and reccomended to anyone looking for a nice getaway.

Pictures don’t do this property justice! The area is amazing (Lake Huron, Oscoda…) but we had no reason at all to leave this beautiful home on Cedar Lake. The weather was uncooperative for half of our stay but we had plenty of room to play board and card games inside. We brought our kayaks and used them on Cedar Lake several times, and the kids fished right there on the beach, and swam some too. The bonfire area is gorgeous. The master bedroom and adjacent balcony are right out of a movie scene. The kitchen was incredibly spacious. We’ll be back!! On another note, my nephew left his laptop behind and the home owners went waaay out of their way to get it returned.

Cedar Lake Home
The images are exactly as advertised on posting. The beach area can support a family, whether you are fishing off the shore, playing with sand toys, and -or just laying out. Fire pit area is set up for about 10 people and nice seasoned wood. You can get a decent whiffle ball game in yard. Deck furniture and deck are nice along with the foot shower. Grill is nice with extra propane tank as back up. Home is clean and well maintained. Oscoda itself has some nice beaches but Alpena or Tawas has more to offer from a tourist standpoint. Our weather during the week was cooler and wetter than we had hoped but we still had a ton of fun and my grandsons had the time of their lives. John is a class act and will ensure you are well cared for and supported during your stay. If i was to change one thing, i would gave liked King bed in master bedroom. The Master is huge, the closet alone could hold a king bed. Thanks for being great host John!

About the host

Hosted by John P Clancy

Host profile image
We would like to introduce ourselves. We are John and Krista Clancy. We purchased the property where the lake house sits in 2014. To find the perfect place, we drove around every lake from Houghton Lake to Oscoda looking for a piece of wooded land that we could build a lake house for our family to relax and enjoy each other. We found this place and fell in love with the lake and the birch trees. We cleared the property ourselves to keep the wooded, up -north feel that we were looking for. We designed the floor plan of the house and worked with the builder to complete many projects during construction. We built the kitchen, painted, installed the flooring, tile, stone work on the exterior of the house and on the fireplace, and built the flagstone patio. We put our heart and soul into this home. We have enjoyed coming here with our family for the first three years and decided that we wanted to share our home with others.

When we are here, we enjoy fishing, kayaking, and soaking up sun on the beach. We bring family and friends and sit around the bonfire in the evenings listening to music and cooking on the grill. In the mornings John and I have coffee at the bistro set on the balcony off the master bedroom. the sun is so beautiful coming up over the lake and shining through the leaves on the trees. It is so quiet and peaceful first thing in the morning while all of our guests are asleep.

We always go to town and eat at The Office. It is a small town bar and restaurant. They have a DJ on Friday and Saturday night which is always a good time. We also like to hike. This is one of the reasons why we like Oscoda so much. There are many trails nearby and we have several travel and hiking books available for our guests to help them find their own adventures.

We are very excited to host you and your family and friends. We know that you will have a great time and enjoy the inviting space that we have created.

Why they chose this property

This property is absolutely beautiful inside and out. You will be very happy with the space, even when you have up to 12 people staying. We have nice beds with large rooms and bathrooms. There is plenty of storage. We have both indoor and outdoor seating that is comfortable for 12. Everyone can be together for meals or activities, when you want to be together, and there is also space that people can go off and do their own thing without disturbing others, when you don't.

Our accommodations work well for kids and adults. It would be great for a family or an extended family to spend some time together. It is also a great space for 3 couples to go and everyone can have a private space and bathroom. It would also be great for two couples with their kids. Even with lots of kids, everyone still has their own private space. The second upstairs bedroom has sleeping for 6 and has a TV and private bathroom. It can be used as a private space for one couple, a shared space for two couples or a shared space for all the kids, where they can hang out away from the adults.

When it comes to meal preparation, our kitchen is equipped to cook for a crowd, when necessary. We have lots of counter space, dishes, utensils, a crock pot, two skillets, and lots of other things that you would need to whip up a great dinner to feed a couple or feed a small crowd. The furniture in the living room is comfortable and a great place to have a conversation or enjoy a movie. We have a DVD player in the living room if you want to go into the video rental store in town and have a movie night. Whether it is raining or the sun is shining; if it is a beautiful summer day or in a snow storm in the dead of winter; this place is a great place to getaway and enjoy yourself, your family, and the outdoor

What makes this property unique

We have an up-north feel with modern amenities and a very comfortable space. We are like a resort, but in with the comfort of a home. We are Up-North, but close to town where you can get and do lots of things to keep everyone busy. It is great for all seasons and a very flexible space that can be used for many purposes and events.

This space would also be an ideal for a business meeting or retreat. We have a large table in the dining room that could be used as a meeting space and about a mile us the road is the Lakewood Shores Golf Resort with 3 courses to choose from.

If you have any difficulties, we are very accessible and we can make sure that you will be assisted if there are any difficulties with the house or property during your stay.
