I haven’t had a calm and a stillness like this in a very, very long time. This place reminded me how to be grateful and present.

Sarah Sheppard – January 2020
I will miss the quiet, the footprints in the snow, the birdwatching, and the kindness. Northern Michigan is a sight to be seen in the winter. I am so happy to be leaving here with a new appreciation for nature, for solitude, and the creative process.

Elsabé Dixon – May 2019
