The Deer Cabin is only steps from the lake. It is almost twice the size of our other cabins and features 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a full kitchen with gas stove, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, drip coffee maker and enough cooking utensils, dishes and flatware to get you by. There is a larger dining table and two pull out couches and one of the most comfortable rocking chairs for you to relax in too.
We are a pet friendly resort, so please bring your furry friends along! There will be a fee of $25/pet/night charged for the stay of our furry friends.
1 GB of WiFi works all the way to the end of the dock, and there’s also Roku Television with Spectrum.
It also has a NEW live edge countertop, sink and backsplash! We also added new fans to each bedroom and do provide towels and linens for the beds now too!
Outside there is a picnic table, Weber Charcoal Grill, and a couple of chairs.
Shared amenities are the beach, dock, fire pit, kayaks, tetherball, shuffleboard, and a fish cleaning station. There is plenty of private parking right across the street for your vehicles and trailers.
The Houghton Lake area almost has too many things to mention. We are walking distance to the copper gazebo where the birdwatching and fishing are incredible. Swimming, boating (several places to rent pontoons), waterskiing, GOLF (many great courses in the immediate area), fishing, hiking, ORV’s are for rent right down the street (snowmobiles too), geocaching (one of the largest in the state), shopping, eating, kayaking, color tours, cross country skiing, sledding, and many, many more things to do here.

Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving
They are very nice owners to work with. We had a holiday dinner and family staying at their cabin. They let us check in early so family could be in time for the "before dinner" festivities. Thank you Tom and Lynette.

Non mi è piaciuto: Check-in, comunicazione, accuratezza dell’annuncio
Was not at all what the picture’s looked like, way over priced. Walked in and walked right back out. Would not give back a refund, Not even half, Stay away from here, there are far better places for the money they are asking for a one night stay, with no air and a bathroom that hasn’t been updated since 1990… If they would have worked with me, just gave me my money back sent me on my way,I would not have ever left this review…

Nightmare stay
We found bed bugs in the bed the night we arrived. We had to leave the next morning, back home to clean every single piece of clothing we had taken with us. We slept on a sofa, each worrying about bed bugs in the sofa. We put everything in a plastic trash bag and sealed it to sanitize at home.
