Summer is Calling! Waterfront Cabin with Private Dock

Escape to a stunning waterfront retreat on Houghton Lake—Michigan’s largest inland lake and a true summer paradise! Experience the very best of northern Michigan with endless opportunities for relaxation and adventure.

Nestled on the serene North Shore, spend your days soaking up the sun on the waterfront deck, cruising from your private dock with a boat lift, or unwinding by the fire pit. Fire up the grill for lakeside dinners and create unforgettable memories.

Escape to this charming chalet-style home with soaring vaulted ceilings and large windows that offer breathtaking views of Houghton Lake from your private frontage. The open-concept layout is designed for comfort and relaxation, featuring a fully stocked kitchen with all the essentials. Enjoy meals at the adjacent dining area or unwind in the cozy living room, complete with a large flat-screen TV and a queen sleeper sofa (comfortably sleeping two).

The home offers three beds and two full bathrooms: a queen bed in the downstairs bedroom with a smart TV, a king bed in the loft, and a comfortable queen sleeper sofa in the living room. There’s one full bathroom on the main floor and another full bathroom in the loft area. The loft also includes a washer and dryer, as well as a dedicated workspace for your convenience. Stay connected with high-speed Wi-Fi and a Spectrum cable box offering 60 channels.

The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, freezer, coffee maker and purified water—perfect for cooking up delicious meals (please note: no dishwasher).

Step outside to the spacious deck, where you can relax around the outdoor gas fire pit, enjoy meals at the dining table, or fire up the grill for a fun cookout with family and friends. The expansive yard faces the lake and features a private fire pit and a dock, installed during the summer months, that’s ideal for your boat or water activities.

Parking is conveniently available behind the house, making it easy to arrive and settle in.

Book your lakeside getaway today and experience the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and stunning views!
