Great Place!

We had a great time! The kids loved the pond with the fish and the frogs and loved feeding them each day. It’s super close to both Higgins and Houghton lake and was perfect for our day trips to the lake! Would for sure stay there again!

Just as listed!

We had a group of 8 adults for a 2 week stay. There was plenty of room in the driveway for all the vehicles and our 24 ft boat. All the amenities of home are provided for a comfortable stay. The loft got quite warm on the hot Summer days, however, we utilized the fans provided to stay cool. Definitely will be booking again!

Winter getaway

We had a great stay at great oaks cottage. It was the perfect size for our two families, had all the necessities, and lots of extras like the hot tub, games, wood burning stove, grill, and sleds for our use. Bedrooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. We appreciated the quick communication and easy checkin/check out process. Overall the perfect spot for a winter getaway! Thanks

Great house and amenities!

Had such a great time at this wonderful establishment for the weekend with friends. House is convenient whether coming from 127 or I-75. This house had so much room, three bathrooms, and plenty of parking. We cooked all weekend using the well stocked kitchen and the gas grill. A cozy fire in the wood burner created a great setting for spending time with friends on a cold weekend. And it doesn’t get better than ending your night in the hot tub! Laura was a great host and wonderful at communicating. Highly recommend this rental!

Fabulous up north getaway!

We needed a house for several generations for a family wedding. This house did not disappoint! It has plenty of beds for everyone, big kitchen for those fun family dinners, multiple bathrooms so everyone can shower without getting in each other’s way, the most incredible koi pond (which was a big hit with all ages!), a beautiful fire pit area, 2 huge living spaces (comfy massive sectional that I wanted to take home!) and blackout curtains for the kid rooms that I greatly appreciated. It was one of my favorite vaca houses yet!
