Listing Information:
Lady Slipper Lake House is only 500 feet from Higgins Lake! We share a seasonal dock with other owners on Lady Slipper Lane, but no overnight moorage is allowed. In the summer you can use the dock to access the lake to swim, fish, and other water based activities. In the evening, fire up the gas grill, grab a glass of wine and enjoy a campfire in the backyard with our fire pit,six adirondack chairs and picnic table. In the winter, it is just a stone's throw away to enjoy ice fishing and snowmobiling on Higgins Lake.

Lady Slipper Lake House is located 2 miles from South Higgins Lake State Park where you can launch your boat in the summer and 1.8 miles from the Cross Country Ski Headquarters from wintertime cross country skiing. We are located an hour and a half from Mackinaw City and Harbor Springs, the start of Michigan's Tunnel of Trees. It's only a few minutes to state land for hunting, or to enjoy hiking trails around Marl Lake. Within a 30 minute drive you can reach the beautiful old growth forest of Hartwick Pines State Park, and as well as world class trout fishing on the Ausable River. Boyne Mountain resort for winter skiing and tubing is one hour away as well.

There are two bedrooms and and one full bathroom (shower only). We can accomodate 6 guests with one queen bed, one full bed, and two twin beds. The bedrooms were just renovated and one bedroom has a queen bed and the second bedroom has a set of twin bunk beds and a full size bed. If you need to work remotely there is also a desk in the bedroom with the queen bed. The house is cooled in the summer by window units (living room and bedrooms) and heated in the winter by a forced air furnace. Additionally, there are wall heaters in the bedrooms to make sure you are warm and cozy on cold Michigan winter nights.

Pets are welcome for a fee, but you must include them in the VRBO reservation.

We offer free Wi-Fi to our guests and a smart television so that you can access your Netflix or other streaming accounts. Live TV is available through our smart TV's Youtube TV”app.

The kitchen is stocked with dishes, glassware, pots/pans, silverware, dishtowels, dish soap, sponges, paper towels, and various cleaning supplies. Toilet paper, shampoo, soap, hairdryer, towels, and washcloths are also provided. As an extra convenience, we offer a complimentary coffee and tea bar.

    Last minute we decided to get away. We were able to book this for the weekend without any trouble. We brought our two goldens with us and had a great time. Higgins Lake is a special place I had not heard of before our stay. We fell in love and will be back. The lake house was very clean and equipped with everything you might need. I highly suggest taking a long walk around the neighborhood and down to the lake. It is beautiful! Overall, I would stay here again, and I would recommend this place to a friend.

    The property was exactly as described in the listing. Check in and check out policies were really clear and easy to follow, and the cabin itself is super cute! All the benefits of a rustic woodsy getaway with some thoughtful creature comforts like great internet and streaming available. The host, Melanie, is a great communicator and had some excellent recommendations for local attractions!

    We were disappointed that there would be no place to anchor our boat overnight so we would spend way too much time and aggravation launching it every morning and putting it back on the trailer from 10 pm to 8 am the next day. Too much work, and lots of time waiting at the boat launch. This property IS NOT waterfront as in the vrbo listing. It is Lake Access daytime, but never is LAKEFRONT, or the boat could be anchored off the property overnight.

    The cabin was great for us, my husband and teen daughter and our two dogs. The layout of the cabin was fantastic and the outdoor space was magical!!! We walked down the street to the dock and enjoyed the view in the evening. It is great for swimming. The cabin was easy to find and close to a market for supplies. The neighbors were very friendly. We enjoyed cooking out and a fire in the evenings. We can't wait to visit again.

    Our stay at the Lady Slipper Lakehouse was amazing. The house was located only a short distance down a peaceful road to the lake. It was nice to walk past the other cottages as we approached the fresh morning beauty of the lake. The house itself had everything we could need with all kitchen and home amenities. Our young girls loved sharing the spacious room with two separate beds in it. The property was perfect including a nice backyard firepit area complete with a bundle of wood on the house. We were so happy to bring our dog to enjoy the vacation with us and are grateful for that. Exploring the area led us to South and North Higgins State Park which had great beaches for us and the dog to enjoy. We also visited the model train museum, the Roscommon Zoo and the Gahagan Nature Preserve. All in all an amazing trip, thank you Melanie and Matt for letting us stay at your home.
