Quiet on a beautiful lake
Cabins are small and rustic but very clean. Boats (small motors, kayaks and canoe) for use by guests allow a leisurely tour around the peaceful Otter Lake. Picnic table plus campfire ring right on the lakeshore. Cabins are about 30 minutes from Houghton/Hancock. Host is excellent; available but not intrusive. Will definitely visit again!

Incredibly beautiful location. The cabin we stayed in was small, but posed no problems, if anything it put another level of entertainment. The property is clean, well maintained, and managed perfectly by Christine the owner.
