The Getaway House

The Getaway House

For my husbands birthday I decided to rent The Getaway House in right next to Grand Junction Michigan. It was a quick drive (2 hours) from Chicago, and the perfect weekend getaway. The house is a tiny cabin in the woods that had everything you can possibly needed. I have highlighted some of the things that they cover on their website about the cabin:

There are 41 cabins on 79 private acres on this property and you are only a quick drive from South Haven, and the beach. We absolutely love Michigan and everything about it, so we were excited to be in a local area we love. We were about to enjoy the house as well as activities in the nearby local towns. On the way in we stopped at Ghost Isle Brewery for some beer and bites.

Our first night, we enjoyed some drinks and made some burgers for dinner over the fire. It was so peaceful and quiet. It was hostly a disconnection from the whole world with a sky full of stars. The next morning we had coffee in the cabin. We woke up to the birds chirping and and amazing view of the forest.

The next morning we rented ATVs from KJC ATV Rentals & Trail. This was my first time on an ATV and I had a blast. Our next stop was blueberry picking on a farm. We kind of overdosed on blueberries that day. That afternoon we went back to our house, and made hotdogs and have some local beers for lunch. We enjoyed the fire and made some s’mores for dessert.

That night we went into South Haven for dinner and drinks, after dinner we got to enjoy the beautiful sunset on the lake. What a perfect end the the most perfect day.

The next morning we had a slow morning, with some local donuts in our cabin that we had picked up the day before and just pure enjoyment with nature. We stopped back into town and got some ice-cream from the famous Sherman’s Dairy Bar.
