Perfect quiet getaway

We loved this place! On a quiet road and beautiful lake. We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck and fishing off the dock in the evening. The perfect place to just escape for a few days.

Beautiful home on a beautiful lake. The kitchen is large with lots of counter space. The bathroom is also spacious, especially that walk in shower! All the beds were comfy too. There is a very nice secluded beach only a short drive away (White City).

Absolutely beautiful

We loved our stay at this property! Very nice place, ultra comfortable and nice and quiet. Timm and Becky are great hosts and they provide everything you could need. The location was ideal for the adventures we had planned and close enough to restaurants and businesses for convenience. We highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit this area of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula!!

Loved It!

We stayed here during the fall color tour that we as a family of 3 take every year to the U.P. This place is awesome! It’s cozy, clean and it really was a home away from home.The drive around the lake may take a little time, but relax and enjoy the scenery because this place is worth it.

So happy we found this home

We’ve stayed at many rentals over the years while visiting our daughter at MTU, and this one is definitely at the top of our list. The home sits right on the Portage with a large dock and deck—perfect for enjoying the peaceful setting and beautiful sunset views. We saw all kinds of wildlife during our stay, including waterfowl, deer, and even a bear that crossed the road a few miles from the house!Inside, the home was spotless and very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and modern with a clean, tiled walk-in shower and more than enough towels. I really appreciated the thoughtful extras you don’t always find in other rentals—coffee and hot chocolate pods for the Keurig, plenty of toilet paper and paper towels, and even access to cleaning supplies. The washer and dryer were also a great bonus.You can tell the owners truly care about this home. They've created a welcoming, well-stocked, and worry-free space to relax. We’d definitely stay here again!
