Girls weekend

The place was perfect for what we needed for a girls weekend getaway. The property was beautiful, and everything worked fine. I enjoyed kayaking on the lake with all the gear available. It’s well water downstairs so we brought bottled water. Water upstairs was best for bathing. Warning, there are signs from the neighbors protesting vacation rentals when you come in, but no one bothered us. Property manager was responsive. I would consider staying here again.

Fabulous large lake house

Fabulous home for our large family in town for a wedding from 6 different states. Nicely clean upon arrival, beds and all furniture were very comfortable, and common areas were very conducive to catching up with family. Communication was excellent and all Interactions with Joseph (host) were very positive and he went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Appreciate the extra blankets in each bedroom closet, plenty of towels even for our large family, and the iron and ironing board. The lake view is stunning - given the opportunity we would absolutely stay at this home again!!

Hometown Feel!

I highly recommend this lovely property. Plenty of space for our party of 11 people. Everyone was so comfortable and the weather and the lake were just so amazing. The owner made it so easy for us to check in and answered all of the questions that I had. Hope to rent this again next year for a family reunion! Prices are reasonable and made long lasting memories together !

Close to perfect, but not quite

Overall, this rental was great for our group. Spacious with lots of sleeping accomodations. Communication with the host was fantastic and check in/out was a breeze. Lots of amenities for outdoor activities (which we didn't use but was nice to have) and well stocked kitchen. The only downsides to take off a few stars were 1). the place was not quite clean (our socks were black by the end of the day even though no one wore shoes in the house) and the neighborhood was quite anti short term rental.

Perfect weekend family getaway

1st floor master was perfect for 80+y.o. Parents. Lots of space for the 8 of us. Lovely water views. Took the kayaks across the lake and watched eagles. Very quiet neighborhood for sleeping. Suggestion for owners to review the property for elderly hazards like uneven front walkways. Also check smoke detectors for legal number ( only saw one upstairs). Regardless, I would return.

Loved the lake being right outside the back door. A few items: Bathmats in all the bathrrooms are a must Would appreciate trash bins in the bedrooms Have your cleaner check the grill for leftover food (we had to clean out leftover hamburger meat & hot dogs before we could cook dinner) Have your cleaner check the dishwasher (we had to scrub cooked on scrambled egg in the skillet from previous tenants before we could cook breakfast)

Lake Portage bliss

The house is kept very tidy and clean with perfectly comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen is well stocked with the essentials for cooking and the gas grill is a nice Weber unit with plenty of room to hangout and eat on the deck. The view of the lake and sunsets is just pure bliss. We could not have been more comfortable, at home feeling and satisfied. We will rebook there for our next trip witjout hesitation.

Beautiful location

The view from this home is amazing! Just 30 minutes from Ann Arbor, it was a great place to visit with our Wolverine! Lots of beds and space for a large group, or in our case, space for a smaller group to spread out! Plenty of dishes and cookware, and plenty of towels and linens for all guests. Our only difficulties stemmed from bugs (someone before us left a door open) and the need for additional cleaning (bathrooms and dishes). Owner was responsive by messaging, but our first few hours were unfortunately spent in ways we didn't expect, as we had to remedy the situation ourselves.

Family reunion at the Lake

We rented this house on Portage Lake for a family reunion. The weather was great, the paddle boards and the kayaks were a big hit and so nice that is part of the house rental, it made the stay extra fun. I rated the cleanliest lower because it was not as clean as it should have been for a vacation rental house, it could use some TLC and deeper cleaning. Over all we had a great stay!
