A little break at The Beach Barn for the next 2 weeks…

We will not be open for Cocktail Nights Monday, October 5 through Wednesday, October 7 & Monday October 12-Wednesday October 14th

With our busiest summer of guests and our final wedding weekend of the season behind us, we’re giving our amazing staff a very well-deserved break to relax, recharge, and spend time with family while we tackle a few maintenance and cleanup projects.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this summer—whether you stayed in the cottages, celebrated a wedding with us, or stopped by The Beach Barn for a cocktail and a beautiful evening on the bay. What a season it has been!

We’ll be back Monday October 19th with a fall lineup of cocktails and a few fun surprises!

See you on the 19th for our fall Margarita lineup!

Throwbacks of Fall…

It’s amazing to look back at how much our property has developed since October 1, 2022!

The landscaping has matured, the hydrangeas and bushes have filled in just as we imagined, and every year we continue adding those little touches that make Lake Life Cottages even more special.

One thing that hasn’t changed? That beautiful view of Tawas Bay. And the hospitality? That just keeps getting better!

This weekend marks the end of our busiest wedding season yet, and then it’s time to welcome our fall getaway guests! 🍁

Our Fall Getaway Special begins next week — 20% off October stays!

Make it a Monday–Wednesday getaway and enjoy the fall colors, bonfires by the lake, and handcrafted cocktails from Susie at The Beach Barn.

Stay tuned for the promo code! 🍁

Fall looks pretty good from here.
