Lakefront Cottage on Portage Lake and the Huron River Chain of Lakes

Your completely remodeled, affordable lakeside oasis awaits you and your family! Enjoy luxury vinyl flooring on the main and second level, a new kitchen with an island and wonderful light colors to give you that waterfront escape from the stresses of every day. The home boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms with showers on Portage Lake on the Huron River chain of lakes. Brand new Washer and Dryer and Water Softner installed as well! Enjoy spectacular views on the lower and upper decks on the lakeside. 4 Kayaks are available for your use at no additional charge. The Upper Level offers sleeping for 7 with one private bedroom and a spacious airy open sleeping area at the top of the stairs with breathtaking views of Portage Lake. Shared docking is available for one (1) boat! Pontoons are available for rental at nearby Wonderland West Marina. The home is fully furnished and ready for you and your family to make new memories at the lake. This home is perfect for kids who love to swim - the water is 2-3 feet deep for almost 400 feet off the shoreline - perfect for swimming! You'll want to reserve your spot for the 1st week of July and enjoy the magnificent fireworks right from the end of your dock. There are wonderful restaurants nearby and the city of Ann Arbor, home of the University of Michigan, is just 20 minutes away.
