Tucked along Huron Hills Drive, The Dillon Cottage is your cozy retreat in the heart of East Tawas — a place where slow mornings, river breezes, and genuine hospitality make every stay feel like coming back.
The Dillon Cottage isn't just a place to sleep — it's a place to pause. Located on the quiet charm of Huron Hills Drive, our small guesthouse sits just minutes from the St. Clair River, where you can watch the boats drift by or listen to the water lap against the shore.
We opened our doors for travelers who want something different from a chain hotel: clean rooms, a home-cooked welcome, and neighbors who actually know your name. Whether you're passing through on your way to Bay City or settling in for a quiet weekend by the river, we'd love to make you feel at home.
Every room at The Dillon Cottage is thoughtfully kept simple — clean linens, comfortable beds, and the kind of quiet that lets you actually unwind.
Our most popular room features a queen bed, private bathroom, and a window that frames the St. Clair River — perfect for watching sunsets from your pillow.
Step out onto the garden patio from this bright, airy room. Equipped with two twin beds and all the comforts you need — ideal for friends or family traveling together.
East Tawas sits at the mouth of the St. Clair River, where freshwater meets the great lake. It's the kind of town that doesn't rush you — but there's plenty to discover when you're ready.
Walk the breakwall, watch the ferries, and climb the historic lighthouse for panoramic views.
Local shops, restaurants, and the annual Bay City Ribfest — just a short drive away.
Hiking trails, fishing spots, and campgrounds along the river — nature at your doorstep.
Give us a call — we'd be happy to answer any questions, help you pick the right room, or just say hello. No booking fees, no hassle. Just a real conversation with real people.
Whether you have a question about your stay, want to check availability, or just want to know what's happening in East Tawas this week — reach out. We respond to every message.
