The home was quite nice with a great yard and right on Portage lake. Nice location for venturing into Houghton/Hancock as well as hiking to waterfalls and hitting the State Park beach.

The house was just what we needed for our visit to MTU. It was clean and roomy…While there we got a bit of snow overnight, the roads were plowed the next morning. We had lots of fun on our long weekend. Thanks for sharing your house with us!

Very nice quiet home, with a spectacular view! All the rooms are huge! Sitting on patio is a vacation in itself with the bonus of a hot tub. This vacation home has everything you need and spotless.

Clean and neat house with everything we needed. Beautiful view of the canal especially at night. You can see Michigan tech and the loft bridge if you walk out by the water.
My kids loved the hot tub too!
Thank you!

The place is amazing. Very clean and spacious. Location to Houghton and the Keewenaw is perfect. We had five adults so the three bedrooms were perfect. Open kitchen/dining/living room space is perfect for being together. The outdoor patio and lawn on the water is wonderful. Loved the hot tub. This was our second time staying there and we hope to return again! Thank you for sharing your space with us!

Everything was great! Highly recommend!!
Great for a weekend get away or anytime anyone wants a nice spot for a relaxing UP vacation. I bet it is pretty awesome in the winter too! There is a major trail just up from it that is a big snowmobiling trail in the winter. It is on the canal which is beautiful and has a hot tub that overlooks it, awesome spot!! Can’t recommend enough 😊

We stayed while moving our son into his MTU apartment. This property was very spacious, comfortable and in a great location. Quiet area. Fully stocked. It literally had everything we needed. We made use of the grill and patio and enjoyed the view of the canal. The owner was very responsive to questions. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again.
