the perfect marshmallow. The courtyard firepit is ready for s'mores and stargazing.
On the starboard side of M22
We provide lounge chairs, umbrellas, + pool floats. Our grassy courtyard has space for games and a gorgeous view of Portage Lake. The courtyard firepit is a great place to roast s'mores after dinner. Meet your cottage neighbors and toast to a great vacation day. We provide the firewood so you can just relax.
Open Seasonally
Our cottages are open seasonally ~ May to October.
Hosting guests and sharing our love for Northern Michigan is our passion...
but we do wrap things up in October each year.
We sincerely hope that you will be our guest this season!
Let us help you plan your get away!
Start a new tradition and join us “Up North.” Our cottages are the perfect landing spot for day trips along Northern Michigan's most beautiful country road/scenic drive, highway M22.
We truly love what we do here and we look forward to hosting you.
Your hosts,
Wendy and David
