Empire Therapy-AC/GameRoom/Fireplace/HotTub

Perfect launching pad for all your Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City area adventures! Less than 30 min. to ski Crystal! This gorgeous post and beam frame was built from 100-year-old red pine from the Torch Lake area by master log home builders. This home has a beautiful wood fireplace and the floors are hardwood: black locust, cherry, red oak, white oak, and black walnut. The house has radiant heat in the floors to make these floors a pleasure to walk in the winter even without socks!

Your own private getaway is off the beaten path, yet close to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes. Enjoy this secluded home while relaxing on the large wrap around porch with forest views!

You will have the entire house/property to yourself!

This home features our favorite mattresses, our favorite 5 piece sectional leather reclining couch, and our favorite ping pong table! Relax on the wrap around porch with secluded forest views. Enjoy the 9' Brunswick pool table and brand new ping pong table in game room.
