  • A separate $100.00 check/or cash is collected and held as housekeeping and security during your stay at Oak Beach Resort. PLEASE SEND IT WITH YOUR FINAL PAYMENT which is due 3 weeks before your arrival date. If you do not want to clean, the $100 turns into a cleaning fee. Please let us know your preference. If the cottage is left dirty, we assume your decision.
  • Guests are responsible for leaving cottages in the clean condition they found upon check-in.
  • Cabins will be checked and disinfected between each rental.
  • Other arrangements for upkeep may be made before check-in. Ask Brenda for anything that you need!

    Oak Beach Resort Office

    111 State St. Houghton Lake, MI 48629

    Final Balance is due 3 weeks before your stay, including the separate $100 Housekeeping/damage deposit per cabin for summer rental. This ensures that you will be able to drive up to your cottage, begin unpacking and begin your vacation ASAP!

    Daily rental will be arranged differently. Payment may be made by certified check, cash or personal check (if sent in 3 weeks in advanced or preapproved). Your uncashed damage deposit will be returned to you after confirmation of cottage condition, or you may apply it to the next year’s registration.

    Visitor Policy

    • Visitors are welcome. Please send in your visitor plans with your payment in full. VISITORS WHO RENT OTHER ACCOMODATIONS IN THE AREA DO NOT HAVE BEACH PRIVILEGES. After all, Oak Beach pays the higher taxes for the lake front and no one wants an overcrowded beach.
    • Visitors may stay overnight provided the sleeping capacity of the cottage is not exceeded.
    • Exceeding Cottage capacity with tents and campers is not allowed. (or no one would rent a cottage, right?)
