Cottage vacation rentals in Portage Lake

Joe and Christina’s place is beautiful and very relaxing. They have thought of everything to make sure their guest have all that is needed with great supplies of towels, kitchenware, etc. They were a great host always responding in good timing and accommodating our needed request to extend days.

We had the most amazing time at Will’s home. It’s exactly as described. The home is so cozy and has everything you could ever need. We cooked in and went to a few of his recommended restaurants. Will was extremely responsive from booking to departure. We hope to stay again. Perfect location and the hot tub and deck are fabulous!

Tom is a super friendly host with a lovely home. We really enjoyed the views from the cabin and the deck amenities (hot tub, string lights, grill). The porch right inside had a great sitting area and view of the lake during the day. This was also very close to a number of things, including Ann Arbor, which was really convenient.

Absolute dream place!! Wonderful neighborhood and absolutely pristine place. 5 star! One of the best airbnbs I have stayed at. Thank you!!

The stay went very well. There are multiple options for fishing and places to launch a boat. I would definitely recommend this for a vacation for with all the activities to be had in the area. We encountered friendly people in the area and with shopping and restaurants close by it made our time there a memorable one.

Eddie greeted us warmly and showed us how the house worked. I was there for a dog show it was absolutely perfect for that! Everything we needed was right there and it felt a very safe comfortable dog friendly area!

Great weekend and Chris was a great host. Thanks.

This place was the perfect getaway for our family weekend. Our daughter is a student at University of Michigan and we wanted to give her a break from studying. This cottage made for a peaceful weekend trip. Cute towns and parks to explore with an amazing view to enjoy morning coffee/evening drinks.

“That 70s Cottage” was the perfect choice for a quiet long weekend getaway. As the cottage is pet friendly, my spouse & I brought our two cats who were able to enjoy the vacation with us. The location is prime with a beautiful view of Lake Erie right out of the front window. We would absolutely recommend booking this unique & cozy cottage to anyone, as we will surely be rebooking. The hosts are incredibly kind- even offering a later checkout time on checkout day- which was a wonderful bonus. Thank you again Bill & Megan for the wonderful stay! Cheers! Briana & Steve Johnson

Had a great weekend here, it’s a gorgeous house with unbeatable views. So glad we stumbled on this gem, highly recommend it, even in the winter where the ice on the lake was beautiful to watch!

We stayed at Julie's place in Haslett for about 2 months due to water damage in our home. We felt right at home! We are a family of four with two little ones and a small dog and we had everything we needed. Julie communicated with us daily and we loved the location. We are so grateful for Julie & her family.

Charming cottage with a beautiful lake view. Has everything you need from kitchen utensils to board games.

We had a great stay at this little riverside cottage. Everything was updated and super cute. Hosts were great communicators and gave step by step instruction for everything. It was still cool enough that we did not use the outside amenities but did see that during the summer this would be a great place to be on the water or using the fire pit. Location was more private than I thought it would be; in the village but off on this short private drive along the river. My only surprise was the proximity of the local train but had I read everything that wouldn’t have been so shocked at 2am. It only happened on our first night and then not again but it was a hilarious “My Cousin Vinnie” moment. For sure you can walk downtown Milford because that is where you are, right off of Main Street. We ate at Lei Ting Blue Pearl one night. Upscale Asian food was very good and they did a lovely carryout. Corrati’s on main the next. We had two average pasta meals. Would definitely stay again. Loved it.

We were visiting family in the area with our dog and this was the perfect location. Easy to get around. Great accommodations. Our dog loved the fenced in back yard with a view to the goats, deer, wild turkeys. The house was great with 3 bedrooms and a huge living area. The kitchen junk drawer actually had things you might need like an extension cord or tape. Felt right at home!

This is one of the most well-appointed Airbnbs I have every stayed in, especially for someone who loves to cook! It was also very family friendly, as we had a one year old in tow. It is right on the lake and the view is so peaceful and blue. We came in cold weather so did not experience the water or the busy season, but it was perfect all the same. Beds were comfortable and bathroom was very clean. Everything - furniture, appliances, etc. - were spotless and in good working order. There were spots to store things, so even though there were six of us (including a baby!) it never felt cluttered or messy. Lots of games provided and the attached all season porch was nice for reading or winding down at the end of the day. 11/10 stars!!!

We had a great stay while in town visiting family! Jessica was very nice and helpful throughout our visit. The house was clean, well-stocked, and conveniently located near food, local attractions, and our relatives. The yard was perfect for our fur baby to enjoy. We’d definitely book again if we’re in the area!

Great place, lots of light.

We had a wonderful stay. Lovely space in a great location. We would stay here again!

We had a fantastic stay! The home was thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed to feel right at home. The space was clean, cozy, and perfect for our weekend stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

We had a wonderful week-long stay in this cozy home! Especially loved the kitchen, the heated tile of the bathroom floor, and the location! It’s a great little house!

This cottage was in the perfect location for the conference we attending at Suburban Collection in Novi. Very beautiful surroundings and the perfect place!

Todd’s place was the perfect spot for my trip. He was extremely helpful and responsive. I had everything I needed for my stay. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your beautiful cottage! Our family loved it. The area is so pretty-breathtaking really. The cottage is beautifully renovated and adorable. We were not able to go boating this trip, but we definitely hope to be back and to go out on the pontoon boat. There's so much more hiking we would love to do, but our family came to town to visit relatives, and celebrate our dad's 90th birthday, so our time here was focused on that. We were so glad that it was a mere 10 minutes to get to Chelsea and the assisted living where he is staying. Thank you also for the thoughtful welcome gifts! And for the use of portacrib and a few toys for our 8 month old grandson! You guys are awesome, and we hope to be back soon for another visit. Much gratitude! Lauren and Steve and family

Wonderful hosts!! Perfect location for access to tranquility of the lake, hustle and bustle of Ann Arbor, and an easy drive to Frakenmuth for the holiday store! The cottage was cozy and perfect for our family with a 2 and 4 year old. The hosts had toys and books to entertain our littles and the space was perfect for us to simply relax as a family. The hosts also went out of there way to offer toddler amenities so we didn’t have to bring extra since they have toddlers as well! In addition, the water filter system broke before we got there and they provided water for our family! Absolutely wonderful hosts and I would highly recommend them to anyone. We will definitely look into staying there again if we find ourselves in the area!
