Great Getaway

Property was well maintained. A long standing group of friends on their 20th annual guys getaway. The place was very nice. It was spacious with ample sleeping and a very bice bathroo. Excellent outdoor area for campfires and throwing the ball around. If we trek towards Detroit again, this will be our stop. Steve - thank you for everything!

Why they chose this property

I built this Lodge to display various hunting and fishing taxidermy work, and an overall up north lodge feeling, but in metro Detroit. It’s in a very private location backing up to woods. A 1700 acre park nearly boarders my property, and it’s close to everything you want to do.
