Taking US 31 from our place North, it's a wonderful scenic trip, should that fit into your vacation plans. We now offer sailing at both of our lovely lake front homes to add to your fun and joyful stay. If you cross country ski you cross country right from the cottage or drive 10 min. to the golf course and ski there or at the ski lodges that are not that far away. Snowmobile trails are all around us as are ATV trails. You can also rent ATVs and snowmobiles close by, one half hour north for the ATVs and 45 min. for snowmobiles.

You just need food, bait, your favorite suntan lotion, fishing pole and your best mate and you're all set for a great time. Oh, by the way if you like wild life, the deer come down to the lake to drink during the day. There are loons, geese, bald eagles, golden eagles, great blue herons, sand cranes, turtles, fox, coyotes, turkeys and lots of wood peckers, humming birds and more. Oh, one more thing. On a clear night you can see the milky way and billions of stars. As I stated earlier and ran out of room, you couldn't find a safer, quieter place for children as we have no traffic on our private drive and we have a nice large lawn maybe 60 x 40 x70 x 50 for the kids to play on and the entire lot is 100 x 200 plus another 25 ft x 100 ft of vacated attached land. Note: sail boat may be available?


Baldwin / Walhalla House Details

Golf: The Marquette Trails Golf Course is just 10 min. away and is one of the best golf courses around and the Big Star Lake Inn restaurant is right on 76th just across the street from the golf course. There are also many other good restaurants in Baldwin and north of Baldwin all the way to Ludington.

Fishing: This lake is connected to 2 others known as the chain of lakes and fishing is excellent, for bass, blue gill, perch, walleye, Lake trout & pike. All of the connecting lakes are great fishing as well. All in all there are at least 156 lakes in lake county. We also have several great fishing rivers and water rafting close by. By the way the home has a new well and the well water is excellent.

Hunting and Mushrooming. Snowmobiling: There is no better area to hunt turkey or deer than Baldwin. The mushroom hunting is also superb and is one of the best kept secrets about the area. Our home is very close to nicely groomed snowmobile trails or you can just go cross country through 1000's of acres of state and national forest. The snowmobiling and ATV trails are great and being in the snow belt we get plenty of snow when sometimes there is none down state.

Ski: There are many ski lodges in all directions from Baldwin and not too far away. When you return to the cottage you always have ice fishing to give you a fresh fish for dinner or just sit by the fireplace with a nice glass of wine for a nice quiet evening. You can also cross country ski right out the door and across the lake if you wish.

Golf: Golf is 10 min. away and many other golf courses can be found within an hour or less from the lake retreat.

Guest Book: We personally greet each new guest upon their arrival. We have made our home as nice as we can for our guests and continue to do so on a regular basis. We request all of our guests to leave the home exactly as nice as it was when you came in. We truly feel that we offer the best deal anywhere in Michigan when you look at everything we are supplying or furnishing especially when you consider a like new home, pontoon, gas, sailboat, 4 kayaks, canoe, volley ball horse shoes central air, 100ft. of sandy beech, boat dock, swim dock and much much more.

Other Activities: boating, kayaking, sailing, volley ball, wine tasting, Hiking, and Mushrooming, hunting, color tours, skiing, cross country, snow shoeing
