About the host
Hosted by Michelle Higbee
We are from Lansing -Grand Rapids area but love spending time in northern Michigan. We were originally looking for a place in the woods for snowmobiling and found a piece of Heaven on North Blue Lake and quickly became lake people too! We are looking forward to sharing our where we have enjoyed so many summers boating and swimming and winters snowmobiling.
