There is a full kitchen and two separate eating areas. We also have an external gameroom/hangout in our big red barn called the Hideout Saloon. The main part of the house was built by my grandad in 1946. The trim around the doors and windows are all made from aged pine that he had saved in the 1950's. We have central air and heat. There is a 4 foot fire ring perfect for cooking, making s'mores, or just relaxing. There is a washer and dryer for your use. We have a charcoal grill for you to use...bring your own charcoal and starter fluid. There is a tankless water heater so you can take back to back showers. Sorry no bathtubs. Come relax and just chill. The sandy beach is only a mile away as is the rest of town or relax on our 42ft covered porch Firewood is available to use if it is in the shed. If not, then Jack can deliver a full cord of oak if you desire for around $80. Please contact him directly prior to your stay and mention that you are staying at Hideout in the Woods. 989-370-0822. He is cash only and can dump the wood right by the firepit. The Hideout Saloon is now open and equipped with a pool table, dart board, foosball, sound system, player piano, and custom made bar. This space can be heated by 2 propane heaters that we provide along with the tanks. You are responsible for the propane. Make sure you checkout the pictures. Please note that the Hideout Saloon is available to you, but please do not review us on its cleanliness as it lives in the woods in an old pole barn. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: No Smoking in the house, do it at the firepit ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Bicycle parking - Billiards/pool table - Foosball table - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Sledding nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing 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) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Double-glazed windows - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Garden - Unit size: 1,800 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102390000/102386700/102386634/209db152.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy house on the lake with hot tub Greenbush - Hot tub - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 7.0 Good 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-24&endDate=2025-10-25&selected=102386634&PinnedHotelID=102386634&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/64930000/64924700/64924603/7ca602dd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lakefront Retreat: Escape to a SANDY Pet Friendly private Lake Huron Beach!
