The Contentment on Portage Lake with Private Dock

"The Contentment" has Private Portage Lake frontage with Boat Dock directly across the street from this completely remodeled 4-bedroom 2 full and 1 half bath cottage that sleeps 8 people, located in the heart of beautiful Onekama on M-22 Scenic Highway! This special place is close to everything, making it easy to plan your visit. Portage Lake is one of West Michigan's most beautiful fishing lakes and gives you direct access to Lake Michigan. There's a public boat launch just a block away! The Contentment has private access to Portage Lake and Boat Dock! The dock is shared between guests of "The Contentment" and the "Stone Cottage." The Contentment is a four-bedroom with 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bath that sleeps 8 people and is the larger of the two cottages. The Stone Cottage is on the same parcel of land and the smaller of the two cottages, which sleeps 4 people. The Stone Cottage is rented separately. We mention the neighboring cottage so that our Guests are not surprised or confused when they see two stone houses. There is also a long-term tenant staying in the basement level of the Contentment with a separate entrance. Children and infants are welcome; however, Parents/Guardians should plan on bringing what they need. No crib, highchair, baby gates, etc., for children or infants.
