Great family vacation!
Posted Aug. 8, 2024 on HomeAwayWe had a great time! Cabin was close to the lake and easy to walk to even with little kids. Host was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Cabin had everything we needed. We are looking to book again next summer.

Okay, has some things you should know
Posted Aug. 1, 2024 on HomeAwayPros: close to lake, decent outdoor space with grill, fire pit etc. House was clean.
Cons/Things you should know before booking:
1. Nasty Smell: it has a very musty smell. This is especially bad if windows are closed and air conditioning is on. They are attempting to address this with a lot of air fresheners, which really only add to the problem.
2.The shower: Tiny, micro, mini shower. Is virtually impossible to shave your legs. The water, hot and cold are mixed up and do not work well in the shower. It took forever to figure out how to get the water the right temperature and it’s hard not to either freeze yourself or burn yourself when you’re getting out and trying to turn the water off.
3. Uncomfortable furniture: The chair couch and the beds are not comfortable. Everything is very basic and bare minimum.
4. Bedroom Doors: Both bedrooms have barn doors that don’t close all the way, so if you’re a light sleeper, want kids to go to bed earlier then the adults it’s not ideal.
Overall, not terrible, but these are the things that would keep us from booking again.

Great place to stay
Posted Jul. 27, 2024 on HomeAwayThe cabins were very clean, bug free and had everything we needed to have a great family vacation. I will definitely be booking here again! The owners were very prompt if we needed something and we all had a great stay!

Simple cabin close to the lake
Posted Jul. 11, 2024 on HomeAwayFour adults (two couples) stayed here for three nights during our larger family reunion. Proximity to Higgins Lake (one block away) and the overall quiet nature and walkability of this neighborhood was a huge plus. The cabin itself is simple but mostly sufficient with a pretty solid array of kitchen tools, pans, and pots. The furniture, including beds, is comfortable. Loved having access to a grill, hammock, and outdoor seating.
One of the downsides was that the doors to the bedrooms were sliding doors that aren’t well installed. One is crooked and doesn’t even fully cover the door opening. This made it challenging to keep our dogs contained at times, but wasn’t a big deal otherwise.

Perfect for a Small Family Trip
Posted Jun. 12, 2024 on HomeAwayThe cabin was very cozy and just what we needed. The hot and cold in the kitchen were switched but the owner gave us a heads up and was very attentive to anything we needed. Definitely loved this stay and will come back in the future.

North Higgins Lake
Posted Jun. 8, 2024 on HomeAwayWe liked the area. It was easy to find and check in. We were not happy with the rental. It smelled like air fresheners, and I felt like they were trying to cover something up. The air fresheners are also not agreeable with allergies. Walking through the cabin was a little difficult because of the angle of the floor. It went up and down. The window screens did not fit the windows so we were afraid to open the windows to let in cool air. The water smelled like sulfur. The shower hot and cold faucets were on opposite sides i.e.: Hot was cold. Cold was hot. It would have been nice to have curtains on the side entry door, the bathroom, and bedrooms. I couldn’t wait to get out of there mainly because of the air freshener smells. We would not stay there again.

The perfect place for a family gathering
Posted Sep. 11, 2023 on HomeAwayWe used 5 of Jeremey’s Higgins Lake cabins and They exceeded our expectations! They are clean, updated and had everything we needed for our family weekend stay. The short stroll to the lake was such a bonus. We watched a gorgeous sunrise. All together the communication with him was prompt and he was happy to answer any & all questions through the process. Thanks for an amazing stay Jeremey! We are excited to come back for sure!!!
