Great Family Experience
Very nice property with an easy 1-2 minute walk to the water. Plenty of parking, most kitchen needs/accessory’s (no coffee grinder but there was a small chopper upstairs that substituted), also had a need for a first aid kit but none found so might want to bring one along. If you are at all picky about your pillows, you might want to bring your own as well. The house was clean but certain details were overlooked (dusty lamps, dust and dirt under couches/beds). The property apparently changed hands from the time we reserved to the time we were actually there and I did see a difference in response time from the new management (slower). All of that said, our family of 10 people that included 4 generations with the oldest member being 83 and the youngest being 3 had a wonderful time together staying at this property. With 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 kitchens and living spaces we had room to be together as well as privacy. We played family games at night, had a campfire one night for the kids to enjoy s’mores, the grill was plenty big enough for burgers, hotdogs and chicken one night and Houghton Lake was easily accessible. Coffee shop about a half mile away so a nice easy walk in the morning and a public access with dock and restrooms less than that. One thing that didn’t occur to me to consider for the oldest family member was walk in shower availability and this property has only tubs with showers. Not the biggest issue for a few days but I know it made it harder for mom.
