The Blue Anchor at Houghton Lake

All in all, great stay! I would come back! The shower is a little short! I’m 5’3 and my head almost hit it. There isn’t any where to eat besides the bed but aside from that we had a good time! Everything was clean and the host was responsive. Super easy check in!

Thank you for sharing your room/place with us. It was a perfect stop on our road trip. Lots to see/do nearby. Great food, shops, the lake and golfing! Very enjoyable!

Very kind host, always responded very quickly and kindly! Would recommend this cute and quiet place to anyone looking for a weekend vacay, couples time, or anyone in the area looking to stay for a quick work trip!

Everything was as expected and Karter Ann was very helpful and great with communicating and checking in. It was very clean and had all the basics. The only complaint that I would have is the bathroom is really small, the shower temp was hard to get just right and hardly had any pressure.

Perfect for an active day and then a place to lay your head to get up and have fun in the area ! Thank you for your responsive communication- clean today space and warming feel!

Our stay was a quick trip on our way to our final destination. We were only there one night. This space appears to be a nicely remodeled motel. I was quite happy when we arrived and it was exactly as the pictures showed. The room was spacious and clean. I loved that the floors were not carpeted. The beds were extremely comfortable. The lake/beach décor was very nice. It was easy to relax and sleep in this quiet town with the nice accommodations.

I wish I could have stayed longer to discover more of the area. I stayed one night, room#4, during a moto trip around the Mitten and Upper Peninsula. Perfect for a solo (or couple) stay. The property was everything described in writing and through photographs. Several good food option nearby as well. The host was awesome. Their communication was fast and friendly. They also messaged me to let me know room was ready early in case I was nearby and wanted to check in.

This place is beautiful and exactly as described! The beds are SUPER comfy and there was so much space for the kids to spread out and the adults have their own space! The kitchen is big and we had lots of space and kitchenware to cook! Karter Ann always replied to messages quickly and is so kind! Definitely recommend this house and you cannot beat the location! Definitely a favorite stay of ours now!

Karter Ann was a wonderful host. I rented the home for family while they were in town for my father’s funeral. She was very accommodating and responsive. The place was perfect for a large family. We will definitely be booking again.

Super clean and cozy place to stay. We were passing through and glad we chose this place to stay for the night. Very responsive and we can’t wait to come back. 10/10
