Lake access cottage near Houghton Lake
Absolutely flawless stay at nothing fancy Very clean and roomy. We will be back for sure.
Super friendly host. Great fishing too!
As the name states, its nothing fancy, but it fits 4 people just fine and the host is great. Clean place, and has laundry too so that's nice.
Friendly, everything we needed, fun fishing and clean.
We stayed for a golf weekend and it was perfect, great location to food, and restaurants. Close to the lake and golf. We caught a few fish on the boats they provided.
Very nice Owner, place was cute and clean. would stay again!
Owner is wonderful and she gives the renters privacy.
We stayed for 2 weeks! Kim, the owner and host, was wonderful. The cottage was very clean and well stocked with everything we could possibly need. When I was looking to rent a place for 2 weeks, I was shocked at the prices on Houghton and Higgins lake. The Nothing Fancy house is affordable and a true cottage (with A/C) in the woods. There was ample parking for the many guest we had visiting. I am already booking again for September and possibly after the New Year.
There was plenty of room and the host was easy to communicate with
Our group consisted of Mom, dad, 5 kids age range from 20 to 27. We had the best time here! Kim and her husband were both amazing folks, Kim stopped by to see if we needed anything. Her husband taught our son how to do the spoon fish method. We loved the barn house, the property is perfect and shaded and on the water. We fished, we rode the local trails on our dual sport bikes, we kayaked, we bbq'd, we had nightly bonfires, roasted hot dogs and made smores. We walked the trails on the property and we were very close to town, restaurant's, public Houghton Lake access and all the major stores!! We will be back!!
Kim,Bill &Chris They are good people to know, they are there to help with anything. This are second stay and won't be our last.
We enjoyed our short stay, the cabin was clean and comfortable and the hosts are very nice.
After booking the property, Kim gave me her number to reach out for any questions. A few days before check in i reached out, she answered any questions. She even sent me more photos than what were listed in the listing!. On check in day, she let me know the check in process which I relayed to my group. My dad and his wife arrived first and she introduced herself and gave the ins and outs of the property which my dad relayed that info to the rest of the group when we arrived. The house is extremely cute and cozy. Kim even turned the air on for us prior to arrival so it is cool inside. Kim lives in the home next door and was always there if we needed anything (wasn’t overbearing or nosey like some hosts can be when they live next to the property). We even found a phone in the river on our canoe trip and she brought over a bag of rice for us to dry the phone out! The river the barn was on is a fishing river but the kids and their parents went on the paddle boat and row boat to go fishing. The kids even jumped in the water to swim! There was nearly everything you need to stay in a home away from home (condiments, seasonings, extra towels, shampoo/conditioner/soap etc.). The home is very warm and inviting. I loved the cabin feel it had too! Definitely recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a cute cozy place to stay that’s near Houghton or Higgins Lake.
It was a wonderful experience. I would definitely go again.
It was easy to find. No problems with the Cottage or surrounding area. Very friendly property managers. Had a great time, campfires at night. Outside to grill, ca.pfire pit, and lots of woods with trails.
Kim has always been an amazing host. The home has everything you will need for your stay. It's peaceful, relaxing stay and the home is very clean.
Bill,Kim and Chris were amazing to us and we are leaving like we are part of the family! Best by far.
Wonderful!
Nice area. Property was clean and inviting. perfect location to trails to ride our RZRs. Only issue was only one bathroom and it was on second floor. Will hopefully get back there soon.
