About this property

The Twins at Sunset Beach #114 Ruth

This listing is for 1 (#114 Ruth) of the 2 charming Twin Cottages! They share a wooded 1/2 acre lot and an adjacent 55' lakefront lot with dock and mooring buoys! These twin cottages, named after the original owner's daughters (Ruth & Dorothy) also share 2 fire pits with Adirondack chairs, picnic tables at the beach, a charcoal grill & several kayaks. Each cottage has its own tabletop gas grill & picnic table. The twins have new decks attached to the cottages with convenient outdoor showers.

Ruth is a cozy 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage that has been freshened up from top to bottom. Ruth has 1 queen bedroom and 1 full-over-full bunk room (plus a sofa bed in the living room). It is suitable for 4 adults max & 2 children. Wifi, Roku TV, linens & some paper products are supplied - just bring your boat & beach towels!

No need to waste time at the boat launch on a daily basis. Instead, walk out onto our private dock and come and go as you please. Each cottage has its own mooring buoy. Higgins Lake is known for its sandy bottom with a very gradual depth drop, making it great for kids and adults alike. Enjoy one of the most beautiful lakes and Sunsets you will ever see.

The cottages are NON SMOKING of any kind.

The Twins are on the Northeast side of Higgins Lake (Sunset Side), located about 5 miles from Roscommon and 3 miles from I-75 exit 244. The cottages face the road end, but it's just a very short walk down the semi wooded lakefront lot to our private lakefront beach.

Thank you for your interest in our cottages. We look forward to seeing you.

Must be 25 years old to make a reservation - suitable for 4 adults max with 2 children. No pets are allowed unless both cottages are rented to the same group and approval has been given.

Owners prefer to rent both twin cottages to same group in peak season. June 13 - Mid Aug rent Sat to Sat. Also see listing for #112 "Dot".

Why they chose this property

Higgins Lake is beautiful and within 2 hours of our home (Metro Detroit). We felt it was the perfect distance to travel for an up north property. We came across these 2 Cottages and immediately felt attached. The fact that they came with a lakefront lot allowing us to have our own private beach, dock and boat mooring rights, sealed the deal.

What makes this property unique

The cottages are located on the northeast side of Higgins Lake, providing some of the most spectacular sunsets imaginable. These Twins have a very long family history with the land dating back almost 100 years. They were named after the original owner’s two daughters (Dot #112 & Ruth #114).
