“Eulenhaus” or “Owl house”
A quiet retreat without the noises of humans. Off the main road in the middle of gorgeous cedars just 200 yards off the beaches of Lake Huron.
Waves rolling onto the beach, the eagles are soaring and the dear are looking right into your window. Sorry, no hunting on the property.
An outside fire pit and a porch on two sides of the house are ideal to hang out. Outside dining on a table that seats at least 10 under the front porch roof.
The heart of the home is the kitchen. The humongous island seats a lot of people.
Best place for playing cards, rolling the dice or mixing up a pitcher of whatever drink you like. Having business conferences, planing big business is not a problem with the high speed internet! Take your employees on a road trip and get there spirits rekindled.
A gorgeous stainless steel gas grill with 5 burners and a side burner for the “chef” assists with cocking and extends the kitchen to the outside.
In front of the House is a fire pit for wood or charcoal fires. More possibilities to cuddle up and enjoy s’mores.
A grate on top - and you bring the steaks!
