When was the last time you took a stroll through the Interlochen Arts Academy and observed the international presence of students from all over the world; or stopped by Bud’s for an awesome cup of coffee, and opened you laptop from their internet cafĂ©?

Well, beautiful Green Lake in Interlochen, MI, is just one of many all-sports inland lakes that are worth a second look when traveling through this area.  Green Lake, with its sister Duck Lake, just across the road, is situated in the SW part of Grand Traverse County and is nestled within a mile of the Village of Interlochen’s main business area.  This pristine N MI inland lake is home to several species of fish such as: black bullhead, bluegill, brown bullhead, brown trout, cisco, coho salmon, lake trout, largemouth bass, northern pike, pumpkinseed sunfish, rock bass, smallmouth bass, walleye, yellow perch.

You can also expect to find a variety of affordable waterfront properties, from cabins/cottages, to pricier year-around home when considering a purchase on Green Lake.  With a home on Green Lake, you are also afforded the opportunity to listen to some of the tunes and sounds that are echoing from the Interlochen Art Academy.  In fact, on a popular summer eve, when bands and artist travel from all parts of the world to entertain, you could be taking in the sounds from your pontoon, waterside; and did I mention, there’s no charge to listen from your ‘toon while taking in a gorgeous sunset.  If you’re looking for an affordable cottage, that will let you enjoy fishing, international sounds of a renown Arts Academy, and a cup of mojo from Bud’s, why not consider this featured home as your next up-north get-away.

Bring Your Dog to Work Day!

While that may not technically be a holiday (though I think it should be!), Chad & Co at Homewaters were kind enough to accommodate my dog, Juni, in the office today when her grooming appointment had to be rescheduled.

Before we walked into work, we stopped at two different downtown Traverse City shops where Juni was not only welcomed but gushed over.  Then we passed the State Theatre where she was offered a treat as we walked by.  This got me thinking about another great aspect of living Up North: people here are dog-friendly.  Many dog owners, like myself, consider their pooch to be one of the family and I'm sure that I take the warm welcome Juni gets in most places we go to for granted (she has even roamed the aisles of Home Depot while we searched for the perfect grass seed!).  

So I hopped online and found that TC is the most dog-friendly city in Michigan.  No surprise there I guess, but an added bonus of the lifestyle this area offers, and a good reminder to ourselves about the different ways the TC area is a unique place to visit and live!
