The Houghton Lake Area Tourism Bureau has been placing caches for many years. One travel bug has gone nearly 7,000 miles and has been placed in Germany. There are more than 1,000 geocaches in Roscommon County, many located among the natural beauty of the area. Come and enjoy this real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game with your family or while hiking along our lakes and streams.
