We spent our days away from the home but it had everything we needed and was in a quiet location. I would recommend cleaning the couches better as they smelled really bad of pets.
I would highly recommend staying here, itâs clean and well kept. Plenty of room for two adults and 3 kids. We will definitely be staying here again next year!!!!
We have been going up to Higgins/houghton for three years now and this has been our absolute favorite place to stay! Beautiful home, with easy access to town.
This place had everything we needed for a place to relax and sleep between other activities. Checking in and out was easy, and everything was clean and organized. The backyard was a plus and gave us a place to relax in the evenings.
Perfect little house for our weekend getaway. House was exactly as pictured and provided a cozy environment. It is conveniently located near a few restaurants and bars as well. Communication with owner was easy and he was very responsive. Overall a great stay, we would definitely recommend and stay again.
This place had everything you need and some extras. The home was very comfortable and the backyard is a great space for relaxing in the evenings. Loved that there was a doggie door and a fenced in back yard! Location was great too!
Overall very impressed! The home was very clean and had all of the household essentials you needed. The back yard being fully fenced in was a huge plus for bringing your dogs! We will absolutely book again.
We love staying here! This is probably the 4th or 5th time booking this home. Itâs perfect, especially if you have fur babies. Itâs so nice to have a fenced in yard. Perfect for people with side by sides. You can get to all the trails right from the house. We will be back!
We made a last minute reservation to this cottage days before our arrival date. When we got there we were in awe on how beautiful this home was. With a pull out couch, two sets of bunk beds and a separate room with a queen bed-sleeping arraignments worked out perfectly. We were able to make cooked meals due to the full kitchen providing everything (besides food) that we needed. There is a boat launch 30 steps down, and a grocery store 3 minutes up the street. The house host was so helpful with any questions we had. I definitely will be returning next summer!
Nice little cottage for the family to stay in. We are a family of 5 and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house was clean and is well kept. The owners definitely take care of the place and provided everything and more for their guests. Would recommend staying here. I personally didnât care for the town but that is no fault of the owners.
We had the best time enjoying the beautiful fall colors and wonderful weather for our annual ladies weekend together! The house was perfect and clean and close to town for us to enjoy the restaurants and bars. We walked down to the water each morning to enjoy the beauty. We would definitely stay again, thank you for opening your beautful home to us!
This is our second time renting this property this year. The Houghton Lake area has so much to offer and the location of this property is perfect. Near the water and not far from town or trails, we find this property to be very convenient. The property owner is great to work with and always very timely on the rental processes. The house is very nice. Much bigger inside than it looks. Plenty of room for all with two bedrooms for a total of six beds. The backyard offers some privacy with fencing all around, nice fire pit and newly added lighting. If you are visiting the area to do some trail riding, water sports or simply to enjoy the townâŠyou canât go wrong with this property. We will be back.
This cottage is entirely renovated and did so an amazing way to maximize the small space! I stayed with my spouse and 2 toddlers, but considering it again for a girls weekend with 5 adults, which would still be enough space. They allow dogs which fit what we needed and was still very clean! I loved the outdoor space with a hammock, fire pit with plenty of chairs and patio set. The outdoor lighting completed the space perfectly. The location is can't beat! Short walk to neighborhood park with playground equipment and a beach. Short drive to restaurants and other park/beaches. Close proximity to save a lot and 10 min drive to wal mart. Appreciated the supplied cleaning supplies, trash bags, hand soaps, etc. I loved the rain shower! No bathtub for toddlers but they loved the shower as much as i did! Jonathan was quick to respond to questions! I would recommend 100%
This place had the best location. Just down the street was access to the lake. Sometimes the neighbors near the access can be unfriendly but these people were great, even offering to let our 2 year old daughter play with their grandkids on the sand they brought in. As for the property it is just down the road from Houghton Lake, where the lake access is and you can see it from the front yard and only 15 minutes from Higgins Lake. We brought our boat and put in in both Houghton and Higgins Lake (much clearer). Plenty of room to park the boat in the driveway. We loved the dog door to the fenced back yard. It was just like home for our dogs since we have one at home too. Very pet friendly and easy to watch our toddler without her running off. The home is newly remodeled and very beautiful. My mother loved how well stocked the kitchen was with anything you could need. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a nice quiet place in the area.
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Jonathan's cottage. It was just what I had hoped for, very quiet, clean and close to a beautiful little public beach. Jonathan thought of everything to make our stay cozy and comfortable. If you have any questions, he responds very quickly. Don't hesitate to rent this beautiful cottage, you will be happy you did!
