Things To Do: Whether you come just to relax or you like to be active, endless options for entertainment abound for the young and old alike: swimming, sun bathing, building sand castles or long walks along the water. Or you may prefer to venture out into the local area for commercial enterprises like jet skiing, parasailing, charter boat fishing, scuba diving or climbing Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes in Empire. Lake Michigan beckons with tons of fun just waiting to be found.

As the day winds down take in the spectacular sunset over Lake Michigan, then head down to the beach to toast marshmallows under the starry sky. Away from the bright city lights the sky comes alive with thousands of twinkling stars, and occasionally the Northern Lights will be visible!

Description Of Property: This home is furnished with antiques which gives it a cozy ambiance; the 8 ft farmhouse table comfortably seats ten or use the other small tables located in the dining area for extra seating. The house is set on a beautiful wooded dune with 19 steps leading from the large lighted parking area down to the house & another 18 steps takes you down to the bottom of a small dune; it takes about 25 small steps to get to the top of the dune & then it gently slopes down to the water. There is a wide spacious beach with a fire pit right on the beach.

The house is surrounded by woods just waiting to be explored. From the front deck which faces west, you have a spectacular view of North Manitou Island & North and South Fox Islands & you'll enjoy watching the freighters which constantly ply these waters.

We enjoyed the view on the beach so much that we took at least 55 pictures of the family which was 53 pictures & 25 minutes more than the children were promised!
Relatives from California, Texas, & all over the Great State of Michigan gathered for bonfires, cookouts, swimming, petoskey-stone-hunting, frisbee & movie-watching.
We will never forget the magnificient views of Lake Michigan or the wonderful time we had here together. Thank you for sharing your home with us---

Dear Laurie,
What can I say that has not already been said? But here I go:
Great week. Beautiful cottage. Gorgeous beach. Delightful weather. We spent many hours in the water and on the beach. No need to invent outings for paradise is here complete with white sand and sunsets.
The firepit was an evenings worth of singing, eating, laughing and talking.
Such a great place to get in shape with all the jogging, swimming, biking and hiking. We are rejuvenated and renewed and ready to take anything on!
Many many thanks for a beautiful charming, cozy spot.

Your house on the bluff is a gentle reminder of the charm of the past. And this charm is repeated, whether I gaze at the corner blessed with fascinating reminders or simply by opening a door with handles and levers from a distant past.
All is pleasing and goes well with nearby Northport, as well as my own thoughts of yester years.

There are a lot less mosquitos here and a really nice breeze. Arkansas isn't nearly as cool.

From the moments of driving through the woods & walking down the wooden steps & seeing through the screen porch... I knew one week wasn't going to be long enough!
Thank you for sharing your place. It's absolutely beautiful!

Jim & Laurie,
Thanks so much for letting us stay in your house. It's an amazing house and I enjoyed it alot. I'm so glad the Moellers let me come along on vacation with them and share this great experience. There were so many things to do in the water! I loved riding the Seadoo, it was scary at first but after I got the hang of it, it was a blast! Thanks for letting us borrow the movie "Glory Road", that was a great movie, I almost cried! I'm going to buy that movie when I get home. But, again, thanks alot for everything, hopefully I'll see you again.
