Nice place for a golf group
We had a wonderful time staying at this place with a big group of guys playing golf at Dream/Nightmare. It's not too far away and plenty of space for 16 guys to crash.

Log Cabin on Lake
The large log cabin home is located on a small lake southeast of Houghton Lake. It's in an area of nice homes located along the west side of East Twin Lake. The road is paved where the homes are, but are gravel getting to the area. We enjoyed watching the sunrises from the main deck and liked the Michigan shaped adirondack chairs. The home has a large open living room with fireplace, a well stocked kitchen, bathrooms on all three levels, and ample sleeping accommodations, many with views of the lake. There is a private bedroom on the main floor and in the upper loft area. The other beds are located in the loft area and in the lower level and are semi-private. The beds we slept in were comfortable. The main level opens to the driveway/street side of the home and the lower level opens to the fire pit and lake side of the home. The grounds are well kept and there is plenty of firewood for the fireplace and firepit. The water along the shoreline was full of vegetation, perhaps just the time of year. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great cabin!
We loved the cabin and the “up north” decor. Unfortunately our weather wasn’t great, but we made the best of it. When the sun finally came out we went to nearby Higgins lake. The beach at the cabin is not really that great for swimming, kids love to swim. Our golfers loved the area and played the nearby Dreams and Nightmare courses. We may return for a fall or winter trip.

Perfect Family Vacation Place
Viewed this home on VRBO and booked our family vacation right away. The owners communicated with me from the very beginning, all the way through the end of our stay. Their home is just as described and we had a wonderful time! Rented their pontoon boat for a couple of days, took out their canoe and paddle boat several times, as well. The lake access isn’t ideal for swimming because of the shallow depth and lily pads but we were able to swim from the pontoon in deeper water. The house inside is beautiful and so roomy. We had dinner several times on the outside deck and loved sitting at the fire pit near the water. We had a baby with us and he slept very well here. A few people went out on an ATV excursion and had a blast! You will not regret staying at this home and we all look forward to doing it again!

AH-MAZING TIME
Absolutely tranquil & peaceful, saw all of the nature: bullfrogs, toads, loon, blue heron, osprey, fish, salamander, red headed woodpeckers and their babies, dragonfly's etc. Had the best time cooking and grilling meals together and just relaxing and splashing in the lake. Clean everything you could need! Our second time just as great if not better than the first! Lovely owners.

Perfect Place!
We absolutely loved this cabin. It is very peaceful and secluded and great for fishing! The house has everything you could ever need and is very clean. The owner is very responsive and helpful. Loved all the decor and the hilarious signs throughout the home. We had the best time with our kids and grandson, who also just loved the place. I just can't say enough about how wonderful it is! We definitely want to go back.
