About this property

Up North Luxury w/Unmatched Charm! 2 miles to MTU!

The Portage Centre is spacious, perfect for entertaining & tastefully remodeled to pay tribute to the area’s rich ice hockey tradition.i

The Portage Centre is the foremost destination for adventure seekers, & large families as it sits at the gateway to the Keweenaw, & is located just steps from the famed Jack Stevens snowmobile trail and Portage Canal.

The building has a long history as The General Glass Company, but the owners recently purchased the building to create the Portage Centre. The Portage Centre is a fully remodeled 3 bed/3 bath luxury home. The guest area consists of the entire 1750 sf main floor while the basement was retained by the owner for storage, caretaker apartment and is inaccessible to guests.

While staying at The Portage Centre, guests do not share spaces or amenities with anyone else. The property is located along Hancock Street (US41) and is in the middle of everything. If you are a light sleeper there is a chance the traffic noise could wake you in the front bedroom. The Master bedroom is located in the rear of the building and traffic will not affect most sleepers. That said, we are in the middle of everything and you can walk to most everything in downtown Houghton and Hancock!

A portion of all bookings will be donated to support local youth hockey.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Frederick Jaehnig

Host profile image
Maria and I each served in the Air & Space Forces for over 20 years and we started Copper County Vacation Rentals with the main goal of providing our guests with clean, comfortable and relaxing adventures. As we return to the Keweenaw full-time we will continue to provide amazing lodging, but we will also look to enhance our experience packages.

Due to our military background we believe in 100% transparency and renting a home from a stranger can be intimidating. We are absolutely certain you will love staying with us and we encourage you to check out our numerous reviews online to make sure that is the case!

Why they chose this property

The Portage Centre is centrally located and most everything is within easy walking distance. The Jack Steven trail is located less than 100 yards behind the building and offers great access to hundreds of miles of ATV and snowmobile trails!

What makes this property unique

*Accidental Damage Protection - We know accidents happen and all bookings include a complimentary $3000 damage protection policy to cover the property and to help provide you peace of mind throughout your stay.
