The weather was perfect and very few bugs/mosquitoes so I was very happy. Everything you could possibly need was on site and the garage would be a child's dream with all the games and activities there. Over all the house and boat were awesome (ride out to the lake can be a challenge (we had an extendable 8ft plastic gaff with us) wich made it much easier.

Communication with Joe, the owner, was easy and everything was well organized. Randy met us at the house shortly after arrival to explain the rules for the pontoon and how to operate it - he even went out of his way to drive my husband to the boat ramp to drop off our fishing boat.

We are so impress with Houghton Cove property that our family stayed at. This property was very clean, quiet and so much games for our grand children to play in the play room. Even though we have 2 days with bad weather, rain and high winds. But we have the last 3 days with very nice weather. We took a pontoon to cruise around the Houghton Lake, took many pictures and stop couple spots to swim. Make our comments short. We would highly recommend this Houghton Cove property to anyone if you planning to visit Houghton Lake. You will not regret for anything around this property. Our family has so much memories and fun’s during our stay at Houghton Cove. Will be back in next year without a second thoughts…. ##### Nancy N.

My family and I had a great stay at Houghton's Cove! The house is spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. It was so convenient to have the pontoon right there, we were able to go boating at our leisure. And the variety of games plus the firepit called for nice evenings together after boating. Such a great house and great location! ##### Rita S.

We had all ages including small children, teens and adults and there was plenty to keep us busy for 4th of July. We didn’t feel crowded and the extra space in the sunrooms was perfect. The pontoon was a blast as well as the kayaks, canoes and paddle boards made for a fun trip down the canal to Houghton Lake. Thank you so much for hosting this awesome home! ##### Stephanie P.
