Liked availability for <1wk rental, proximity to main road & host was incredibly responsive. Kids liked the train set. Didn't like that WiFi is advertised but not provided. No cable and the TV/VCR/DVD only worked sometimes. Ceiling water stains in EVERY room. Torn linens and damaged counters/furniture. Something was melted in the dryer so was concerned to use it. No towels provided. Advertises that sleeps 10 but no (glad we didn't need that many beds). The key does NOT work to the second building. Host said it sticks, but I tried multiple times and couldn't get it to work (meaning we could only use 1 of the bathrooms). My husband was able to get the lock to work 1x. Smelled of mildew and carpet always felt damp. Kiddos said they felt uncomfortable staying there - one tripped on a pipe in the ground (almost breaking their toe). There was dirty laundry in the yard and beer cans in the fire pit. Patio cushions were filthy. Could be "charming", but needs some TLC.
Hello! My name is Dave and I am from Ira Twp. My family bought the cottage at Higgins Lake in Sept. of 2020. We were seasonal campers, but due to the pandemic, we decided to purchase property instead. The cottage has been an amazing place for my family and friends over the years. It is my hope that all those that visit our place will have a memorable time with family and friends! Please reach out if you have any questions about the cottage or the Higgins Lake area!
What I love best about the cottage and the neighborhood it is nestled in, is the quiet nature and the close proximity to the lake. There is a public dock that is located right off of Ray St. and Samoset Drive. Boats can be moored adjacent to this dock for easy access to the water. There is also a little convenient store that is a quick walk from the cottage that all the supplies you would need!
I think what makes this property stand out is the amount of people it can sleep. With a master bedroom, bunk beds, two pull-out couches and access to a large air mattress, large families can be accommodated! Also, having two separate buildings that both have bathrooms and showers is very convenient!
