Up North Luxury w/Unmatched Charm! 2 miles to MTU!

The Portage Centre is spacious, perfect for entertaining & tastefully remodeled to pay tribute to the area’s rich ice hockey tradition.i

The Portage Centre is the foremost destination for adventure seekers, & large families as it sits at the gateway to the Keweenaw, & is located just steps from the famed Jack Stevens snowmobile trail and Portage Canal.

The building has a long history as The General Glass Company, but the owners recently purchased the building to create the Portage Centre. The Portage Centre is a fully remodeled 3 bed/3 bath luxury home. The guest area consists of the entire 1750 sf main floor while the basement was retained by the owner for storage, caretaker apartment and is inaccessible to guests.

While staying at The Portage Centre, guests do not share spaces or amenities with anyone else. The property is located along Hancock Street (US41) and is in the middle of everything. If you are a light sleeper there is a chance the traffic noise could wake you in the front bedroom. The Master bedroom is located in the rear of the building and traffic will not affect most sleepers. That said, we are in the middle of everything and you can walk to most everything in downtown Houghton and Hancock!

A portion of all bookings will be donated to support local youth hockey.

This was a beautifully done remodel with all the amenities we required. It was perfect for our group of 6 adults with room for all. We went on a SXS tour of the area and it was within minutes from the trail system. I would recommend this and would certainly stay here upon our return to the area.

This was one of the nicest rentals we have ever stayed in. It was spotless! The rooms are huge and the kitchen is amazing! There was so much room and the bonus of 3 bathrooms was priceless for a family of 5 with 3 teens. I could not say enough good things about this house.

Great house and location! The home is beautifully renovated and walking distance to attractions. My husband and I stayed with two other couples. We all had our own room and a separate bathroom for each couple. The host is very responsive. Only negative is street noise. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Having the AC fan running in the room helped tremendously. We would definitely return!

My family went up to the Keweenaw for a short visit between Christmas and New Years. The weather didn't cooperate but the place was fantastic. It's big, clean and great location. We will definitely stay again when we go north.

Well stocked, roomy, wonderfully decorated, good parking, nice fans and sound machines. We really enjoyed time as a family, places to play card games together ant to watch the game together, to cook together and to be able to take some time apart.

Terrific Property, Great Location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners did a stellar job converting the business building into a home - good taste and well stocked. We liked the location too. Street noise is there, but did not impede on our stay. Check-in and check-out super easy. Thanks and we will choose this place again when we are back.

Staying at this property was amazing! The location was incredibly convenient to access the downtown Hancock/Houghton area. The house itself is incredibly spacious, clean and an awesome hangout space! Check-in was incredibly fast and easy. The manager of the property responds in 5-10 minutes. I would definitely recommend staying here to others.

Convenient and Clean

The property was clean, as the photos depict. It's in the heart of downtown, so very close to the university, dining, etc. However, convenience comes at the expense of heavy truck and snowmobile noise.

Stunning property by lake

I can not recommend this property enough! It was so beautiful inside and every room was so spacious and decorated so nicely. The property was very clean and the bedding had crisp white sheets. It was a block away from a wonderful park that overlooked the portage. Also had fun trails to walk and so close to town and restaurants. We felt so at home and can’t not wait to stay again!

Excellent home in Hancock

This place was wonderful, highly recommended. I ended up staying just over a week and needed to extend for a few days. Luckily it was available and the owner was really responsive and helpful. It was truly a home away from home. Super comfortable, very clean, had everything we needed and we cooked every meal. We really loved this place. Would definitely come back here if we come to the area again!

So much space!!!

We loved this property! It's much bigger than it appears in the photos. The home is well stocked with quality kitchen wares, gorgeous furniture, and comfy beds & pillows. Our stay consisted of utilizing the house as a home base while we visited family, friends, and hit hit the beaches so the location was perfect!!!
