About this property

Pure "Up North" Summer Cottage by the water

Steps away from "the big lake" (Lake Michigan) and "the little lake" (Portage Lake), this classic 4 bedroom, 3 bath summer cottage is perfect for kicking off your shoes and letting the peace of "up north living" rejuvenate the soul. Not much required except your willingness to relax. Keep your boat at the Portage Point Resort just a few blocks away. Enjoy the areas swimming, boating, fishing, and golfing. Visit the quaint neighboring towns along the Lake Michigan shoreline and stop at the fruit and vegetable stands, overlooks, wineries, lighthouses, and microbreweries along the way. Many area hiking and biking trails.
CANCELLATION POLICY: from Memorial weekend to Labor Day weekend receive a full refund of your deposit if cancelled 120 or more in advance of arrival. This overrides VRBO's indication of no refund.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
