My sister and I loved this weekend getaway to Higgins lake staying here right on the lake, just wished for better weather. The Host Anna and Juan were very informative and communicated with me, they even provided a list of amenities available at the house so we were prepared and we will definitely be back next year too!

We had such a wonderful stay on the lake in this very comfortable home. The yard and lake toys were perfect. The home clean, well stocked and better than pictured. Communication with the host was amazing, fast reply and so very helpful. If we make it back to Higgins I would not want to stay anywhere else.

Fun on Higgins Lake

We really enjoyed the location and amenities of this property! Close to some great hiking spots and ice cream shops, and the lake itself is beautiful. The game table was especially fun for the kids on rainy days, and our entire family enjoyed the SUPs.

Higgins Lake Cottage.

Overall, 4 star rental and would rent again. Great location. Only negatives: 1) the kitchen had to be cleaned upon our arrival; and 2) the yard needed mowed.

Dear Gregg, Thank you for your comments, we appreciate that you enjoyed the house and the location right at the lake! We will contact you by private message as we are interested in understanding what was not up to standards in the kitchen to review the cleaning routine. We also apologize about the grass not being mowed yet. We have a contract to have it done on Fridays. We will contact them to make sure no cuts get missed. Thank you again for your feedback.

We loved staying here. There is so many things in the house that you dont have to pack much. We wish there were kitchen towels, batteries to replace in the remotes and it would be nice to have more then 1 tv, but everything else was fantastic. Our kids loved the indoor and outdoor toys. We will definitely look into booking again. Communication was great as well. Thanks for a great stay!

Vacation

The owners of this property thought of everything to make our week stay so incredible. The cleanliness of the cabin , the beautiful little beach, the kayak, paddleboat and little things like toys for the kids made our vacation wonderful. We are definitely going to book again. Higgins Lake is a spectacular beautiful lake and it was so hard to leave. Ruth and Jim S.

Very nice stay

We had a great time staying at this property. We were able to bring a small boat and were allowed to use the boat lift at the dock, which was very convenient, especially since we had heavy winds and fairly large waves. The property outside nicely maintained, firewood was well-stocked, and the grill worked very well. We had a great weekend and even were lucky enough to see the northern lights over the lake.

A great time was had by all!

We had a women's week at the cottage, and had a great time. The location is great, and the place had everything we needed. The AC was not an issue for us, lots of windows and fans. The view of the lake and Treasure Island is gorgeous. The South Higgins State Park nearby was excellent.
