Welcome to our house! Our two-storied house/with finished basement is made of cedar with a huge deck that overlooks the 35 acres.

A 10- to 15-minute walk along a marked, wooded path takes you to Lake Michigan beach and scenic views. We also live next door to Magoon Creek, Magoon Creek is a large natural recreation area with hiking and biking trails.
