to see in the world.

Spirit
Vital Information
Coming up the winding drive to the heart of the woods, you will experience the energy of this beautiful place. We're located a mile inland from Lake Michigan between Saugatuck, famous for the arts, and South Haven, well-known for its Blueberry Festival. Our cabin/mobile home (yes, it's temporary) provides a large living/dining room with a wood stove, 5 bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen and 2 decks where we often have breakfast coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. Near the cabin are two cozy camping places with fire pits for those who wish to sleep under the stars. Also, Zeppi, our lovable English Mastiff, woman's best friend, calmly shares her own spirit at each weekend.
