Lovely house, great location

The house was well suited for a group. We loved having the dock on Portage Lake. You have to cross the street to get to the dock, but it’s just a stone throw away.

Guys golf trip to Arcadia Bluffs

The property was exactly as advertised and Jason was very responsive to questions. As it was a golf trip, it would have been nice if there were 8 beds instead of only 6, but we knew this going in so it wasn’t a surprise. All in all, a very nice place to stay for a golf weekend.

Great house and owners!

This house was great for our family. Plenty of space and well equipped for a large group in kitchen, bedding and beach chairs. Loved having kayaks and Jason even left a spare propane tank for the grill to make sure we had plenty! Very responsive to questions and everything was just like in the listing! Hope to be back next year!

We enjoyed our stay! Great location and wonderful house. The power went out one evening due to a car accident, and Jason was great about communicating updates from the electric company.

Family Vacation

We very much enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and comfortable. Having the dock across the street was very convenient for kayaking. The beach was close by, not very crowded and beautiful. My husband had forgotten the book he brought to read and Jason was nice enough to ship it back within a couple days! Thanks again for sharing your home with us!

Decker Cottage

This home was a great find! We were able to accommodate our family needs without any issues. Jason was readily available by phone when there was an operator error with the BBQ. We had never been to Michigan before, it turned out to be a great place for a family vacation. We would definitely go back.

Family vacation at Portage lake in Onekama Michigan

This property exceeded the expectations of me and all my guests. 2 of 3 canceled plans so they could extend their stay and the 3rd tried to rearrange commitments. Thee layout and cleanliness of the home, as well as the view, were raved about by all and my 7 year old grandson caught a fish right off the dock. Memories to last a lifetime Thanks Mike
