A picture perfect Thanksgiving
This beautiful lakefront home was the setting for a Thanksgiving to remember. Our son lives in Houghton and we wanted a place that would feel like home away from home for the holiday. I especially wanted a kitchen in which I would enjoy cooking Thanksgiving dinner - it was perfect! Everything I needed, from cookware, to mixers to utensils was right there! To top it off, even the dishes for serving were lovely! The rest of the house was full of nice touches including lovely linens, towels and plush blankets. And the view is postcard worthy!!! The house itself is beautifully designed and crafted with high-end finishes in every room. In addition to everything else, the owner, Sandy, was extremely prompt and helpful whenever I had a question. Needless to say, we all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and would love to return to this home in the future!

Perfect long weekend!
Our family was in town for a fall wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The custom home was very unique and homey, accommodations were perfect and the views were from a dream. Woke up one morning to fog that burned off the water by 10am. We will definitely be back!

Family vacation
House was lovely and view was beautiful. Spent many hours just enjoying the outdoor deck-playing bags, having smores in the firepit, just drinking tea outside in the morning.

Just came home plan to rebook for next year. Fantastic experience. The house is located on the most spectacular peninsula jutting out into Portage Lake. The accommodations are well designed and tastefully decorated. This is a special place.
