2588 Lakeview Road

Nestled along the north shore of Portage Lake with 68 feet of private frontage and sunset views, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath cottage has been creating summer memories for generations. Built in the 1930's and lovingly owned by the same family since 1988, it captures everything people love about a classic "Up North" retreat while offering the opportunity for the next family to make it their own. Spend your days boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, or simply relaxing on Portage Lake, with direct access through the channel to Lake Michigan. Walk or bike less than a mile to the sandy Lake Michigan beach at Captain John Langland Park, known locally as "The Point," or take a five minute walk to the iconic Sunset House, where locals and visitors have gathered for generations to watch the sunset over Lake Michigan. Stop by the historic Portage Point Inn for a sandwich or pizza on the porch while overlooking Portage Lake. Beyond the lake, the area offers year round recreation. Golf enthusiasts are just minutes from all three golf experiences at Arcadia Bluffs, including The Bluffs, The South Course and The Dozen. Salmon fishing on Lake Michigan, hiking, the Victorian riverfront city of Manistee, downhill and cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing are all nearby. With 1,340 square feet of living space, this nostalgic cottage isn't just a place to spend your summers, it's a place where family traditions begin and memories last for generations. BATVAI
