About this house rental
Escape to your private Higgins Lakefront retreat—wake to glass-clear water at your own dock and shoreline with a gentle, sandy, gradual entry that’s perfect for kids, just 10 minutes (5 mi) from South Higgins Lake State Park!
Bring the crew for effortless lake days: sip coffee on the lakeside deck as the sun rises over the water, launch the kayaks from the shallows, drop anchor at your mooring buoy for the day, and gather around the lakeside fire pit as the sky turns pink. End the night listening to the lapping waves and planning tomorrow’s shoreline fun!
Perfect for families with kids, multi-generational groups, and remote workers who want true Higgins Lake waterfront in every season!
Step inside to an open-concept layout featuring a fully stocked kitchen with island seating, a large living room with sweeping lake views. Retreat to the expansive primary suite complete with a walk-in closet, or enjoy the convenience of a main-level laundry room and central air. Plush bed and bath linens, free Wi-Fi, and modern appliances ensure comfort from the moment you arrive
Four seasons of fun on Higgins Lake
Higgins Lake delivers beauty and adventure all year:
• Summer: Boat, tube, swim, and float the day away right from your own shoreline and dock. Launch at the nearby public ramps, then tie up at your mooring buoy when you return.
• Fall: Crisp-air hikes, color tours, and peaceful glass-calm mornings on the water.
• Winter: Plowed year-round access—bring your tip-ups for ice fishing, hit nearby ORV/snowmobile trails, and cozy up by the fireplace with hot cocoa after a day outside.
• Spring: Watch the ice go out, listen for loons, and enjoy quiet shoulder-season lake time.
Ski & XC day trips:
• XC Ski Headquarters: ~10 min (6.5 mi)
• Hanson Hills: ~30 min (24 mi)
• Treetops: ~60 min (52 mi)
• Caberfae Peaks: ~1 hr 15 min (68 mi)
The dock and boat mooring buoy are typically installed May 1–October 1 (weather dependent), giving you a beautiful summer and shoulder-season setup on the water.
Lakefront details (what to expect on the shore)
• Shoreline: 78’ of private, exclusive Higgins Lake frontage! Firm, pebbly entry that turns sandy a few steps out—great for wading, floating, and kids who like to play in the shallows, but not a traditional sand beach.
• Dock: Approx. 70’ dock (installed about May 1–October 1).
• Depth: About waist-deep at the end of the dock (varies with water levels).
• Boats: Tie your boat to the mooring buoy set in at least 36" of water (suitable for many deep-V drafts).
• Kids: Gentle depth drop-off makes it easy to swim and play right off the dock.
Great for families & remote workers
• Split-floor layout so kids can enjoy their own room and space.
• Work-from-lake friendly: high-speed cable Wi-Fi for work calls or remote school.
