WAIT! TAKE YOUR TIME TO READ THROUGH THIS, IT MAY BE A LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU. I never believed I could earn so much profit in a short period. I saw a review on a page about Mrs. Clarice Haynes and before then, I have never risked money doing anything online with anybody because I thought It was so unwise and never want to be cheated. But when I contacted her and she explained everything to me concerning NFT/Crypto trading and the profits I can make within a few weeks, I was convinced to give a trial. I took the risk and invested my first $1500 but to my greatest surprise, it amount to $8000 within a week I was so happy that I made my second investment from the first withdrawal. consistent winning has been the case since then. The best way I can show my appreciation is by recommending her to you all and the world at large. Mrs. Clarice Haynes is God sent to mankind. don't lose out on this opportunity, Contact her today and get started you will be glad you did.

This is our favorite bar and dining. We realized after tryin all the restaurants and bars in houghton lake , Prudenville, Higgins lake and Roscommon. We decided Back Door Salon is the only place that the food is different and delicious. And we love the bartenders also. Great service. And we will always recommend Back Door Saloon to all our friends and family and visitorsread more

We happened to get a flat tire and were stuck overnight in the area. This was the only place with the kitchen still open after 9pm (thank god!). We figured it would be typical bar food but holy wha….this place has a fantastic menu! I had the shrimp tacos of all things, and they were better here than at my favorite Mexican restaurant back home. We decided that we would take a trip back to the area for a weekend getaway or something and make sure we eat here at least once while we stay. Seriously great food. And we had a wonderful server!read more

Unfortunately we were overcharged $100 when we paid half cash and half credit card. I called the following week when I noticed the issue. Spoke with the manager and she looked into it and saw what had happened from being able to find our receipt. She stated she couldn’t refund us due to already charging us and would give gift card. I explained I was from out of town. She said she would call back and speak to her manager, I said if she cannot in the end refund I will take the gift card (I have family up here). She never returned a call and I’ve called up there twice both times them stating she’s busy and will call me back with absolutely no call back. Pretty disappointed.read more

Great food and employees. I wish the owners were more caring of the community though. Even with a good majority of their staff testing positive for Covid they are still trying to rush and open instead of shutting down to let the employees get much needed rest and back to health. They prioritize making money over the health of the community and the employees that make them money.read more

We usually love The Back Door Saloon, but we recently came for dinner. We ordered the Brussels Sprouts for an appetizer. It was awful! Never like we’ve had before. Next, we ordered the boneless wings. The wings were so overcooked, we could not cut them. They we served with celery sticks that looked ready for the garbage! 🤮. Very disappointing! The server was outstanding and made up for the horrible food!read more

We were visiting Houghton Lake this past week for a Mini Family Reunion/ Parent's 60th Wedding Anniversary. The weather was rainy and cold for June so it was difficult to find places for everybody to visit. The most accommodating restaurant we visited was the Backdoor Saloon. Morgan P. (I'm pretty sure that was our servers name and sorry if I'm wrong) did a great job! The outdoor seating was a perfect spot for our ever growing group and she handled everything so well. I believe she was originally told 8-10 and once the last of us showed up it was probably 30 plus. At least a handful of separate tabs and people moving all around.... and she kept up with us all. It's really difficult to find great or even good service lately (understandably) so thanks again and keep up the great work! We appreciate you!read more

Food and service were super good. We had the big bad wolf sandwich, fried pickle chips, and buffalo chicken wrap. However, the staff kept skipping our songs we paid for on the touch tunes jukebox. They were mild rock songs. Eventually turned the volume all the way down to 1. If you don’t want your paying customers to choose music, I recommend you don’t have that type of set up.read more
