Cute and cozy cottage

We enjoyed our stay. Close to the heart of town but none of the excess traffic that comes with it. A lot of small items included for the deck and in the kitchen and bathroom. The back deck is a really nice area to relax on and we were able to accommodate a family of six. The only negatives from our trip stem from the weak internet signal in the home and not having AC. To be fair, it was a very hot weekend and there are several fans available in the home. We made the most of those negatives however and still had a very nice trip. We would book again when we come back to the area.

Cute Little Cabin

This cabin was decorated SO adorable and had everything we needed and more!! The renters were very prompt with all communication! Location to Houghton Lake was just across ( the main ) road. The heating is not ideal, as the vent blows into the living space only. So when the heat is on, you were literally sweating while trying to watch a movie or playing a game. But if you shut the bedroom doors/bathroom door it is very chilly. Please keep in mind we only kept the heat at 66°. The room with the queen bed, was where my husband and I slept. The mattress is VERY firm. Just not what we are used to, but if you prefer a firm mattress, it will be perfect for you! Location was not ideal. Yes just a quick walk across the street to the lake, but it is located across the street from a business that constructs sheds. If sleeping in is for you, you might want to consider a different rental property. They begin their work, even on Saturday mornings, by 8 AM or earlier. Other than these issues, like I mentioned, this was a very well taken care of, adorably decorated, clean rental property!
