Cozy Cottage by The Lakes

A cozy, yet contemporary house, tucked away in the woods, offering a peaceful getaway.
Higgins Lake and Houghton Lake are just minutes away, along with trails, parks, boating, paddling, fishing, golfing, hiking, and hunting.

Outdoors: A spacious front yard and secluded back yard. A fire pit , hammock, corn hole, picnic table, gas grill, and charcoal grill are available for use.

Pets: Pets are not allowed in the home.

Safety: Please note that there are steps into the home.

Bonfires: Should you wish to use the fire pit, new firewood is not readily provided, though there may be some available to use on the property and you are welcome to it. There are neighbors and nearby stores that send bundles for purchase. If you choose to have a fire, please be sure the fire is fully extinguished at the end of the evening.

Grilling: There is a grill on site. We request that it not be moved for safety. We provide grilling utensils in the kitchen. There may be a propane tank already installed, however, if it runs out we do not readily check/provide tanks. There are several nearby gas stations that will refill/provide a new tank if needed. If you need help with the tank install, please let us know! Also, please make sure to properly dispose of any grease.

Parking: There is parking available on the driveway, which fits 5-6 cars. Please note the home driveway is gravel and in Michigan winter months, may be snowy/icy. We’ve arranged for a snow plow the morning after snowfall and do provide salt/shovels, but please be aware of the potential hazard.

Dedicated workspace: A common area with wifi that’s well suited for working. Desk, chair, monitor, mouse, and keyboard provided.

TV: We have a 55in smart TV in the living room and a 55in TV in the master bedroom. Guests can watch whichever subscription service they already have (Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, etc.)

Please message us if there is excessive snow so we can work on a solution for removal.
