Great sleeper

Lots of bed space and very comfortable mattresses. This is a family lake cottage that they open up to renters. Houghton Lake is a great water activity lake. This was the best place we found on VRBO to have the 4 adults in our family stay in and attend a family reunion nearby.

Golf team 2 night stay

It was well appointed with dishes and other kitchen essentials. They even had spices from previous guests which helps. The only thing I would suggest is that they invest in some cheap frying pans and sheet pans and throw the other ones out. It was hard to cook in them and even harder to clean them.

Great place!

Loved the water. Perfect for families with small children. Had a blast "walking" across the lake. We went for the ATV trails and they did not disappoint. The entire weekend was awesome. Other than a few minor things that were broken before we got there, the home worked well for us. Would stay again.
