It’s been a very busy month, but we managed to squeeze in a weekend of serious mortaring. Now, the only thing that stands between us and a finished sauna is the gap at the top of the front wall!

Our Story
It was December 2019 when we found ourselves in St. Joseph County for the first time.
For nearly a year, we – me (Monika), my husband Nick, and my best friend Kris, had been searching for a place where we could build or rehab a cabin to use as a vacation home and, eventually, as a rental property. We wanted something on the waterfront, driving distance from Chicago, big enough to support multiple cabins (if things went well with the first one!), and secluded yet still close to shopping, dining, and recreation.
But after months of poring over real estate listings, driving all over Wisconsin and Michigan, studying plats, looking at flood maps, and trying to make sense of building codes, we were beginning to wonder if the place we were looking for simply didn’t exist.
Needing a break, Nick and I packed up our family and drove to a lake house we had just rented for a couple of nights near Three Rivers, Michigan. It was an unfamiliar place that we selected based on the sound, well-researched reason that pretty much everything else was booked solid right before New Year’s Eve.
