The property was well designed, offering ample space for many people, while proving many amenities to make it very comfortable.  The three separate bedrooms and bathrooms were a huge plus.  The large dining table was a great gathering place that offered a wonderful view of the lake. The outside deck was a peaceful place to relax. It was a nice place!

Family Getaway

House was great, very well stocked. We had 4 generations in the house with an age range of 8-88. It was accommodating and comfortable for everyone. We loved the concrete patio and chairs around the built in fire pit. It was nice that there were grill options and the big grate on the fire, we cooked dinner there one of the nights. Would definitely consider this property for future stays.

A place for Family Fun!

Roomy! We were a family of six and had plenty of room, plenty of bathrooms and a lovely outdoor space with a fire pit. Convenient location to grocery stores, restaurants, The Pines Theater as well as a walkable neighborhood nearby. We rented a pontoon boat and the dock had a prepped spot to safely tie up to.

Great Getaway!

I almost don’t want to leave an amazing review because I want to be able to come back and it not be booked up! This place is amazing! The pictures don’t do the house and lake justice. The owners have thought of everything in the design to the little touches! Will definitely be booking again!

Changes in Latitude is 5 stars!

We were in Houghton Lake for my mother-in-law’s funeral. This place was so beautiful and it was such a comfort for my husband and I and our children to have such a beautiful and comfortable place to stay during this stressful time. Everything was top notch. Cannot say enough about our experience and the hosts!

Fantastic Property, Thought of everything!

We stayed here a few days after the refrigerator went out at our original rental. Man, I wish this was available for our entire vacation, just a wonderful rental. We will be keeping an eye on it for 2024 in the hopes we get lucky enough to stay here again. Neighbor was very friendly, view was great, plenty of room for a big crew and the Smore station was a nice addition even though we didn't partake!
