Quick Family trip

The paddle boards and canoes on the lake made the trip really fun for teenagers. Right on a nice lake so it’s shallow enough to explore and also swim out deeper and much warmer than Lake Michigan which is close enough to drive back and forth from easily.

Perfect weekend getaway

Had a great stay. Went up for the fall colors and checked out a couple lighthouses and was close to town. Since Mother Nature didn't cooperate, we didn't really use the lake or property.
