Two sisters, Angie & Kimmy and their cousin Amanda pulled together to keep their grandparents land and dream home in the family to continue building the legacy they'd started and to share their space and vision for it with others.With nods to our grandparents, the local history and each of our personalities and interests, our retreats are designed with intention to be a space for quiet relaxation, recovery and growth. The 10 acre property was purchased by their grandparents in the 70's as vacant land where they designed and built their dream home and pond on the front two acres.Learn more about this land:The nearby towns of Armada, Richmond, Memphis & Romeo are rich in history from their roots in our farming communities, historic railroad and before them, our Native American's use of the land. Each town offering a unique and charming Main Street full of locally owned shops and restaurants focused on supporting their local community. A favorite and the nearest business to our property is Strikers, walkable from your campsite, and offering great food, a full bar, billiards, bowling, darts, special events and fun warm conversation.About the space: Angie, her sister Kimmy & cousin Amanda pulled together to keep their grandparents land and dream home in the family; to continue building the legacy and to share their space and vision for it with others.With respect to our grandparents, neighbors, local history and businesses; through our teams unique personalities and interests, our retreats are designed with intention to be a space for quiet relaxation, recovery and growth. The 10 acre property was purchased by their grandparents in the 70's as vacant land where they designed and built their dream home and pond on the front two acres. While you'll drive through it to access the back 8 acres, the front two acres are currently leased to a long term tenant who isn't to be disturbed.Each year we're improving the property and adding amenities. We currently have 4 individual van or tent camping sites and a larger community site that could accommodate up to 3 small RV's, vans or up to 22' trailers. We're in the process of building a 200 sqft structure to be the "lounge" common area hangout next to the community fire pit. Most vehicles with normal ground clearance should be able to access without issue. Extended heavy rain has created mud in the past at the entrance where 4x4 could be necessary to get in and out after a storm. Drivable roads and camp areas on back 8 acres were bushes cleared about a year ago. While its mostly grass now, there are still short, sticks/roots sticking out in some areas where they haven't been cleared or decomposed yet but still comfortable to drive or walk.
