Welcome 2 the PROPERTY

The Great Lakes: Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. These five lakes contain 33% of the Earth's freshwater. Lake Michigan is the 3rd largest in area. It is the only Great Lake completely within the USA. The water in this lake appears to be clean and crisp. The dunes along it's western shore are incredible and the sunsets over Lake Michigan are magnificent!

Just think of the "polebarn" as a big ol' mess hall. It is a place where we cook and gather for meals. We also use it to hide from the elements and sleeping quarters for the not-so-brave. In the summer it provides nice relief from the sun and in the winter it takes all of your energy to keep the place warm. We like to think of it as a modest building in the middle of the woods, kind of like a "hunting shack"...

Tents, the way that the first explorers and the hardy live while visiting the property. Many moons ago there were social occassions where the property was blanketed with 10-30 tents. Historically the tents have lasted through many rough storms, tent raiders and being left standing for two months at a time. Where the tents are put is up to the creativity of the owner and have been just about every where on the property including the deep-dark-spooky-woods. Bring a tent, share a tent, just try it once!

Unfortunately our old flag pole was destroyed (by some unnamed person named dakipper). The original wooden flag pole was a historical marker. This new flag pole is built from recycled tent poles and unfortunately may attract lightning... Oops.

The Property now has a new and improved SKYLINE! Smiley Face & American Flags! The American Flag now flies on a new Northern White Cedar pole that was harvested from the Property (thanks).
