Wonderful Stay at This Amazing Lake House!

We had a great long weekend at this property! Very roomy for 6 people and the lake access right out the door was incredible! The cottage was very well-appointed, immaculate, and comfy. Definitely worth the rental price and the owners were extremely kind and accommodating, a pleasure to interact with throughout the rental process. We will definitely be back to this cottage, and highly recommend it for a Houghton Lake getaway!

If it’s available BOOK IT!!!

Wonderful lake home with all the amenities felt like I was home but with a wonderful sunrise view on the lake. Dave was a great host offering his boat hoist for our pontoon and offered early check in as the house was available prior to stated check in, he was very responsive in his communication prior to arrival giving clear directions. Myself and my family enjoyed every minute of the stay. Will defiantly be on our list to stay again. You will have no regrets booking your stay here. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!

Fun getaway on the lake

We really enjoyed the cabin on the lake. There were 5 adults and 2 kids and had plenty of room for all. The cabin was well furnished with everything you needed. We brought our SXS'S and rode to the trails and rented a pontoon boat from HLM and cruised the lake. The kids enjoyed swimming right in front of the cabin. The cabin was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had 2 trucks and 2 trailers and a car which made parking a little tight but the owner told us a way to park and it worked out well. Everyone had a great time! We would definitely come again!

Beautiful and comfortable home, Houghton Lake is just not my favorite!

This is a clean, beautiful and comfortable cottage with everything you need to cook meals, have bonfires, and relax with you family. I appreciated the fans in every bedroom and the air conditioner in the smallest bedroom. The homeowners were easy and pleasant to communicate with. The cottage is 5 star, I could not in good conscience rate it lower. However, as someone who reads reviews to get details that aren't in listings, I do have to say that my girls like to swim, and we walked really far out and never got more than waist deep, and the bottom gets a bit mucky as you go out. The bottom near the dock is sandy and it's a pleasant area to float on a raft, toss a frisbee, etc.

We would love to have you return although I can't do much about Houghton Lake itself. I also appreciated your feedback regarding the dock ladder arrangement we have. Just today bought a nice 4-step dock system with a hand rail based upon your suggestion. You're welcome back anytime! Dave & Sally Vander Bent

Outstanding vacation

Dave and Sally have made this delightful cottage so comfortable, we all felt very relaxed and had so much fun. The cottage is very clean and stocked with everything that you need. We definitely over packed. The beach is nice for everyone to swim including my grandsons. We enjoyed a bonfire most every night and even had forks to make our smores. Even on the one day when it rained we had games and cards to play. The DVD player came in very helpful for our young grandsons. This was a vacation we didn't want to come home from and will never forget. I hope one day to rent from this wonderful cottage again. The house was everything we could ask for a home away from home. Also, Dave was very helpful with any questions I had prior to our vacation. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us. Barb Lange

Piece of paradise on the biggest inland lake in MI

I can’t say enough about how amazing this location is and how wonderful this cottage is. I’m so grateful that my family got to send a week here. We made so many memories. Dave and Sally are amazing hosts and the cottage is well stock to make anyones stay stress free. We had never been to Houghton Lake so it was a first for us. We enjoyed the days sitting on the banks and playing in the water. At night we played multiple games that are provided at the cottage. The kids loved kayaking around the lake as well.

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Dave Vander Bent

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
We purchased this cottage from our neighbor who lived across the street from us. After she lost her husband in 2009, she decided to sell it and offered it to us.

We've made quite a few updates and have made even more memories with our children and now grandchildren.

We would love to share this friends and will also rent to families who want to make fun memories like we have.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

This is great area to enjoy your family while fishing, playing in the water, tubing, skiing and camp fires at night.

Beds are comfortable and most have mattresses less than 3 years old

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

You are literally 30 steps from the shores of Houghton Lake and a more family friendly portion of the lake.
