It is a beautiful, well designed home and property. The scenery is spectacular and our accommodations were perfectly comfortable and pleasant. The hosts are great at communication and took care of our needs and questions promptly. The lake was perfect for relaxing by, kayaking, fishing and playing in. Highly recommend this property!

Why they chose this property

There is so much to do if you are active. There are a few state parks that are close (near Houghton and Higgins), there is hiking on the north side of Lake Saint Helen, there is boating, fishing, and swimming. You can even swim out front of the property. There are multiple trails if you like to four-wheel or snow mobile very close to the property.

What makes this property unique

This property has been completely remodeled down to the studs, electrical, and plumbing. It has a very large kitchen that is well equipped compared to most other vacation rentals we have stayed in. There is a lot to do nearby or relax on the property or water.
