Up North or Western vibe prevails inside, with oak walls and vaulted oak ceilings and wainscoting. Features include a catwalk, and living room and family room woodstoves. (One is gas.)

We received lots of interest in this year-round home on 1.3 acres with 200+ feet along the Betsie River outside. Two stories, with living areas on the upper floor to catch the sunlight and a wraparound deck for the best overlook. Bedrooms on the lower level give you easy outdoor access in the a.m. and p.m., and you can put your work clothes right into the laundry when you come inside. Located on the river’s Serenity Bend, where you’ll find your peace and quiet paddling and fishing (river’s known for BIG fish), far away from the city. Updates include central air conditioning, a whole house generator and a two-car detached garage. Landscaped yard has sunny garden spots and shade for relaxing. The Betsie River is a state-designated Wild and Scenic River and it winds it way to Betsie Lake, near Elberta and Frankfort.
