Coming from either city is about a two and a half hour to three hour drive on I94. It's a short distance to Highway 131. You'll find that this home/cottage is located in an area that is relaxing yet close to Portage/Kalamazoo. Portage Creek Bicentennial Park connects with Milham Park in Kalamazoo. The 3.6-mile Bicentennial Trail is open year-round for hiking. Adjacent to the park is The Celery Flats Interpretive Center and Historical Area, which features historic displays structures. The Hayloft Theatre and outdoor amphitheatre at Celery Flats host a Summer Entertainment Series from June through September. In Portage, the Overlander Bandshell at Central Park offers picnic areas and also features summer concerts. You will also find information about West Lake Nature Preserve and Bishop's Bog online.

Availability : The July 4th Weekend has been booked. We are now taking reservations for later August, September & October. Later summer and early fall on the lake is wonderful. The weather is usually warm, and autumn gives you that 'Life Is Good' feeling. check according to the schedule provided

Great Way to Spend the Weekend!

LAX Dad Naperville, IL
Review Submitted: July 19, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My son was in a lacrosse tournament in Kalamazoo and the thought of spending a summer weekend in a hotel room didn't really thrill me. Fortunately, I found Emily's Place a quaint cottage with a beautiful view. For the price of a hotel room, we had room for four, a wonderful deck, and a nice view of the lake. The mooning rising over the lake at night was breathtaking. Beyond that we had a fully equiped kitchen which allowed us to save money by cooking some of our meals in house. Next time I need to to go to KZoo, I'm staying here.
Owner's Response: Once you spend some time at "Emily's Place" you get it. It's a little bit of paradise. Check it out for yourself!
