About Linda
Sisters- Friends-HOME! We grew up in this home, and it holds wonderful memories for both of us. We'd love to share it with you as well. Since we both live in the southeast part of the US now, we can't just let this vacation home sit without anyone enjoying it! Allow us to share some of our family heritage with you. The home we grew up in, on the lake we love, in the peaceful woods that give us the roots in our lives.
Linda purchased this House in 1972
Why Linda chose Frederic
This is our family estate home. Built by our parents in the early 1970's without borrowing, selling, or leaving a debt. A memorial boulder is at the side of the yard area commemorating their respect for the beautiful woods and lake area we still call 'Home'.
What makes this House unique
We love the beautiful walks along the lakeshore, swims in the crystal clear waters of the sand bottom lake, and fishing in a rowboat or right from the shore. There is always time for a hike through the woods, watching for deer and other wildlife at the stump with the salt block in it, or enjoying the squirrels and chipmunks frolicking through the tree branches. As a family we love game time, and movie time, a walk through the woods, a bike ride around the area, or row boat or canoe rides, puzzles, and meals together. Whether you want to read, and be quiet, go fishing, or play in the lake, there is something for you to do at Guthrie Pines. Bonfires in the evening are so relaxing, and it is always fun to make s'mores! Or just relaxing in front of the fireplace inside in the rocking chair, if that fits your style. We have added a fire pit by the lake with log stools or outdoor chairs around it for bon-fires and making s'mores, or even roasting your hot dogs! It's a beautiful view at night, and a great place for making memories with family and friends. Lots of firewood for this bonfire area is stacked nearby, or grab wood from the surrounding woods area. (Please DON'T use the inside fireplace supply, near the garage, for this bonfire pit.) Nearby state parks offer other interesting things to do, and the local festivities in the summer add great fun to the time "Up North". Nearby rivers (AuSable and Manistee) are famous for canoeing, and there are golf courses in abundance in the area. This a beautiful place to go. The summer fun on the lake and relaxing is so pleasant. The hardwood and evergreen forests surrounding the house, make the Fall a beautiful time of year to visit. Springtime bursts with new life in the woods as the leaves bud and turn green. Sorry-winter is unique, but the house is not able to be open during the winter. As a note-this house is in the woods. There may be an occasional mouse visiting. We do use mouse deterrents always.
