No access

The house was very cute and comfortable. The only down fall is access to the lake. Even though we were only 200 ft. from lake, the property at the end of the road was private, so we didn't have access to ittroad

Cabin near the water

This cottage suited our needs for my son and I, and we took our beach chairs to sit at the end of the road, by the water, for a number of hours. Very nicely decorated, and all the conveniences of home. Cute welcome treats were a nice touch.

This small cottage nonetheless has every convenience we could have asked for and more. It is neat and charming in its aspect, and we will quite possibly be returning here again for future anniversaries.

Quaint lake cottage

My twin really enjoyed the kayaks & bikes. It was a sweet quaint cottage on Houghton Lake w/ a good location. We are from the south & have very nice high quality water. Saying that, I'm not used to the smell of the tap water, which I was not be able to drink. It was comparable to a sulphur or an egg smell. Not sure if the water softener wasn’t working or not. Over all that is the only concern I had. The owners are very nice & hospitable. Enjoy the cottage & our time spent there.

Perfect little cottage

My husband and I stayed for a week for our anniversary with our kids joining us for the last couple nights. The cottage was absolutely perfect for the week! The big garage with bikes and extra kayaks was a huge added bonus. The place was so cute and comfortable, and we were very close to the lake. We had a fantastic week and would definitely come back!

You need to stay here!

What a GREAT space! If you’re looking for a place to stay in Houghton Lake, look no further. This is the best Vrbo I’ve stayed at! Very clean, quaint, cozy, literally 200 feet from the lake…and it comes with access to bikes and kayaks!! The full sized kitchen is stocked with all the amenities, including a full spice rack, so you’re able to make all the meals you want if going out to eat isn’t in your plans. There’s also a full size washer and dryer! Plenty of parking and a fire pit, too! Ken and Angela were great with their communication and instructions. They answered our questions in a very efficient manner, and they even accommodated a last minute request that really helped us out. There is also a smaller cabin right next door to this one that they also own and turned into a Vrbo. Although we didn’t see the inside, the outside was just as nice and clean as the bigger one that we stayed in. We sincerely enjoyed our stayed and when we go back to Houghton Lake, we’ll definitely be staying here again. Thanks for a great stay/experience, Ken and Angela!!

Great communication, clean place. Would stay again. Listed 2 bedroom which is correct but a pull out bed in the couch was not at the place as listed. Only a concern; the TV cord in master bedroom is coming apart at the connection due to the door sliding back and forth on it. I would move the outlet over more to prevent further damage or possible fire

Perfectly Little Lakeview House!

I stayed here with my partner for 2 nights, and I have nothing but good things to say about the trip! Ken and Angelina were so incredible and accommodating. They were excellent with their communication about the home and its features. There is a gorgeous view of Houghton Lake from the home, and it is in a private enough location where there isn’t heavy traffic. There isn’t lake access from the house, but I found a beach you could swim at (Sullivan Beach) that was less than a 10 minute drive from the place. I’d say the house could comfortably sleep 6 people. There was a lot of room for parking, too. The house was very clean and had a lot of charm. I am very happy with my stay and would absolutely do it again!
