Set directly on Houghton Lake with a private boat dock, this three-star Houghton Lake hotel combines 10000 square feet of conference space with a multi-level indoor water park featuring a three-story slide, pools, and lazy river. Lakeside Resort & Conference Center houses four room types, including a two-level honeymoon suite with a canopy bed and heart-shaped jacuzzi, plus double queen suites with sofa beds. The Lakeside Bar and Grille serves seafood and steaks from a screened lakeside patio, while a complimentary breakfast buffet offers hot waffles, eggs, and fresh fruit daily. Family-friendly amenities include adult and children's hot tubs, a kids' pool, arcade, and free water park access for four guests per room.

Pros

“This Houghton Lake property emphasizes its family-friendly atmosphere, anchored by its indoor water park and private beach. While primarily a leisure destination, the conference facilities also position it as a functional venue for business gatherings. I think the variety of suites, including honeymoon options, gives it broader appeal beyond typical resorts.”
