Cute Condo
Owners were super helpful and active when it came to information that we needed. This is the perfect little gateway I will say it would be super hard to sleep more than 2 people in the condo - but seriously loved the view and area. Great views.

Perfect for 2
This amazing studio was the perfect size for me and my girlfriend. We stayed here to go to crystal mountain to snowboard. It’s in a quaint location and a 2-3 minute walk away from public Lake Michigan beach access.We were able to drive into Manistee and Traverse City for dinner. The studio itself was so clean and nicely decorated. We loved it!!

Cozy condo in a great location!
This condo was perfect for a weekend getaway to Portage Point with my husband! Clean, comfortable and well appointed with all of the essentials. Makes great use of the space. It was nice to have a kitchen for cooking breakfast and the pool/hot tub to use. A beautiful Lake Michigan beach (our favorite in Michigan) that is a short walk away makes this an excellent destination! We have been coming to Portage Point for many years and happy to have this condo as an option when just the two of us visit without the kids. You won’t be disappointed!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy & Steve King

Host profile image
We have been together for over 30 years, both, growing up in Michigan. Spending time, and relaxing, with family and friends is what we love the most! Time away doing this is good for the soul!

We have owned several rental properties, both here in Michigan and in Florida, achieving the highest host level on any platform we have utilized. Our guests are ALWAYS our priority and when you stay at our condo, you get caring, vested owners who will always put you first! Your comfort and enjoyment is our priority!

Why they chose this property

Portage Point Resort, in Onekama, is not only unique in its nostalgic feel but its location is beautiful and incredibly unique as well. Located on a very narrow strip of land, situated between two amazing and clear lakes. Directly on Portage Lake, which has so much to offer (swimming, fishing, water sports...) along with Lake Michigans spectacular sandy beaches and clear waters just steps away!
