Learn more about Houghton Lake

Cast a line for trophy walleye on Michigan's largest inland lake, where fishing stories grow as tall as the surrounding pines. Quest Golf Club offers fairways with forest views when you're ready for dry land adventures. Winter transforms this budget-friendly paradise into Tip Up Town USA, America's largest winter carnival complete with ice fishing competitions and snowmobile races across the frozen expanse. Families return generation after generation for simple pleasures - swimming from sandy beaches, pontoon cruises at sunset, and fresh perch dinners at lakeside taverns. The unassuming main drag reveals bait shops where locals freely share their secret fishing spots - though perhaps not their very best ones.
