This property was perfect in location and was everything we needed and besides that very cute. I had a technical issue or two trying to do as requested, but aside from that I am totally pleased and so are my family members who were with me!
Very well kept cabin with easy to follow instructions. Owner was very helpful with all questions and always accessible. Plenty of amenities to enjoy our stay.
We were only there for a weekend to be certified for scuba diving in Higgins Lake, so we didn’t have much free time, but we wish we could have stayed longer to use the kayaks.
We were able to roast hotdogs and smores at the firepit with the abundance of firewood and plenty of outdoor chairs available out back.
We loved our stay at this cottage. The owner was helpful and punctual answering any questions we had. The cottage was clean, well furnished with necessities and all the comforts of home and stocked with things to relax with. Games, book, puzzles, bonfire pit, we loved every minute. Short walk or bike ride to Sam o Set park, kids rode their bikes there (with us) and played on playground, swam, caught minnows. We even got to catch a sun set or two. We truly enjoyed our week together as a family here and would book again.
We stayed at the Holiday cottage for our annual family Higgins lake trip.
The location was just a short walk to the public beach and a park for children. There was ample space for parking, we had a nice fire pit with many chairs. The cottage was clean and accommodating. Very helpful with a toddler to have a washing machine in the cottage. We were happy to find a pack and play for our daughter. Many fans were in the place to cool down.
The neighbors were very welcoming as well and gave us some extra milk and fruits when they saw our little one. There were beach items ready for use which was so nice.
Very happy with our rental and the fact that our pup could come along.
