DEER everywhere! 🤎 Trios, pairs, and consistent visits at all times of day. We strolled the woods and there were bedding areas all over, too. They’re so fun to watch and they’ve now discovered the bird feeders, rearing-up to gain more seed, soon licking the suet, certainly, which was really awesome to see. Norman is very reactive to them and boisterous, while Vivienne silently, almost calculatingly, observes. Is your dog a fan of deer? 🐾🦌

Happy 2026! We're grateful for the chance to unwind next to Lake Superior and hope you, too, had a fantastic holiday season; recap in slides. As we begin this new year, we're feeling refreshed and rejuvenated after slowing down, enjoying quality time together, and with our dogs, Norman and Vivienne, plus sweet foster pup August. It's a balance between exploring about and embracing stillness, this break was just what we needed to reset. We’re ready to dive into the year ahead and wish you all the very best!

Last weekend at the cottage in review! Still absolutely in love with the custom corbels that Tony created; they’re beautiful and just perfect. The sky and Lake Superior never disappoint; add the dogs and it’s heaven on earth. The only sad thing about being there is having to leave. Happy Friday, have a great weekend! 🦌🐾🌅

A stunner of a sunrise and the doggos whose parents kindly captured it! Do you have a preference on your favorite sky? Supposedly sunrises are more subdued, but I find at the cottage they’re far more bold and dramatic vs the subdued, pastel rainbow pallet of a sunset. Thanks to our recent guests Sarah and Aaron for sharing! 👏🐾

This sunrise is simply too good!👌🏻

Getting soooo excited for all the spring bulbs to start blooming! Do you have a favorite?

The season’s cool mornings and evenings, coupled with comfortable mid-day temps and sunshine, are heavenly.. also perfect weather for a [mosquito-free 🦟] bonfire in the backyard while marveling at Lake Superior (really, this is fantastic any time of year!).

Picture of the dining area, as this light fixture garnered a lot of attention and inquiries in a recent story! She’s a beaut.💡

Since I was a kid I‘ve always loved fun, ‘fancy’ glasses no matter the occasion or liquid. Here’s a peek into one of the cupboards at the cottage to see some of the options available. The green ones (my favorite color, btw) being the latest addition from a local thrift store. Please share, do you pay attention to, or also enjoy, a fun, fancy glass?!
🥛🍺🍷🥃🥂🍸

Note: the ring-holding swan to the right of the sink was an original feature that we just love and kept (cabinets are original, too). It, unfortunately, suffered an injury while being removed to install the new window, but nothing a little glue couldn’t fix! 🦢💍

Where do you go, or what do you do, when life gets busy and you need to hit the brakes to slow it back down?

Personally, we’ve been living in the fast lane for several months now and we’re finally ready/able to reign it back in, prioritizing what’s most important, which means enjoying some time at the cottage. We used to get up monthly and it simply hasn’t been possible. I cannot wait to sit and stare at the water, walk the shoreline while the dogs explore and play, sit fireside, meander through the woods with the dogs darting about, and just to BE [there]. If we’re lucky, we’ll get to have some friends join for a night or two of cards and fun. Words cannot begin to express just how much I’m looking forward to this, it’ll recharge the batteries.🔋(Did you spot Norman?)

Anything we/I can share, or that you want to see, while we’re there?

When you travel, are you more:

- hunker down & hang-out where you are
- come prepared with a full plan & itinerary
- or possibly a mix of the two?

For cottage guests, we have a full ‘welcome guide’ that we’ve put together and share. It’s full of recommendations not only from us, but from previous guests and includes: restaurants, sight-seeing/hiking spots, a multitude of additional activity options nearby, apps (northern lights, ships, etc.), and more. We love hearing about guests who had every intention to get out and explore the area, but after they arrived they loved it so much that they just stayed right there.❣️

For us, we usually have a list of to-do tasks to chip away at around the cottage and the dogs are immediately running around to find and take in all the new smells outside. And, honestly, every time we turn down the driveway we’re so elated to be there that we tend to leave only when necessary!

It’s Friday!! I’m looking forward to watching the latest episode of ‘The Great British Baking Show’ while drinking a big cup of coffee in my pj’s tomorrow morning. A bonfire also sounds amazing with the fall temps returning. What are your weekend plans?

Here’s your reminder (and mine) to schedule those vacation days and spend the time with those you love in a place that you adore. Be like Norman, find a spot so comfy you take a lil’ snooze.
