No fishing

The front of the cottage is deceiving from pictures-the pit for the fire should be cleaned out I rented a pontoon and they had theirs there and a jet ski on the other side it should’ve been moved while we were staying there the lake is really shallow you can’t fish from deck you can walk out 100 yards and it’s not over your head no good fishing you have to rent a boat I didn’t know that I went for fishing and had another expense for pontoon I should of been told

Perfect Cottage

This was a perfect cottage for our relaxing girls' week on the lake. Great location close to shopping, hiking, kayaking and exploring surrounding areas. Cottage was very clean and having 3 separate bedrooms was a plus. Beds were very comfortable and cottage had great deck for morning coffee. Nice assortment of games, books and movies for rainy days. Beautiful views right on the lake with private dock and stairs into the water. We will definitely be returning again!

We stayed at this beautiful home for Witches Weekend in Houghton Lake. At first I thought the house was very tiny. However, i was pleasantly surprised at all of the same and the cozy feeling of the house. The beds were a 10 out of 10!

Great way to end summer vacation

Our kids had a blast playing in the shallow water off the dock. Cottage was very clean and included everything we needed in the kitchen. Evenings by the fire and beautiful sunrises the whole week! Very close to restaurants and things for the kids to do.

Wonderful lake house

This vacation rental is in a good location. Water is shallow and good for kids to swim or float. My husband caught many fish including walleye and pike. Two good restaurants on the water. Lake house is clean and their is ample space for everyone. At one point, we had 5 adults and 4 children. The beds are all extremely comfortable. There is a nice furnished living room, and sun room with good TV programming. The owners have provided very nice landscaping with beautiful potted plants. We enjoyed our stay and would fully recommend this vacation rental for your next visit to Houghton Lake.

Ice Fishing Fun!

The owner was very kind and accommodating. Very easy check in process. Very clean house and property. It's close to many stores and restaurants. We had 7 adults and everyone had their own space. Direct access to the lake and cold weather made it perfect for ice fishing 🎣! We had a bonfire in the snow and there were plenty of games to play. The beds were very comfy. It was a great time and a perfect home. Thank you to the owners for giving us the opportunity to enjoy my husband's 40th birthday with close friends.

Much needed break, house "fit" perfectly!

House fit 4teens, aunt and parents perfectly. Beds were comfortable, and 2 TVs - allowed for gaming on one and movies on the other. One bath and kitchen had everything needed and owners were VERY helpful and responsive! "Hard water" sports were fun this time and want to stay again for "soft water" sports this summer!

We loved this cottage right on the lake. It was very clean, had all the things you needed for your stay, and plenty of room for a bigger group. The weather was fabulous and the owners very helpful and prompt to answer a question I had about entering the property. We would definitely stay here again. It was perfect for us! The only drawback would be the one bathroom. We ate breakfast at MJ's, really good, and at Garrett's Family Diner which had the most delicious American fried potatoes.

This property was awesome. It was the first time we have ever done this and it was a siblings getaway and we all had kayaks so we wanted to be on the water. There were tons of games for us to play in case of rain. The house was clean, well taken care of! We plan on going again for a longer time!! Loved sitting out by the fire at night looking at lights across the lake and just being able to relax, it was so peaceful.
