Check-out instructions
The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Strip any used beds and gather used towels
Remove personal items and take out the rubbish
Turn off the lights and lock the doors
Please strip any used beds but leave the linens on the beds. This way our cleaner knows what was used and can check for anything that may need to be pretreated before washing.
Please lock all doors, make sure all windows are closed and leave all fans and ac units on and take any trash to the bin outside. Used towels should be left in the bathtub.
Please message the host when you leave. If you depart early, our cleaners can get a headstart to prepare for our next guest.

About the host
Hosted by Kaylan Field
I live in Fenton but love the Houghton Lake area! We enjoy riding our ORVs as much as we enjoy the water, so this place is great for us.
Why they chose this property
Being able to ride to the trails right from the house and having the lake so close really sold me.
What makes this property unique
Being able to ride to the trails directly from the house while still being so close to the water, nice fire pit and the trail through the backyard are my favorite features.
