About this property
Custom Lakeside Balcony Cabin 20B
What do our guests say about us? Perfect! Amazing! Awesome! We will be back!
As you round the shoreline, the stretching waterfront landscape will catch your eye as you approach the parking lot directly in front of the lodge (Yes! There is ample space for a trailer!). You will use a keyless lock system to enter your cabin.
Open your door and you are already on the ground level of your new place! You will be instantly greeted with the aroma of pine which is visible in the tongue and groove walls and ceiling as well as an instant sight of north facing windows capturing a stunning view of the Portage Canal. What you will find on second look is a comfortable queen bed around the corner and many beautifully crafted pieces of cedar, Amish made furniture.
Traverse the stairs to the third floor and you will find an open lounge/entertainment area with three more queen bedrooms and a Queen sized futon. This cabin accommodates ten adults.
Each of our hand made, custom milled, northwoods cabins boast a three story duplex including a ground level, garden style unit and an upstairs double decker terrace style unit. The cabin size in total is 2,500 square feet! (550 and 1,950 square feet respectively). They all include full kitchens and washer/dryer units for your convenience and utility.
Walk out the back door onto your balcony and embrace the jaw dropping, sweeping beauty of the Keweenaw Waterway in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
Whatever your needs may be: Visiting Michigan Tech, snowmobiling (the Bill Nichols trail is only .25 miles from the resort!), swimming at the beach, or skiing (Mont Ripley is less than 2 miles from the resort), we offer a comfortable, comprehensive resort experience for you.
Memories are in the making!
Welcome to Keweenaw Waters Resort!

We enjoyed our stay. The property worked well for our large family. The outdoor waterfront area appears to be under construction but the views from the deck were wonderful.
Very nice accommodations. Enjoyed morning coffee and grilling on the deck overlooking Portage canal and Hancock. Excellent for large groups. Close to downtown Houghton.
I don't normally fill these out, but for the price and size of the unit we were very happy! Great location for our snowmobile trip with ample parking space. Check in and out was very easy. We will definitely be back.
This is our second time staying here. We really love the location. In both cases, management was helpful answering questions. The units are super clean and stocked with everything you need.

Thanks for coming back and for your kind words Julie!
Very clean. Included all toiletries such as hand soap, dishwasher soap, shampoo/conditioner, body soap. Also, had coffee and plastic wrap/tin foil on hand. This is a huge help when coming in/out fast for work.
Everything was what it said it was and looked like. Trail was right down the road. There was parking for everyone and it worked out great for us. We will definitely be back
This was a great property for 3 generations to enjoy and the view across the portage was spectacular with the clean white snow. We had great spaces to be together to play games around the table and to spread out for quiet time. The kitchen worked well for our food prep. The "cabin", was VERY clean & well cared for! I preferred to wash some dishes upon arrival. We would definitely consider staying here again!
This is a beautiful new property with a lovely view of the Portage Canal. This is close to stores and restaurants and also close to all the beauty of the UP. The unit is well equipped. The only disappointment was the lack of access to the water and the lack of grass to take my dogs to. Though I do understand that the property is still undergoing construction so I am sure these issues will be rectified. I highly recommend this property for your stay.
