Secluded home on 150 acres in Grand Travers Co., Fife Lake area.

My maternal grandparents purchased the property during the great depression. Their home in Eaton Rapids had been foreclosed when Oldsmobile had shuttered operations which left no income for my grandparents. They packed their 3 children and all they could fit into their 1926 Chevrolet and moved to this property having purchased it with the last $700 they had.
My mother had house constructed in 2002 adjacent to the orchard her father had established. Her childhood home yet exists as part of the property which is leased out privaty. The majority of the property is participating in the State Reforestation Program. Harvesting select timber occurs periodically in a managed manner which promotes diversity of vegetation, habitats for animals and birds and supports commercial enterprises in the wood products and logging sector locally in Northern Michigan.
