Portage House | 2023 Built Lake Home w/beach, arcade & huge deck

4 Bedroom House in Portage

Summary:
575 acre all-sports lake or wetland views from nearly every room in the home. You won't find another place that offers the ability for your group to swim, nature or bird watch, catch frogs or turtles, swim, fish or relax, like this home. We've set up the space so even if there's rain in the forecast, you'll have something to enjoy inside of the home. We're 12 mins from downtown Kalamazoo, 5 mins from I-94 and halfway between Detroit & Chicago.
The Space:
50' Lake frontage accessed just across road. We own 2 other homes next door and each home has a 50' Lake Access and Beach. With 4 bedrooms, 7 beds and a futon, there's plenty of room for relaxing. Each bedroom has its own theme and all beds have quality memory foam mattresses. The upstairs bathroom is the larger of the 2 full bathrooms and offers a full shower /tub setup with a separate water closet to allow for others to get ready to go out or prepare for bed. The main floor is a true open concept that allows not only the fresh air to easily flow through the home but allows your group this same luxury. We've added a large 35' long deck off the back of the home that stretches the entire length of the home. From the deck you'll be able to enjoy your group relaxing by the firepit or grab a chair and watch the large variety of birds, frogs, turtles, ducks, deer and more. We upgraded the game room on this home to offer a larger space to enjoy during early mornings or evenings when you're not swimming/fishing. Driving an electric vehicle..? We have a level 2, 50 amp car charging station on the driveway side of the home for convenient charging. This home has 10 parking spots.
We've tried to solve all of the challenges plaguing lake cottages...
1) They're typically really small in size. Our home is over 1700 sq ft and designed for groups to enjoy both indoor and outdoor living.
2) Parking - We offer comfortable parking for up to 10 vehicles.
3) Cold/Hot spots when heating and cooling - We built our home with 2x6 exterior walls, r-60 attic insulation, low e windows and a well designed, high efficiency hvac system to ensure when you want it warm in the winter or cool in the summer, that's exactly what you get.
4) Water Systems - We installed a brand new well water system as well as an on demand hot water system. That means unlimited hot water for showers!
When renting our lake house you may see other families and have the opportunity for kids to play with others while on your trip.

Summary: Excellent accommodations and well stocked with towels and all the regular accommodations needed to make an extended stay pleasant and welcoming. Perfect sized house for 4 adults and 3 kids ages 14, 12 and 7. Plenty of space, super clean and very relaxing. We were here for 5 nights and enjoyed the comfort and location as it made our daily trips into Kalamazoo very easy. The kids enjoyed the video games, adults enjoyed the space and grilling out on the deck area. Even though it was April, it was nice to be able to walk over to the lake/beach area to sit and relax. Highly recommended if you’re staying in the area for any extended time. Thanks!!

Summary: My family and I enjoyed our stay. House was perfect. Very clean and had everything you needed and more. The only thing I did not like was the road you crossed to get to the lake/beach. Was much busier than I expected and scared me with little kids. I putting up signs for drivers to see so they know children are crossing :) Other than that we would definitely come back!

Summary: This was one of the best rental properties we have utilized, and we have done many across the globe. Their attention to detail was top notch; they thought of so many details including beach towels, toys for the kids, step stools, kid dishes, etc. Furthermore, when we asked questions to the owner they responded quickly. The house was decorated so nicely it felt like our house and not a rental property - it was very welcoming! Our family very much enjoyed our stay and this owner/property raised the bar on our expectations. We look forward to coming back in the near future!
