Secluded Retreat in Rural Michigan
We're ones to prefer to be off the beaten path, and this matched our expectations perfectly. Unique house had the feel of the berth of a larger yacht out on the lake, or a luxury RV. Perfectly detailed and outfitted, it was just perfect for silence and privacy.
While secluded, it was a very easy drive to many great locations like Charlevoix and Boyne City. A very short drive to park and ride that is so short it only takes a few minutes to reach the other side. Enjoy The Landing on the other side - great food and views of the lake.

Nicely appointed Tiny Home. Peaceful wooded area. Enjoyed morning coffee on the deck after 30 minute walks down the road or into the Nature Preserve 4 minute walk away. We hope to come back again soon!
