    Our new baby "Lola" recently joined us. We will see if a Pit-Corgi mix can swim this coming summer!

    Best boating lake in your state.

    No offense to my fellow Michiganders but 9900 acre Higgins Lake with 21 miles of shoreline is clearer, cleaner, and has more space to "spread out" in the shallows and sandbars than most others. Other than July 4th, it is often very low key, with little wait times at the numerous public launches...

    Best boating lake in your state.

    I'm extremely partial to Higgins Lake, but it has zero restaurants or bars. The 4th of July weekend is a total "sh*&show" but otherwise not very crowded. The water is crystal clear (but cold), and has plenty of shallows to enjoy. But beware the "sunken island".

    Michigan water levels

    Jeff, who owns the dam on Houghton Lake? See my comments above, as a community we should have pressed the issue much harder than we did. NO ONE expected the dam to fail.

    Michigan water levels

    I was fortunate to have only minor damage to my home. Minor being just a few thousand dollars. Neighbors adjacent to me had 3' of water and mud in their walkout basement. Just a few homes north of me, those who were at lake level and not on a bluff lost everything. Keep in mind no one...

    Michigan water levels

    I sent you as much water as I could 2 years ago when Smallwood, Wixom and Sanford Lake emptied! :( On the bright side I sold the Sylvan and got a Bennington and now spend my days at Higgins Lake. The day prior to the dam breaching, the aftermath 3 days later, and today...
