Awesome modern property!
We’ve stayed at this property before, just a different unit. We were excited to find this unit because we were previously told this property was being changed to long term rentals. Always love this property because the units are like new, modern, and always clean. We hope to stay here again next year when we come for our annual trip!

Great weekend
Overall everything was great. A couple notes. We could not get the WiFi to work and the entrance to the street is very hard to see.
Very cute space, loved the complimentary tea and coffee. Check out was super easy and the location was perfect for visiting MTU. Will definitely consider staying here again!
Nice place. Clean Quiet, great view of the water. There is a big park right there along with boat landing area.

Thank you for this beautiful location in the UP. Love the little extras like the microwave popcorn and coffee. Beds were comfy and the view of the lake and park were amazing. While we did not spend much time inside we would stay again while visiting MTU.

Clean & Accurate
This venue provided my family with a very comfortable stay. It is very clean and well stocked with toiletries, laundry abilities, and kitchen needs. The hosts have provided great communication within the unit - instructions on wifi, local favorite picks, and check our procedure. There is a wonderful view of the lake and park within a few steps. The listing is very accurate.

Perfect location
My husband and I rented this beautiful and well equipped townhome as our “base camp” for our exploration of the Michigan UP. The townhome provided a relaxing place to come home to every evening after our excursions to Porcupine Mountain, the Quincy Mine, Copper Harbor, Bond waterfalls, and Pictured Rocks. Portage Lake is quiet and fun to see the fishermen out on the lake. The trails near the house were an excellent place to go for a walk in the evenings and the stars are amazing from the Chassell townhomes!
The beds were comfortable and kitchen is well equipped. We definitely recommend this townhome!

Great place for families
This is a nice property for families. The beach and playground and right outside and even with the crowds from Strawberry Festival it was quiet inside. The layout is great and gives everyone their own space. Really convenient check in and check out and very minimal tasks to complete prior to leaving. The finishes also made it super easy to clean up after our kids.

This is our second stay in this townhouse. The townhouse is near our family but it allows for our own space and cooking facilities. We thoroughly enjoy watching all the activity at the Chassell Township Park. The location provides many safe places to walk.

New, clean, super easy to access. Even though it’s right by the park and there was plenty of traffic from the ice fishermen, it’s quiet in the townhouse. Perfect location for spending time with our Tech student 😁.

Excellent! Would definitely stay here again
This condo is in a great location for visiting Michigan Tech... 10 min drive. We only had 3 individuals in our party, which was perfect as we each got our own room and there are two bathrooms, but it could handle 6+ people. This unit is on the ground floor with parking right outside the door. Very convenient, great kitchen (missing a few essential utensils... so you may need to visit WalMart in Houghton), and very clean. Recently renovated. Good internet connection, Smart TV, etc... pretty new appliances, dishwasher, washer and dryer etc...
Hoping it's available next time we visit Michigan Tech!

Beautiful Townhouse
This townhouse is beautiful and had everything one would need while staying in the area. We enjoyed our stay here very much while visiting our sons at MTU. It was the perfect location and had the perfect layout. We loved the views of the water. The only complaint we had was the mattress in the master bedroom was not comfortable, extremely firm.

Their townhome is immaculately remodeled and the location on the lake is just lovely. We were there too short of time to take advantage of the lake, but we enjoyed ourselves immensely.
