Step back in time and escape to this 1938 renovated classic cottage. Located on Portage Lake, the cottage sleeps 8, comes with a dock, a fire pit for evening campfires, and an amazing screened in porch that faces the lake (no mosquitoes!!).

Ideal for family getaways, fishing excursions, and water sports lovers, our cozy cottage features a renovated and well-equipped kitchen, a living room with beautiful lake views, and a spacious screened porch perfect for lazy afternoons. Step outside onto the outdoor deck to soak up the sun or enjoy a barbecue on the gas grill. For those warmer July days, the cottage has AC to provide comfort.

Inside, you'll find a quaint master bedroom with a queen bed, a second bedroom with two extra large Maine bunk beds more than sturdy enough for 4 adults, and a full bathroom with a shower. A detached renovated garage room offers two additional twin beds for extra guests or privacy seekers with AC and TV. The Cottage has all the essentials including a full refrigerator, gas oven, microwave, washer/dryer, and a gas grille. Explore the nearby nature and bike trails leading to Houghton or Chassell, or take a short drive to the MTU campus, downtown Houghton, and popular restaurants.

**Note that the dock is there but the boat lift is not available this year.
