"We enjoyed our stay at Danielle and Craig's place in Bellaire, MI. The accommodations were as described and the house has lovely scenery and quick access to Schuss Mountain trails and hills access. Super close to downtown Bellaire and close to Torch Lake to enjoy in the summer. We had a great girls weekend and would recommend staying here."
"This place was absolutely perfect for a ski weekend for my family. Fantastic location right in the middle of Shanty Creek resort area, but the homes are spread out so it's also very peaceful in a pretty wooded setting. Plenty of beds, super clean bathrooms and linens, and wonderfully cozy fireplace to retreat to after skiing. The kids loved that we had access to the resort pools as well. Will definitely have to come back during golf season!"
"A wonderful family vacation of 3 generations! Danielle was extremely responsive to all of our questions. The place was spotless and very well stocked. Beds were comfortable. There's such a broad range of things to do, including enjoying boating on Intermediate and Torch Lakes, downtown Bellaire and Alden for shopping and Shorts Brewery, and enjoying the indoor and outdoor pools, quiet strolls in the early morning and evening, and ordering in amazing pizza from BC's on our first night after traveling and settling in. The evenings were spent around the coze campfire and game nights."

About the host
Hosted by Danielle & Craig Buschmann
Hi, we’re Danielle and Craig Buschmann and we’re excited to share our journey with you!
While the start of our real estate career definitely wasn’t something we anticipated during the initial aftermath of a lightning strike, we quickly learned how much we loved watching a home transform through a major rehab, and it became our gateway into real estate investing. After experiencing the process of a live-in flip, our family moved to Plymouth, MI where we currently reside today. After investing over $100K to transform our primary residence into our dream home, we decided it was time to start investing in rental properties to transform our passion for other people.
In 2019, we purchased our first rental property. Our journey quickly escalated and over the course of 5 years, we invested in over $6M+ in real estate through investment properties in our local Southeast Michigan and Northern Michigan communities. In 2020 Danielle also became a licensed realtor in order to better support our real estate dreams.
Recently, Danielle resigned from her 15-year career in tech to pursue a career in real estate full-time and help friends & family find their dream homes. We currently self-manage our local rental properties ourselves and truly enjoy getting to know all of our tenants on a personal level. By believing that a person’s home is at the center of their lives and a place that should bring families and friends together, we love being even a small part of that happiness for our tenants and clients.
