Porch + Views: Waterfront Home on Houghton Lake!

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful property! Owner forgot to update about no longer any cable, so they sent us a snack/dessert delivery. Next time we will remember to bring our Ruku password. The beds were comfy and we would of had plenty of room to bring more family members with us with no problem. Kids would have loved the lake. I enjoyed taking out one of the kayaks for a paddle. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware,spices,and a coffee station. We used the gas grill, the airfryer, and the crockpot. It was wonderful to sit outside or in the screened room and listen to the waves. There were several golf courses close and we played 4 days. The closest party store closed at 6 on Sunday but we found another one just a few miles away. There is no question that we would like to come and stay here again!"
