Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Markey Township

Second time staying at 4 Seasons Ranch to go fishing on Houghton Lake Very private, lots of woods, huge fire pit, game room, kitchen stocked well. Close to boat launches, bait and shops. Nice place to wind down with a walk through the woods, a game of corn hole, cooking dogs and burgers on the grill. Inside there are games, and a dart board. House is clean and beds are very comfortable. Debra is very easy to contact

Super responsive and very friendly, accommodating host! Location was perfectly located in Higgins lake area. Walkable neighborhood and trails across the street. Cabin has everything you would want or need for up-north getaway. Nice furniture and tv to relax after a day on the lake.

We had a very short stay here but it was great! The cabin was very clean and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area!

We had a wonderful stay Peaceful quiet Felt really at home and loved cash’ visits We will miss our second home in Michigan and will definitely come back

My husband and I, along with our 3 Siberian huskies stayed for 2 nights. We wished it was for longer! Jenna granted us an extra hr for check out which we really appreciated! Also, this house is incredibly clean. We were both impressed. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. Something to note: there’s about 3-5 ft of water before you get into “muck” and the lake is full of seaweed. We brought our paddle board and floated around. The water is very clear and it was actually quite beautiful to look at the fish and even the seaweed looked beautiful. There are some deeper parts that you could definitely avoid touching any weeds. But just something to note if you plan on swimming. Also, we didn’t explore the entire lake so not sure what the far half is like. SUNRISES ARE GORGEOUS HERE! I would book this place just to watch the sunrise. And lots of wildlife. I would think kids would really enjoy it! Turtles, geese, tons of fish, loons. Again, overall highly recommend

We came into town to stay for a few days to celebrate a birthday. the home was absolutely gorgeous, modern, and everything was carefully thought out. Anything you could need, they have thought of! The hosts were very communicative and the fact that we could bring the pups, really made this trip more fun. The only suggestion I have would be to possibly add a fence and a hot tub, then you have no reason to leave! 😉

Perfect for a fishermans getaway. A few minutes drive from multiple boat launches for Houghton lake. Tons of good restaurants also within a few minutes away. Family fare right around the corner for those that need to do some shopping for forgotten essentials, or those who want to pick up food to cook for themselves. The place was very clean, and comfortable environment. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. 10/10 would book again!

This home was amazing! Lots of comfortable living space and bedrooms. The pool room is awesome, back yard is beautiful, kitchen is stocked and clean. Would definitely stay here again!

The place was very clean, which is always my #1 priority. It was tastefully decorated. There was a musty smell, I’m sure caused by the concrete. We left the windows open and febreezed often and that seemed to help. The only thing I wasn’t happy with was the bed. The bed and pillows were not comfortable at all. I would stay here again, if there was a different mattress and pillows. The location was great for us! The traffic noise wasn’t a problem for us. We really enjoyed the short walk to the water! Very nice.

We really enjoyed staying at Fawn’s place!! This was a top tier place! She thought of everything and provided so many extras like snacks, an assortment of drinks and even chocolates on the pillows. The decor was very well done and it was so clean and comfortable. It was a great spot to stay as we explored some of north Michigan. We slept well and the surroundings were very peaceful and quiet. We would stay here again without any hesitation. Fawn was quick to answer questions and help in any way. We enjoyed staying here very much!!

This is a lovely condo. Super clean, lots of room, beautiful furnishings. Riley was responsive and so great when I had some pesky questions. He was gracious and responsive in the best way. This condo is a gem!

Wonderful place to stay off-season. Exactly what we were looking for. Very convenient and effortless check-in check-out.

A real "Gem" as the name says. We had a very nice time and the host and hostess went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. From check-in to the hugs at check-out, Monica made our stay very enjoyable. We would highly recommend staying at Grem's Gems cottage. We were sad to leave, felt like we were leaving our own family.

We had a great time staying at Juli and Corky’s place! Everything was so nice and the amenities were well thought out and very thoughtful! And Juli was great to talk to and super helpful and very pleasant. If I’m up here again I will definitely check availability of their homes!

Lauren’s place was perfect for us to stay at when we had a wedding weekend. She was responsive and we had no problems! Recommend!

We were thrilled to find a last minute cancellation at this hidden gem for our labor day weekend trip! Kathy's directions were very thorough. The best part was that she included the use of all of her water toys in the rental - there were two stand-up paddle boards, numerous kayaks and a big rectangular floating pad that the kids loved. The biggest island in the center of Spider Lake is a very doable paddle from there. This property faces north on the lake which is the perfect vantage point to see the Aurora Borealis if the conditions are right, which they were for our time! This has been on my bucket list, so I am beyond thrilled! The stars are amazing too! We all felt comfortable inside and my husband said he had one of the best sleeps he's had in a long time. The kids loved the loft beds. We just wish that the spiders of Spider Lake weren't so abundant on the docks, so our arachnophobic girls could relax more, but there's not much that could have been done about them.

Clean, comfortable, and easy access to the ski lifts and nearby towns. Friendly and helpful communication as well.

Very close to a quiet little beach. Nice quiet place to stay.

Beautiful, cozy and clean house! The quiet place and the amazing views make you feel like home.. We enjoyed so much the indoor pool! Thank you so much Julie and Navid for your attentions!

Amazing place, peaceful, beautiful surroundings and amazing view from the house. Troy was very friendly and responsive with our questions. For sure if I will be back to Traverse city I will contact Troy to stay his place. Thank you,

Fabulous place to call home for a few days for a conference being held at the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa. Holly was the consummate host, communicative and helpful with questions. If you are a golfer, you can't find a better spot.

Great place! We loved the lake and the lake views. I also loved that there was a beach and pontoon boat rentals were on-site!

This space was perfect for our week-long stay in Bellaire. It's the little details that make a big difference to me ... the thoughtful birthday note for our oldest, the coloring books left out for our youngest ... the coffee bar!! The condo had everything that we needed to make meals, do laundry throughout the week, and play games in the evening. It's also a very quiet area. One morning, we saw deer hanging out in the back! Chris is a friendly and responsive host. We would gladly return. Be sure to check out Short's Brewery, Mammoth Distillery, and The Iron Skillet right there in Bellaire!

We will definitely book this place again if we need to be close to the Grand Traverse Resort again. Its very clean, very comfortable, and the the views are really nice. It's just far away enough from downtown to be quiet and peaceful.
