About This Home
As of May 2024This classic Houghton lake cottage is excellently positioned on the Northeast side of the lake facing directly into the sunsets. The lake in this area has a wonderful sandy lake bottom and stays shallow rather far from shore providing a great swimming enviroment with speedboats and jet skis staying far from shore. The cabin has three bedrooms and 1 bath, a large family room with a stunning fireplace for a center piece, a kitchen, and a unique built in dinning table. There is a lakeside enclosed porch looking out over the lake. The lot is smaller making maintenance a snap. The cabin itself is fully functional, warm, cozy in its classic way. Houghton Lake is Michigan's largest inland lake by surface area. The lake has been a popular resort and vacation destination for 100 years. The lake is well known for its fishing and large portions of shallow sandy lake bottom. The lake is 2 hours from Lansing or Grand Rapids and less than 3 hours from Detroit. The area is a great central location to explore all of the Northern Lower Peninsula.
