There aren't many places to find the beauty and serenity of what is offered in the north western area of lower Michigan.  In these times of turmoil where else can one escape to and feel a relief of peace of mind.  With the many lakes, thousands of acres of forests and hundreds of miles of trails that can be enjoyed through out the year.  If you are looking for other things to do you will find most everything in this neck of the wood.  Besides fishing, swimming, boating and hunting there are festivals and car shows, garden clubs and wine tasting, arts and crafts to music and plays, hocky to base ball, GO Beach Bums.  Kalkaska, Grand Traverse, Antrim and all of the surrounding areas are filled with great people who will make you feel like long lost kin coming home.  Some of the attributes that the area is known for is Torch Lake which has been noted to be the third best lake in the world, Bear Lake which has the clearest water in Michigan, some of the best winery's in the country just to mention a few things.  Weather you are looking to retire in a great location or have that special get away for vacation and recreation.... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!
