Waterfront Charmer!!!

Mere steps from deck to lake, from knotty pine walls to the warm Houghton Lake waters, this cozy, quaint 2 bedroom getaway is great for the long or short vacation.

Hunt, fish, water-ski, or enjoy the view.

Bring your own toys or you can rent boats from several different locations on the lake. Personal dock in season. Boat launch 3 doors down.

Houghton lake is one of the top fishing lakes in the state, including Crappie, Walleye, Bluegill, Perch, Pike, and Bass.

Outdoor grill to cook the fish and dine in comfortable outdoor seating around the fire or on deck.

Also close by are hiking, biking, motorcycle, utv, and quad trails.

Grassy lawn soft for bare feet.

Sandy swimming area that is shallow and great for families and small children at the end of the dock. Go for a walk down the seawall to experience the lake in a new way.

Across the street is a stocked party store which has hard pack ice cream. Many mom and pop restaurants line the lakeside streets.

TV, Firestick, WIFI, and DVD player.

Stand up shower.

Kitchen equipped with dishes, cookware, eating and grilling utensils.

Large back yard for playing with a Frisbee.

Air conditioned bedrooms!

In these historic times be safe to make for a deeply enjoyable time for you and your neighbors.

14 day notice required.
