Bring the boat along or rent from one of the numerous boat rental companies! Located a short walk to Houghton Lake, this home provides direct access to the lake through the twisting Cut River.

You and your fellow guests will create unforgettable memories cruising the lake's surface, fishing for Largemouth Bass, and swimming in the clear, refreshing water. Plus, you'll enjoy easy boat storage on the property's seawall.

In the winter, pack your snow toys including snowmobiles and sleds to fully enjoy the frozen Michigan landscape! You'll love exploring the surrounding area on over a hundred miles of trails located directly off of the home's doorstep.

    Very clean. Comfortable. Having to use the fuse box to use the kitchen was a little troubling.

    We had a great stay. On Saturday and Sunday, we made a nice breakfast in the morning in the fully equipped kitchen. Then we went cross country skiing into the afternoon. Then we came back to the rental to relax and watch the football all the way into the night. Most rentals don't have cable TV (only smart tv.) It was extremely nice and easy to be able to turn on the TV and flip to the games without having to deal with streaming madness. Please don't get rid of cable.

    We needed a place to stay following a wedding close by. Place was clean, easy to access, and communication was great.

    The house has a great layout as the master bedroom and the other two are on opposite sides. It is super clean and cozy! The only reason it is not 5 stars is because of no AC and while that doesn't make this a bad choice, 5 to me as a rating means it has all the bells and whistles. I would stay again and if no AC in the summer is not a deal breaker for you, this is a great, quiet area.

    We enjoyed this property a lot! It’s in a quiet small neighborhood right on the Cut River which was similar to a canal. We rented a pontoon for two days and we’re able to park it on the sea wall at the property. The house was clean and comfy and had everything we needed for the three-day stay.

    While there were some snags at the beginning of our stay, the owners worked hard to fix them. The only other snag was struggles with the fireplace. It was a quiet & serene setting, lovely sunsets and lots of wildlife!
