Great little place!!
What a great little place! Everything was as listed. Great running or biking trail nearby (around North State Park). Maybe 100 yards from Silver Dollar for meals. Adorable back yard with stream. Really good amenities (soaps, shampoos, etc.). Good wifi.

Just beautiful
We really loved this little cabin. It was perfect for the two of us. It is centrally located so easy access to both state parks. The owner just thought of every little thing to make our stay comfortable. Plus- the back yard is like a little fairy garden with a sweet creek running next to it and lights strung. Walkable neighborhood nearby and just a short walk to Higgins Lake. I highly recommend this one!

Lil Kim Cottage
Attention to every tiny detail! This cottage is quite spacious for a one bedroom. It was a perfect fit for us…a mother, daughter and grandson. Beautifully decorated and still had so much original charm from the vintage appliances to the massive antique sink in perfect condition. Everything you could need was at our fingertips from fans to heaters. We were greeted with a bottle of Rosé, the linens were top notch and the sofas were solid, comfortable and spacious. Water pressure was great and towels luxurious! She had magical outdoor lighting and anything else you could need was available in the shed…grill, beach chairs and floats, etc. Cottage was clean, offered books and games, plus Wi-Fi, with Netflix, & Amazon Prime. The owner was quick to respond and very kind. Wouldn’t have changed a thing and will most definitely book again in the future. Could see the lake from the front, nice short walk to Higgins. Amazing location close to pretty much everything. North beach right around the corner.

Higgin's Lake Getaway
We live in Northwestern Michigan and have a pontoon boat and we had never been to Higgin's Lake. The experience was great. Close to the State Park where we put the boat in. Nice neighborhood to walk in. We cooked out one night and had a fire. Later, firebugs!!!

Cozy cabin
My two daughters and myself enjoyed our stay in this cute, cozy cabin. We spent the days at North Higgins lake state park (minutes away) and spent our nights sitting by the fire. This house has everything you need for cooking and cleanup. The bed was super comfy! The girls slept on the oversized couch with no complaints. Jennifer even let us book a extra night because we didn’t want to go home! Definitely would recommend a stay here!

Awesome stay!
The cabin is beautiful and the owner was extremely friendly! They notified us with an issue while we were on our way up there and they immediately fixed the issue and kept in touch. It’s a great stay, unfortunately weather was not good for us so we could not enjoy the outside scenery but it’s still just as beautiful as the pictures! Would definitely stay again.

Wonderfully appointed cabin with a dreamy backyard
We really scored a gem in Higgins Lake with this stay. The house was wonderfully decorated and very comfortable. The sun room was a delight for mornings and reading late at night with the sounds of nature. The string light lit backyard was charming and a great setting to sip some wine at the end of the day.
Highly recommended place to stay! Jennifer was a great host and very communicative.
