Bill B. Oct 25, 2024 01:29:02 AM

Summary: very convenient in all respects

Joan F. Oct 2, 2024 02:20:53 AM

Summary: This studio unit is so spacious, with a large living area, large dining area, good-sized kitchen with lots of cabinets and cooking/food prep needs, and large sleeping area all in one room, which is part of a large building on the owner’s 4 acre property. The only room not in the studio is a not-very-large bathroom. We never saw the hosts, but knew they were around if we needed. There was another little cottage which was also rented out for the weekend, but we never saw them either. The host was responsive to communication, and provided coffee pods, tea, English muffins, jam, cream, and yogurt. All in all, a good little getaway spot, which actually wasn’t all that little!

Emily S. Sep 16, 2024 08:18:02 PM

Summary: All the comforts of home in a convenient area to all things South Bend.

JENNIFER G. Sep 3, 2024 11:50:51 PM

Summary: Our stay at the Portage Lion was great. We had every thing we need and more for our visit to the area. We come to the area often as our family is there. Tim and Suzanne were great hosts. They had some breakfast foods in the fridge for us which was very nice. We will be remembering this place for our future visits to the area. My only complaint was we didn’t find it sooner.
