Bristol Lake vacation home is owned by 2 families: Ray and Sue Micham, and Dan and Janel Garno. Sue and Dan are sister and brother, in a family of 15 children. Our family has, for many years, rented a vacation property to get everyone together, once a year, for a reunion celebration. At a point, we decided it was time to start our journey of finding the right property and developing it into our families' 'own' place to gather. We stumbled upon this 6 acre parcel of dense trees and brush, of which we could not even see through to the lake. We wandered around until we saw glimpses of the beautiful, quiet lake peeking through. We were sold! Once we had purchased, we formulated a long-term plan, which included a series of property improvements, and eventually we built our home. It has been a long process of getting to where we are now, and starting in 2015, we decided to finish things up and start renting out for other families to enjoy as well. Ray and Sue have raised their 6 kids in Northwestern Ohio. Dan and Janel have raised their 6 kids in Southern Michigan. Our families stay very active, and have enjoyed fishing, catching turtles, frogs, and snakes, swimming, canoeing/kayaking, and water sports during the warm months at Bristol Lake, and ice skating, sledding and ski trips during the cold months. We also enjoy taking a 1 hour and 15 minute drive over to the charming town of Saugatuck, on the coast of Lake Michigan. It is our hope that your family will also make lots of good memories and experience the relaxation, peace, and fellowship that we have found, gathered at Bristol Lake.
