Only complaint was the beds were not comfy and sprinkler system was a bit of an annoyance but overall it was a great place to stay with plenty of parking for our large family and large home made it very comfortable. Would defnatly do it again.

Family Getaway

This house was perfect for our family of 8. Great location on the lake. Plenty of room for the extended family to come and hang out by the water. The beds were comfortable. Recommend each person bring a blanket, a bedspread is provided. Kitchen was well stocked though we did not cook alot. We hope to be back again for another stay. John was very accessible if we needed anything.

Amazing time at this beautiful property! The cabin gives that rustic feel while providing all the comforts of home. Livingroom and kitchen look out over the lake. Although my kids complained of no TVs in 2 of 3 bedrooms, they quickly found other things to occupy their time, swimming, kayaks and walks in the woods. Hosts John and Kip were kind and anticipated our every need: Solo firepit, wood, Weber grill, extra gas tank, chairs for 8, need I say more. We had a fantastic time and be booking for next year. Thank you!

Great little spot

This was this years yearly vacation destination. Perfect for our extended family of 9. We did bring a couple air mattresses, but plenty of space upstairs for those. The place was exactly as expected. The lake was great. John was very pleasant. Only complaint would be the sprinklers, a warning of them and timing would have been helpful. Wouldn't have gotten things wet if warned ahead of time.

Clean lake house, friendly owner

We stayed at Higgins Lake for a week, hoping for good sailing weather, and while the weather wasn't great, Higgins is a beautiful lake and the property where we stayed was very nice. Beds are comfortable, lots of seating for watching TV in the evenings. Kayaks are available for the days that are calm. Kitchen is well supplied. There are lots of hand towels, bath towels, and wash cloths. We brought our own sheets and beach towels, but it looked like those were also available. The owner, John, and his extended family live in the next few houses and are very easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our stay!

Peace and tranquility until the wee hours

We enjoy the peace and quiet of the lake until the wee hours of the morning which are party hours for our neighbors. That does get a bit annoying. We had also requested permission to bring our service dogs but did not get a response do did not inquire further but did notice that the neighbors had a dog with them.
