Why Paul Fantuzzi chose Houghton Lake

We had decided to purchase a home on Houghton Lake because of it's size and clean, clear water.

We also wanted the space of a large lot and wanted a very peaceful area.

This home fit all of this!!!

What makes this house unique

Great walleye fishing in Michigan's largest inland lake! The water is warm,shallow and sandy bottom in front of home. Ice fishing and snowmobiling is terrific also. Home of 'tip up town' winter carnival. Great sandbar in water across lake from home. Not an outdated old cabin but a very nice home that is very ' lodge like'.

Notes: Peaceful and private street, with great lake views. Great fishing! SAND BEACH UPDATED 2010 Known for one of the best walleye lakes in the state. The lake is 20 miles of shore line and 8 miles across, largest inland lake in Michigan. Many sandbars to beach your boat on and wade in very warm waters. A sandy bottom is in most areas of lake but our area is very sandy and shallow and down right hot water in mid season!! A 20 x 50 area of beach sand is sitting in front of seawall with a boardwalk adjacient to lake for sun sitting or playing in sand. Update: **** everyone loved the sand beach this year!!!!!

Beautiful home

5 of 5
Submitted: October 10, 2011 Stayed: October 2011
This is a beautiful home, which was very clean and well maintained, I would recommend this home to everyone,but sort of want to keep all to myself. Everything was detailed,and the instructions were very easy to follow and posted everwhere,so you never had to second guess. The sunset is breathtaking. Can't wait to rent again.
