"Nice hotel, wonderful work staff just a couple pet peeves. The linen smelled like fabric softener. The balcony sliding door has no screen so you can’t leave the door open without bugs coming in. Skipped the breakfast all carbs."
Family Friendly Lake View Home. Only steps away from Houghton Lake.
10/10 Excellent
"Very nice little place. Everything you could think of was provided, from coffee pods to lots of towels. The fenced in back yard was great for the dog - no worries about her getting out."
"We only stayed for one night, so we did not get a chance to experience all of the amenities. Unfortunately, we ran into several issues during our stay.
On Saturday evening around 6:00 PM, we went to the restaurant and were given menus. After a few minutes, we were ready to order, but when the waitress returned, she apologized and told us they were out of everything on the menu. The only option available was the buffet, which was $40 per person.
Our room was a decent size, but it had a very strong mildew smell. We turned on the streaming TV for our son, but the WiFi went out after about 30 minutes. Since we had no cell reception with either Verizon or AT&T, we were unable to call anyone to report the issue.
We also had a problem with the hot water. After letting it run for about 10 minutes, it went from ice cold to barely warm and never improved. As a result, our showers were quick and cold. We checked again early the next morning, and the water situation was the same.
That said, I do think this place has potential, and I may consider giving it another try in the future. The rates were reasonable, and the property seemed like it had a lot to offer. Maybe we just had bad luck during this stay."
"The property itself is nice-small footprint on the lake, but still very enjoyable. The downside was that it didn’t seem like anything had been prepared before our arrival. The yard leading to the beach hadn’t been mowed and looked untouched since winter. There were tools in the shed, so we spent the first couple of hours cleaning things up ourselves, which wasn’t how I planned to start the trip.When we first entered the house, there were dead bugs on the floor near the entrance, and the place had a musty, closed-up smell, as if it hadn’t been aired out in quite some time. Opening windows helped, but many of the vinyl blinds were already deteriorated (broken) from sun exposure. I took photos before touching anything so there wouldn’t be any confusion about damage. It would really help if the listing mentioned issues like that upfront—otherwise renters worry they’ll be charged for things that were already in poor condition.We also had to turn on the well ourselves to get water, which would’ve been good to know ahead of time.On the positive side, the house itself is nice and the bed was great. We did find a mouse dropping on the table, which wasn’t ideal, but we just adjusted how we stored our food. I also avoided using the Keurig because when I removed the water reservoir, there was green growth inside. I didn’t feel it was my responsibility to clean that, so I left it for the cleaning staff.Overall, this could be a great place with a bit more attention and upkeep."
