This is Cabin 1, where you can enjoy close waterfront access in a comfortable setting with everything you need for a great stay. This is a 2-bedroom 1-bathroom cabin, sleeps 6.
Outside...Take a few steps down the landing to the lake shore and dock. Cabin 1 includes its own private deck on the lake with cooler, chairs and table (Memorial weekend thru Labor Day weekend). Sandy bottom swimming area, paddle boards, kayaks, floats, raft, and water toys. Cabin 1 has its own fire pit, picnic table, BBQ grill, and dining table/chairs. Includes complimentary firewood.

In the cabin...there's a comfortable living room with a large TV. Full kitchen with breakfast bar with walkout to shady private brick paver patio. Have your morning coffee on the sunny front deck.

This cottage (#1) is cozy, clean, and comfortable. The owner is very pleasant and available. The beds are comfortable too! My favorite was the sun room. Great way to wake up with coffee in the morning and watch the sun come up. Definitely a place to come back to!
This property is gorgeous and right on the lake. We loved the private deck and use of the kayaks, paddle boards and canoes. The house was clean and decorated nicely. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals.
Cottage was great for the four of us for the weeks stay.Plenty of room, even though the kitchen area is a little tight. We were able to fish the day and rest comfortably in the evening , inside or outside. We plan to return.
The location was great. The neighbors were friendly. The only thing I wished for was a sandy area for the kids to play in, but there was a sandy public beach not that far from the house. The owner was extremely responsive during our stay. Nice breeze off the lake.
Our previous rental cancelled on us a week before we were to arrive. We scrambled to find a new place to stay. While it wasn't the same as we had previously booked, we had a great time. The place was very clean and had everything we needed.
Perfect location and the cabin reminded us of the cottage my grampa had up here, so we enjoyed reminiscing. Everything worked except the few bulbs in some of the lamps. Other than that, it was just what we were looking for! Great experience for all of us!

This is a very well kept up cabin just steps from Houghton Lake. There are 3 cabins on the property and they all have access to a dock with paddle boards, and kayaks. If you have a boat there is a place to anchor it off the dock and there are jet ski lifts available. The host is very responsive. It was the perfect size for me to share a couple of days on the lake with 3 of my Grandchildren. I will definately be back

Ok cabin - nothing special
Small but clean. No extra staples - toilet paper, garbage bags or paper towels. I had to go out and buy it.
This is a great place to either spend the day in the local area, or to head to other places. We used it as jumping off point to head to the UP for a day trip, and to do some local putt-putt etc. If you're looking for a sandy beach for kids, it's a short drive away. Our two teen girls enjoyed the water and the paddle boards. Bring extra cash for local restaurants. Most places charged a convenience fee for credit cards. With the breeze from the water, we didn't need to use the a/c at all. I enjoyed our stay here.
Cabin was comfortable, clean, and had everything you would need for a great stay. Dave one of the property managers answered my few questions I had in a timely professional manager. View of Houghton Lake was spectacular and locals and other cabin renters where very friendly during our stay. Will defiantly plan another stay next summer :)
We really enjoyed our weekend at this property. The cottage was very well equipped with all the essentials which was very much appreciated. (The Keurig was a big plus for me!!) Everything about this cabin is exactly what is pictured & was so cozy & comfortable to stay at! The dock access is super convenient as well! We would most definitely stay again in the future!
We had a great weekend of baseball, the cabin was just perfect. Nice neighborhood, quiet, easy to get to, has everything you need, property manager awesome and easy to work with, we’ll be staying again on not such a busy weekend so we can enjoy the property even more.
