Private beachfront 2BR w deck and firepit in Onekama
The apartment and porch have lake views and the property includes 70 feet of private sandy beach frontage on Portage Lake. There is a private covered porch and fire pit. There are kayaks and life jackets available for guests to use. The location is in the center of Onekama village with shops and restaurants in both directions.
The apartment is a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom with large covered porch and fire pit that is located directly on Portage Lake with a private beach. The property was recently purchased and beautifully refurnished. The property includes:
- The entrance to the apartment is through the private deck
- The deck has a dining table and four chairs and two upholstered regular chairs
- The entrance opens up into the living room with a sectional couch and 55 inch TV
- There is an indoor dining table with 2 chairs

- Both bedrooms have queen sized beds and closets.
- The full bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination
- The living room, front bedroom, and outdoor porch has excellent views of the lake
- The property includes two other apartments. The porch and firepit closest to the apartment are for the exclusive use of this apartment.
- The beach has two additional firepits, the firepits and 70 foot lake access beach are shared only with the other apartments at this location. This is a private beach (not a public beach) which is hard to find on Portage Lake!
- The porch is less then 150 feet from the lake. There are no roads or obstructions between the apartment and the lake.
- The location has kayaks and life jackets that can be used by guests and are easily launched from the beach.
- Onekama is on Portage Lake that has a channel connecting it to Lake Michigan. The lake is spring-fed and very clear.
