Southwest Michigan’s Upper Scott Lake sits just far enough from the bustle to let the loon calls be your morning alarm. At My Sweet Adeline you have two lakefront homes to pick from—each one ready for an easy-going stay with friends, family, and even the dog. Cabintimers, grab your coffee mug and picture which porch view fits your style.
Sleeps 8 | 4 bedrooms | 2 baths | pet friendly A pine-framed deck, crackling gas fireplace, and private dock set the scene for long weekends and week-long reunions. The Cottage sits steps from the water, so kids can race from breakfast to the row boat in seconds. Evenings belong to s’mores around the fire pit or stargazing from the hammock. Inside, central heat and A/C keep every season comfortable while DirecTV and a stereo with outdoor speakers add rainy-day backup fun. A full kitchen, grill on the deck, and provided linens mean you can pack light and start relaxing faster.
Sleeps 10 | 4 bedrooms + loft | 2 baths | pet friendly Five wooded acres wrap this airy retreat, giving kids plenty of lawn to roam before they jump off the private dock. Two main-level bedrooms (one king, one full) plus an upstairs loft with twins are a smart setup for multi-generation trips. Slide open the lakeside door, fire up the grill, and let dinner move from kitchen to huge deck without missing the sunset. A gas fireplace takes over when snow blankets the shoreline, making winter getaways as tempting as summer fun.

Lake Huron’s sunrise coast is calling, and Coast 2 Coast – Vacation Rentals and Real Estate near Oscoda offers three shoreline retreats so every group of Cabintimers can grab front-row seats to the waves. Each cabin is perched on a broad ribbon of private sand with nothing but lake breeze between you and the water. Pack the cooler, kick off your shoes, and decide which style suits your crew.
The Super-Cute Lake Huron 2-Bedroom Cabin is big on comfort for smaller groups. Inside, knotty-pine walls frame an open living room that flows into a well-stocked kitchenette—coffee maker and wine glasses included. A queen bedroom pairs with a twin-over-full bunk room to sleep five. Step out to 100 feet of level lawn, a shared bonfire ring, and that soft-sand beach that makes stargazing effortless.
Traveling with the whole family tree? Spread out in the Lake Huron Beachfront 3-Bed, 2-Bath Vacation Home. This knotty-pine classic sleeps up to twelve between a king suite, multiple doubles, and a pair of sleeper sofas. Two full baths keep mornings smooth. Friends gravitate to the glassed-in sun porch—high-top table for six, cushy lounge seating for six more—before drifting outside to grill dinner or chase the kids along the shoreline. Boat-and-trailer parking makes it easy to launch toys in Oscoda’s clear water.
Craving a couples’ retreat or a solo recharge? The Rustic & Cozy 1-Bedroom Cabin keeps things simple and sweet. A queen bed and sleeper sofa handle up to four guests, while a compact yet complete kitchenette covers the essentials. Pour your morning brew at the picnic table, watch gulls skim the shallows, and let lake rhythms set the pace.
What to explore beyond the sand
Northern Sands sits between Oscoda and Harrisville, two small towns loaded with local flavor—think café breakfasts, gift shops, and friendly taverns. Paddle a stretch of the Au Sable River, climb the steps at Lumberman’s Monument, or snap a lighthouse selfie at Tawas Point. Golf courses weave through the pines, while the Wurtsmith Air Museum tells the region’s aviation story. When twilight glows lavender over Lake Huron, spark a campfire and let the Milky Way steal the show.

The Lodge — room for eight. A full renovation added a wrap-around deck, Wi-Fi, and two baths while keeping the classic log-lodge feel. Three bunk beds plus a full bed let families stretch out, and evenings end around the firepit tripod frying up fresh-caught walleye from White Potato Lake across the road.

Two standalone cottages—Loyola and Marquette—offer different takes on classic Northwoods comfort, each with its own lakeside hangout space and quick access to all‑sports water fun.

Each cabin has garage parking, onsite laundry, and court time for tennis or hoops. Bring the bikes, ATVs, or snowmobiles—trails lace the surrounding forest in every season. Spend the day fishing musky, wakeboarding, or paddling through the clear water, then watch eagles glide overhead as loons call it a night.

Just 13 miles north of Grand Rapids, MN, WA-GA-THA-KA Resort spreads out along the gin-clear shoreline of Lake Wabana. Seven classic cabins—each with full kitchens, screened porches, and a private fire ring—sit among towering birch and pine. The Ojibwe name means “dwelling place among the birch trees,” and three generations of the Miner family still greet guests with stories, extra firewood, and a promise of easy lake days.
Life on the Water
Morning mist slips off the bay as loons whistle. Cabintimers grab a free canoe or paddleboat right from the dock, or troll Little Wabana’s rock points for walleye and smallmouth bass. Kids build sandcastles on the wide beach, spike a volleyball, then cool off with cannonballs from the swim raft. Even better—each cabin stay comes with unlimited split wood for the lakeside sauna and your nightly s’more session.
Inside, knotty-pine walls frame big windows that pull the lake view indoors. New mattresses, dependable Wi-Fi, and modern appliances keep everyone comfy without stealing the spotlight from eagle sightings or sunset colors. Two-bedroom units fit small families; three-bedroom layouts stretch out for multigenerational crews up to six guests. Pets are welcome in select cabins, because fetch is always better off the dock.

It’s Cabin Time® takes pride in featuring dedicated members like Brekke’s Fireside Resort. For years, they’ve successfully welcomed Cabintimers who find them through RentWisconsinCabins.com. This family-operated resort sits on the shores of Lake George in Rhinelander, Wisconsin. It represents a classic lakeside cottage vacation experience. Brekke’s history stretches back decades. Booking your stay directly with them offers significant advantages for your trip planning and budget.
A Legacy on Lake George
The story of Brekke’s Fireside Resort begins in 1936. Arthur and Wanda Hutchinson purchased the land for $3,000. They built the foundation of the resort, including cottages 1 through 6 and the office building we see today. Arthur passed away in 1943, leaving a lasting mark.
The Brekke family chapter started in 1971. Ron and Carol Brekke bought the resort that year. They introduced updates, adding cottage 8 and establishing the current bar area. Sadly, Ron passed in 1977. Carol faced a difficult decision. She chose to remain and became the heart of the resort for over four decades. Her dedication, supported by helpful neighbors and generations of wonderful guests, kept the resort thriving.
Today, Ron and Carol’s children, Dan Brekke and Nancy Brekke-Jones, carry on the family tradition. They manage the resort with the same commitment to guest experience. While the resort has evolved over nearly 90 years, Dan and Nancy hope the warm, welcoming feeling guests take away remains constant.
Your Lakeside Cottage Experience at Brekke’s
Brekke’s Fireside Resort offers several exceptionally clean housekeeping cottages. These rentals provide a comfortable home base for your Northwoods vacation. Each cottage includes essential kitchen facilities like a microwave and coffee maker. The bathrooms feature showers. Linens are furnished for the beds. Guests should plan to bring their own bath towels and beach towels.
The resort ensures you have tools for outdoor enjoyment too. A 14-foot aluminum boat comes included with each cottage rental. Outside every cottage, you will find a 22-inch Weber grill for cookouts. A picnic table and lawn chairs are also provided. Modern conveniences are available. Guests have access to free Wi-Fi. Brekke’s is also a pet-friendly resort, welcoming furry family members.
Fun on Lake George
Lake George itself is a key attraction. The lake covers 446 acres. It reaches a maximum depth of 26 feet, with much of it ranging from 10 to 18 feet deep. Explore 5.5 miles of scenic shoreline.
Brekke’s offers many ways to enjoy the water. Relax on the gradual sloping sand beach. Swim out to the diving raft for a plunge. Kids love the large lily pad swim mat. Take advantage of the resort’s complimentary watercraft. Kayaks, paddle boards, paddle boats, and a canoe are all free for guest use. Remember, your cottage rental includes a 14-foot rowboat.
For those wanting more power, Brekke’s rents outboard motors. They also offer spacious 20-foot pontoon boats with 60hp motors for rent. These pontoons fit up to 10 people. They are perfect for cruising, swimming, or serious fishing. Pontoon rentals are available to resort guests and the public, but must stay on Lake George.
Fishing on Lake George is excellent. Anglers can target muskie, northern pike, walleye, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, crappie, perch, bluegill, and rock bass. You can often catch panfish right off the resort docks. Brekke’s provides a lake map to help you find good spots. Need an edge? Rent trolling motors or portable fish locators. If you keep your catch, a fish cleaning house with running water and lights is available.
Guests are welcome to bring their own boats. There is ample dock space and trailer parking. Power outlets are located near the lake for battery charging (bring an extension cord). Please note, there is no boat launch on-site, but a free public launch is just two miles away. Due to the lake size, wake boats are not permitted.
More Resort Recreation
The fun at Brekke’s extends beyond the water. Numerous land-based activities keep guests entertained. Challenge friends or family on the tennis court or pickleball court. Enjoy classic resort games like shuffleboard and horseshoes. Play pickup games on the basketball court. Set up the net for volleyball or badminton.
Younger guests have a dedicated playground area with swings. Multiple picnic spots are scattered around the grounds. In the evening, gather around the communal firepit. Brekke’s provides the firewood. Need a break indoors? The resort features a bar and game room for relaxation and socializing.
