After a year and a half of talking to lender after lender I was able to get a loan for a weekend getaway house in Michigan. I just got back from the closing and have agreed upon the price with the seller (a friend of mine).

Its actually a trailer on three and a half acres of land with the Paw Paw river going through it. I have been told that there are northerns and bass in it but I will have to see them to believe it.

Some pics.

First thing I am going to do is put in a hot tub and deck off the existing porch. Any other suggestions or tips for someone that is new to the world of septic systems and wells?

Yep, all three and a half acres. I still have to go through the formalities of getting the title to the land but in all respects the deal is closed. No set date for the housewarming but everyone is more than welcome to stop on by. (if they can help build a deck :wink: )

Yes, I'd thought so. But since you can offer us now a second tremendous place ... forgiven. :wink:

Thank You, this is a dominion I have been trying to get for a while so I will definitely hold onto it.

A load off my shoulders, and my friend agreed to the lower amount!

Congrats, sublime. Somehow, I don't think of it as your summer home, I think of it as our summer home.

Thanks, I have always lived in the big city but found this deal and had to jump on it, I am trying to rationalize a second automatic coffee maker for this place but can't quite do it.

No problem there Joe, the next A2K gathering might require sleeping bags and tents.

We should wait until he's got the new coffee maker plugged in.... or bring it as a housewarming gift.

Well, sublime, you're at the age now where you're building your
nest. Next thing is the manual coffeemaker resp. wife. Mr. Green
