This gorgeous site is in Roscommon, Michigan, and is surrounded by nature and woodland. Lake Higgins is right on the site's doorstep and is known for its deep and clear water that is perfect for fishing and swimming. Higgins Lake State Park is just a few minutes from the rental and is the ideal place for guests to explore the surrounding area.

While in Roscommon, guests are encouraged to visit the different sights on offer, including the Civilian Conservation Corps Museum, the Cross Country Ski Headquarters, and Campbell's Canoe Livery, where guests can rent kayaks and take them out on the lake for a fun day on the water or a fun float down the Ausable River.

My husband and I go stay somewhere on Higgins Lake every summer. So far, this is my favorite place we've ever stayed. Cabin is cozy and comfortable, the lake is so beautiful, and I love having such easy access on a private dock. The owners were very responsive whenever I had questions. Great trip!

Right on the lake

I stayed here with three friends and had a wonderful time! The house is right on the lake with an awesome dock you share with two other houses . The lake is very shallow so we just sat in the lake all day although the water was a little chilly. Everything was comfy and cozy and the no AC was no problem with tons of windows and fans available. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The TV with cable and Netflix was a nice bonus as well! There was enough paper towel and toilet paper to last us four days but no towels. I would definitely recommend to stay here!

Cozy

Overall it was a cozy cottage! Smaller than even pictures look. Really should only say sleeps 6, 8 is pushing it. Outside area was great, loved the enclosed gazebo especially when it was lightly raining. We enjoyed our stay.

Listing is very misleading

This rental is a SHARED beach, campfire, boats, gazebo and fire pit... NOT directly ON the lake. Make sure that if you’re planning to use the boats to bring your own life vests as non are provided... The cabin is well kept, except the stove didn’t work and we planned our meals around that. Bring your own wood for fires in the evening as well. If a letter would have been sent to renters more than a day ahead of our departure, we would have had proper time enough to plan our stay.

Great weeks stay!

From check in to check out everything was wonderful! The owner Greg Checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. He even helped us locate a boat rental after our boat we had reserved for 6 months was rented to someone else :( The only problem we had was the loss of power 3 days in row. This by no means was the fault of the owner. Most of the lake was out we heard. Even the housekeeper Tammy was very friendly and accommodating. We will be back Greg just don’t know if it will be this cabin as the family is growing and we might have to have your larger house. Thanks for a wonderful vacation. Pete & Bonnie
