Calm Waters Cabin: RELAX-sauna-jacuzzi tub-campfire RECREATE-water-trails-MTU

Our 3000 sq.ft. log home is located on Portage Lake (just 9 miles from Houghton). Our peaceful home sits in a bay waiting for your arrival. All four seasons present an opportunity to have a wonderful getaway. Nothing compares to the tranquil experience of waking up by the water. Your morning coffee can be savored on one of our three outdoor covered porches as you watch various wildlife come alive (whitetail deer, otters, eagles, ducks, loons, birds, squirrels etc.). On cool mornings you can enjoy the beautiful view in the warmth of the cozy cabin with a burning fire.

During beautiful UP summer days this is a great place for swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, fishing, and campfires. In the winter months there is access to snowmobile trails , ice fishing, snowshoeing, and down hill & cross country skiing, In all four seasons you can find biking and hiking trails nearby. Take time to visit the Quincy Mine and the Keweenaw Historic National Park, shop in downtown, and eat at delicious UP restaurants. MTU is also only 11 miles away.

On indoor days our cozy cabin has books, games, and is connected to the outside world through Shorewaves wifi and Dish TV. You can keep yourself comfortable with central air in the summer and a propane fireplace & furnace in the winter. Our kitchen is fully equipped and we do our best to provide a few initial staples for your arrival (salt, pepper, seasonings, pan spray, toilet paper, & soaps). Nothing beats NOT having to pack any linens and bedding...our Restonic beds are all ready for you to rest your head. Prior to doing so, the sauna and jacuzzi tub can help you unwind at the end of the day. A washer and dryer is available for lightly soiled loads.

We do ask that our home is enjoyed by our guests and not large groups. Make this retreat a place to create heart warming memories with family/friends at Calm Waters Cabin!
