This listing is for 1 (#114 Ruth) of the 2 charming Twin Cottages! They share a wooded 1/2 acre lot and an adjacent 55' lakefront lot with dock and mooring buoys! These twin cottages, named after the original owner's daughters (Ruth & Dorothy) also share 2 fire pits with Adirondack chairs, picnic tables at the beach, a charcoal grill & several kayaks. Each cottage has its own tabletop gas grill & picnic table. The twins have new decks attached to the cottages with convenient outdoor showers.

Ruth is a cozy 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage that has been freshened up from top to bottom. Ruth has 1 queen bedroom and 1 full-over-full bunk room (plus a sofa bed in the living room). It is suitable for 4 adults max & 2 children. Wifi, Roku TV, linens & some paper products are supplied - just bring your boat & beach towels!

No need to waste time at the boat launch on a daily basis. Instead, walk out onto our private dock and come and go as you please. Each cottage has its own mooring buoy. Higgins Lake is known for its sandy bottom with a very gradual depth drop, making it great for kids and adults alike. Enjoy one of the most beautiful lakes and Sunsets you will ever see.

The cottages are NON SMOKING of any kind.

The Twins are on the Northeast side of Higgins Lake (Sunset Side), located about 5 miles from Roscommon and 3 miles from I-75 exit 244. The cottages face the road end, but it's just a very short walk down the semi wooded lakefront lot to our private lakefront beach.

Thank you for your interest in our cottages. We look forward to seeing you.

Must be 25 years old to make a reservation - suitable for 4 adults max with 2 children. No pets are allowed unless both cottages are rented to the same group and approval has been given.

Owners prefer to rent both twin cottages to same group in peak season. June 13 - Mid Aug rent Sat to Sat. Also see listing for #112 Dot.

    Cute cottage, had everything we needed and was well stocked. The photos and listing implied it was on the water but it’s actually about a half block from the water. Wish we had known that but it still worked out with our boat. The “twin” cottage next door is literally right next to the cottage, so if you don’t rent it with a group you know, you will be close close neighbors. We were lucky and it was empty during our stay, but good to know in the future.Overall, this cottage met our needs for our vacation.

    My husband and I have stayed at The Ruth before and loved it. This year we brought some friends! Everyone is still talking about it. The Cottages are amazingly clean. Communication with the owner is perfect! And Higgins Lake… beautiful as always! Cannot wait for our next getaway at the lake!

    My husband and two older teenage kids spent the long Labor Day weekend at Ruth. What a great little place! We had a great time on the lake. Location is great! Cottage was clean and had the few little items to tide you over until you can get to the grocery. Rented a pontoon from B&B Marina (as always!). Great service and a fun day on the boat! We went to Grayling for dinner one nite at Ray's Brews Blues and BBQ. It was BUSY , but good service and yummy brisket! And, our time at Higgins Lake is never complete without a trip to Nibbles for ice cream! Never long enough, but had a great time nonetheless!

    This is a charming old cottage that has been updated very nicely. It still has the original knotty-pine paneling which I love. The owner had everything we could have possibly needed for our week at Higgins Lake. The best part is that there is private lake frontage that we shared with only one other cabin. The sunsets are spectacular from this viewpoint. I highly recommend this cottage; it’s a great value.

    We absolutely loved the Ruth Cottage! It was clean, quaint and updated with everything we needed. It was perfect. The dock, beach area and fire pit areas were fantastic! We enjoyed the peaceful nature of this property. Thoroughly enjoyed speaking with and getting to know Michelle and Glen. They are superb hosts! Thanks for sharing this amazing property with us. We will be back! D&P

    Charming little cabin, just a couple minutes walk to Higgins lake. Really enjoyed our stay. Michelle thought of everything! Great communication and very accommodating to our early arrival request. Cottage was very clean and towels were fresh and plentiful. Comfy bed. Kitchen had everything we needed. Location is very close to the North Higgins State Park boat launch.
