About this property

FAMILY HOME ON LAKE MICHIGAMME

Camp Pops-and-Beers rests on 200' of Lake Michigamme shoreline. This home has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and boasts a large open living/kitchen/dining area floor plan with a fieldstone gas fireplace & floor to ceiling windows that overlook the expansive deck & lakefront.

Our 2015 renovation to the lower level adds a large family room area with ping pong table, movie watching and gaming area, as well as the 2nd bathroom and the 4th bedroom.

An easy to walk gravel trail will lead you through the trees down to the lakefront, where there's a large fire pit area steps away from the dock and beach/swim area. No noise or view of the highway here. The lake reaches 70 feet at it's deepest point. With 27 islands and 95 miles of shoreline this 4000+ acre lake is great for every summer or winter sport. A few of our favorites include: kayaking, wake boarding, water skiing, tubing, sailing, fishing, swimming, snow shoeing, snow mobiling, down hill skiing, ice fishing and sledding/tubing.

Loved our stay in Michigammee!

We had a great week staying at this cottage. Great location. My family fished all week. The lake and property were so relaxing - we had the lake almost to ourselves. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy the wonders of the UP. This place has it all.

Beautiful property

This property was beautiful! Easy access to the water. We enjoyed swimming, fishing, boating. We were able to bring our boat and keep it right at the dock. The home was perfect for our getaway! Gorgeous inside and out. The owner was so easy to communicate with and even gave us an idea for something to do during our stay! Lots of roads/trails to ride a side by side/four wheeler on. If you are lucky enough to stay here, do it! Peaceful and relaxing!

Great Ride

Eight of us stayed in the home on Lake Michagamme for a three day snowmobile weekend. The trails are jsut across the lake and easy to get to. Gas is also right there. The home was very comfortable and had all the amenities. The driveway was a bit tight for three trailers but we made it work. We would stay again.

Michigander Vacation Home

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Northwoods this month. This rental property was roomy enough for 11+ people to sleep comfortably. The finished basement was an excellent getaway for the kids (ages 7 &10) and their friends when they were done swimming in the lake. There's plenty to do even on cool days including kayaking, fishing and biking. This rental is more of a home than a cottage so if you are looking for deluxe accommodations in Michiganme, you won't be disappointed. We will definitely head back in 2016!

Family Vacation

Our family loved our five days staying in this beautiful place. The house is lovely and the walk from the house down to the water stole the show with the ferns dotted with wildflowers. It was just magical. From the dock, we were able to see a beautiful sunrise and sunset each day. The two kayaks that come with the rental were a huge bonus for us. There were a few mornings where the water was like glass and we were the only ones out on the water. We loved fishing from the bank, the dock, and the kayaks. There is a space beside the dock that was perfect for my daughter to splash around in and the fire pit area was so great in the evenings. The ping pong table was also fun to have in the evenings. It took us about 55 minutes to drive to Marquette where we found a secluded beach to enjoy and one day we drove a little less than 2 hours to Pictured Rocks. We had a great experience and would definitely come back!

Family of 4 from Wisconsin

We thoroughly enjoyed every day of our trip to Michigamme and this beautiful lake home. The house is immaculate yet comfortable, with plenty of room for 2+ families. The lake frontage includes a small beach for the kids, a large dock perfect for fishing or just enjoying a sunset. Our favorite activity during our week stay was to kayak from island to island on the lake. At night, we'd have big campfires on the shore. The one day that it did rain was spent inside playing games by the fireplace. We also enjoyed short day trip to Marquette for some fun by Lake Superior and dinner out (Vangoh's pizza). If you go, bring your bikes because there's a trail running along the highway that we plan to try next time. We will definitely head back! The owners were extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

Family visit

The house and woodland setting are lovely. Very clean. There were some basic seasonings at the house. Families with children will love the loft and game room. There are only 2 double beds, so adult couples traveling together will have to decide who sleeps in the twins. Would have liked to have towels provided, as we flew across country, but we knew this in advance. We were surprised to discover that the washer/dryer included at booking was no longer available, but we made do. I left a bracelet behind and the owner graciously notified me and offered to return it. It’s a quiet, comfortable home not too far out of town in a beautiful setting. Doe and fawn nestled in the lupine field a couple of mornings. Mosquitoes are fierce early morning and after dusk so bring repellent!

Beautiful Property!

This property has everything you are looking for! The house is very clean, well maintained and beautifully decorated! We were able to have nine people and didn't feel cramped at all. Lake Michigamme is very big. We rented a boat and fished all day. There is a fire pit by the lake, bring your own wood. The sunsets are beautiful! The owner's are very nice and respond very quickly! It's a great place to stay!

Beautiful and exciting

This place was so beautiful, right on the water. We stayed with a group of 8, which this place accommodated without any problem. We were able to visit the Porcupine Mts (about 2 hrs away), multiple waterfalls, hike and fish around the lake, and enjoyed kayaking and swimming around Lake Michigamme. Only bummer was we weren’t able to use the washing machine, which Tammy let me know about around a week ahead of our stay. We had a nasty storm roll through one of our nights, in which water started pouring into the basement. Luckily we had some handy guys with us and helped stop any possible damage from occurring. Tammy was grateful for our help and even offered us one night free! 🙂 It’s a wonderful house on a beautiful lake! We’d definitely come back!

wonderful lake get away in the upper pennisula

The home was beautiful and well maintained and had everything we needed to make it a great vacation with family. There was a great fire pit near the lake and firewood was easy to obtain close by. Michigamme Lake is a spectacular lake in the heart of the upper peninsula and close to a lot of outdoor activities. We would definitely recommend it and stay again.

Perfect!

Camp Pops ~n~ Beers is a perfect peaceful getaway for fishing, campfires and relaxing. We immediately felt like we were home. It was very clean and had everything you might need for cooking. The view was beautiful and the swing under the deck with netting over it....ahhhh. Location is great for a day trip to Lake Superior in L'Anse. Even found gluten-free pasties in Negaunee about a half hour away. Thank you for sharing your space with us. It was fabulous. Tammy was very accessible and helpful. We loved our stay.

Nice, well maintained home

Home had most everything we needed, except bath towels and wash cloths, which we knew in advance. Firewood was provided and the firepit area was nicely leveled with stone. Lot was large and private, had that "Up North" feel. Caught some bass and pike fishing from the shore. Over all, a very pleasant stay. Thank you.

Great place

Beautiful, well appointed home on a quiet lake with good fishing out front. The setting is such that even though there are neighbors you don’t see them or hear them. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The kitchen has all of the things you need to cook most anything and a Webber grill for all of us who like to grill. The only surprise was no towels, however, had I read the instructions more carefully it wouldn’t have been a surprise. When I texted owner she replied in less than 5 minutes. So very responsive and nice. In summary, I would rent it again and recommend it to friends. That’s why I gave it 5 stars…

Long Winter Weekend

Cabin was very clean and well furnished. With our larger group always felt like there was lots of room. Kids played a lot of ping pong and games. Owners were very quick to respond to questions and were able to give information about the surrounding area. Weather was beautiful for this time of year so we were able to spend a lot of time outdoors. Fishing was not great that weekend but the time spent with my family on the ice was priceless. I wish we could have spent a few more days there. I would recommend this cabin to my family and friends.

Perfect lake retreat

Our family of 9 had a wonderful stay at Camp Pops and Beers. The location was wonderful. We sat by the lakeside fire almost every day and night. It was great that firewood was provided. The house had plenty of room for all of us and lots of dishes and silverware. Recommend you visit Marquette and jump off black rock. We also enjoyed Painted Rocks National Lake Shore in Munising. Tammy was wonderful to work with and the rental was everything we expected and more. We have used VRBO many times for our vacations and this house is a five star if you are looking for a lakeside retreat. Thank you Tammy.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy

Host profile image
We are an active family of 4 from Wisconsin that loves the outdoors & searched throughout Northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for over 6 years for the perfect lakefront property. In the fall of 2005 we found Camp Pops-and-Beers located on the shores of beautiful Lake Michigamme and fell in love. The cottage was a bit rustic to put it mildly, but the property was absolutely spectacular. After purchasing it in the fall of 2005 we finished the construction of our new cottage in the winter of 2007. When finally completed our dream of having a family vacation spot in the north woods had been realized. Needless to say we are absolutely in love with the outdoor surroundings and all the amenities our cottage offers.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is only 12 years old and had the lower level updated in the summer of 2015 to add a 2nd bathroom & 4th bedroom. The house has all the luxuries of home. It is private, giving you the feeling of being secluded in the woods, but is located centrally in the Upper Peninsula so if you just want to sit by the lake, watch the kids swim & enjoy a beautiful sunset you can or if you want to do a day trip to nearby Marquette or Houghton/Hancock and discover a great restaurant, take a glass bottom boat tour or hike to a waterfall you can do that too. The choices at Camp Pops-and-Beers are endless. If you can picture yourself and your family doing any of these things then this is the dream vacation destination for you.

What makes this property unique

Camp Pops-and-Beers gives you unlimited access to any outdoor activity you can imagine. In the summer enjoy swimming, water skiing, wake boarding, tubing, hiking, fishing, kayaking, ATVing, & mountain biking. In the winter enjoy snowmobiling, snow shoeing, sledding, tubing, downhill or cross country skiing, & ice fishing.
