Beautiful town, great location!
The house was great. Clean, with lots of amenities and right on the water. Very nice large dock to fish off. The hosts were great and very prompt to answer any questions we had. Lots to see around the area and great restaurants. Bed was comfortable and the shower was nice as well. Definitely recommend.

Dreamland indeed
This is a fantastic little cottage that was perfect for our needs. Helped move our son into MTU and decided to make a mini vacation out of it. The cottage is super comfortable with a large bathroom with huge walk in shower, laundry, comfy beds, just great ! I caught 5 fish off the beautiful large dock including a really nice pike. Only thing I found myself wanting for was a fishing boat or pontoon to rent. If you want utter peace and solitude in the most beautiful part of Michigan look no further.

Amazing property
This property looked even better than the pictures ! Beautifully maintained and well stocked. It took us 45 minutes to get there from Houghton due to inclement weather which was not ideal. I was under the impression that it was going to be closer to Michigan Tech.

Beautiful!
The cabin was immaculate. It had all the anemities you could ask for. Washer/dryer, fully stocked kitchen (with coffee, sugar, oil, eggs, flour, vinegar). The beds were so comfortable! And the view! Breathtaking! We fished from the dock and drank in the beautiful fall colors in the Keweenaw. We'd definitely stay here again, hopefully in the summer so we could enjoy the lake more. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Loved It!
We stayed here during the fall color tour that we as a family of 3 take every year to the U.P. This place is awesome! It’s cozy, clean and it really was a home away from home.The drive around the lake may take a little time, but relax and enjoy the scenery because this place is worth it.

Had a wonderful visit and everything was great at this clean and comfortable home. Highly recommend the food and drinks at the Dreamland Inn - especially Mexican Monday and the fresh steelhead. Being able to dock our boat at the property was a great convenience for accessing both Portage Lake and Lake Superior. A good location for exploring the many activities available in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Also recommend the Thimbleberry margaritas at Carmelitas in Calumet. The fall colors were absolutely beautiful and we hope to be able to return again next year. Thanks for everything Timm and Becky!

We loved our stay at this property! Very nice place, ultra comfortable and nice and quiet. Timm and Becky are great hosts and they provide everything you could need. The location was ideal for the adventures we had planned and close enough to restaurants and businesses for convenience. We highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit this area of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula!!

Luxury on Lake Portage
This sharp, clean property was even better than the pictures! Two seemingly new comfortable couches gave our party of 5 plenty of seating in the family room with breathtaking views of the lake. The bathroom was clean, bright and had a large granite shower with lots of fresh towels. Tim and Becky were great owners who were available for any questions or needs. The Kitchen appliances were full sized and appeared to be nearly new. The availability of Kayaks and the Paddle Board were a huge plus on the lake. The long and extra wide dock was sturdy and great for fishing or sitting around in the sun. We were about 10 minutes from a sandy beach and swimming on White City Beach with its pier and Light House on Lake Superior. We are grateful for our relaxing week.

Cute and clean!
This beautiful cottage by the water is by far the cleanest rental we’ve stayed in. Nice open style kitchen stocked to the brim. We had a few steamy days and my husband greatly appreciated the air conditioner. I enjoyed quiet evenings by the campfire until the notorious mosquitoes came out in full attack mode. My daughter basically lived on the pier the entire time we were at the cottage. A little bit off the beaten path for our southern day trips but the drive was too pretty to complain about. It was about an hour to Copper Harbor, Adventure Mine and the western coast for rock hunting. We’d definitely stay again for our next Keweenaw trip. Highly recommend!

Fishing Trip on Portage Lake
This house was extremely clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our trip. We were permitted to leave our fishing boat tied to the pier throughout the duration of our stay which made getting out fishing quick and convenient. There is a well-maintained boat launch ramp just 0.5 miles from the house. Timm and Becky were great, everything was seamless.
