About this cottage rental

Come stay at our beautiful lakefront *the Crowned Shore Cottage* and enjoy all the local amenities! This family friendly cottage has 180 feet of lakefront directly on the lake and walkable to local stores & Pineview Highlands golf course, short drive to all the shopping and includes a dock to give you all the access to the beautiful Houghton Lake. The shoreline is shallow and rises up to a max of 4-5 feet at the end of the dock (about 100ft away!), young children can enjoy the sandy lakefront!

The Space:
With 180 feet of lakefront access and a large lawn, your family and friends can unwind and relax on this beautiful property. The DNR boat launch is just blocks away and you are welcome to use our dock to bring your boat during your stay! If you're here during the winter months the lake freezes over beautifully for snowmobiling or ice-fishing and there are ski venues and snowshoeing trails close by! The living area has a smart TV, sound bar and large sliding doors with a stunning view of the lake. The entire home has been recently renovated with updated finishings throughout. The kitchen has everything you need to get started including many small appliances like a Crock Pot, Keurig and drip coffee maker, toaster and blender. The bedrooms have full size closets in each one, as well as comfy beds to get some rest after a long day on the water. There is a washer and dryer available for you to use during your stay!

Guest Access:
The guests have access to the entire home, dock and yard but we have closed off the garage for owner use only. There is a large circular driveway that can accomodate 3-4 cars comfortably.

The Neighborhood:
The home is centrally located within walking distance to local shops. The majority of the area's shopping is around 1-2 miles away. The Pineview Highlands Golf Course is close-by as well as a movie theater, the boat launch and many local sites to see.

Other Things to Note:
We love pets, but ask that you leave them at home due to allergy restrictions of many guests.

Please stay out of the garage since it is for owner use only.

The fireplace is just for decoration, if you need to cozy up use the fire pit outside, but please make sure to clean up after yourselves!

Please no smoking in or on the property.

From mid-October to mid-May the grill, outdoor table and fire pit chairs are placed in storage to protect them from the winter elements.

Out of respect to our neighborhood, no parties are allowed and quiet time begins at 10pm.

Our cleaning staff needs time to clean up for our next guests so late checkouts will be charged a fee of $25. Please be mindful to follow the house rules, including loading the dishwasher otherwise an additional cleaning fee may apply.

Interaction with Guests:
We are easily accessible, if there are any issues please do not hesitate to reach out!

This is the second year our family has stayed at this home and we will be back! We also recommended this listing to friends planning to visit Houghton Lake. The house is absolutely beautiful and very functional for a larger group (we had 6 adults and 4 kids)! The host thinks of everything and is attentive to details, making sure the house is stocked with anything you might need for your stay. The outdoor space is perfect with a lovely dock, nice firepit, and good sized yard/patio! The lake is shallow for a long time and an ideal place for kids to swim and play. Excellent communication from the host both leading up to and during our stay. This property is for sure a 10/10!!

We enjoyed our stay despite the weather not cooperating for our hopes to ice fish. Sonia was very thoughtful and had everything you need and more. Loved all the windows to enjoy the view of the lake! Sonia also was very quick to respond and allowed us to check out a little later so we could leave when the roads were in better condition.
