About the host
Hosted by Melissa Middleton
I revel in nature and love for people who share their passion for it. I enjoy bringing the two together in ways that celebrate adventure, health, peace, and renewal. I am fortunate to have these two properties that provide a get away from ordinary life to renew body and soul, explore and appreciate the beauty of our two peninsulas and two great lakes – Michigan and Superior. Both houses offer a peaceful retreat like experience yet are in close proximity to vibrant fun communities, the best outdoor recreation in the upper great lakes, and a feeling of small scale sustainability from adjacent orchards and gardens. The houses are clean and inviting. Campfire locations with either sunset over Lake Michigan or the idyllic creak and pond at Two Waters await.
