North View Cabins #2 - Cozy 2Bed/1Ba Cabin with Private Deck on the Lake!

NOW BOOKING SUMMER 2026!

Welcome to North View Cabins on Houghton Lake! We have 3 cabins onsite; you can rent one or rent all 3 to accommodate your group.

Welcome to Cabin 2, where you can experience convenient waterfront access ...at an affordable price. This cabin features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, accommodating up to 4 guests.

Outside...Walk a few steps to reach the lake shore and dock. Cabin 2 features a private deck by the lake equipped with a cooler, chairs, and a table (available from Memorial weekend to Labor Day weekend). The swimming area has a sandy bottom, and your stay includes the use of paddle boards, kayaks, floats, a raft, and water toys. Cabin 2 has its own picnic table and small deck with a BBQ grill and chairs. It also has its own fire pit and complimentary firewood. Overnight mooring/anchoring available. Onsite parking can accommodate up to one small trailer and 1-2 vehicles; additional offsite trailer parking is available for larger trailers. *Please note docks will be removed on Oct 1, 2025.

Inside the cabin...The property features a living room with a large television and a fully furnished kitchen and dinette. Enjoy your morning coffee in the sunroom, where you can open all the windows to let in the cool breeze from the lake. The bathroom has a stand-up shower. The first bedroom has a queen bed and a TV, while the second bedroom has two twin "trundle" beds and a TV. Amenities include WiFi, board games, all linens (excluding beach towels), and starter coffee supplies.

In the area...The trailhead is located approximately 2.2 miles away, and you can legally drive your toys there. You can easily walk to grocery stores, bars, diners, and shops. Additionally, the DNR boat launch is close by, along with parks, beaches, golf courses, and historical landmarks.

Don't miss the Fall Colors on display September to October! Reds, oranges and golds reflecting off the water make a beautiful sight to see. Take a drive to a cider mill and hiking trails, then come back to enjoy a bonfire under a warm blanket.

Minimum night stay may vary depending on the time of year. Please call to see if we can do less than the listed minimum nights listed. See you soon at Cabin 2!---------

Pet fee $30/night for up to 2 dogs up to 50# each.
