This is one of three of our vacation home rentals we have been in the vacation rental business for 23 years.

Why they chose this property

This house is on Portage Lake and is conveniently located to all the exciting special events, attractions, and recreational opportunities in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Michigan Tech University and Finlandia University are only 6 miles. The well-designed kitchens and the charcoal grill make cooking easy for those who want to eat at home rather than going out to eat.
Outdoor entertaining space across the street with covered pavilion, fire pit and 70' dock. This area shared with the Carriage House guests.

This home is also a model home featuring Golden Eagle Log Homes. I am an Independant Dealer for Golden Eagle Homes. All three of our vacation rentals are Golden Eagle Log Home packages.
