Relaxing getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - perfect for visiting with our son & his family who live in the area. We got to meet & visit with the owner who shared some history of the cottage and surroundings which made it even more special. Everything was as described - clean, very nicely decorated & comfortable. Thank you for a great stay!

Beautiful place on the portage!
This was the perfect place to stay during our visit to Michigan Tech. We were able to bring our boat and dock it at the private pier. It was very well stocked with everything we needed for our family vacation. Very comfortable, lots of space. Loved the fire pit and the patio.

This property had everything we needed. Most importantly, we had a plumbing issue and the property managers were on top of it instantly with a resolution in lightning speed. Really impressive customer service. Very peaceful location with view of the canal across the street.

A relaxing, beautiful get away
This property was tidy, relaxing and had a gorgeous view. The interior of the house had a fresh, clean look. We enjoyed using the canoe and having a bonfire with our children. They both enjoyed the hammock swing in the backyard. There were not a lot of staple foods in the kitchen, so if you needed anything, they were I would recommend going to the Walmart in town 12 minutes away. Also, the road between the house and the lake is a busy one, so this is something you may consider when bringing small children there.

Amazing views, great host
Will was a great host! We had an amazing week. I have a 1 year old, so when we showed up to find an extra booster chair in the kitchen and spare diapers in the bathroom, it was a nice touch. The view of the lake is incredible. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, silverware, wine opener, etc. which made cooking very easy. The ONLY downside I found was being right on a curve in the road, it was difficult to see cars coming. However, the road is NOT busy, and my 4 year old listens really well. The dock is also far enough from the road, so I wasn’t concerned being down there at all. We have a family cottage nearby so we spent a lot of time there, but I would not hesitate booking this house again. We had a great time. Thanks, Will!

Perfect summer stay for a family
This was a wonderful little place close to everything. We could visit our son at MTU and also explore the area easily. It was unseasonably hot, so we missed the AC, but we were provided with fans that helped. Kitchen was fully stocked. Beds were comfortable, but if adults are planning on sleeping on the bunk bed top or bottom, recommend bringing a foam pad. (We had one already, which was great.) It was really helpful having a laundry there. Bathroom was clean and efficient, but bring your own soap/shampoo. There's no TV, which many probably love, but we're big babies and need to crash and unwind once the little kids are in bed, so we bought a cheapie at Walmart and gave it to our college kid when done 😆. All in all a wonderful stay. We would definitely come again and recommend to others!

Absolutely perfect!
We had a group of 7 family/friends (5 adults, 2 high school daughters) staying at the cottage for 5 nights while our 3 sons attended hockey camp at MTU this week. The house could not have been more perfect. It was very clean, spacious, decorated adorably and very comfortable. The proximity to the water and dock to tie up our boat was a game changer from the previous years we have stayed up in Houghton and had to put the boat in at the launch downtown each time we wanted to use it. We got to enjoy daily fishing, tubing, kayaking (provided on site), paddle boarding, quiet reading and sunbathing at the waters edge and relaxing cocktails at the bay. It was a quick 10 minute drive to town and easy access to all the peninsula has to offer. The house had everything we needed, but because we were a larger group we did bring extra towels and bought a few wine glasses since there weren’t any in the house. The host, Will, was fantastic with communication for entry and very responsive to our needs. The check out process was simple & easy. Many rental places have you cleaning and stripping beds and even starting laundry then still charge a huge cleaning fee… not here! Just an easy wipe down of counters/table and towels in hamper. Definitely adds to the vibe that you are on vacation! The property & house are even better than described online. 100% recommend renting here and interacting with Will. He’s laid back, kind, & has some great stories. I hope to be able to come back and stay again

Cute cottage on the portage canal
The cottage was clean and recently renovated. It's nice and bright and has a great view. It is basic but had everything we needed. We stayed with 4 adults and had plenty of room. I think 6 would fit fine as long as sharing 1 bathroom isn't an issue. We cooked several meals and found the small kitchen worked. We also appreciated having a washer and dryer. It doesn't have a dishwasher or very many outlets, but we didn't miss them.
Will, the owner, met us at check in and was very welcoming. We had a request during our stay and he took care of it immediately. I would happily recommend this cottage if you are looking to stay in this area.

Great Family Base camp for the Keweenaw
Will and Lori were great. They met us as we were unloading and asked if we needed anything. The house location make it easy to day trip up to Copper Harbor or down to Iron Mountain. Beautiful sunrises from the patio looking out to the Portage Lake. And beautiful sunsets a few minutes away at the black sands beach.

Deceiving pictures
As I pulled into the driveway with my family. I immediately thought I was at the wrong address. There is a boarded up patched window being the first thing you see and a run down garage. It seemed more like something you'd find on foreclosure auction and not something you would pay lots of money a night for. The inside of the house seemed decent enough until we started getting settled in. We found dirty socks, stained sheets and blankets, one bed had pillows with no pillow cases, a poor redo job. There is no AC and the screens on the windows are not of the best quality allowing a huge amount of bugs into the house. We did request a couple fans and never received a reply. We also found a huge clump of hair wrapped up in one of the clean wash towels in the bathroom. There is a door marked private but unlocked, that room has access to the outside and is only locked with 1 2x4 with 2 screws from the inside which could be easily broken into and makes the house very unsecure. Once we made our way to the beach we found a dock that isn't private the owner apparently rents one side of it out to someone else making it very hard to fish off of with our kids. The dock is very wobbly and in need of repair or replacement. The description "beachfront" is inaccurate. It is a waterfront or lake view as there is no beach. However the bottom is sandy and okay for swimming as in the description states. It's just not a beach as the search filters say in this listing. There was peices of wood in the water along the side of the peir with rusty old nails sticking out of it that we had to move to make a safe place for the kids to swim. The pictures are very deceiving and make the house and property look a lot better than they are. Overall it could have been worse but not worth what we paid. We took our kids on vacation thinking we would have a very nice house to impress them with and we were all disappointed. The price doesn't reflect the quality. This would have been more acceptable at a hundred per night with all extra fees included in that price. Being landlords ourselves we would never think of renting a house in this condition especially at that price. The location is great, the lake is beautiful the water was nice once we cleared out the hazards. There is a lot to do in that area and the house and property does have potential.

Wonderful location - great hosts!
We were desperate for a new rental - when we couldn’t get into our original property. Will and Lori did a quick turnaround and got us into their place a day early! The cottage was adorable - with every thing we needed! The location was perfect - we went to copper harbor and to the porcupine mtns- and so many places in between! We used our paddle boards at this place - so easy! Highly recommend this property and the hosts!!

We enjoyed our stay. The house is very cute and super clean. The owners are accommodating and helpful. It's a beautiful location and would definitely stay again. The road can be a little worrisome to cross if you have young children, but was totally fine for our 9 year olds!

September trip to UP of Michigan to ride UTVs
Our 2 night stay here at this property was perfect for our weekend in the UP of Michigan. The house is in a great location for anyone looking to ride UTVs on the trails or access to fishing or swimming in the canal during the summer months. Everything stated on the online property listing is accurate. The house was very clean and well furnished with everything you might need for a weekend vacation here. I would consider staying at this property again if we were to travel to this area again. Easy check-in/check-out process. Close driving distance to Houghton. Highly recommend!
